was awesome! Got to interact with Seth Green a bit. I was really hoping to run into Stan Lee at some point but that never happened :[ but I had a great time. The Robot Chicken panel was excellent. I love small cons. No big crowds and only people who are there for the comics. *swoon*

Remember to never let anyone get you down. You are amazing. And beautiful, inside and out.

“Rocky Horror in San Diego is where I first learned to be okay with my sexuality, and to be comfortable being in front of others while wearing less that society told me I should.
In the decade I’ve been performing, my self confidence has gone up, and so has my weight. I’m not the skinny girl anymore, but I have learned that wasn’t the only way for me to be sexy. I even think that I could be a role model for other girls who see me perform.”

“Well I am proud of my body with my beard, my cat green eyes, my mischievous little like a cheshire cat alice looking from above of a branch. not too big or too small just the right size, dark brown as my soul, I appear and disappears my way in the real world. Just me. Cheshire Cat”

“This cell phone picture was recently taken of me by my boyfriend of almost 7 years. I had just gotten home from a photoshoot and was enjoying some in n out burger, and he said “even scarfing that cheeseburger you’re still gorgeous” (making a joke on me yelling om nom nom with most every bite). Just because a woman likes food, or happens to be a bit curvier than most doesn’t make them even less beautiful. My boyfriend doesn’t care that he weighs less than me, or that he is skinnier than me, he just loves me for ME. Body positive to me means; I love who I am and no one can make me feel horrible unless I let them. Flame me, photoshop me, hate mail me, I’m still fucking awesome. Haterz gonna hate!!”

“Brandee Lee,23 I’ve been modeling for 5 years and I’ve been a victim of bad photoshop myself.I don’t get too offended,I laugh my ass off when my body is thinner and my arms are smaller.they change my face and I look like a weirdo.Theres one time I took it to heart when a photographer posted unedited pics of me in his photo album and had the one edited pic of me thinner and the photo shop was crappy.That was a time when I was a bit smaller and weigh 185 and now I weigh 195 and I’m working to be 180 again.If he edited all of them it would have made sense,long story short I cried and filled with rage and messaged him.I told him that you are sending the wrong message to some of my teenage fans by doing that and i asked him to remove my album.I wanted to be a good role model for them.I decided after 3 years to post the edited photos cause I was ashamed of it and felt embarrassed every time I come across the photo.I only allow photo shop to remove pimples,deodorant marks,bruises and scratches from roller derby,if you change my body there will be a problem…”

Do you see this body?

“There’s more to being sexy than having the right size waist. I’ve been skinny. I’ve been fat. I’m currently zoning in on a balance that will make me healthier and more confident about myself. But, whatever size I’ve been, I have never been unable to get a partner if I wanted one. It doesn’t matter whether or not you fit the mold that your society/culture dictates is the ideal. What matters is that you are healthy and happy. So here’s me. Specifically, the middle of me.  I’m not perfect, but I’m okay. I’m not “too fat”, I’m not “too thin”. I’m a little out of proportion. I’m not as toned as I’d like. But that’s fine. I have people I care about who think I’m beautiful the way I am. There are parts of me that I’m not exactly enamored with but they’re generally parts that are difficult to change. Rather than continue to hate myself for genetic traits that are out of my control, I’m learning to change my attitude. I’m learning to accept and love myself for how I am. How I look doesn’t define me, but it is a part of who I am. If you judge me only by my body and you don’t like what you see, I think that says more about you than it does about me.”

“Here is my self portrait I sketched a few months ago with a thought that popped in my head when a girl stated why she hated the way she looked in a picture… and It’s exactly what I told her.”

“This is a picture of me and Jason from Comic Con last year.  I compared myself to the incredibly svelte Milla Jovovich (which is more confidence than I usually exhibit), but this photo is not about me.  It’s about Jason having the confidence to wear a skintight bodysuit, knowing that a zillion fanboys and girls would photograph him and splash it all over the Internets.  He is the most masculine man I have ever seen in this photo because of his confidence.”

“Andy M. here. Just one funny burly guy laughing at himself before other ppl do. cause if you want something done right you have to do it yourself. “

“I’m a size acceptance & HAES (Health At Every Size) advocate, but I still struggle with body acceptance issues from time to time. I could have chosen to edit out my arm rolls or my double chin, but that would just be an empty illusion. Besides, I think I look pretty hot in my Halloween outfit! ”

“Charlene  is my beautiful, exquisite wife.  She has lost half her body weight in the last 4 years, but regardless; she is beauty personified.  Like you, she exudes a sexiness, playfulness and absolute sensuality that weight cannot hide.   She has come to love herself AS herself and it shows inside and out.”

“its a silly picture but it was the first time in my life I felt good enough about me that I didn’t care how people saw me. the pic is goofy but it reminds me of how far Ive come about the way I feel about my body”

“i had been 130 all my life even after my boys , now I’m at 154 pounds and i had never felt better its not about. weight its about learning to love our self’s and our bodies I’m a proud thick 27 year old mommy of two “

I’ll give a free custom bra or pasties from my etsy OR 8×11 print (signed) of me or any of my photography to who ever comes up with the best body positive or fat appreciation photo; photoshopped or drawing. It can be of me if you want to do some fan art or it can be of you- if its of you, send me a small description about what body positive means to you or an experience you had. Email all submissions to Kadaver@Kadaverous.com, subject: Troll Contest. They will be displayed on my sites, including a body positive tumblr. I’m going to accept submissions till next Thursday (August 4th) so get on it!!!!

I’m doing this contest because NO ONE should ever treat anyone this way. And NO ONE should ever have their feelings hurt by some internet fuckwad. So I want to encourage all girls, thick or thin, to realize that no one can make you feel ashamed without your permission. When you allow someone to treat you a certain way, it becomes a standard for the rest of the population and thats just not okay. So lets tell internet trolls to suck their own tiny cocks and have some fun with this!

I’ve been harassed by an internet troll- I found this to be the funniest thing ever. EVER. I’m actually more offended that their photoshop sucked more than them thinking I’m fat. For one, fat isn’t an insult. its a descriptive word. I don’t get offended when people say I’m tall, so why would I when they say I’m fat? Get over it. Don’t ever let anyone, specially over the internet, make you feel bad. Ever. Its a waste of happiness and I don’t stand for it.

Edit:

got another one today. it went from trying to be witty to just plain idiotic. I’m flattered and all that you have nothing better than to make sketch accounts, harass people, and edit my images cause you don’t like fat people, but get a life.

Yeah, I’m fat. I’m chubby with rolls. And guess what? I love it. I love every bit of my body down to my stretch marks. Why don’t you go lurk some more, maybe my site and tumblr. Tons of pictures you can photoshop. But remember, you are the one taking the time out of your day to stare at my “fat ass” photos. Was your mom fat? Did she not love you enough?

VIVA LA FATASS BITCHES!

:] I had a lot of fun at Anime Expo. Friday was mellow. I sported my Pokebra (which you can find on my Etsy)

I have very limited funds until I get my first pay check so I spent a lot of time shopping and figuring out what were the one or two things I was going to buy, if at all. And I went to a few panels. Mainly the Gaiaonline.com panels. Left once the hall closed and went to the Bish’s. Went thrift store shopping and got an epic bright pink construction hat for $2.50! then cooked dinner and watched Titan A.E. Kate and I had some Smirnoff Ice and since we were both beat after a long day we canceled our plans of Soco and smores and basically crashed out. Today was less mellow. Being Saturday the hall was PACKED. I got there a little early and caught a voice acting panel that just happened to be hosted by one of the guys from Rifftrax. Which was awesome all on its own. Then got the Gaia panel. Hit the floor and got a few last minute things including a Megaman figure for my boyfriend and a wig for when I cosplay as Wicked Lady. then headed home. Sat in a few hours of traffic because the 5 south likes making people miserable apparently. am home now. Relaxing. Going to bed early. And going to work tomorrow at 5 am. All photos taken will be posted on Gunslingerphotography.com

On Tuesday night, I won miss June at Tiki Tuesday with Menage a Trois at Don the Beachcomber. (My friend Celeste’s jazz band preforms there and holds a monthly pinup contest) I’ve been going every month doing photos and helping out etc. Hopefully next month I’ll be vending! Excited. I’ll probably be offering special photoshoots to the next winners and some fun stuff.

I was really flattered that I won, a lot of very awesome curvy girls were in the contest this month and any of them would have deserved to win. I hope to see all those lovely ladies next month!

Check out the amazing band and event: menageatroisjazz.com

We then moved on to the vendor booths, which were pretty cool. Ran into a lot of girls from Cuties for a Cause and Hot Bitches 4 Life. All lovely ladies. Bought some adorable cupcake bows. I spent very minimal money this year and was proud of myself for that one.
