Today's Fat Girl Rant
If I see ONE MORE teeny tiny fashion lady make a post titled something like:
“DIY UGLY THRIFTED CLOTHES INTO FASHIONABLE NEW OUTFITS”
And step one involves buying a plus sized garment from a thrift store when you yourself are a teeny tiny person? (“Buy something as big as you can find, for seam allowances”)
And step two involves tearing that garment asunder in order to “re-purpose” that garment into something “fashionable”?
SERIOUSLY??? Do you know how HARD it is for us to find clothes in our size?
Do you have any idea how RARE it is to find clothes to fit a big body in a NORMAL STORE, at any price??
Do you understand that most plus sized women MAKE LESS MONEY than you and even if there were options at the mall for them, they couldn’t afford to shop there?
That what might look like an “ugly sack that no one would wear anyway” might just FIT OUR BODIES, and I dunno? Actually look fine?
DON’T YOU REALIZE YOU COULD GO TO A STORE, AND JUST LIKE, BUY A NEW THING?? IN YOUR SIZE, AS EASY AS ANY FUCKING BREATHING?
And your fun DIY project is actually your way of exercising enormous privilege, LITERALLY TAKING THE CLOTHES FROM OFF OUR BACKS?
OH YOU MEAN THIS NEVER OCCURRED TO YOU???
You just thought turning a muumuu into something “cool” would be a “fun challenge”?? You thought it’d be ok?
Did it ever occur to you that some women NEED those fucking muumuus, in tact, thank you very fucking much?
NO OF COURSE YOU DIDN’T
Enjoy your idiot craft dress. I hope you forget a pin and it stabs you right in the labia.
lmao let people enjoy things
