Intermission: Sponsor me!

I just wanted to take a quick break to encourage all my visitors to sponsor me as I blog for NOLOSE. They’re a great organization who put on an awesome conference annually, organize fat frock swaps do lots of other important work in fat liberation. To learn more about them, visit their website. To sponsor me, click here!

You can read NOLOSE’s manifesta for their rockin’ agenda. Some of my favorite points?

• We believe that beauty, morality, and health must be divorced from size, shape, age, gender, sex, race, ability, religion and sexual orientation.
• We argue that there are many paths to fatness, that the medical community has yet to fully and conclusively tease out the potential links between health concerns and weight, and that the diet industry capitalizes on this to manufacture massive fat-phobia.
• We stand proudly with disability activists in pursuit of self-determination, human rights, love and support, in sickness and in health, in fatness and in thinness, for everyone.
