Like foot binding to make feet smaller, or the use of corsets to minimize waist size, many of these body images result in painful disability and disfigurement. Today the \"superior\" body being pushed comes from ideas of health and attractiveness as seen through images of ultra-lean thinness. Author Robin Phipps Woodall calls this \"the culture of thin supremacy.\"In Thin Supremacy, Woodall connects the individual's drive to achieve superior body images to human survival instincts, compelling people to fit in as a way to be viewed as worthy of love and inclusion. Unfortunately, as images of worth based on thinness have become more and more unrealistic, sadly this is on the rise: people suffering from emotional issues stemming from shame about their body. Woodall confronts the culture of thin supremacy-and encourages the reader to question their beliefs about body image.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Connie Anderson, Robin Phipps Woodall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 173314563X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781733145633\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Five Point Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/31\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.48d","brand":"Connie Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43982967079167,"sku":"9781733145633","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b068098d-43e2-4479-a282-b2d808edb635.jpg?v=1683263942","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/thin-supremacy-connie-anderson-9781733145633","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
