Plus-size model Gracie Bon has started something of a debate over the size of plane seats by saying that planes should have bigger seats to accommodate ‘customers of size’ like herself. Don’t just mug her off right away though – hear her out:

Hmm. Can’t argue with that logic. “Bodies are changing” and she literally needs two seats – one for each cheek – otherwise she won’t fit on the plane. What is she meant to do? Ride in the cargo hold?
My favourite part of the clip is this guy who gives zero F’s about the camera and is just ogling the hell out of head on with no shame. I like how he sticks his arm on the armrest too so he can feel a little brush of her jelly against it:
At the end of the day though, if you can afford to spend your money on BBLs then you can probably afford to buy two plane seats every time you travel.
The only other option for Gracie Bon is to fly exclusively with SouthWest Airlines, who have just introduced a new policy where they gift an extra free seat to overweight passengers. Yes, seriously.
