✈️ Airlines have been shrinking seat sizes for years, but the average clothing size in America has been steadily increasing. In the 1990s, the average American woman wore a size 12-14. Today, it’s a size 16-18. Yet, airlines continue to reduce seat widths and legroom, making it harder for larger-bodied people to travel comfortably. The real issue isn’t our bodies—it’s the airlines cutting corners to fit more people in tighter spaces and blaming us for not fitting. It’s time for airlines to take responsibility for the lack of space they provide—and for the FAA to step in and protect plus-size travelers. We deserve seats that accommodate all body sizes. Sign the petition demanding the FAA enforce policies to ensure airlines provide comfortable, accessible seating for plus-size travelers. • • • #BodyEqualityInTravel #FatPhobiaInTheAir #ProtectPlusSizeTravelers #FatPeopleDeserveSpace #InclusiveTravel #TravelForAll #FearlessFatAdvocacy #Fyp
Replying to @tonitonetones420 Just lose weight’ is the lazy answer to a much bigger problem. Shrinking airline seats and systemic anti-fat bias don’t just affect fat people—they impact everyone. This isn’t about ‘more comfort’ or ‘special treatment.’ It’s about the bare minimum: having the space and dignity to exist. Airlines profit from discomfort, while society deflects blame onto individuals instead of demanding better policies. Other countries, like Canada, have already recognized this as a basic right. So why can’t we? It’s time to fight back against systems that put profit over people. Sign the petition at change.org/plussizetravel and demand fair treatment for all travelers. • • • #BodyEqualityInTravel #FearlessFatAdvocacy #FatLiberation #PlusSizeTravel #AccessibleTravel #FairFlightsForAll #TravelRights #StopAntiFatBias #OneSeatOneFare #ChangeTheSystem #AccessibleTravel #InclusiveTravel #TravelForAll #Travel #BodyEquality #FatRights #Fyp
🤔 Airplane seats are built for a size 6/8, but the average U.S. woman is a size 16/18. So who are these seats really for? Spoiler: not most of us. 🙄 You can call it entitlement, but I’m calling it what it is—demanding respect and comfort for all bodies. 💁♀️ If that makes you mad, maybe sit with why instead of trying to cram me into your outdated biases. 🛫 • • • #BodyEqualityInTravel #FearlessFatAdvocacy #PlusSizeTravel #AirlineAccountability #FatLiberation #SeatsTooSmall #Size16IsAverage #StopFatHate #RespectAllBodies #FlyingWhileFat #DoBetterAirlines #Fyp
