Midsize content creator Shelby Scott (@shelbysaywhatblog) vlogs about style and self-love.
As a size 12/14 (US), Scott knows that finding beachwear options can be challenging for midsize customers.
Often, women are encouraged to “hide” their bellies and any other parts of their bodies with curves.
But according to one of Scott’s videos, feeling embarrassed about your body’s shape is no longer in fashion.
She stood in a cute pink two-piece, looking disgruntled.
“Can we please normalize tummies that hang below our swimsuit bottoms?” Scott begged.
She reached down to the area beneath her bikini briefs, lifting the elastic leg band to “tuck and suck” her stomach fully into the fabric.
Scott lamented “all these high-rise bottoms” that left her “fupa,” slang for “fat upper pelvic area,” exposed.
“I’m constantly having to tuck my fupa into my swimsuit bottoms,” Scott said, and she was tired of it.
She’d much rather wear a swimsuit that rocks her “fupalicious” body.
Though Scott may not have realized it when she filmed her video, other women were also desperately tired of the high-rise swimsuits.

“It’s honestly cuter with the belly showing,” said one fan. “It’s just so feminine and soft, I love it.”
“Oh, never tuck! It’s allll cute,” another viewer wrote.
A handful of viewers attested to a savvy hack that made midsize swimwear more comfortable.
“I saw someone wear the bottoms backward,” a viewer said. “Kinda genius!”
Many women said they’d embraced their “fupalicious” silhouettes ages ago.
“I have a mom belly,” one said. “I’m gonna normalize it no matter what.”
Another amazed mom wrote back, “I thought I was the only one. Since having kids my stomach just hangs!”
Several commenters confirmed Scott looked great in her swimsuit, no matter how she wore it.
And if she didn’t want to “tuck,” she didn’t have to.
“We can do whatever we want,” one viewer declared.
