Mags fashion tv-stars adverts...you know the drill. Cultural expectations and societal forces that tell us how to look dress and move if we want to be regarded as adequate, attractive or worthy. It is no wonder that, irrespective of fact we internalise the ideals then discipline and regulate our behaviour so as not to offend social norms. Being fat sucks. The facts are out there now hows about a phat revolution ehpipihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11950236848520282674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6002588004087674841.post-47503673301974836842009-06-26T14:01:44.761+12:002009-06-26T14:01:44.761+12:00And why is it still called 'overweight' th...And why is it still called 'overweight' then?hip to the beathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12123265996395226073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6002588004087674841.post-23856182886132110952009-06-26T13:25:07.828+12:002009-06-26T13:25:07.828+12:00There's always been controversy around this.

When I was at university there were always 90% of research supporting exactly this conclusion (it's not a new piece of knowledge), but our bigotry makes us refuse to believe the evidence. So they do more studies. Doctors are kind of taught to not pay attention to the research evidence around this to a certain degree. There were similar things with regards to physed though. Our gyms are full of degreed Physeders spouting shit that they know is untrue - but marketing and $$ dictates that they continue.Tankgrrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16462654467070790295noreply@blogger.com
