fat activism is extremely fucking important to me. fat phobia almost killed me. lots and lots of girls have EDs and its so fucked up that nobody, least of all doctors, want to talk about the role of culture in that. i tried and tried but i could never overcome anorexia when i believed i had it because of fundamental issues w/ my personality and not like, bc the ridiculous world was targeting me with incessant propaganda. ppl suggest that so many more girls have EDs because we’re like petty vapid dumbasses when its much more likely because we’re intentionally made to feel weight obsessed.

fat shaming is a tool of the patriarchy. keeping that in mind is literally the only way i was able to shed the extremely strong compulsion i once had to crash diet
