"Your Fat Friend" was well-made and worth watching. I appreciated how the filmmaker allowed for subtlety.
Aubrey's experience in this film shows just how much our society hates fat. It shows how this hatred carries down to the people closest to us, and is internalized by so many of us. Before we know it, we're judging and hurting our loved ones and ourselves, and we don't even notice we're doing it. And we don't know why we're doing it. This may be relatable to some, and eye-opening to others.
Don't let yourself be on the "wrong" side of history when it comes to this issue. Watch it for yourself, your children, and for your fat friends.
