[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Because I am one of those cranky feminists who would like people to worry about real problems rather than whether their bodies are acceptable to patriarchy.[/quote] And you decided to come to "Diet and Exorcise" to tell us that? :roll: [/quote] I care about fitness. I'm interested in exercise as a way to feel better and in food/diet as a way to feel better. So in theory, I am the sort of person who should find this forum useful. Unfortunately, this is actually a "weight loss and self-hatred" forum. Plus plenty of fat hatred.[/quote] My suspicion is that you would feel very differently if this fellow woman wasn't using the word "skinny" next to fat. Or skinny in any shape or form. Not very feminist of you.[/quote] I have no objection to the words "skinny" or "fat." They describe appearance. I don't like it when people attribute other values to them. "I probably look fit to other people because I'm skinny, but I need to get stronger, because I can't [do thing more muscles would enable me to do]."[/quote]
