We’re often left out of the conversation surrounding sexuality and desire, unless it’s a topic involving fetishism. When we ‘dare’ go out in public, we’re stared at, laughed at, and people take secret photos of us to laugh at on the internet. When we post up photos of our bodies in anything less than a slip dress, we’re told we are ‘promoting obesity’ and ‘posting photos online for attention’. I’m tired of it. Plus sized bodies deserved to be normalised in ALL areas, and not just acceptably fat people. Not just white or whitepassing fat people. Not just fat women that carry weight in all the ‘good’ areas. All bodies. All the time. ——— We shouldn’t have to be scared of looking like everyone else for fear of someone taking secret photos of us. We should be able to refer to our bodies as attractive and sexy without feeling embarrassed or ashamed.



We need to continue to challenge and change the narrative of what is considered sexy and attractive. We need to upset the established order (a Joker quote, BUT IT APPLIES) and completely dismantle the status who of what bodies are ‘supposed’ to look like. ______ I’m tired of living in a world where certain bodies are dehumanised, shamed, humiliated and policed for daring to live unapologetically. For daring to wear a bikini or nice underwear. For daring to just exist in general. I’m tired of having to justify my existence. At this point, it may as well be a full time job with benefits and 38 days holiday. We deserve to just...exist in peace. Leave us alone. Please. Rant courtesy of some fat shaming BS I saw on Twitter earlier. x _______ Underwear - @gabifresh X @playfulpromises #gabifreshxplayfulpromises

This post was posted last year,I am very happy to say the world has adjusted and Plus Size Modeling is a thing now,we love how confident most plus size woman are these days, I am seeing a lot of body positivity these days, as Much as plus size is a cotegory for plus size women I still see segrigation, this singles them out, if being singled out so the stand on they on is what they want then we can continue calling them Plus size Models but I think it is time to stop singling them out If we talking models lets talk models, size should not be a boundry. @upcoming_mag
