It seems very in to dunk on the fat acceptance/body positivity movement at the moment, I guess with the return of all things early 2000s the fat hatred was bound to come back in force, and I needed a break from the constant barrage of “you're delusional if you think people should treat fatties like human beings” that has been my online experience lately so I reached for this book.
Hagen was easy for me to agree with as I find her views are generally aligned with mine (as in you don't have to find fat people attractive you just have to treat them with the same dignity and respect you expect to be treated with) so it was more of a comfort read than anything for me. She doesn't claim the body positive movement either so if you're not here for getting told to just love your body this one might be up your alley.
