Paradigm shift
Okay, there is a change in the wind.
People are starting conversations about being 'fat affirming', and there's this funny little Brit bopper who sings that 'big girls are beautiful', while walking ahead of a cheerful, colourful set of happy fat women through the deathly boring centre of what I was assured is Croydon. And he's not being denigrating or taking the Mickey. It's a fun summer song.
You know, sadness, self-loathing, low self-worth and all the rest of the emo bag of tricks makes people feel much heavier than actual pounds and stones and kilos.
Hey, we can hop and skip dance and cheer, and sucks to the rest of the world. The rest is technicalities.-
