Today I read a post in salon.com by a "fat acceptance" chick who maintains a fat blog with two other equally sassy supposedly fat young women. I took a look at this blog - shapely prose - and I admit I was impressed. I looked at the comments on the salon.com article and I was depressed. On Kate's blog is a list of fat blogs, and there are many of them. But apparently many folks out there don't read them or have a clue about weight, about the real story about weight. It won't hurt to have one more voice crying out in this dense wilderness.
So that's why now. I first thought of asking if Kate would like another writer on her blog, given that it already has many readers. Then I thought, no, I'll do my own on my own terms and see where it goes.
