Michelle Buteau talks about Plus-Size in her podcast
As we know that Michelle has always got the audience with her witty humor and since her series Survival Of The Thickest is streaming soon on Netflix, her character is a resonance to it. In her podcast- Thickening Podcast, she talked about all kind of things whether sexual or just some confusions about oversized people. Her podcasts are always filled with such things that are both enlightening and funny.
“I want to dress women and help them love their bodies,” Buteau’s Mavis says in the trailer. The clip also shows the supporting cast, including Tone Bell, Christine Horn, and Tasha Smith. She is seen always giving a huge shout out to plus-size people how happy they should be in their bodies.
Is Survival of the Thickest based on the struggles of plus-size people?
Technically, yes! Usually, over-sized people tend to feel a little conscious about how they look or people treat them. Being overweight doesn’t give them that acceptance in society as normal-looking people might get. Lately, people have embraced the way they look and self-love. Survival of the Thickest is one such story that gets you back on what you deserve and eliminates the negative things.
