dc.description.abstract | This is a story about dominant truths that position fat people as morally irresponsible, unhealthy, inactive, unprofessional and undesirable citizens. In this story I demonstrate how fat people navigate and negotiate within these truths. Their narratives indicate the disciplinary power that compels them how to be and behave. However, the different strategies that the participants in this story adopt (also) signifies resistance to these dominations that opens up new possibilities for fat people on how to be and live their lives. With this story I intend to contribute to a better and more emphatic understanding of the complexity of fat embodiment. | |
