Dear thin people:
Don’t talk over or correct fat people when we talk about ourselves or our struggles. If we call ourselves fat, for example, don’t correct us by telling us we aren’t fat. If we call out fatphobia in a specific community (like a fandom or the vegan community, for example), don’t correct us by telling us not everyone in the community is like that.
Listen to us, listen to what we are saying, listen to the points we are making, and learn. You are not fat. Listen to the people who are.
