Tess Holliday Is Here To Tell You 'Fat Folks Have Bomb Sex' Too

Tess Holliday got real about why she’s so sexual on social media and upfront about her sex life in general during a recent appearance on E!’s “Busy Tonight ” late night show that aired Wednesday. 

“I think it’s important to tell people that fat folks have bomb sex,” the body-positive model told host Busy Philipps .

“Like, we need sexy lingerie … we need options; like, I want to feel sexy, I want to be sexy, whether I’m having sex or not, if it’s just for me in like my home or if I want to go out and show it. The world just wants to cover up marginalized bodies, and I’m not here for it.”

“That’s why I use my social media to basically tell people to, like, stop hiding, stop listening to society,” the 33-year-old added. “They want to keep you down because that’s how they keep furthering, like, crap and selling you diet crap.”

“Just be yourself and own it,” Holliday said a message her nearly 2 million followers are sure to love. 

Holliday’s comments echoed a message she’s shared before on her Instagram account that comes from her book The Not So Subtle Art Of Being A Fat Girl .

“When I saw [the photos that photographer Anastasia Garcia. . took] & how hot (& obviously unretouched) they are, I was reminded of a ‘Tess Holliday’s Advice for Life’ that are all throughout my book,” she wrote on Instagram.

“It goes: ‘Fat people have sex. A lot of it. And it’s really fucking good.’ That’s all.”
