What's also suffocating, as a fat person, is the endless body commentaries in the media. Worse now, with the new drugs. Also, everyone on Fedi who says <insert an -ism> is bad but then happily posts about how a loathed public figure is so fat...yeah, we see you.
Great article in The Guardian from Rebecca Shaw:
"We should be allowed to lose weight without having to provide you with a moral explanation for how we did it. We should be allowed to remain fat without having to convince you that we are sufficiently miserable about it. We should be allowed to exercise, eat, dress, date, and just go about our lives without our bodies becoming public property. Fat people should not have to audition for your approval. We are human beings, our bodies are none of your business, and you need to keep your big fat noses out of our lives."
