Multimedia Plus This! Show Is Changing the Way Media Sees Women Sizes 14 and up
Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) June 11, 2017 -- 67% of American women are a size 14 or above. The moment has arrived for media, entertainment and fashion to catch up with content for this under-served majority. Plus This!, the multimedia brand spearheaded by actor/influencers Kathy Deitch and Eva Tingley, features pop-culture, fashion, and current debates regarding food and health, the societal negativity and stereotypes that surround women who dare to take up a little bit of space. http://www.PlusThisShow.com
Plus This! shares body positive news and entertainment and delves into potentially sensitive issues regarding the 67 percent of women who are plus size and the media's perception of them in a refreshingly open, funny format, making even the most taboo subjects informative and entertaining. “In our own lives, we have no-holds-barred conversations with each other regarding weight and body image. I’m tired of hearing about things from a formal scripted, clinical, or textbook perspective. Open conversation takes the stigma out of these issues and makes everyone feel a little more at ease,” says Tingley. Deitch agrees, “Having to be candid and off-the-cuff on Plus This! makes me face my own struggles with radical self-acceptance head on; the self-confidence I’ve gained in just a short time on the air has been extraordinary and a lovely side-effect of hosting. Body positivity is a fast-growing movement and we enjoy keeping our audience ahead of the curve.” Plus This! Show Clip
