On November 11, the influencer spoke to her more than 450,000 followers about how public spaces are not designed to accommodate larger bodies that fall outside societal norms.
The video shows Gracie attempting to sit in the seats, displaying her hips that do not fit into the small space. The influencer makes a disappointed expression.
“When you want to ride a roller coaster. I tried the seat test, only XL-sized people will understand. The seatbelt didn’t close; these things happen to me because I have big legs,” Gracie explained.
“Please, just make the seats bigger,” she wrote in English and Spanish in the video caption. Despite her concerns, some followers criticized Gracie for sharing her problems.
“Stop turning everything into a problem! The world doesn’t revolve around you!” one user said. “The world isn’t the problem and doesn’t have to adapt to you. Improve yourself, friend,” added another harshly.
“They should make the seats bigger! It’s 2024, and we exist in all sizes,” one user defended.
