YES! I am so glad you posted this I was afraid I was the only one! I often don’t even tell people I am vegetarian because of this reason! One time my brother told someone I was a vegetarian, and their response was “isn’t she a little bit chubby to be a vegetarian?” SO RUDE! I don’t seriously see how being overweight should mean someone isn’t a vegetarian?? My entire family is of a larger build, it’s how I naturally am, and has nothing to do with what I eat!! I have never been made fun of by another vegetarian/vegan, though, I think because most of them are concerned about the well being of animals rather than how a person looks. You are right, veganism is about compassion.

idk why people are so freaking mean these days of age

Why do people have to be mean?

Has anyone ever accused you of not being vegan because of your weight?
Have you ever been singled out or mocked by other vegans for it? Or met a fatphobic vegan?
Have you ever been accused of being an “unhealthy vegan” or just accused of being “unhealthy” based on your weight alone?

Someone told me today that they only “vegans” they had ever known had made fun of them for being fat. But I can’t imagine a fat-shaming vegan, because veganism is about compassion. So I assume it was a “plant based dieter”, someone who eats like a vegan for weight loss purposes but still uses animal tested products and wears leather and fur. One of those people with a 100$ juicing machine and designer sweat pants.

But are there honestly (ethical) vegans out there who think fat is by definition unhealthy?
If so, what could we do about it?

And last question: What’s the best clothing line or online shop for a Vegan Fatshionista?
