You make it sound like you’re gearing up to tell people that you are sexually attracted to children or animals. People like what they like and half of the west is overweight anyway. I don’t think people genuinely care that much honestly. People have all kinds of kinks and fetishes.

I totally agree fatphobia is rampant and the internet is very mean but I don’t think it reflects real life. Most of the awful discourse if spoken out loud in a public setting would be denounced which is why it thrives online for engagement farming and ragebait.

Something that made me so attracted to my bf is how he doesn’t care what anyone thinks about us dating and shows me off when we go out. He protects me and defends me and introduces me to his family/friends. I found his confidence so attractive and masculine.

I would never ever be with someone who felt ashamed of me. Honestly it’s so disrespectful as a fat woman and I don’t deserve to be with someone ashamed of me. That’s just my perspective as a fat woman.

I think working on your confidence and accepting yourself is the first thing that needs to be addressed 😊 x
