Fat sex! How does society view fat bodies and how do we view our own fat bodies when it comes to sex and desirability? What impact does that have on the way we relate to others sexually? I talk about how sex was one of the final ways anti-fat bias had a hold on me as desirability is key to seld esteem. TW: mention of fatphobic beliefs about fat bodies. This episode was first aired in December 2020.
