Throughout elementary school, middle school, even high school. Even when we practiced our graduation walk…

I was made out as a joke, when groups of guys would walk by and one would say, “Hey, my friend wants to go out with you!” or “My friend thinks your hot."

And to only make it worse, that guys friend would say something like, "Ew, fuck no!” or “Fuck you man!”

I was a joke, because a stranger thought it would be funny, a stranger assumed that I was undateable, or unloveable. A stranger decided that it would be funny to tell a fat girl, of whom was unloveable or undateable that his friend would love to date me, because he knew he wouldn’t. And that stranger’s friend found it appropriate to rudely (and sometimes loudly) say, “Fuck you man!” or “Ew, fuck no!"

Because I am fat. Strangers made me into a joke.

Thin Privilege is when you’re asked on a date, and you don’t need to question motives.

Thin Privilege is never having to be a punchline.
