Disordered eating: how can feminism help?
Abstract
We are in the midst of an “epidemic of anorexia.”
Feminist scholarship on eating disorders has
moved us away from the lone sufferers of medical
and psychiatric readings and helped us to understand
the role of our cultural obsessions with
weight, fitness, beauty, and restraint in this
dis-ease. Can feminism continue to help? And can
it begin to help differently?
