The girlies unpack fatphobia and the history of fatness. They discuss the racist roots of modern-day body standards, how we can think about anti-fat bias through the lens of eating disorder recovery, and lament the failings of the American medical system (again). Digressions include very little because we are serious researchers and get straight to the point this time.
