Just saw a doll I know is like 150 lbs refer to herself as "chubby" and i think we all need to take a step back, breath and give every trans woman a hug

I exist in the wonderful liminal space where people tell me I'm not fat and then I go to the doctor and can't get healthcare because I'm clinically obese and nobody makes clothes in my size because plus size hangs off and normal doesn't fit.
Im sorry ive been there and it sucks and can wreck your mental health. Sending many hugs
Projecting huge "please get swallowed by a sinkhole and die"-thoughts to any medical provider that withholds or biases care based on BMI I'm sorry they're doing that to you, it's bullshit
I do feel a little like im stealing valor when I complain about trans fatphobia and its effects ever since ive lost weight, but I still have all the mental scars that came from being fat and trans for much of my life
Also im still not exactly a twig, im just at a weight a lot of people, trans included, consider "tolerable"
I’m fat and trans and more often than not I feel fetishized for my weight or ignored outright for not being the right kind of pretty. It’s so, so rare that I feel like people actually think I’m attractive instead of a fetish they can indulge in.
Trans woman love stuff from the 90s: shoegaze, the Simpsons, thinking anyone whose ribs and vertebrae you can't count is fat, tank girl,,,
Watching a woman of the fiona apple phenotype call herself fat and having to sit down
We’re all still psychically harmed by society calling Drew Barrymore and Alicia Silverstone “plus sized” in the 90’s
Terrible decade. Dee-lite not included
Pretty much. I feel like it was better than the 1980’s but that’s not a high bar to clear
Fatphobia is a bitch, and fuck if so many tgirls don't see the ultimate goal of transition as "becoming skinny"
My body shame ironically started when I grew tits and got teased for having big nipples. Both assets now, but humiliating when I was a child
Can't believed we're gatkeeping being chubby now 😩. I've got a bit of tummy fat! Let me be chubby chubby women are gorgeous!
They are i love em. Call yourself whatever. I just think we all as a community have pretty fucked(by society)ideas of what a skinny body or a fat body actually looks like.
All people come in all shapes, sizes, colors, and textures including trans women. They’re all capable of beauty, because beauty is mostly attitude. That light shines from inside and it starts with self-acceptance.
stolen valor
You should able to call yourself chubby if you HAD to wear sweat pants in Jr high
i'm actualy ttf (twink to fat)
I appreciate your devotion. I was bear to doll
