Body Positivity - Blog Posts
stop making fun of bad people for being fat or having small dicks or being socially awkward or whatever else you seem to think is a fair target. none of that shit has anything to do with why theyre bad. i don’t care if a nazi has a stutter or a terf has thinning hair or whatever. at best youre missing the point, at worst your comments are gonna hurt vulnerable people more than they will ever affect the shitty person you’re mocking. why are you so attached to these bullshit standards anyway?
I’m that fat girl 💋💕
every time a fat girl wears a shirt that shows her belly an angel gets their wings reblog if you agree

Anyone who is all prissy about Annabeth's actor not being white should also be at LEAST as angry about Clarisse not being plus size.
Personally I love Leah as Annabeth, the first time I saw her on screen I just went "oh, there she is." My ONLY comment about her is that she seems to be shorter than Walker (Percy) but when working with young actors their heights change fast as fuck so I get it. That fact also changes throughout the books so it isn't really that important.
All in all I think the casting is great, but I have noticed one thing I don't really see anyone talking about.
Where are all the plus size characters? In the books Gabe, Dionysus and Clarisse are all described as plus size.
I can understand Gabe, cause le'ts be honest here, the only reason he is described as fat is so that we'll think he's lazy and ugly. But for Clarisse especially I feel like it removes an important part of her character
I always saw myself in Clarisse. Here's a girl who isn't conventionally attractive, knows it, but doesn't let it bother her. She also ends up with a girlfriend from the Aphrodite cabin, who is described as very beautiful (unless I remember wrongly). And their relationship just shows that two people can be in a relationship, even though they are vastly different "numbers" on the "conventional attractiveness scale" Clarisse IS a bully in the books, but she does have quite a lot of developement, so even though her size in the beginning is used to show her as being scary, I feel like she, throughout the books, moves away from that. (This is in no way any hate to the actress, I do think she plays the character really well, but she is extremely conventionally attractive)
As for mr. D, to be fair, his size isn't really all that relevant to the character, and there is (according to the wiki) a possibility that his camp half-blood form is not his REAL form.
But the fact all three of these characters are no longer plus size in the TV-show is something that bothers me, especially Clarisse.
Would love to hear other people's opinions on this!
(Direct book descriptions:
Gabe: "Gabe had put on weight. He looked like a tuskless walrus in thrift-store clothes."
Mr. D: "The man facing me was small, but porky. ... He looked like those paintings of baby angels"
Clarisse: "She wore a size XXXL Camp Half-Blood tshirt" also described several times just as "the big girl")
Disability body positivity
Am I the only one who gets a little annoyed with the body positivity phrases ‘You are not your body’? Like yes I am my body. My body dictates everything I do and everywhere I go and how I experience life. Its ok that I have these problems and I’ll love my body anyway but I want people to stop telling me that I can love myself in spite of my body. I am my disabilities they define me but its ok to love and celebrate my disabilities. I know this is something abled people probably don’t think about too much but it feels patronizing.
I dint understand why some people get so upset about girls having body hair? Like we’re human too thank you...
