Wenn Essen (und Nichtessen) zur Sucht wird - Körper, geschichtet

In 'Fat Is a Feminist Issue,' Susie Orbach delves into the cultural and psychological roots of fatness, exposing how weight and body image are linked to gender dynamics and power structures. The book argues that issues surrounding weight are not merely personal health concerns but are deeply entrenched in societal norms and expectations that particularly affect women. Orbach critiques diet culture from a feminist standpoint, highlighting how it perpetuates gender roles and controls women's bodies. She advocates for body autonomy and a healthier relationship with food, promoting intuitive eating and self-compassion. The book is a call for societal change, urging readers to transform their perceptions and contribute to a more inclusive and accepting society.
