I would get these terrible stress headaches in college, and I would scream at my roommates to be quite. They were idiots. And loud. They were loud idiots. You know, I should call them. To find out whatâs become of themâhow theyâre doing, you know? Cause, you need to keep in touch and find out whatâs become of the people who were once in your life, that way you can measure your life against their life and see who WON. And I am WAY ahead!

Abercrombie & Fitch Refuses To Make Clothes For Large Women
Abercrombie & Fitch Refuses To Make Clothes For Large Women
Abercrombie and Fitch has decided that anyone over a size 10 jean isnât sexy enough for their clothing line, and doesnât want them shopping in their stores and sullying their clothes. They decided to only hire good looking people so that only good looking people will come into their store.
âItâs almost everything. Thatâs why we hire good-looking people in our stores. Because good-looking people attract other good-looking people, and we want to market to cool, good-looking people. We donât market to anyone other than that,â
That is an actual quote from their CEO Mike Jeffries.
I know I donât have a lot of followers but this is something that isnât right. Theyâre excluding people from being able to buy their clothes and they make it seem like it isnât okay for people to be slightly chubbier or bigger than the average âcool kidâ to own their clothes. This is something that shouldnât be allowed to happen.
Iâve seen tumblr do some amazing things, and this place would be even more amazing to me if we were somehow able to show the douchebag who runs this company that his elitist, skinny-people only attitude ISNâT okay, and that we wonât stand for it.
Another quote from the article by Jeffries:
âIn every school there are the cool and popular kids, and then there are the not-so-cool kids. Candidly, we go after the cool kids. We go after the attractive all-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends. A lot of people donât belong [in our clothes], and they canât belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely.â
And according to the source, Abercrombie & Fitch has no problem selling XL and XXL clothing to MEN. So this isnât just body-shaming and dismissal of overweight people in general, but OVERWEIGHT WOMEN SPECIFICALLY, who are by Jeffriesâ SUPREME judgment objectively incapable of being cool or attractive.
FUCK
THISÂ
GUY
Iâm disgusted, but I canât say Iâm overly surprised. Iâm also happy that Iâve never paid a dime for any of their shit clothing.
I’m a little perplexed that this is getting attention from all sorts of non-body-acceptancey people I know the last couple days. Â (Not that I mind. Â It’s great.)
A&FÂ being terrible is pretty old news from my perspective. Â They’re pretty high up on the list of terrible clothing companies, right next to American Apparel.
I’m glad so many people are hearing about this. Â Hopefully people will start to realize that this is what it’s like every single day living as a fat person.

Lazy
Iâve seen so many Bioshock gifsets and so much Bioshock fan art that I feel like Iâve played the game. Â I always thought that sitting around and playing video games was being lazy, but Tumblr has taken it to the next level.
Tumblr – playing video games for me since 2007.
I watch other people play videos games on YouTube while I art.
If I Admit That ‘Hating Men’ Is a Thing, Will You Stop Turning It Into a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?
If I Admit That ‘Hating Men’ Is a Thing, Will You Stop Turning It Into a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy?
I have angered people. I try not to do that. I do think there are people who hate men, but I think it is mostly caused my thousands of years of misogyny, sexism, inequality, and a powerful patriarchy turning inward on itself. If you want to know my thoughts on this issue, this article articulates them pretty well. I think thatâs all I will say on the matter for now. If you are really so upset with my opinion that you feel compelled to unfollow, I hope you have a nice life and a lovely day.Â
I received a lot of asks about this yesterday. This is a good summary of my thoughts as well.
