thin privilege is not being told by your family that you should lose weight first before you consider having a child. its also not needing to worry about being stared at while you walk past strangers, some of whom would be considered an “unacceptable weight”.

thin privilege is also not having to worry about what or how you eat in front of others. if you’re thin you can eat as much as you want because you won’t gain weight, you have a naturally high metabolism so you’re fine. if you’re considered fat you get stared at the way that you eat, its evidence that your weight is your fault because of what you put in it. thin privilege is not calling yourself a fat-ass when you eat a meal. it means not having to hear “don’t you think you’ve had enough?” it means not having to constantly be on a diet.

thin privilege is not having to hear your doctor comment on your weight EVERY time you visit, even though you may just be a few pounds overweight.

thin privilege is not having to say “shemay be overweight but she’s still beautiful!”. beauty should not have a direct correlation with weight.

thin privilege is not needing to be extremely complimented when you lose some weight, or criticized for gaining weight.

thin privilege is not feeling guilty with every bite that you eat.
