#1 On a flight to Long Beach, a woman was reassigned to a middle seat because her size 28 body took up too much space. She had spent her life avoiding touching men’s hot stoves of anger.

#2 I have found ways to minimize the likelihood of humiliation. I don’t fly often, and when I do, the experience remains punishing at every turn. Still, couples stare at me while I wait to board at the gate, openly discussing my body and trying to sneak a picture.

#3 The physical world is not built for bodies like mine, even as our numbers are growing. I am constantly reminded of this by the people around me, from the man on the plane to the staff at department stores.

#4 Airline seat sizes have been decreasing over the years, and it’s getting harder and harder to fit in them.
