Traveling and getting to know other cultures makes us open our minds but also brings us real culture shocks. This expression is the one that could be applied, although perhaps it falls short, to what happened to Erika Severini when she traveled to the capital of Thailand and he took a tour of one of his shopping centers.
Just a day ago @ erikaseverini1 uploaded to his TikTok account the surprise he had found while touring Bangkok and his video already has more than 4.8 million “likes”, 330 people have saved it and almost two million have shared it. And up.
The reason for such a stir is the name that this Swedish tourist noticed that they had some stores in the Krung Thong Plaza shopping center, dedicated exclusively to plus size fashion.
However, far from being an inclusive environment, some stores were baptized with fat-phobic names such as: “Beebeefat”accompanied on the label by the drawing of a pink pig; “Fatty Fat Girl”; “Love Calories”; “Thai Fat”; “Fat Cat”; “Moo Moo” (which, in translation, is used to moo or as part of a pork leg dish) or, directly, “Fat Girls”.

In the more than 71,000 comments that the publication already accumulates at the time of writing these lines, TikTok users seem to have taken it mostly with humor. However, there are also those who point out that the most dramatic thing is that when you enter one of these stores, the supposed “plus size” sizes they are equivalent to a western M or L.
