As a plus-size woman, I hate when plus-size ppl get on the Internet and just embarrass themselves, like their clothes be all torn and they eat so disgustingly. And I’m like “Why?” Like you just took us 10 steps backwards. We already get grouped as one.

i really wish people would be mature enough to understand that plus-sized people aren’t a monolith instead of kicking their heels every time they see one that feeds their conformation-bias

yeah that’s the issue with stereotypes… even if just one out of a hundred fits the stereotype, people will have the confirmation bias and think “all of this group of people are like that,” while ignoring the 99% who didn’t fit it 😭

Exactly, like the whole thing where people are plus size because of food, all because they see some plus-size people eat large amounts of food and then gain an excessive amount of weight, like no, it’s not like that for every plus-size person.
