FAT AND FOXY
For week seven I thought I’d take us to seventh heaven (you lucky people!) Fat women are told every day that we are not sexy and that sexiness is reserved for those who fit into societies ideal when wearing a slinky nightie or goddess approved day-wear. Where society is concerned, fatness is seen either as a joke, or as a fetish, but my god I bet there are a few people out there who would disagree with that. But what most people don’t realise, is that sexiness relies more on the internal feelings you have about your body than outside expression, it’s about about how you perceive your own attractiveness and how your confidence shines through. You CAN be fat and foxy, you CAN be fat and fierce, and what’s more – you CAN be fat and sexy. As if I needed any more proof, here are some babes doing just that…

Hey Fran.
Firstly, so proud of you! This isn’t news to me, I “worked it out” (haha, that makes me sound like a creeper, I’m not honest) from your IG and FB a while a go. I hate that you lost friends when you came out. Seriously….just because you’re a lesbian, that means you’re automatically going to fancy the pants off all your female friends? Come on *rolls eyes*
I’m commenting for a selfish reason as well as to lend your my support. Reading this has prompted me to want to share, I hope you don’t mind. I am bisexual, and also poly. I am not public with it, mostly because of my husband’s family. I’m not so bothered about my own; I am estranged from my parents. My sister knows and is awesome. My brothers don’t, wouldn’t “get it” and would probably make remarks but wouldn’t make my life difficult. But Michael’s mother reacted very badly when he told her he was poly and it’s put him off sharing with anyone else. And by extension and not wanting to make life awkward for him, I’m not going to opening come out anymore.
I want to come out as bi, but then that would prompt the questions of “but how do you know, you’ve been with Michael for 13 years!” which would then lead to “well, you see as well as being in a relationship with him, I had a girlfriend for 2 years, so *that’s* how I know…” and so it would get messy. The two for me are linked.
So yeah. Sorry to spew babe.
Once again, well done to you! So much love to you ❤️
