[quote=Anonymous]I just read the NYT article… late to the party here but I feel the article was written with a lot of opinion and liberty calling out a successful woman. The opinions that her success is due to her WHITENESS and wealth is appalling. Then the conversation that she has an eating disorder because she is so thin and the accusations that she doesn’t eat her own recipes is based on a false narrative. When did it become acceptable for a women to comment on another women’s weight. If it isn’t ok to call out someone for being fat why would it be ok to call out someone who is to thin. Why is it ok for a person of color to make accusations and question the validity of someone’s skills, accuse them of cultural appropriation, and question one’s interpretation of her recipes? Admiring an art piece renders many different interpretations. Is that not acceptable!!! If a white person makes any mention of someone of color.. no matter the topic they are racist. This shit is out of hand. This article does nothing but tear Tiegan Gerard down with insinuations that she is a fraud and a fake! And… name one celebrity who has lived a normal life and with their successes has not gone out and purchased designer clothes, shoes and handbags. It’s a bit of a reach to attack every part of who she is as a person just because others do not have the same success as she has had. [/quote]
