I was told that I ‘wasn’t worthy of traveling’ as a fat person

• Before fat people even get to our destination, we have to figure out how we're going to get through the flying part.
• Somehow our fatness makes us undeserving of a very basic level of human decency.
• When we finally do get to our destination, many of us don't get to have the experiences we want.

I'm a fat woman. Like most fat people, I face a myriad of challenges traveling and adventuring the way that I want to. Being fat truly extends to every single part of traveling from flights, to buses, hotels and restaurants. Even where we do "fit," the treatment we face from other people around us and sometimes the staff – It's indescribable.
