WELCOME TO THE FRIENDS PAGE for the Babecamp Intensive in san francisco september 23-24!
VISION
I am all about women living epic, magical lives on their terms in the body they're in right now. Other interests include: smashing patriarchy, eating fancy desserts, and helping to build a world where every single person - regardless of size or health status - lives a life free from discrimination and bigotry. There are no weight limits to my politics. This intensive is about supporting you so you can become the HBIC of your life. Together we will break up with diet culture - and the mindset that keeps us in restriction mode - so you can take up your rightful place in the babe pantheon. Ready to register?

ABOUT THE HBIC (HEAD BABE IN CHARGE), VIRGIE TOVAR
I'm a 250-pound unapologetic feminist who loves tiny shorts and bright lipstick. Fifteen years ago feminism saved my life. I stopped dieting and started living about six years ago when I met a bunch of rad queers who taught me about the power of loving my body. I completed a Master's degree based on my research on how body size and race affect gender. I've written extensively on body image and fat discrimination, and I travel globally speaking about these issues.
