this single image made me want to make a whole thread of fatphobia in the emo community so here we go:
so as you can see, patrick’s photo wasn’t even him as a teenager, it was during cork tree i think (?) which is, clearly not before puberty, then they show a picture from sp, where he was extremely skinny. thoughts?
tw fatphobia ,, body image for the next few
tw fatphobia and ed
now let’s look at the mcr community, dear god. the fatphobia is extremely common and it’s fucking, gross. gerard typically receives the most of this, especially now as people are attempting to “compare” him to dd, in which he literally had a fucking ed.
this shit is gross and it’s literally pissing me off.
tw fatphobia
now let’s look at a different spectrum, lm. now people typically also fatshame frank especially now and during lm. he gets praised on twitter a lot for losing weight so quickly but it could’ve been extremely-
unhealthy to lose that in that period of time. praising weight loss can be fine but some people take it way too far especially when they start insulting their previous weight and stuff like that.
going back to fob for a second,
tw extreme fatphobia
people usually fatshame patrick from pre hiatus for literally no reason? but as soon as sp came out, people started instantly praising him. i literally hear “my favourite era is sp because he was skinny 😻“ that is subtle -
fatphobia. if you just said “my favourite era is sp” i literally wouldn’t have give a fuck.
tw fatphobia ,,

now for the panic community, yes yall aren’t safe from this either. before all of these accusations come out, i saw a shit ton of people fatshaming ryan ross, and for what? just because he can write better than someone with an ego problem? i don’t get it?
tw fatphobia ,, body image ,, ed
back to mcr and then something in general since i’ll probably get cancelled for that 😻😻
a lot of people i see on mcr twitter and ig is make advancements in which are like
“eat today and you’ll look like current gerard” UM???? DO YOU SEE THE-
PROBLEM???? you’re literally encouraging an ed and i hate you if you do that.
now an overall thing on something ive noticed in a few merch stores. so i was on the mcr merch store a few weeks ago trying to look at the sizing. and guess what i saw, all the plus sizes, poof. now this could be for multiple reasons, but if it was thise why were all the-
small and mediums still there. PLEASE IF YOU CAN BUY YOURE OWN SIZE ITS NOT HARD. it’s a privilege to be able to buy sizes from bigger sizes than yours. it’s a literal privilege to be able to buy size xl when you’re a small. please stick to your sizes if there’s a limited amount.
that’s all i’m asking for at this point.

end of thread
ok adding on, i also don’t like how whenever plus size people talk about their problems, everyone else just,, dismisses it??!! i don’t understand????
