“Our Larger Bodies Are Clearly Lacking Representation In Media”: Plus-Size Models Pose As Disney Princesses (16 Pics)
InterviewDisney princesses have been an inspiration to many children for their beauty and charm. But according to critics, the iconic characters like Cinderella, Snow White, Belle, or Ariel have not been representing every woman out there.
The lack of plus-size bodies and skin colors was precisely what inspired social media influencer Natasha Polis and her friends to launch the #PlusSizePrincessProject. “We take up more space than most, yet our larger bodies are clearly lacking representation in media. So here’s our response this Halloween: 21 influencers dressing up in our own style as beloved female Disney characters,” Natasha wrote to her 77.4k followers on Instagram and shared the photos of the plus-size princesses.
Both inclusive and diverse, the pictures prove that queens and princesses come in all styles, backgrounds, shapes, forms, colors, and sizes and that whoever had a dream to become one as a child has no reason to think they shouldn’t.

literally 2 of the other men in the movie Mulan were plus size. it doesn't matter what race, what age, and what size you are to dress up and feel good about yourself. for example I am mixed (black and white) for Halloween I wanted to go as froggy from my hero academia so I started making my costume i showed some of my friends and they said I couldn't be froggy because of how dark my skin was, I still went and I felt great in my costume and I actually won a costume contest. it doesn't matter who you are or what you want to be do what makes you happy

She's a famous TikTok personality that goes by name Glitter and Lazers in YouTube. She's super positive, has given the middle finger to the problematic part of the plus size community and is on her own health journey.
We neither need posts about Disney reimaginations nor about influencers. Mathematically this might make this post valid (-1 * -1), but I think it isn't.
By the way: as often when the euphemism "plus-sized" is used, obese is shown (at least for some of these women). This does not tell anything about beauty...it tells a lot about health, though.

NO ONE THINKS IT'S HEALTHY TO BE OVER WEIGHT. No one thinks that. But the idea is that just because someone is over weight doesn't mean they are ugly and worthless.
