Dumplin' by Julie Murphy with Jen Arbo
Manage episode 301355829 series 2625030
Jen Arbo and I talked about the book (and movie) Dumplin' by Julie Murphy. You may remember Jen from my discussions with some of the authors of Big: Stories About Life in Plus-Sized Bodies. Jen and I really hit it off (I mean, both our names are Jen/n so obviously we were meant to be friends!) and she agreed to do another episode. I really hope you enjoy our discussion. We covered so much, including:
- Jen's Healthy at Every Size journey
- The importance of community and support to Jen's journey
- Jen's secret role models
- How thin privilege shows up in Dumplin'
- The mother figure in Dumplin' - are we sympathetic or should we burn her at the stake for her fatphobia?
- What was Willowdean trying to say by signing up for the beauty pageant?
- Will there be any lasting effects to the four misfits signing up for the pageant?
- How fatphobia is like smoking or wearing a seatbelt
- Why do we have "it could be worse" girls?
- Be the venn diagram not the pie chart!
- Book vs Movie - what is better? (Duh! but still have to discuss)
Keep reading everyone!
