read, read, read, away.

And, flickr

""Now then, the good news is that flickr - like any online community - is mutable. It can be improved. How? By creating the photos we want to see. I would love to see more fat positive stuff out there, and flickr is certainly a place where a stand can be made. It's viewed by millions of folks and gives us an opportunity to influence public perception.

That said, one event that brought on this post was this set by jayjuice, whose photographs I already enjoyed. When she decided to tackle fat as a subject, I was delighted and really do like the results.

I'm throwing out a challenge to everyone - myself included - to make flickr a part of our fat culture. Let's embrace it. Let's explore it. Let's use this opportunity to make fat art, to make fat beautiful, and to show others how fat can be a source of pride, instead of shame. ""
