The whole “fatshion” idea is kind of stupid.

Fashion is not the exclusive domain of “”skinny”” people, and by calling fashion for “plus-sized” people ‘fatshion,’ you’re actually promoting size discrimination by intentionally ostracising yourself from what you believe to be “normal fashion” for “normal”  (skinny) people

No matter what, it’s still fashion, regardless of the size of the person wearing it. 

There’s always one, you know?

That’s news to me. So how is it I can’t get my clothes at Aeropostale or Hollister?  Why is it that there are only three stores in my town of 200,000 that carry my size? And two of them are out of my price range.

No. We’re creating something for ourselves. Because we want to love our bodies and we want to dress them as we feel fit, not by societies standards. Because we want a supportive community. Because I want to look at people who look like me and think “If they can rock it, so can I.”

I’m not sorry if our FATshion hurts your feefees.  And I’m not sorry I’m a fatshionista.  So you can take your hurt thin privileged self out of our business and don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya.

Yes, it was fat people who intentionally ostracized themselves from the mainstream. Clearly, we are the architects of our own marginalization. I mean, it couldn’t possibly be that we created our own spaces and vocabulary in reaction to being shut out of “normal” spaces. What a silly suggestion.

At least this person didn’t go the whole 9 yards and accuse fatshionistas of discriminating against thin people.
