The RedEye ran a series of fat acceptance articles in today's paper. I was very happy to be interviewed for one, can you guess which?
Fat vs. Fiction
"Bloggers are challenging what healthy means, embracing their weight in growing online niche"
Kate Harding and Paul from Big Fat Blog are in this one and they're as eloquent as always. Meme Roth... well, she's consistent. Does she have a Bat Phone or something?
Plus-size phat fashion
"Online, more choices for plus-size women abound."
If you guessed that I was quoted in this one, you were right.
The F-word
"Some welcome the term 'fat'"
With big, fat, open arms!



Yay! Fat fashion is getting some props! Congrats on the article.

That would be the Anti-Fat Phone.

She senses fat people feeling unashamed and puts on her little cape. Time to save the day!
