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

challenging hopeful medium-paced

4.5

A really helpful guide to fat-acceptance that dispells a lot of myths. Especially recommended for straight sized (thinner) folks as well as small-fat and mid-fat (that’s me, I learned!) folks who may have experienced some fat shaming but may not have experienced the full range of material consequences that people in larger fategories do. The book also does a good job of addressing intersections of fatness with race, class, gender and gender identity. The author also recommended a movie I already watched and enjoyed and there was other good practical info here.
