Meet Kevin A Black Bear Model & Blogger

Customers and critics thought American Eagle Outfitters decided to exhibit greater variety in their model selection by presenting guys of diverse shapes and curves modeling their new colourful underwear a few months ago.

Unfortunately, this fantastic notion was an April Fool's hoax that outraged a lot of people, and their arguments were (and still are) justified.

People, particularly the bear community, were ecstatic to see bigger men featured in a prominent fashion company like American Eagle, and learning that it was all a hoax was not cute at all.

However, their message of male body affirmation is timeless.

We don't have many channels teaching us that we should accept our bodies as plump men, and a six pack isn't everyone's definition of beauty.

Which takes us to the video at the bottom of the page, in which we meet Kelvin, a black bear who is a fashion blogger and a butt selfie pro who is taking that message to heart.
