“A woman’s individual preoccupation with weight often serves as a mask for other, more intricate sources of discomfort, the state of one’s waistline being easier to contemplate than the state of one’s soul … how much self-acceptance she does or does not possess, how much pleasure she feels permitted to have, how much anxiety or guilt or shame her hungers arouse - these are the kinds of issues a woman may bring to the scale.”

Feel free to leave your opinion. I'm going to be pretty open to whatever people have to say, as long as we can all be civil.
