People do everything they can to hide their weight, physically and number-wise, to the point that it’s considered rude to ask how much someone weighs and especially so to ask that of a woman, but then somehow fatphobia doesn’t exist? If fatphobia isn’t real, then why is your height something that easily slips off the tongue at the simplest ask yet your weight is information forever locked away out of shame? Why are you afraid for others to know your weight? Is it because…you’ll be judged? Huh, that sounds like we might live in a society where your weight is considered as part of your value as a person. If I wasn’t careful, I’d even say that creates a world where fatphobia is a form of common oppression!
