Being plus-sized was once seen to be a symbol of affluence and slim persons were thought to be poor especially in the traditional sector before things changed. People in the 21st-century now desire to be thin but there is a class that still stands out as plus size and rock in their beautiful bodies. Some hours ago Kenyan journalist Ngugi Karanja hosted two plus size ladies Agnes and Charity who talked about their size, challenges they face and misconception people have about them.
According to the two, Agnes who is the white pullover is 240 kilograms while Charity in kitenge dress is 130 kilograms. According to the two ladies they face so many challenges in Kenya because people see them as extraordinary and they are always looking at them when walking on the roads. They also talked about the challenge of dating where many men are not ready to date them and they only want to experience how it feels to be with a big woman and not to date them for marriage. They also have a challenge of finding their size of clothes because it is very hard.
They also talked about the misconception people have that they are big because they eat very much which is not a true. They said they can even stay for a whole day without food but unfortunately they can’t loose weight. They said this works because they have a low metabolism rate compared to slim people who eat more than them. They also said that men fear dating them because of the body size but they should said they are like other ladies although they need more strong men who can lift them.
Agnes is therefore seeking help from Kenyans to help her lose the weight because she feels she too heavy. She is also looking for a strong man do date and she want a sober man who is between 35-45 years of age. Watch the full video below.
