"Am I Thin Enough Yet?"Sharlene Hesse-Biber
[ send me this essay ]
(3 pp) Am I Thin Enough? is the "question" half
of a 1994 book title by Sharlene Hesse-Biber.
The "rest of the story," Hesse-Biber claims, may
be found by looking at The Cult of Thinness and
the Commercialization of Identity. Although she
doesn't directly accuse anyone she feels that
there are societal forces at work, which are
detrimental to women's health. Everyday,
women are given the message that how they look is
more important than how they think.
