A dark blue background with this text faintly overlaid: "having privileges is not your fault - it does not make you a bad person - it is your responsibility to extend those privileges to everyone who lacks them." Layered on this is the first line of this post plus Lindley's logo.

Thin privilege is the ability to talk about thin privilege.

One time, @thecrankytherapist and I inadvertently ran an experiment. I posted about thin privilege, and Jess reposted it. I had to shut down comments on my original post after attracting hundreds of trolls. Jess, who lives in a thin body, simply didn’t attract that kind of hate.

I talk in depth about topics like these every week in my free Body Liberation Guide. The next one goes out Monday; join in below.

Every Monday, I send out my Body Liberation Guide, a thoughtful email jam-packed with resources on body liberation, weight stigma, body image and more. And it’s free. Let’s change the world together.
