Damn wish it didn’t have to be like this, but you know this heffer was willing to sacrifice anything to make infinity lbs of potato salad
What is a world without picnic foods
While my heart and soul has never been more full, I feel the heart in my stomach missing real Mexican food. Who wants to send me their secret family recipe for carne asada??? I can’t deal with this heartache any longer, please put me out of my misery. I’M DESPERATE

The other night we got together for a drunken conversation about politics behind living a Hungry Virgin Lifestyle. Overall we just make awkward jokes about having sex with each other, but we did talk a little bit about how Hungry Virgins came to be. Here are some main points:
- Being a Hungry Virgin is about resisting heteronormative and patriarchal ideas about virginity, sex, and pleasure
- Being a Hungry Virgin is about celebrating and reclaiming our bodies and celebrating our relationships with food
- Being a Hungry Virgin is about reclaiming stereotypes and turning them into humour as a form of resistance
- Being a Hungry Virgin is about resisting the stereotype that fat people are de-sexualized or don’t fuck/can’t fuck/shouldn’t fuck
- Being a Hungry Virgin is about recognizing that all bodies are good bodies and that connecting across difference in the face of a destructive climate that hates all of our bodies is a bad ass form of resistance
NOTE: Being a Hungry Virgin doesn’t actually have to be about sex at all if you don’t want it to. We went straight to sex with it but really it can be whatever you want it to be. It can also be something you don’t personally identify with and that is totally solid too, there are plenty of Hungry Virgins out there, and it’s not for everyone. I think at its core though, it is about a reclamation of our bodies, a celebration of food and a transformation of stereotypes that are used against fat bodies into a humorous form of resistance.
ON FAT ACCEPTANCE: We are not trying to create a rift between people who organize around body politics and those who organize around a framework of fat acceptance. We think FA is really important, but we are more invested in organizing around a politic that opens up social movements and creates room for a multiplicity of bodies and experiences. (There is room for fat acceptance in there!)
One last thing: The mom comment might have been a little insensitive – Glitter Politic does NOT hate moms, nor did we mean to homogenize all of them or insinuate that they are frumpy.
XOXO

that ass
There are a million different things you can do to learn to love and honor your body, but my most favorite and most effective way is getting completely naked in front of a mirror and fucking myself.
And I mean fucking myself like a lover, not like rubbing my clit until I get off because I don’t have the time or patience or strength to honor my body the way it deserves.
I mean like touching my entire body like I’ll need to remember it on the witness stand. Touching all the places that can make me uncomfortable and giving them praise for being mine. Warming myself up until I begging myself to stop.
Then I fuck myself like its the only way I can show my body I appreciate it for everything it does
I fuck myself like the Hungry Virgin that I am
Go masturbate today. I’d hate to have all the fun
