13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl by Mona Awad with Serena Nangia
Manage episode 322959190 series 2625030
In this conversation with Serena Nangia we get vulnerable. I think part of the reason for that was this book, 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl by Mona Awad, was personal and triggering. Having said that, we both had really different perspectives because Serena never dieted and grew up in a household with someone who struggled with an eating disorder whereas, I had an eating disorder and spent a few years in a straight sized body. Get ready for a powerful conversation where we cover:
- Serena's body image journey
- Learning to take care of herself while lifting up the voices of others
- Finding support as a fat person
- Dating and having sex as a fat person
- The thin gaze on the fat body
- Trying on clothes in a fat body
- The problem with before and after photos
- The fetishization of fatness
- The experience of watching her sister go through an eating disorder
- Exercise when it is a disordered behaviour
- The unsatisfying ending of the book
Keep reading everyone!
