Insatiable | Official Trailer

There is an entire list of reasons why this show should be avoided like the fatphobic piece of garbage it clearly is, but let’s start with the name.

The idea that fat girls are “insatiable” is a rape culture trope.

In the time of Me Too, fat women are still not believed and our pain is a joke to thin people.

This character is brutally assaulted FOR BEING FAT to the point where her jaw has to be wired shut– and the people who made this show think that is “zany”. When I spent my entire childhood being abused and assaulted for being a fat girl– I didn’t find it fucking zany.

Number 2-

Don’t watch media that use fat suits. Period.

Fat suits never look right on thin people and I have come to believe that is a feature, not a bug.

Fat suits exist in order to make us look inhuman and monstrous.

Fat suits perpetuate the idea that for a fat person to become permanently thin, all they need to do is take off that suit of fat they are wearing and- ta da! Thinness and power are yours for the taking.

Number 3-

You can be literally anything you want to be AND ALSO BE FAT.

You can be a fat princess, a fat jock or a fat brain.

Fuck you, Insatiable.

Number 4-

This show promotes eating disorders.

To teens.

Number 5-

Thin people need to stop stealing the stories of fat people.

I don’t care what thin people think about fat people, and I ESPECIALLY am tired of seeing the pain of fat people appropriated by thin people to pretend to be body posi to each other, while making things worse for actual fat people.

I am really sick of catching death threats from neo-Nazis to make space for fat people, only for thin people to rush in and steal it, ignore fat people and shove us out.

Stop stealing our stories. Thin people STEAL OUR PAIN and turn it into jokes. And tired, lazy jokes too.

@teenvogue is promoting this garbage, which is APPALLING.

The next time you want to thank fake woke Teen Vogue for being progressive for teens– just remember. They don’t give a single fuck about FAT teens, and this isn’t the first time they’ve been fatphobic either.

Let @netflix know what you think too.
