This is why fat representation matters. Growing up as a 90s and 00's kid, where there were barely any fat or even mid-sized female role models, I internalized that girls could grow up to anything, but they had to be skinny first. It still messes with my head today.
Ugh same! It was such an awful time period for fat folks, especially fat women.
I wonder why there were less fat models in the 90s.

Why didn't they use Rosie O'Donnell as a role model?
