A lot of the time when I read fatshionista I'm either thinking "Why are you lying about your size/weight? What's the point?" or "Where's the fat? You're not fat."

Yeah. I get what you mean. She's definitely affected by a sizist society, just in a different way. And at least she's fat posi, right?

But then part of me says "but still... NOT FAT. WTF?" It feels like a fine line between being an ally & co-opting a movement. When it comes to fatshionista it could be "I'm kinda chubby & I have cute clothes; tell me I look cute!" sort of insta-internet self-gratification.
