What is Thin Privilege

Thin privilege is a concept that fat activists have developed over years of personal and collective experience, gathered data, and a decades-long fight for fat folks to be treated the same as people in smaller bodies. It is not about your individual experience with your body. It is not about whether or not you’ve ever looked in the mirror and hated your reflection. We’ve all experienced that. But we don’t all experience the way that fat people are treated in this world. Use this design to help educate on the unearned privileges that are experienced by people in smaller bodies.
