She gained significant attention last year when she advocated for free, additional seats on planes for overweight people. During one of her flights, she noted that she and her fiancé felt discriminated against due to the small seats and short seat belts. The influencer admitted that there were also unkind remarks from other passengers.
The plus-size influencer's appeal
Now, she has highlighted another important issue. She published a new video on TikTok, where as many as 137,500 users follow her. It has already been viewed almost 50,000 times.
She pointed out the amenities that should be present in every pool to allow everyone to enter and exit comfortably. Specifically, she refers to handrails.
The traveller cares for plus-size people
"No handrails at pools? That’s not inclusive. Demand accessibility for all," the plus-size influencer appealed. In the video, she demonstrated how the handrails and stairs make it easier for her to enter and exit the pool.
Interestingly, the Canadian disabled the ability to comment on the video. Perhaps she decided due to the unfavourable opinions under previous video materials.
