this hits home in an unusual way for me. I used to be fat, I lost over 130 lbs. and I'm healthier but I still have a face that can fucking crack glass, and in media unattractive people are still "to be pitied or fixed or just made fun of. And they're usually stupid, dirty, and likely to be a traitor." And it is not just my imagination. People I don't even know say horrible things to me when I'm just out in public minding my own business. they take my picture with their damn cell phones and laugh at me. I have a really sour expression on my passport picture because the photographer insulted me right before he took it.

Yeah, I get this. I’m short and fat and ugly and I don’t bother losing weight because I hate being hungry all the damn time when I’ll still be ugly and pretty much a shapeless blob with boobs even at a normal “healthy” weight.

I’ve been called a troll* by so many different guys I’ve lost count, while putting my hideousness on display by... waiting for the bus, carrying my groceries home, going Christmas shopping, walking to work... the nerve! How dare I exist in public while ugly! I’ve been told I was too ugly to wear nice clothes, called a dog, followed home by barking frat bros...

*I’ve also been called a gnome twice but I think those guys must’ve been confused; I don’t even own a pointy hat.

And “health” concern trolls drive me nuts. I’ve never drank, smoked, or taken drugs other than NSAIDS or prescribed antibiotics. I haven’t eaten meat for 25 years, I hate soda, I drink coffee maybe once or twice a year, and I cook most everything from scratch. I walk 5-9 miles a day most days; I walked ~1,886 miles last year and go hiking every week or so. I grow some of my own fruit and veg. But somehow none of that matters because I eat a lot and I’m fat.

Like, yeah, positive representation of fat and ugly people would be nice, but at this point, no matter how lonely I get sometimes, I’d rather just be invisible. I just want to exist in public without being harassed. I’d rather fat and ugly people not be in media at all than have more films and tv shows and books where we’re the last acceptable targets.

I know how much it hurts. Hugs if you want them but I don't want erasure. I want us to be the heroes. (and not just protagonists who are more victim than hero, like in Precious....)

Oh man. I feel you so much on every level.

I live next to a town with a lot of Chinese students studying in my country. I'm overweight, ugly and have bad skin and it seems to be irresistible to them. They love to film and laugh at me. Every fucking day. I hate it but what can I do?

Filming someone without their consent is a pretty big deal.Is there not someone in their school you can go to and say "hey your students are filming me without my consent"?

I apologize if I'm not well versed in these things. But I hope you find a way to get them to stop. Hugs if you want them.
