The bottom line is that there’s this pervasive feeling that fat girls aren’t supposed to feel sexy, and that needs to change. It’s something plus size women are constantly messaged—either overtly or subconsciously—and that shows in a lack of options for lingerie. It all ladders back up to giving women a choice of doing what we want with our bodies, regardless of our size, and making it normal to see plus size women in lingerie on TV, on billboards, and on Instagram is a great place to start.

Can you imagine how much pain they must be in, and how much they must hate themselves, in order to get to a point where the only thing they can do with it is go and throw it at a stranger? If you realize where your own judgments about other people come from, when you realize at that moment that you’re going, ‘Oh, that bitch at work’… You realize that is coming from a place of your own anger about yourself, and things in your own life. Then you realize this is true of everybody else.
