So why is it that fashion is geared towards people who are not a size 18?

That's a really great question.

And one that I still haven't been able to fully figure out other than anti-fat bias, other than literally wanting to oppress fat people.

Because there's no other reason for it.

Not only... are 68% over a size 18, over 70% are over a size 14, 16.

And so you're looking at the vast majority of people, especially women in the United States and who buys a lot of clothes, right? Women are plus size people.

So most of us have bigger bodies that don't fit into the clothes that are sold in stores.

What do you say to folks who are like, I can't afford these higher end clothes?
