Whole New World

I have just stumbled upon the world of Fat Acceptance blogs. YANYB is not one of them, nor does it want to be. What is your view on the fat acceptance movement? Don’t know what it is? Look it up. Read up on Big Fat Deal and some Kate Harding. Extensive list here.

I do love the mentality of acceptance. However, I don’t like the way many women are going about this. It’s not about equality, but about “Fat power! Skinnies can kiss my ass!” Yeah, pear shapes rule, but so do stick shapes, and so do stereotypical American beauty pageant shapes. It’s all good.
