Fat-shaming for Arab women, body positivity for the West ...Kuwait

Weekly British current affairs newspaper The Economist caused quite a stir earlier this month when it published an article titled, Why women are fatter than men in the Arab world, using a photograph of renowned Iraqi actress Enas Taleb from the International Babylon Festival last year. Taleb consequently decided to sue for what she says is personal defamation, calling the article “an insult to Arab women.” And she is right. The article cites that poverty, carbohydrate-rich diets, a higher unemployment rate of women, security reasons, social norms that frown on women exercising outside of the home, and finally Arab men’s “preference” for curvy women as the reasons behind
