What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat by Aubrey Gordon

emotional funny informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

In comparison to her 2023 book “You Just Need to Lose Weight”, this non-fiction work by Gordon is deeply emotional, telling personalizing stories that are striking to those who have never experienced anti-fat bigotry. Gordon does not try to justify her fatness, but instead points out the abusiveness in the demand for justification. She moves beyond and even outright criticizes “fat acceptance” and provides meaningful solutions for equity and justice.
