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

3.0

---

I read this book with my dietician and it was super insightful. The experience of being anxious about one’s body and how it’s perceived isn’t new to me, but as a straight sized person, I was pretty disgusted by the blatant hate and casual bullying that fat folks face in their day to day lives. It’s unreal. From airplanes to doctors offices, the hate is pervasive and unfounded given the misconception that fatness = laziness.
