The Problem with "Plus Sized"
On today's episode, Alice and her guest discuss the beauty industrial complex and how it weaponizes size and weight to convince people (primarily women) that they must change themselves to be beautiful and fit into the mold that society has created for them. *Disclaimer* All uses of the term "fat" are positive and when we discuss how a size 12 is not "fat" we aren't saying that to say a size 12 is skinny (which is supposedly better than fat if you ask society), but simply that a size 12 is average and is thus neither fat nor skinny, and the usage of the term "fat" for anyone over a size 8 neglects to acknowledge the existence of those who actually fall outside the average sizes.   -You'll get what I'm saying when you listen!
