More fat characters who are complex heroes, serious love interests, funny without mentioning their weight, brooding anti-heroes, compelling antagonists, random bystanders without comments toward their looks

I think Venture Bros is the only time I have seen a fat character who is "out of shape" start working out and remain fat when they get buff.

Being weird about fat characters isnt progressive, stop immediately calling them soft, mom like, saying they look like they'd give good hugs??? Devoid of any attention to their actual personality traits, this is dehumanizing and infantilizing

The fact people try to say Bob from Tekken is bad fat representation because he's "goofy" as if all the other Tekken characters aren't goofy themselves, like can you really say that Lee or Paul Phoenix are more serious characters? No, because all the characters are supposed to be outlandishly wacky and it's not just Bob being the token funny fat character when almost every character is silly
Like. He's fat, he's got a pretty face and good fashion sense, his personality doesn't revolve around food, and he's strong and healthy AND he's very happy being fat (to the point where he literally gets depressed when he's skinny). And when I think about it most people who complain aren't really in any fat positivity circles so I feel like it's just people being uncomfortable when there's a fat character in the game trying to hide it as concern
Anyways I love Bob forever he's my third main behind Dragunov and Steve and I hope he's in Tekken 8 :]

There is literally nothing wrong in of itself of playing around with fictional characters but am I the only one who finds it.. odd that it's mostly only fat and or disabled characters being "rewritten", or mischaracterized most of the time?
Like it's always fat characters being drawn thin and shit or very obviously autistic characters having their autism stripped away.
Like according to some fandoms I guess autistic people can't be attractive because they always have to have autistic traits stripped away. Idk it irks me.
Back to the thing about fat characters, another thing is just unconventionally attractive characters in general. Characters with hooked noses, wrinkles, round faces, ect. having those traits taken away all the time. Idk if it's a big deal but it really irks me.

Some "jokes" I could never see about plus sized characters for the rest of my life and it'd still be too soon: - the inevitable side comment when they eat something healthy - Stealing food. - they always ate the last snack. - When the possibility of them having a crush on someone is mentioned, the crush is always visibly repulsed at the suggestion. - They are the only member of the group that is physically unfit. I assure you, a good portion of thin people would be out of breath as well if they don't work out regularly. - they are always smelly and have bad hygiene.
I highly doubt it was funny the first time these jokes were made, and they certainly weren't funny every time since then. Do authors not know overweight people in real life?

[ID: A picture of two centaurs in conversation, one smaller centaur posed mid-leap with arms outstretched towards his companion and the other a much larger centaur seated and listening with his eyes closed and smiling. The background is a blue gradient.
Both centaurs have African features and are wearing largely white clothing with blue or green accents. /End ID]
Purchased a commission from @kaijubrainsart of my characters Aziz and Dakari from my Prince of Gold story.

there are so many reasons fictional characters could and should be fat but they're drawn skinny as a rail for no other reason than people think everyone should be skinny to be loveable.
example: guy who drinks a lot of alcohol, like a whole 6 pack of beer every day, is somehow drawn thin as a rail. that guy should have a beer gut and be as wide as a house. why are you drawing him thin
example: woman who is body positive (especially about fat bodies) and is kinky and loves sex AND loves eating is somehow skinny as a rail despite there being an entire kink fixated on eating a ton of food and another kink around appreciating fat bodies. same woman was raised in an orphanage and is trans, likely had to starve herself (which a prior history of starvation can lead to weight gain) to fit the ideal mold of what a trans person "should" be to be able to transition in the first place but is now leaning into hedonism and "if you don't like me the way i am then fuck you" attitudes. why are you drawing her thin
example: person with impulse control issues who even has a quote about how they eat even when they're full. their parents are also notably fat. somehow despite obvious signs of binge eating disorder and having fat people genes is the same size as most of the average characters of their birth assignment.
EDIT: THOUGHT OF ANOTHER EXAMPLE
example: this guy doesn't do much physical activity given that he's the token non superpowered guy in a group of superpowered people, mostly uses his brain as his "superpower" (he's just really smart lmao) and has a diet consisting of instant ramen and candy. somehow is one of the thinnest characters there.
example: this guy can shapeshift into a huge tiger the size of a 6 foot tall human basically, which would logically require a lot of body fat and calories to sustain without pain, EXTREME amounts of stretch marks, or some sort of chronic fatigue. is even joked about in the manga about having "love handles". eats tons of food because of his history with starvation (another factor in weight gain and fatness is previously being starved as i stated in the second example). SOMEHOW is, according to his stated height and weight, UNDERWEIGHT.
like. do you SEE the problems i'm talking about

I think vampires would like a chubby love interest. This being starved of warmth, of nourishment, looking near death and pale. And she sees a plus sized person donating at blood drives monthly and she goes hungry for him in so many ways.

One thing that relistening to Amnesty hit me with is that Griffins first words to describe Mama are “a large woman, this imposing figure” (and I think goes on to mention that she has pretty big hands?). It reminds me of Justin’s description of Amber, as being inspired by the kind of Appalachian woman who could get hit by a truck and come away unscathed.
And I forget that every time, because it’s honestly not really a trait that gets brought up again ever, but also because half of the fan art of her makes her skinny and small. I feel like I can’t make too spicy a commentary on that without thinking it out more, but man the erasure of largeness and space-taking for female characters and the default assumption of the opposite features.

Stowaway got a new dress and is testing Captain Cranky's reaction to it. lol
Drew this as an example of a body type for my characters for roleplaying. :P That way there was no ambivalence.
