Over-Whitening Underfueling (Episode 106)
Assumptions surrounding eating disorders, disordered eating, and underfueling are extreme. In the context of sport, we often believe that underfueling is related to the desire to lose weight. However, this week, Shaunna and Lisa crack open these assumptions and delve into the societal pressures that encircle disordered eating and how these differ on a spectrum of race, socio-economic status, and more.
Shaunna and Lisa discuss the ways in which the white male gaze influences the “desired” body type, and how this differs between communities. Further, the duo makes clear how the prototype of a woman with an eating disorder is quite stereotypically a white woman.
