A plus-size video blogger is hitting back at commenters who've taken issue with the fact that someone of her size is happy to wear bikinis in front of the camera.

Loey Lane, who talks about beauty and plus-size fashion on her YouTube channel and Instagram page, came up with a facetious list of 'why fat girls shouldn't wear bikinis', based on some of the hatred she has received in response to her fuller figure.

The 22-year-old said that this issue has come up for her quite a lot lately, and she wanted to take the time to address it properly with her 347,000 followers – and any opinionated critics who might also be watching.
