It’s ‘Hot Chubby Girl Summer’ And I Won’t Cover Up My Body

A 23-year-old body-positive influencer has declared it “hot chubby girl summer” and insists she won’t cover up no matter what. Emily Bispo shared a video of herself lounging by the pool in a bikini with her stomach on display in a bid to hit back at haters who tell her she could hide her body.

  1. Why do people have a problem with her body? Emily tags the clip: “You should probably cover up, that’s not very flattering.” This is obviously a response she often receives to her content, but she’s not bothered. “No,” she says, adding: “It’s hot chubby girl summer, mind ur business!”
  2. Emily is all about “keeping it real, spreading love and empowering all sizes.” That means that while she gets a lot of trolls who insult her for not being rail-thin, Emily is all about loving herself just as she is and encouraging others to do the same.
  3. So many women are inspired by Emily. “I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THANK U FOR INSPIRING ME TO LOVE MY BODY,” one person responded. Another added: “This makes me feel safe.” A third said: “You make me feel so much better about myself,” while another praised Emily for her content. “You literally don’t know how much effect u have on me!” she wrote.
  4. We could all use more Emilys in the world. No matter what your size, you’re beautiful and valuable and you should never be ashamed of what you see in the mirror. Love yourself as you are, embrace yourself, and don’t hide away from the world no matter what the haters say.
