I can understand why you feel that way. It doesn't bother me enough to stay away from the musical entirely but sometimes Edna's songs come off as a little strange when she's talking about accepting herself as a fat woman (and BTW how much she and Maybelle talk about food really doesn't help with stereotyping fat women.)

I also felt weird watching the latest adaptation (Hairspray live) where Maybelle was portrayed by Jennifer Hudson who is... not fat. It made her song seem off as well.

To me movie/musical still gets major points for being overall progressive but I get it.
