Comment on Plus Size Couple Unscripted: Lessons from 15 Years of Love by Bill Fabrey

These pieces are all timely, and I enjoyed reading them. Actually, there is a shortage of intelligent writing involving couples that are both plus-sized (or fat, if you are a size-acceptance activist like myself!)

I believe that the problem of plus-size discrimination based solely on the number of square inches of skin has been verified. I remember reading about a community that objected to a swimsuit photo of a fat model in a store window, that thought nothing of an average size model in a bathing suit that was far more revealing than the fat model, but showed less actual skin area, due to the fact that the model was slender. That happened in Long Island, NY in the 1970’s! I am sure that it is commonplace. Unfortunately, whomever programmed the AI used by Meta must have fallen into the same trap.

Also, I believe that much of the stigmatization of fat people is due to esthetics–some people feel threatened when they see a person who takes up more space, and more threatened if the person they are looking at are conventionally attractive, except for being a larger-sized version!

Thank you so much for this, I’m taking my kids to Disney for the first time, and I have been literally starving myself to be able to get on the rides with them, I am currently at a size 18/20 so I think I should be just fine!!

This has been helpful. Though I wish you could go more in depth about the attractions that are good for plus size, for the other parks like you did for Magic Kingdom. 🙂

Thank you so much for this article. I went to both parks two years ago with my family and I was still a big size but I was not sure if I would still be able to fit on the rides like I was able to 2 years ago. Do you have any ideas for the Goofy’s Sky school and the roller coaster scream? I am a size 2X large in clothing and I was able to fit on the rides last time but I am not sure about this time.

Hi, I have large thighs & I’m curious about some of the rides that have lap belts (7 dwarfs mine train, BTMR, barnstormer, etc). Would it be possible or safe to ride with my grandkids, ages 6 & 9? I don’t want them to ride alone & their dad could only ride with one at a time. I’d love to ride with them but of course want them to be safe above anything else. Everything I’ve read or watched has said “ride alone” but that’s not what I’m needing to know about.
