Meet Meghan. She’s the creative force behind a YouTube channel called “Project LifeSize” (“We are just your average-sized collaboration channel.”) and she searched high and low and in her email inbox for plus-size (or median size for American women or fat or heavy or thick or big or what-have-you) women to talk about themselves! Best job ever? Quite possibly. Anyway. We’re not absolutely certain whether any of the women involved with the project are Latina, but we’d love it if they were to include experiences of plus-size women in the Latino community. After all, if we’re all going to have our bodies emphasized in mainstream society and be reduced to the “hot tamales” (groan) stereotype, we’ve got to expect that people will be surprised that we delectable, spicy treats don’t all come in one size.

    Well, thank you for the shout out!
    If you are looking for a beautiful, curvy Latina, we have Crystal. She is our Wednesday!

    The goal of the channel really was to provide a range of different sizes, looks, personalities and life experiences. I find all of the girls to be amazing and I hope others will to :)
