"People in this country haven't stopped hating fat people, but they've become more kind to me, since in our culture, even though we hate our fat people, we love our celebrities even more"

- Camryn Manheim

About this Quote

This quote by Camryn Manheim speaks with the concept that, while fatphobia is still prevalent in our culture, individuals are most likely to be kind to celebs than to those who are not in the public eye. This suggests that, while fat individuals are still subject to discrimination, there is a certain level of regard and adoration that is afforded to those who are in the general public eye. This might be due to the reality that celebs are viewed as having actually attained a certain level of success, and thus are viewed as more worthwhile of respect. It also speaks to the concept that, while fatphobia is still an issue, people are more likely to be kind to those who are viewed as successful or essential.
