“Describing a body as fat is not the problem. The problem starts when we say a fat body is somehow less desirable, less worthy. It’s not the plain meaning we assign to a word—it’s the value we attach to it that makes it good or bad. So dark and light, fat and thin, old and young by themselves are mere words, but they aren’t, are they?”
