Fatphobia is rooted in anti-black racism.

Brehs the proof in the pudding. Just watch the video. You can even do it on mute. The point of it is not to say Black Women or people are naturally fat, but the standard of beauty in Europe changed once there was continuous contact with African people, specifically women.

Having a fuller body with curves was emblematic of African heritage and weren’t aligned with European puritanical views at the time. This being so, African bodies were still emulated through dressing which is why we have sht like this

You see how the back lift up?

Fast forward to more recent times, the word bimbo has been adopted to usually mean white women with large breasts, tiny waists, a phat ass, big lips, a tan, and hardly any clothes

I assume to many of you none of this is connected. But Bimbo was a term originally appropriated from African peoples by colonizing Germans and used in reference to the women.

This familiar to you??



To this day they are affirming their beliefs of Blackness and Whiteness being synonymous with Good Bad Dangerous Safe Crazy and Respectable.

Naomi Osaka not even thin nor white like at all.

If you’re only thinking of SSBBW ass btches you missing the point. The woman, the Black woman herself who did the research isn’t even fat. This isn’t some blue haired new aged feminist bullsht. This real sht she talkin bout.

TL:DR - I wouldn’t so much say that Racism is the cause of Fatphobia but rather there is a story about women’s bodies that is racialized exactly like skin color and hair texture. What the thread is about isn’t so much fatophobia as it is Phatophobia ()

Weed philosophy lmaooo didn’t watch the vid won’t but obesity is a national concern.

I don’t know if it’s rooted in racism, but something happened for thick women to stop being valued.

Fat chicks were the shyt in the olden days.

This is 'what happened'.....​

Given the health issues across the black race and the lack of access to quality healthy foods in some communities, do you think doing historical fear-mongering about white perceptions and exaggerations(like in a lot o that artwork) on west African physiques, is the hill you wanna die on? What percentage of obese black women are carrying their natural, curvy, pre-fast food/pre-chemically induced body types? The black community across the globe has largely embraced curvy women. And the beauty standards have shifted towards women with curvy physiques and highe BMI. At least when it comes to the black community, fatphobia doesn’t seem to be the problem given the body standards we see on IG. It’s been an opposite trend where white media is giving more shine to bigger black women and using black women as the face of body pos movements, even to the detriment of these women’s personal health. I agree that medical fatphobia is a thing, and it can be detrimental to black women who naturally have higher BMI’s than other women. But I ask again, in 2021, what percentage of blacks people with health problems that stem from naturally holding higher BMI’s as opposed to shytty diets?

Venus and Serena and other athletically built black female athletes have been called masculine by whites for their lack of feminine fat deposits and for their muscular build. I’ve seen muscular and athletic black women shamed on here. Fat phobia as it relates to the black community has been a long overused boogeyman to keep black people from making modifications to our lifestyles. “She ain’t fat, she’s just thicc”. “Real men like women with curves”.

Non-equivalents all throughout his post. The same BMI boogeyman that has been used for decades to excuse poor choices amongst black ppl.

We're literally watching entire industries of half baked ideological bullshyt get propped up to justify our embrace of various forms of extremism tied to white feminism. First off there is no such thing as fatphobia. Obesity is killing people, ESPECIALLY black people. Especially black women. And instead of addressing the problems with our diet, exercise, etc we've decided to create a new form of victimhood to hide beneath.

There's literally a post in this thread by @RARI_Godwind claiming that Victorian era women's fashion is modeled after thick black women. This is exactly what I'm talking about. Half assed research these people do to come to wildly wrong conclusions. In reality she is wearing a fukking corset. It's a waist trainer, to make her thinner. Not to imitate big black asses.

“Fatphobia”

These fat fukks have health phobia foh. If anything its America that has american black people fat and loaded with heart disease and diabetes. I’ve seen black people all around the world and no matter if rich or poor we’re mostly slim. Even when you status it don’t be that bad. But America is different. As someone who grew up in the South you were looked at as unhealthy if you weren’t overweight.

 

[old boy]

the two most important parts of this video are first the race of woman they show at @2:49-2:56 and @3:14 "and we would today call this a form of "color blind racism" fukk they talmbout color blind racism?!?

this is coming from the white liberal think tanks yall. where the tricknology move now is to say that white women (and white LGBT) are victims of racist white supremacy too! yall don't remember that TLR thread here about 6 months back where a tiktok was posted of a fat white bytch spitting this same nonsense about fatphobia = anti black racism? this is the enemy's move now. sabrina strings is a collaborator with the enemy just like kimberle crenshaw

by the way.... the white devil created & controlled "critical race theory" is THIS SAME EXACT PLAY with this nonsense about "color blind racism." meaning white folks catch that fade from racism too so let's show the adjacency to the negroes later while first pretending we are defending & empowering black people's rights & history

You can make the argument that the standard, BMI, is a poor way to measure unhealthy weight and that it's more apt to the white body type and this argument is made by everyone by now. It has been criticized since the 90s as far as I remember for this reason. But go and look at footage and of black folks before 2000s and black people were routinely in shape. Definitely not "fat". Now will white folks who were lusting after literal anorexic back then think otherwise? No doubt. I can also call a dog a cat but it doesn't make it so, and their standards were equally ridiculous. But even then, the use of the word fat phobia implies that you're accepting the idea that black women's natural shape was "fat" which isn't the case. Not curvy, thick, shapely. Fat.

Folks cite women with Steatopygia like Sara Baartman to make this argument while ignoring that even for a black woman she had an abnormal amount of fat in her thighs and ass. That was not the normal shape for black women. Black women come in all shapes like any other race. So being fat phobic does not mean it cascades down to being black phobic because most black women, when in an environment where a reasonable diet and activity is observed, are not fat.

Now women and men today, of all races, is a different story because our lifestyle and diet habits are straight trash. Plenty of fat people to go around now. If you're fatphobic, you can throw a rock out a window in a multiracial community and hit a big ass bytch of any ethnicity. Fatness is everywhere now.

People refuse to take accountability for own their health. The effects of Type 2 Diabetes should be enough for anyone to be conscious of their eating habits.
