Slimming World (UK version of Weight Watchers) is telling those who have reached their “target weight” to ditch their fat friends.

The pictures Lush posted are media that was created by the film company — and the film is inherently problematic in terms of “diversity and inclusion justice.” Lush re-posting them is a problem. That they were created in the first place is a problem.

Companies make unjust policies all the time, and they rarely change them except by public pressure.

You know what’s more “ostracizing” than being called plus-size? Actually BEING plus-size and unable to find clothes that fit you and that you like.
