And you were like, so badass.
Yeah.
Good morning, David. Good morning, baby. Oh, VillachΓ©. He's trying to fuck her for sure. Huh? He's trying to fuck this lady.
I don't know that. And how'd you turn to acting? How'd that happen?
What's wrong? Have you ever felt discriminated against during travel? I recently hosted 13 plus size travelers in Thailand. And unfortunately, during our trip, we were discriminated against.
As a fat black woman that's traveled extensively through Southeast Asia and Thailand specifically, I was able to give my travelers the heads up that they were more than likely going to experience some fat phobia during our trip. What I wasn't expecting was that the company that we hired to give us a tour through Bangkok's floating market would be the source of the fat phobic comments.
Bangkok's floating market is a historical and cultural site that I was super excited for my travelers to experience, which is one of the reasons why it was a highlight as I built the itinerary. My travelers were super excited to visit the floating market, but I could feel the mood shift as soon as we started to get on the boats.
I make sure that all of the companies that I work with are aware that my clients and I are all plus size travelers so that hopefully that can minimize the shock and awe when we arrive. After the tour, I checked in with all of my clients and unfortunately one of them was called some disturbing names in English by one of the boat staff.
He's sweet, though. Are the rest of your family all normal size?
In response, we declined to give a tip and contacted the management of that boat company. I've also decided not to bring my clients back to the floating market. What would you do if this happened to you? Let me know in the comments.
Like what did they call you?
I know that you've recently gotten a divorce. Divorce?
