Weighty Matters

In a speech on the topic of “radical fat liberation” jointly sponsored by the Women and Gender Studies Department and the Centre for Equity and Inclusion at St. Olaf College in Minnesota, the prodigiously overweight Sonalee Rashatwar, a self-proclaimed Fat Sex Therapist, compared fitness trainers to Nazis, defined child dieting as sexual assault, attributed the Christchurch shooting to ‘thin” white supremacism, and condemned science as “fataphobic” for “promoting the idea that certain bodies are fit, able and desirable.” She wonders, rhetorically, “is it my fatness that causes my high blood pressure, or is it my experience of weight stigma?” She goes on to blame the Reagan administration for having refused to provide “social supports that also help me to subsidise my food costs.”

David Solway on the feminist enthusiasm for fatness. One of these.

  1. The second story in a row on the crazies in Minnesota.

    Believe it or not, most of us Minnesotans are sane and normal people.

    Northfield’s previous claim to fame was shooting up the Jesse James gang when they tried to hold up a bank in Northfield. St. Olaf is a very interesting college.

    1. Not according to virtually EVERY news story I’ve read over the past 10 years. Small children tossed over the third floor railing of an indoor shopping mall …

      The State is full of uncivilized cretins. Oh … and then there’s the whole leftist Democrap election tradition. Starting with Hubert Humphrey … Eugene McCarthy … Walter Mondale.
      Your State is a cesspool of extremist leftist politics.

      Sorry. You appear a nice fellow. But the MAJORITY of your State are IDIOTS. Yeah, yeah … that’s RICH coming from a Californian … the difference is … I admit my State is filled with fruits and nuts … including my longtime hardcore leftist next door neighbors who moved from … Minnesota. You see … THATS how my State got fkcued-up. Interlopers who migrated West with their goofy political beliefs

  2. If the jet I’m a passenger on ever crashes into a mountain side in the Andes, and we’re stuck there for a couple of weeks, I know who I want to be sitting beside.

  3. Roll out the barrel. Next White guys will be slammed for not dating the heavies. It is their constitutional right. It’s not something guys will admit fat girlfriends and riding mopeds.

  4. Just gotta tell this moose hunting story. Friend of mine and his buddy, who was an undertaker went moose hunting.
    It was the undertakers 1st moose hunt and he was gullible. After they get camp set up they head to town for some excitement.
    My friend told the undertaker, that to have good luck hunting he would have to find himself a fat native woman. He told him that it was a well known fact that 1st time moose hunters had to do this if they wanted success with their 1st moose. Well at the bar they found a 300Lb plus heavy. The undertaker who was fairly under the weather, was in love.
    My friend loads them up in his 4×4 and they head back to camp. Apparently when they got into the bed in the back of the small trailer, my friend said she was so heavy the tongue of the trailer went up in the air, they had forgotten to put the stabilizers down.
    My friend said he could not take the performance anymore and got out of the trailer just before dawn with his rifle and started getting ready to do a little scouting.
    When all of a sudden a large bull moose walked into the clearing about 75 yds from the trailer. He dropped the moose, his friend crawled out of the trailer in disbelief and said you were right. I can’t believe it, you were right. The benefit to all this was they had an experienced hand to help butcher up the moose, once they winched her out of bed. It only works with moose hunters tho. So yah give the heavy ones some attention during moose hunting. ha ha ha

  5. OK, SDA readers, let’s no have any corny, double-entendres against overweight people, such as “Ms. Rashatwar brings a hefty argument to the table”, or “she gives a wide ranging discussion at the conference”. Eye rolling comments like that. And let’s not make insulting comments towards the speaker, such as “fatty”, “beefy”, “rotund”, “hefty”, “roly-poly” and other such negative terms. And slang terminology, like “well upolstered” are a definate no no.

    The proper term to use is “plus sized individual”. Let’s avoid ad hominum discussions here.

    1. So would “her thinking was the only part of her that was half-assed” qualify? How about “She showed enough cheek to engulf small children”?

    2. Can I say she has atherosclerosis of the mind? Fatty deposits are clogging her neural pathways?

  6. Feminism = Fat ugly jealous women.

    There’s no mystery as to where it all began and why it thrives today.

  7. Don’t wish this on her, but the ultimate irony would be for her to croak of a heart attack while railing away during one of her hateful rants.

    Just sayin

  8. So what? Most women, are clearly too stupid to see the connection between sexual “liberation”, feminism, infanticide, and depression. So they eat, stay depressed, and stay feminist.

    Let them dig their own graves with their jaws, and never stick your dick in crazy.

    1. Freddy Mercury was a FREAK! No matter how Hollywood has spun his life. Fabulous voice. Lucky to meet Brian May. Other than that? A bloody mixed-up Paki-FREAK!

  9. Beauty is only skin deep, gentlemen. Female self-absorption, greed and heartlessness go clear to the bone.

    The problem the feminist sows have is that men refuse to screw them, much less give Miss Piggy access to their bank accounts.

    Back on planet earth, men are no more than ten years away from perfecting the artificial womb, making women unnecessary for reproduction, and opening the door towards hauling the sows off to the abbatoir along with all the other gangs of ungrateful parasites.

    Men invented and built everything. Women live on men’s charity. Women forget that at their mortal peril.

    1. “The problem the feminist sows have is that men refuse to screw them, much less give Miss Piggy access to their bank accounts.”

      Of course, and the jealous hatred of competing women that have access to whatever men will give them. Not a mystery.

      So they tear down the competition any way they can.

    1. The entire REAL, PHYSICAL, world is a social construct …
      The delusion is strong with this one.

  10. There are fat men too, but at least they stay hidden until they need the tow truck and a chainsaw to get them out the front door. They don’t harangue anyone.

  11. The post modern nihilism inherent in the leftist fealty for fat women is nothing more than the modern iteration of Hans Christian Anderson’s “The emperor’s New Clothes”. All but the most deluded souls know that obese woman (not just well rounded but well dressed) are generally seen as unattractive and particularly when accompanied by low self esteem, poor hygiene, dull clothing, and that all pervasive dour leftist demeanor.

    I remember almost fifty years ago while at the U of A, I was reading Rand’s (autobiographical?) ‘We The Living’ where she was describing the physical attributes of a fat female communist apparatchik on a post Russian revolution university campus. That description uncannily equated to some of the fat females at the U of A also tied in with the communists on campus, even up to the dull clothing, humorless demeanor and armpit sweat stains.

  12. is there like, one of those organizational charts showing the linkage between all the goddamn nuttiness going on today? where the FCUK is the epicentre? who or what or where or when is it?

    a good place to start is investigating the spread of socialism.
