Fat-Acceptance Points of Interest
While researching other various fat-acceptance sites I have come across quite a few interesting articles. I have decided to post these here rather than in my links section. They are both professional articles and stories on personal web pages.
If you know of any other articles fo interest that I might want to encompass, please e-mail me the address. Thanks again.
June 1999
May 1999
"Fat Acceptance: A Study of Identity, in a Virtual Community" Discusses the emergence of the fat-acceptance community as a primarily web-based project.
"Large & Loving It" Discusses being plus in size, plus in exercise & health.
March 1999
"Life in the Fat Underground"
Radiance Online Magazine article - A feminist fat-acceptance group since the 1970s discussed.
February 1999
"Not Model-Thin, but a Role-Model"
Okay, even though I already I have a link to Camryn Manheim's website, I thought to draw specific attention to this article, particularly because of the title. We all know about my problems with the lack of role models - and its nice to see that the New York Times agrees with me that Camryn is definitely one.
January 1999
"Where do we go from here?"
Fantastic article by Size Wise Travel Consultant, Pamela Vona. Gives loads of detailed information about airlines' seating formations and sizes.
"Ordinary: Skin and Bones"
Great story about the tendencies in our society to compare us to the non-norm, i.e., Supermodels. Its filled with attitude, wit, and sacrcasm (just how I like it). Please take a look around while you there - Kerry maintains a very stylish personal homepage (one of the best I've seen)- definitely worth a peek, and them some :)
"For a Lonely Woman"
Okay, I am veering off from my "articles" title a bit here, but I just LOVED this poem. I think any single woman can relate to it. Mindy is utterly cool and talented, and all her writings reflect that. Just think - I'm saving you browsing all day on the internet and giving you the cream of the crop here :)
"Self-Acceptance and Self-Esteem"
An article from the Grand Style Women's Lounge by Linda Goodrich, RN, PHN, Health and Lifestyle Counselor.
December 1998
"Weight triggered firings, lawsuit says"
Farmland Dairies is being sued for firing a woman because of her weight and another for not firing her. Here's the story.
