MoF Mini: Fat Microaggressions

Image Descriptions: This minisode cover is mostly colorful graphic venus of willendorf shapes and empty text bubbles with cut outs or a photo of Cat and Saraya. The Matter of Fat logo sits bottom left followed by the minisode title “fat microaggressions”.

show notes:

Matter of Fat is a body positive podcast with Midwest sensibilities. Full episodes highlight community voices with a focus on body size, body positivity, + fat liberation.

In this minisode, hosts Cat Polivoda and Saraya Boghani share some scary listener-submitted microaggression stories! We hear terrifying tales of body-shaming bad vibes, hate on a plane, audacious assumptions, and a haunting pontoon ride. Halloween jokes aside (please see the special release date), we hear more about what microaggressions are, what they can look like, and some ideas of how to deal with them. Thanks to Susun Xiong for explaining microaggressions and Carly, Kristine, Nikki, Elizabeth, and Maria for sharing your stories!
