Jacob Riis Beach hosts the day of body positivity and fun, in the city at the heart of the fat acceptance movement
Fat Beach Day events are springing up across the US in an effort to fight back against fat-phobia, reclaim safe spaces for the community and honor plus-size culture. Today, one of these celebrations is being held to coincide with Pride month at Jacob Riis Beach in New York, a location deeply ensconced in the city’s activism space.
It’s like giving up smoking. A huge amount of smokers wish they didn’t, but they don’t stop until they say “enough is enough”, draw a line under it and commit to quitting instead of making 101 excuses about how hard it is.
I hope you get to your “enough is enough” point soon.
