Today, 'fat' Has Become Not A Description

I Think It Is One Of The Capacities Of Human Beings, To Create Style.

Beauty Has Been Democratised. No Longer The Preserve Of Movie Stars And Models But Available To All. But While The Invitation To Beauty Is Welcomed, It Has Become Not So Much An Option As An Imperative.

Fat People Are So Rarely Included In Visual Culture That Fat Is Perceived As A Blot On The Landscape Of Sleek And Slim.

Being Able To Provoke A Different Point Of View To The Standard Current Ideological Or Political Perspective As Played Out In Conventional Newspaper Or Radio Reportage Is What A Public Intellectual Does. But It's Not Merely About Being Oppositional, Because That's Too Negative.

The Insistence That The Commercialisation Of The Body Is A Fit Subject For Political Discussion And Intervention Is Well Overdue.
