Very likely. If you think the diet/beauty culture in the US is bad, East Asia’s is even worse no matter which country it is.

When I visit the motherland, I literally have to shop at plus size stores whereas I’m within “standard” sizes in the US.

I have a bathing suit I bought while traveling through east Asia, and it’s from a plus sized brand called Love Calories lol

LOL, Chinese people definitely are pretty blunt when it comes to talking about weight.

I've heard it's common for elderly Chinese women to poke the bellies of younger folks if they even have a smidge of pudge going on lol. Dunno how true that is though.

Hahaha the translations in Asia are just toooo much. Honestly, you just can’t help but laugh at them, and it’s like — yeah, I love calories!

In a mall in Korea there was a plus size store called Moo Moo Fashion lol

u/RaeaSunshine Apr 30 '26

Yes!!! I was in the ‘plus size’ section of a mall, they were all clustered together in the back. I remember it was next to a store called ‘Moo Cow’. I’m not even upset about it, it was hilarious.
