Anti-fatness is not the same as anti-blackness, because at the end of the day people have the choice to change their lifestyle from being obese to getting healthy and in shape. As opposed to being black, which is not a choice, Nobody chose to be black because that is just genetic, but being fat is a choice and you have the right and to say so on whether or not you want to lose weight, that is a choice, but when it comes to skin color, you cannot control that like a person can control their weight

What! So, I can’t want to be fit? I have never once associated fat with race. But go off,🤣the rails. Just no!🙄

Back in the day (mostly in Europe) being FAT was concerned highly 'attractive' and desirable because people believed it signified high fertility. Just look at some the Ancient Art (especially 'French' works). Can you say... Henry the 8th or Queen Victoria or even Mary Todd! Being 'fat' was associated with WEALTH at one point in history. There was also the fact that thousands (even millions) of years ago, people had to survive in HARSH COLD climates where being able to 'store fat' was a _Game-changer._ However, even the earliest 'doctors' believed carrying all that excess weight was UNHEALTHY; therefore it has NOTHING TO DO WITH SKIN COLOR! The World Health Organization has only RECENTLY begun to see a 'trend toward obesity in Africa', which shows us that the people who lived in WARM/HOT climates didn't really need to STORE MUCH FAT! So to the young lady... *_This is about YOUR Peeps... NOT MINE!_*

However , there is a tribe that fattens their young girls to prepare them for marriage and children, which in that tribe is considered fertility and beauty, however , the weight that is gained is deliberately developed to the body's type . Basically the body is carefully molded, and massaged . This is were the fertility dolls came from .

They can do something about being fat but us who are black were born this way this color we can't change that. That logic alone shows that they are just jealous of us that is the reason we got brought up. We live rent-free in their heads. And then last thing being curvy and fat are 2 completely different things. Curvy is usually seen as more attractive and beautiful and that part about our women being more curvy absolutely true a lot of our beautiful black queens are curvy. Curvy not fat.

For the most part you can control obesity (unless you have a metabolic disorder) but uh you can't control the complexion you're born with!

According to the systems in place they say that the thick black woman is still over weight and is facing obesity , when in fact the BMI system was designed for either Asian or young preteen white female boy bodies. Also the fat woman on the right have been the preferable type of some black men. And they are the ones that have called those white women thick. So now the think they have a sort of pass because they are getting poked by a black man calling them all the things a black woman would be.

The woman is onto something, particularly when you take into account BMI only looks at Caucasian. She is misled as its not rooted in anti blackness but the very strict guidelines of western patriarchal standards

She isn't wrong, or the first person to talk about this. IIRC, Khadija Mbowe has made a video essay about this history. Basically, the key takeaway is that yes, in Europe it was seen as good to be fat because that suggested wealth, but that has changed. "When and why" is tied to slavery and anti blackness. That's all that is being talked about here. A lot of people seem to have not understood what is being explained here.

So, both WM in a row were wrong AF. The BM after them was actually more on the money.

This is the comment I was waiting on bc I think she’s right. When I was growing up, if you were fat people would say, “she eats out a lot” or “she’s on food stamps.” And if you ate out a lot, you were considered lazy. And as we all know food stamps and welfare is considered a black thing but that’s not necessarily true. So, culturally I understand where she’s coming from. It’s not true but if you dig a little deeper into the truth of what she’s saying, sadly there are some facts there.

Why is it that when a demographic of ppl or a labeled group of ppl experience a negative they try to root it in antiblackness as if one struggle compares to what black ppl have endured

I understood what she was trying to say. For example, American clothing sizes were established during the great depression. They did a sample size of 200 women which included black women. But the final analysis excluded Black woman who were, EVEN THOUGH there was massive hunger, were curvy, thicker, healthier. She was TRYING to associate the beauty standards which ARE based on European standards, and beauty standards includes weight. Debbie Allen, legendary dancer and choreographer retells the story of how she was denied opportunities in Ballet because she was "to big" but she explains is that they meant she was too black. Since Sarah Baartman, who was in a ZOO BECAUSE of her "fatness" was displayed because of it. It's easy to gloss over it because it is seems to say thar "fitness" belongs to whiteness. When what she is ACTUALLY saying is the STANDARDS of fitness is based on Western Patriarchal European standards. Lastly, the thinness that is associated with whiteness only came into popularity after the English model Twiggy became the "standard " in 1968.

I'm Black and I don't find her take to be all the way wrong. I believe fatphobia is often more about elitism and perception through the gaze of white supremacy, but I do believe race can factor into that. None of the included clips consider nuance and instead, just make light of fatphobia, which isn't some made up thing.

I agree with her because in Africa bring plus size is not an insult, its not a beauty standard to be skinny.

This is simply ignorance trying to sound intelligent. Not worth giving her the attention she desires 🙄.

She’s not lying.. these takes in these responses are oversimplifications ..

Oh, and fat black women were never oversexualized. Fat black women were called mammies, and desexualized.

Wait??? Since when being overweight is the same as being black?????

I understand her point. She's not wrong. Sarah Baartman (look her up) was put on display for her body parts. The BMI is based on a Caucasian body type. As a black woman, I have extra junk in my trunk, full lips and big boobs. My doctor is always saying I should get to a healthy weight. He means well. However, unless a new BMI is created to truly represent the different body types around the globe, I and people like me, will always be considered obese. I don't intend to get ride of my butt or my boobs and those who have it like I do are usually NOT Caucasian. They see us and dislike the fact that our parts are not store bought. It's in our genes. Their hatred is from jealousy. They actually have pants with butt padding and injections for fuller lips in an effort to look like us. Can you believe it? ENVY!

Child what!??!!!

*WE LOVE YOU TOO* ❤

We are too reactive, she's not wrong but she needed to realise that she can't be the one talking about this when she's not black. Anti blackness has layers, one of them is fatphobia. An average weight black person in the eyes of W.supremacy is obese and overweight. This also plays into why cops in the US attack young black men, it's because they deem them older than what they are because of their bodies. It's why they think black girls are "grown" or too fast, there's books on this topic lets seek them out and read them

OMG what have we done now as black people give me a massive break

Someone who is Caucasian once told me that she had gained weight and was single because Caucasian guys didn’t want her. She said she couldn’t go to the gym coz she didn’t have time. Then finished off with so I guess I will just start dating black men coz they don’t mind fat women. BOMBASTIC SIDE EYE was all she got from me.

I think that lady did a poor job explaining herself. What is considered a healthy for black women, is fat in the eyes of European/ American medicine. A black woman’s curves are only trendy now. Back in the day it was criticized and put on display in freak/sideshows. Thicker bodies are associated with black people. And the disgust with thicker bodies can be traced to the disdain of black people. That lady isn’t wrong. This is why it’s so important to be educated on our history! However, I will say modern fat phobia has more to do with actual obesity, than thickness/ race, because so many other( than black) are buying bodies to look like us.

"Girl, ain't no way you got all that a$$ and thighs into a size 2." Then they'd make me produce my clothing tags. Hence the expression "thick thin." Which makes no sense! Ultimately my smaller waist to hip ratio had just created an optical illusion. When ppl look at photos of my younger self, they say I was a little brick house. Now, I'm just a pile of cement. LOL!
