The infamous comeback line “Say It To My Face” has been ramping in society as long as we remember, but as a proud member of the Curve Committee, we’re here to tell you Is it… the same it’s not Applicable when talking to fully equipped people. This is a list of terms that are not compliments to plus-size women.
As the only (visible) “overweight” person in a social environment, there is always this implicit sense of sympathy from an individual who has not read the room Their hidden fat phobia. Suddenly, we are considered to be a smaller sized charity case, hunger for unprovoked security and forced generosity. Unpleasantly, the backhand bleeds through all the unfiltered words.
The truth is… Big women are human too, and there is no special science about communicating with us or the special science needed to make us feel safe with the right to occupy space. We’ve let things slide too long, but not everyone is sitting maliciously, and no matter how bright our bodies are, we can hold our pearls and tell us how obese we are. I know I’m waiting for the perfect time to communicate I’m wrong. So I decided to use this as a teaching moment instead.
These are statements that should not be confused with affection, and are so tasteless that they are not compliments from plus-size women.
Terms not complimentary to plus-sized women And it’s uncomfortable to listen
1. Juicy
It is “juicy” that holds the top spot next to “BBW”. Now we know what you’re probably thinking. From rhinestone sweatsuits to crossbody bags, this popular phrase flaunted the game in the early 2000s. However, its use is widely seen as a form of sexualization in luxury communities. For this reason, many of us cling to when others are jumping on the DMS and using it to “cheate.” Plus, chubby women push through the story of being considered fantasy and fetishized objects.
2. Butterball
If you were Plump The girl on the block, certainly, you’ve heard “butterball.” While most people see it as a way to show praise, calling an adult (basically) a turkey can be seen as offensive. With every nickname, we all have different sensitivity levels, but ask local sensual beauty how she felt about being called “butterball” in her 20s and 30s And you might raise an eyebrow.
3. Thick monkey
“Chunky Monkey” is not a compliment to a plus-sized woman. It’s not only childish, it’s negative. It’s not considered a bad thing to be called just thick, but attaching a “monkey” feed to fat food means that fat people are comparable to animal monsters. Take it from us and add this to our “pet name” list plus sized loved ones are not the wisest, even if it was (probably) done from worship.
4. Beautiful face
Even if you say “You have a pretty face,” you’re on par with “You’re cute for a big girl.” When you say such things, it seems as if you imply that our value is only around the neck, but this is wrong. Plus-sized girls are more than just “adorable” cheeks and a cute smile. Instead of highlighting specific features that meet socially accepted standards, normalize to let someone know that they are clean.
5. Confidence
While a woman’s biggest asset is certainly her self-esteem, it’s (although it’s not controversial) that she throws “confidence” in a fluffy way every time she sees her accepting the skin she is in, it’s a side-by-side comment is. For many people, it comes out as an insult when they sports a bikini (just like other people bump into the beach or have fun in the sun), and how much they ” You can tell them you’re asked if you love your self-confidence (even worse) how they are confident in wearing “something like that.”
6. Big Sexy
If “big sexy” is in the vocabulary, remove it and try again. It sounds great, but it’s not a compliment for plus-sized women. Everyone wants to feel sexy Of course, in this lifetime, sexy doesn’t have a specific weight, and there’s no need to emphasize it on a person’s body type. As you may know, the term is well known in its book on men’s pickup lines. We, people, vote that it’s gone…quickly.
Our goal at this TCF is to educate those who are not involved in this era of body-positive space. Being a big girl in a small world has its challenges, but setting the boundary line as a winding cutie is a must. Not everyone else likes us, but… they respect us. We don’t give them any other options.
