The article “Why fat is a queer and feminist issue” by Anna Mollow, is a scathing attack on the prevalent anti-fat atmosphere in our country. The article is nicely written and presents the views of the author backed by other articles and books written on the same topic. The article purports to prove by presenting a wide array of examples and perceptions how the fat phobia is similar to homophobia and is specifically a feminist issue too.
