“I Wore a Bikini and Nothing Happened”
“The reason these people do not want to see a fat body in a bikini is because traditionally, that garment is something a woman earns by proving herself attractive enough to exist. If fat women begin wearing them without shame or fear, what’s next? Will they have self-esteem? Will they demand respect? Then what will keep them in their proper place? How would conventionally attractive people judge them?”
I feel like there are a lot of things like this, where you can only do them once you have proven that you are legit enough to exist. Like, calling yourself a scientist.
Does it have to do with class? I think it might have to do with class…
