I feel like every day I'm reading more drivel about how brave they are for calling themselves fat. But when we say it, well, that's problematic!  I love the bit about headless pictures in articles about obesity. You just can't win with them. Imagine the uproar if one of them saw their own face in one of these "Fat fuckery sweeps the nation" stories. But if we respect their privacy by leaving their faces out of it, that's erasure!
