    Science increasingly shows that we have far less control over our weight and body shape than society wants us to believe. Yet people labeled as “overweight” are often ridiculed, dismissed, and denied basic respect. While some claim fatphobia is hardwired into human nature, its roots are more recent—and more surprising—than you might expect. This week, Adam speaks with Cornell philosopher Kate Manne, author of Unshrinking: How to Face Fatphobia, about the origins and consequences of anti-fat bias—and what it will take to dismantle it.
