I'm not trying to burst your bubble or anything but during this period (like royals and stuff not included power power) women who are fat are considered "ugly" this was their generation actually, in our generation things our different now and we can change that, but I think the author just wanted to follow the stereotype of what happen during that period since the plot itself takes place with royalties
[SPOILER WARNING] so the current fl is actually the og sylvia but she doesn't know it. There was this thing with the demon thingy (or w/e her dad sent her off to) and he offered to let her reincarnate into the past (same world) but she denied. She ended up getting reincarnated into earth (our world) in which her world was a novel but after she died, she reincarnated into her world again. So she reincarnated 2 times but she only remembers her previous life.
and yeah i 100% agree with what you said
I would agree with your statement if this story committed to the "historical/pseudo realistic era". The MC wears clothes that would get her killed as a noble . Don't get me wrong, I support all sort of clothing in a modern setting but tbe author made the setting historical, made everyone around her dress appropriately to that era and then made the MC dress however she wants and the kicker is that no one around her notices and makes a remark about it.
I mentioned that to say that the author is being inconsistent: if they want to use the historical stereotypes and beauty standards etc... they don't get to make an MC that obviously wears inappropriate clothing (again, inappropriate by the depicted society's standards) and even make it seem normal even though not a single other person dresses like the MC.
This leads me to believe that the "fat=ugly" is the author's belief and not the commitment to the setting. Simarly to that, the author showd the MC wearing all those clothes to appeal to readers and make the MC seem modern and attractive.
I see, I didn't actually think it through, and skipped to conclusion because of the historical era plot, that made me think this was how things be in the royal era..thank you for your context
“I became the Ugly Lady” where?! Because as far as I know you were only fat NOT ugly. And then they had the audacity to “melt” her fat away in the bathtub? And ALL the other characters started liking her + respecting her afterwards? This is a slap in the face to all your readers who are actually fat! Also, why is this not a do over webtoon instead? It’s unfair that the original girl suffered all her life because she was “ugly” and now new girl was only “ugly” for 0.2 seconds before she gets everything handed to her on a silver platter.
