"Gender Studies" Professor Who Specializes In "Fat Studies" Blasts Efforts to Reduce Obesity as Fatphobia, Straight-Up

A gender studies professor, you say?

I didn't see that one coming.

I think we should rename Gender Studies to be more honest about what it is -- Unf*ckability: Theory and Practice.

A Canadian professor who specializes in "fat studies" claimed that aiming for an obesity-free future was "fatphobic" and blasted the "biopolitics" agenda as an attack against fat people.

Fady Shanouda is an associate professor at the Feminist Institute of Social Transformation at Carleton University in Canada. Shanouda "draws on feminist new materialism" to examine the intersections between "fat studies, "colonialism, racism..., and queer- and transphobia."

The Critical Disability Studies scholar wrote that it was "fatphobic" to have a public health conversation and to tamp down on obesity, according to a Monday article in The Conversation.

Just so you have a sense of The Backstory to Fady:

fat-studies-professor-1.jpg

As they say on Always Sunny in Philadelphia: "What is happening...?" (Content warning.)

You know, there's an old bit of folk wisdom that people go into psychology to figure out their own insanity, to find out what's wrong with them.

It would stand to reason that that's why people are attracted to "gender studies."



Being overweight or obese increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, joint problems, liver disease, gallstones, some types of cancer, and sleep and breathing problems, according to the NIH.

In particular, Shanouda believes the marketing of the drug Ozempic -- as a method to combat obesity -- was the latest example of fatphobia in the culture.

"The latest wonder drug... [was] invented to help diabetics regulate blood glucose levels, but has the notable side-effect of severe weight loss. It has been heralded by many to culminate in the elimination of fat bodies. The fatphobia that undergirds such a proclamation isn't new," Shanouda said.

I feel like Ozempic should hire this guy (???) to be their spokesman (???). Even people out there who are against Ozempic just because they support natural fixes rather than the medicalization and pharmacologization of all problems are probably becoming huge Ozempic supporters just listening to this person rant.


"What makes this moment different from the others, however, is the dangerous rhetoric in which it is lodged. This rhetoric elevates the banal and commonplace fat-shaming that fat people must endure and resist to an unprecedented level," the professor added.

...

The professor lamented how the effectiveness of obesity treatments could eliminate "fat activism" and "the fat liberation movement."

He added that treatments for "the so-called obesity epidemic" were "steeped in fat-hatred."

Can drinking coffee help you lose weight?

Almost certainly not, except to the most marginal, even imperceptible, degree. But this is GAINZZZ post now so I guess I have to link this crap.

The levels of caffeine in your blood could affect the amount of body fat you carry, a factor that in turn could determine your risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.

Those are the findings of a recent study that used genetic markers to establish a more definitive link between caffeine levels, BMI, and type 2 diabetes risk.

The research team, from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, the University of Bristol in the UK, and Imperial College London in the UK, said calorie-free caffeinated drinks could be explored as a potential means of helping reduce body fat levels.

Let me say right now I have tried that -- I drink sugarless caffeinated sodas and coffee -- and high caffeine does not translate to high energy or low bodyfat. Coffee can give you a boost for a sesh at the gym, but generally having caffeine in your body doesn't make you more energetic. It actually just wears you out, and you build up a tolerance to it anyway.


"Genetically predicted higher plasma caffeine concentrations were associated with lower BMI and whole body fat mass," the researchers wrote in their paper, published in March.

"Furthermore, genetically predicted higher plasma caffeine concentrations were associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. Approximately half of the effect of caffeine on type 2 diabetes liability was estimated to be mediated through BMI reduction."

The study involved data from just under 10,000 people collected from existing genetic databases, focusing on variations in or near specific genes known to be associated with the speed at which caffeine is broken down.

In general, those with variations affecting the genes -- namely CYP1A2 and a gene that regulates it, called AHR -- tend to break caffeine down more slowly, allowing it to remain in the blood longer. Yet they also tend to drink less caffeine in general.

Can having big boobs reduce your desire to exercise? Again probably not really but any chance to talk about boobs, I guess.

Women with larger breasts tend to exercise less frequently and avoid high-intensity exercise and a new study has found much improved participation in recreational group exercises after breast reduction surgery.

The new study published in JPRAS Open further strengthens calls for more accessible, publicly funded breast reduction and other interventions in some cases.

Based on research at Flinders University, the questionnaire was conducted with support from the free community Parkrun UK research board, an organization aiming to promote 5km running and walking events around the world--for all ages and fitness levels.

Oh, a questionnaire! The gold standard of research.

Kidding. It's the lowest, garbage-tier level of non-research that there is.


The survey was completed by almost 2,000 women involved in the Parkrun program in Australia, England and South Africa found women with bigger breasts believe that reducing their breast size would improve their exercise performance and participation

Oh, they believe that their breasts are holding them back.

Whoever I saw linking this pointed out that the study did not normalize for BMI. And that's important, because heavier women have bigger breasts. So this study might really be telling us what was already pretty obvious: Being overweight causes you to not want to exercise.


As well, all 56 women who had undergone breast reduction surgery in the group of 1987 surveyed women reported leading more healthy and active lifestyles.

56 people -- a big 5-6 comin' at ya, like LT hunting down Joe Theismann like a brittle-legged wildebeest on the Serengeti -- in the survey report that, having undertaken a major surgical intervention, they're satisfied with their decision.

We see that all the time. Once someone buys a car, he will most likely deem his choice of which car to purchase to have been the optimal one. Not necessarily because it was the optimal choice, but because when you make a big decision you tend to dislike thinking you chose wrong.


"Women who had undergone breast reduction reported increased overall frequency, enjoyment and willingness to exercise in a group," says lead author Dr. Claire Baxter, a clinical registrar in reconstructive surgery at the Flinders Medical Centre.

"Our study found that breast size affects exercise habits and that breast reduction surgery changes their willingness to exercise."

Okay I've wasted enough of your time with nonsense. On to the Animal Videos.

Gym buddies.

They wanted to use the High Occupancy Vehicle Lane.

Always have a spotter.

Golf GAINZZZ. Putt pupper!

I may have just linked this one. I forget. But it's worth watching twice, anyway.

He just started the Grayskull 3x5 regime and he's seeing some good results.

So, any GAINZZZ out there?

I started -- or pre-started -- a big PROJEXXX, a hobby/craft sort of thing, which I don't want to tell you about because you'll make fun of me.

Maybe someday. I have to get more comfortable with this new direction I'm going in.

10 Yeah, don't get hung up on the *pharmacological* nature of Ozempic or Wegovy. It's made from a chemical found in the blood of gilla monsters. They noticed in nature that they don't eat very much, and when they checked it out, viola, there is a compound in their blood that lowers their need to eat. And now its a drug you can take to lose weight.

Just because its from "biG pHaRmA" doesn't make it bad. Sometimes they come across things that actually work and benefit people

20 also, can we just say:

1) don't bully people based on their appearances*

and

2) it is unquestionably more healthy if you are not fat. As someone who has been both fat and not fat, you feel way better when you're not fat, your energy levels are higher, you enjoy life more, and you have fewer health problems.

There it is again. They can't help themselves. This is *the* contemporary woke language. "Fat bodies" or "female bodies" or "black bodies" or "non-binary bodies of color."

That's all it is. It's superficial, at all times and in all ways. *Who* you are - your work ethic, your honor, your faith, your morality, your commitment to family, etc. - is nothing. It doesn't exist. You don't exist beyond *what* you are. Your meat sack is the only consideration. What color is your meat sack? What reproductive organs does your meat sack have? How big is your meat sack?

This is all so creepy. It eliminates people. A person does not exist. Ambulatory slabs of meat exist. This language - and the philosophy that drives it - is dehumanizing and objectifying in every possible extreme.

I hate these people.

Yup. I quit caffeine earlier this year because it was affecting my sleep. I will probably start drinking coffee more again. I like it.

But the real factor is probably that caffeine (or at least coffee and tea - not sure if it is the caffeine or the other stuff) is a very mild appetite suppressant.

If I remember correctly, the ACA had provisions that limited that kind of pricing. It pulled everyone into a handful of buckets (I think it may be as low as three) that insurance companies can price on.

It's one reason why health insurance costs have risen in the decade since the passage of the law, instead of falling.

I’m finding certain “keto” snacks or treats that contain corn soluble fiber like Quest cookies are complete bullshit and kick me out of ketosis. I generally avoid snacks with those ingredients and those that say “resistant starches” or resistant dextrins, which I have learned are not that resistant to my body’s digestion

- The size of those meals matters. I am a skeptic that two or one meal a day is good, since it may cause lots of snacking, or massive meals.

- brush you teeth after each meal and don't snack between. Brushing you teeth is a little added incentive since it makes you think even a tiny snack will nix the clean teeth feeling.

Eh. I've tried levers and I've tried prongs. Levers cinch better. Ever cinch a belt really tight to get the prong in, only to feel the belt loosen as the prong seats? Levers don't do that.

There were a couple of clergymen I knew-not effeminate, and pretty conservative who used to do needlepoint at long, boring meetings. That was before the heyday of cell phones. It kept them doing something productive and then they had something beautiful when they were finished.

334 I have too many damn hobbies....so I started another one. Whittling, which led to carving with a Dremel. Maybe someday I'll do chainsaw carving. Because there's not enough chainsaw carved bears here in the mountains.

348 "PCOS doesn't lead to that extreme level of obesity, regardless of what Whitney Way Whore wants us to think"

Something, yes it does, something presentation varies something.

PCOS probably not as common as people want to claim, but yes, it can help you get that fat, keep you from slimming down, and give you frequent miscarriages.

355 But you ? You must defend the pack. Because you are in the Sisterhood. You scold every thread, when the Sisterhood is in danger.

LOL. I wasn't aware that saying you're argumentative or that you repetitively change your handle was defending the sisterhood. I am sorry about your marital troubles, however . That is never easy. In my interactions with you over the years, you are obviously very bright and have some fine points, but I think you may have some clinical depression that has never been addressed. In men that tends to come out in some cases as extreme irritability. Please look into that.

Adios.

There was a long stretch of time when I lived in a cabin with a fucked up hillbilly whore. We didn't have so much as a dishwasher until I could find a low-flow portable thing. The well couldn't do much more.

I would have to chop wood for heat, and wash my clothes with Woolite in the bath. I wasn't so fucking tubby when I had nothing.
