There’s a new girl group on the Japanese music scene. “Chubbiness”, as they’re affectionately (?) called, is a collection of ten young women who boldly defy Japan’s ultra-petite body ideal. It’s said that they’re the product of a body acceptance movement for “marshmallow girls” (am I really typing this), aka women with curves. The thing is, though, if you look at the ladies of Chubbiness and other marshmallow girls (seriously wtf), very few of these women are genuinely overweight. And actually, none of the Chubbiness members look to be even a little chubby. Could they be marshmallow imposters? GASP.
Anyway, Chubbiness talks about their favorite chubby body parts and they tweet out a lot of photos of the girls with food. It’s all very odd, and I urge you to take a look.
PLUS:
Gwen Stefani fat shames herself. Is considering becoming the 11th member of Chubbiness.
