Twitter user Mike Byrd felt like men of a certain size–in his case over 6 feet tall and well north of 200-pounds–weren’t getting enough shine, so he decided to start #BigGuyTwitter, a hashtag for his fellow big and tall brethren.
I represent for 250lbs+ Twitter.

While Byrd later wrote that he wanted to encourage others with #BigGuyTwitter, the tag quickly took off and became a place for big dudes–and those who love them–to share.
If you're proud to be a part of #BigGuyTwitter, post pictures for the ladies.
