Thin privilege is being able to go to the gym without people giving you looks as if you don’t belong there.

It is like this:



If I don’t go to the gym, people ridicule me for being fat, lazy, and unconcerned with my weight.

However, if I go to the gym to shed myself of this fat, lazy stereotype, they stare me down as if I am tainting their healthy, thin utopia.

Am the only one who sees the double standard here?
