I just took a long lunch hour and ran to the bookstore to grab your book!!! So excited and can’t wait to read it! Very funny, though, it’s shelved with the diet books at Border’s! Made me laugh!
Thank you so much for the book, I just bought and read it and fuck me running, but my anxiety level has dropped in half, half I tell ya! I don’t know what I will do with all the time I have since I won’t be obsessing about my ass. But I have signed up to become a rower and hopefully compete in masters class rowing this summer. How frigging cool is that? Thank you also for this website!
I'm on a mission here to let you know that fat people are not your enemy. And skinny people aren't your enemy either.
Here, the body is a political one no matter its size or shape. We are going to unpack society's standards of beauty, the oppression of the dominant social paradigm when it comes to body conformity, and talk about clothes. Maybe even makeup. Because I do love makeup.
Here, I hope, we will come to a place of acceptance. Acceptance for our own bodies and for the bodies of others.
Got something to say? Contact me. All hate mail, particularly fat-phobic rants, is subject to mocking.
