FA Frenchie
zoomalark asked: For me, my model of "big can also be beautiful" is Marilyn Monroe. With all of these people thinking that a size 0 is the goal size to wear, I remember that she wore a size 8-10. I fit right in that category. I've been negative about myself and my body for a long time, but I'm becoming to be on terms where I'm telling myself in full honesty that I'm beautiful and I...

angelicabuttons asked: I just found this blog but I just wanted to say thank you. I’ve hated my body since I was 7, I’m 26 now and I want to start loving myself. I’ve been made fun of practically my whole life for being overweight and I’ve realized that even if I never become skinny I still deserve the chance to feel good. Thanks to your blog and others like it I’ve stopped looking in the...

daydreameryeah asked: I've been on my own appearance/size/fat acceptance journey for a while now, hugely aided by the internet. Yesterday I found this blog and basically had a braingasm. Later in the evening, I was getting undressed and I noticed fresh stretch marks on my hips. And I grinned. Because not only does my body protect me from disease and help me to do awesome stuff (like run along beaches at night,...
Anonymous asked: (trigger warning, talking about weight) My boyfriend weighs 99kg/219lbs, and his self esteem is pretty low on that regard. I mean this from the bottom of my heart, he is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I wouldn't change a thing about him. He always calls himself ugly. How do I make him see that he's gorgeous and perfect the way he is? I love him so much and I really hate...

mykailamess asked: FA Frenchie (or followers), have you got any snappy comebacks to "Only skinny people should wear skinny jeans"?
scienceandrollerskates asked: Oh, FA-french-bulldog. I would give you all the bellyrubs in the world, yes I would, who's a good dog? Who's subverting the patriarchy's bullshit expectations of women? You are! Yes you are! Such a good dog!

Frenchie Update!
I’ve organized the site a bit better. Now you can find all of the FA Frenchie memes HERE and all of the questions Frenchie has asked HERE.
And to all of my lovely followers who are celebrating the first night of Channukah, a holiday characterized by fried food, enjoy your latkes and sufganiyot and remember not to let your family’s preconceived notions of fat get you down!

schlegelbites asked: Re: Does it get easier? I treated hating my body much like an addict has to treat their drug of choice; I had to quit cold turkey. No women's magazines, no shopping with my mom, and absolutely no diet talk. I'd just walk away from triggering situations. Now I'm strong enough to walk straight to the plus size section in front of my mom. I can roll my eyes at Cosmo and Allure's...
Anonymous asked: How do you do it? One minute I'm happy with myself... then I try on my favorite shirt, it's not fitting right and I just want to cry. =/ Does it get easier?

Anonymous asked: I'm very far from being fat, but my boyfriend has recently become sexily chubby. He's terribly unconfident about it, even though I tell him how yummy he is this way.. What should I do?
Anonymous asked: Dunno if it's been said before, but Mika's song "Big Girls" is kind of terrific. Keep loving your bodies, okay? <3
Anonymous asked: Let me try my hand at this. *ahem* Hey, big guys! You are manly, sexy and awesome as fuck. Love, an average-weight gay man. P.S.: Tyler Labine? Mmmmmmm.
acidicdreaming asked: Male here! I, personally, am not fat, but am in a polyamorous relationship with two lovely people who both just happen to be overweight and I get shit for it and it's just like, "And this is why you don't have a boyfriend/girlfriend and I have two."

Anonymous asked: Hay, big grrrls. You are fabulous, sexy and fierce as fuck. Love, a skinny femme dyke. p.s. Courtney Trouble? Mmmmmmm.
Anonymous asked: Hey dear Frenchie! I love you! Just wanted to ask if you know any kind and reasonable way to deal with relatives who are constantly saying that "fat is ugly and unhealthy and thin is pure beauty and health". I tried to show them that commentaries like that affect in a very bad way not only people they don't know, but also people they love and even themselves. Was it a good idea? ;*

korenaphotos asked: I wrote a unit test today for Working With Children, and the paragraph question was about how the media affects the socialization of children. I thought of you and basically went on a body-image rant. XD
