What Makes Diet Culture a Queer Issue, Anyway?
Manage episode 514899537 series 3696858
Welcome to the very first episode of Queers Against Diet Culture! In this kickoff conversation, Riah digs into why diet culture isn’t just about food or health — it’s a systemic issue that deeply impacts queer communities.
We’ll talk about:
- How diet culture disguises itself as “wellness”
- How “ideal” bodies are shaped by heteronormativity
- The ways it connects to capitalism and white supremacy
- The unique pressures LGBTQIA+ folks face around body image and health
- How body autonomy is central to queer liberation
By the end of this episode, you’ll see how rejecting diet culture is more than just personal healing — it’s queer liberation.
