People who are actively engaged in weight loss absolutely treat fat people differently and often worse. The first reinforcement that we get for weight loss is near universal affirmation from almost everyone we know. I do think we have to be able to separate out these conversations between like what do you need to do to sort of protect your own peace of mind and then also be able to have concurrent strategy to change those conditions.
To celebrate the release of her new book, Aubrey takes Mike on a tour through the statistics and debates surrounding weight bias. Anyone interested in body positivity, airline seats, 'skinny shaming' or the sugar content of melons is legally obligated to join us.
