Also, having seen fatphobia in Malaysia (though only seeing the Health At Every Size movement in Australia), it’s definitely not unique to the US. I find though that in the US you have more people actively calling out privilege, championing minorities, and so on – there’s more political awareness and effort. There’s possibly the same issues worldwide – whether they are inbuilt into the culture or a result of Westernisation I’m not sure – but perhaps not as much political leverage.
