A space built for fat people
How we talk about bodies, how we flag difficult content and what to do if something we publish doesn’t sit right with you.
Language we use
- “Fat” as a neutral, descriptive word, and a reclaimed one.
- The words people choose for themselves, including identity-first or person-first language.
- Specific, honest descriptions of systems: fatphobia, weight stigma, anti-fatness.
What we leave out
- Diet talk, weight-loss stories and “before and after”.
- Weights, sizes or BMI used as measures of worth or health.
- Debating whether fat people deserve dignity.
