"glorify obesity" and "fat pig bitch" are great phrases that help you tell when someone is an asshole!
Personally I feel like there are some characters that I couldn't cosplay because I don't think it would like right with my body (Marceline from Adventure Time for example, both Korra and Asami--for the record I am not saying that other people shouldn't cosplay them, this is just how I feel personally about myself).
But then there are others that are really neutral. They look good on a variety of body types! Roxy from Homestuck. Lumpy Space Princess. Flame Princess. Ms Paint. Probably a lot more that I can't remember offhand.
The trick is knowing what looks flattering on you, and finding characters that wear outfits like that. You can modify it too. I have seen a great plus size Queen Serenity from Sailor Moon.
It's TOTALLY WEIRD but I've never gotten hateful comments in real life!
