Why read it?
1 author picked Fat Talk as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Few people write as clearly and cogently as Virginia Sole-Smith about the way thinness is the reigning beauty standard across the globe, and how punishing and marginalizing that standard is for those who aren’t “straight sized.”
This book is not just sweeping and rigorously investigated, it is also chock full of practical tips for addressing fatphobia in our own thinking, in our own families, and in the wider culture. There’s a reason this book was an instant New York Times bestseller. I could not recommend it more full-throatedly.
From Elise's list on challenging beauty standards and diet culture.
