Hi Wiggles

I am not a moderator on FatSo, I do help moderate Sizewise. Despite what Kath has said I never once mention a word about what Fat Women do or do not experience, I know because I was careful not to. I think that those debates are useless.

I did comment on some of Kath's comments directed at Fat Men and disagreed with them. Between my own experiences and that of other Fat Men that I have listen to, I think that have better knowledge of Fat Males than Kath, yet she goes berserk because I have a opinion.

The only problem that I have with Feminism is the mindset that was created by feminist writers like Orbach and Chernin, who were proactive in rewriting Fat Acceptance to reject Fat Male Issues. Earlier Feminist Organizations like the Fat Underground were much more gender inclusive.

I think that Fat Acceptance may have gained a little fetish attitude from its BBW/Fat Admirer period toward Fat and Femininity because Society never extended Fat and Feminity to cover Fat Women.

Still I understand that Society is the source of the bias against Fat People.
