A "Big" Issue that Should Be a Non-Issue

This was my response to a discussion on a Facebook group about how "Big Beautiful Women" (aka "phat or thick girls") are not "Curvy." Really. What a bunch of damn nonsense! Now big girls of different builds are going to start hating on each other? Do we not have things hard enough as it is in this society that blatantly loathes larger people?

I am just SO. BLOODY. TIRED. of women hating one another and getting into virtual cat fights. "If you're built like this you can't be curvy." "BBW is not the same as curvy."
"Fat is disgusting." "Skinny girls aren't feminine." We all need to get over this! It's dreadful. It is hard enough being a woman in today's world, particularly if you have even an ounce of fat on your body anywhere. There is enough hate from the media without us perpetuating it amongst ourselves.
I always did rather consider myself "curvy" although I am a size 18, which I guess according to you-all would make me a "BBW" and not curvy. Whatever. I'm just a woman. I'm too damn old and tired to fight about it any longer.

We need to stand together, like sisters. Not get into bitch-fights. Being born in the 1960's, I'm a bit of an old-school feminist. Even back in the 1980's it was mostly about earning the right to be treated with equal respect and dignity. I've seen more and more of this trend towards women trying to scratch each other's eyes out these days--over the pettiest things--and it is very distressing to me. Ladies, we still only earn 70 cents for every dollar men earn. It doesn't matter what size we are!
