all these thin white cis women climbing atop soapboxes screaming "EYE am a REGISTERED DIETICIAN, and YOURE RIGHT, weight itself is NOT a health indicator!" like thanks for being a town crier but im not sure the professional paternalism is vital to fats who kno and already said it
does that make you feel like you're "one of the good ones?" because i repeatedly see thin people--and fat ppl as well--join in the spirit of anti-diet in conversations with fat people, but bring NOTHING to the thin and/or healthist and/or fat hating people in their lives. NOTHING
do you, registered dietician, only talk anti-diet when you're being PAID to tell it to a client? anti-fat ppl rarely take fat liberationists at their word when we say the same shit you're spouting from atop your degree. listen for this next one:
yr voice here just lends itself to the paradigm that fat ppl are not reliable reporters on the conditions of our own lives; that the only ppl who ARE reliable sources are THIN SCIENTISTS. thanks for the scientific back up, but fat ppl in fatpol arent the ones who need to hear it
i have so many thin people in my life--loved ones--who will comisserate with me on antifat/healthist media but none of them say shit to anyone else when they encounter it in person. you're cowards and i am betrayed and hurt every time i see it and hear it
if youre thin and u see diet talk/antifat bs in your life, in your coworkers, friends, or family, and you didn't say anything to those people, i don't want to hear about it. i dont want to go "ugh, eyeroll" w you. i dont want to hear about how lackluster and disappointing you are
i DEFINITELY dont wanna hear about your disordered behaviors around food that are rooted and blooming in fatphobia. i dont want to hear about your calorie counting or your food vs. exercise moralizing or your fatphobic body image issues
love you, have a nice day 😀
