April not only reveals the absence of diverse bodies in the media but she is part of the solution. She was the first plus size model to appear in a bikini as part of a major Australian advertising campaign. Of that experience, April has said "I was the first fat chick on a billboard, and I don't want to be the last.”   In this conversation, Jamila Rizvi and April Hélène-Horton go deep on the body inclusivity movement in Australia, where we need to go from here and how to navigate tricky topics around body descriptors with young children.    THE WEEKEND LIST: DO: Monikers (Card Game) EAT: Medjool Dates WATCH: Queer Eye Germany (Netflix)   WATCH: Anatomy of a Scandal (Netflix)    Follow The Briefing DON'T FORGET TO SIGN UP FOR THE BRIEFING NEWSLETTER.

Butterfly: Let's Talk

Fat phobia is the fear and dislike of fat or larger bodies. It's irrational, unjust, and often expressed in damaging ways. In fact, weight stigma is associated with several negative outcomes for people in larger bodies, including decreased opportunity in employment, income, education, housing, and medical care. The mental health impacts are also well documented: increased stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem – all of which are also risk factors for eating disorders. In our new episode we unpack fat phobia, hear firsthand from award-winning writers Megan and Karyn, and the wildly popular “Bodzilla”, April, about how they have experienced it. We also hear from Dr. Xochitl dela Piedad Garcia of ACU about what the research has to say about weight discrimination, and from Georgie, an ally, about how she is addressing thin privilege to support a much-needed change in perspective.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
