Instead of looking at united kingdom the very real conditions which have created such cultural anxieties, we instead stigmatize fat people. And that is just what the ‘powers that be’ wants, a nation of smug thin people who don’t have to analyze their own contributions to a world of such stark inequality, and a nation of fat people who are so preoccupied with their supposed personal deficit that they too don’t demand a better allocation of resources, a better sense of cooperation among nations, and a world safe from terrorism of all kinds. |

I don’t think it is any surprise to look back over the history of the US to see a narrative which projects an image of nationalistic health and athleticism onto individuals both real and fictional. I’m reminded of Benjamin Franklin’s autobiography, where he talks about swimming in the river in England as a young man, and how his stamina and eagerness for physical exertion was a sharp contrast to the supposed ‘indolent’ Europeans on the shore watching him. That is the American way, seen from Franklin (and I won’t even mention the irony of our collective image of him as an older fat, balding man making merry with Parisian women) to Theodore Roosevelt to Kennedy to Reagan, often times hiding very real physical infirmities. |
