Does This BMI Make Me Look Fat?: Defining the bounds of "normal" weight in the U.S. and France
Abstract
My work fills these holes in the literature by examining how medical science and news media define the upper and lower limits of “normal” body weight and how they discuss underweight/ overweight issues, eating disorders, and obesity. The talk I will be giving at the Center for the Study of Women next month examines cross-issue and cross-national differences in how the U.S. and French news media frame eating disorders and overweight/obesity as medical issues and public health priorities.
