Thanks for the reminder to donate to NAAFA -- I just became a monthly donor. Iā€™m fat, but in my 60s and out of the fray, but our daughter, who is a big woman in every way, is very much IN the working world, and in an industry space that, while not actively hostile to larger bodies, is at least indirectly judgmental. She just got a well-deserved promotion, but I think she had to fight harder for it than her colleagues, and I am convinced her size has something to do with it. There should absolutely be anti-discrimination laws to protect those of us in larger bodies. Thanks, Virginia, for goosing me. šŸ˜Š

YES. NAAFA is doing phenomenal work -- getting anti-discrimination protections in place truly is the foundation of all of this.
