You may know this already

I know my readers have already heard about this elsewhere, but in case anyone new steps in today, Sandy Szwarc has the latest in her series of articles dismantling the fat myth up. A great job, as always, exposing the hideously bad science at play in the crusade against fat people. Really, go read it. But here is the short version of the "science" behind the anti-fat movement.

Fat people who die, die because they are fat. That makes science easy.

And that's not even an oversimplification. Read it, and read her other articles...
