About Us

Society of Fat Mermaids was founded by Chè Monique, DC burlesque performer, lifelong fatty and founder of Chocolate City Burlesque and Cabaret. We are here to:

Encourage you to find your inner merbabe and embrace a joyous wholehearted life.
Diversify the image of merfolk.
Remind the world that FAT PEOPLE and FAT MERMAIDS are sexy, powerful, intelligent, capable, beautiful, free spirited, fun loving and worthy.
Spread messages of diversity and body positivity in a fun way.

We are in our infancy. We will grow into a vibrant community and a valuable resource. Sign up for our mailing list for updates and please share the website with anyone you think may be interested.
