The workshop opened my eyes to a social stigma that affects so many and is simply hushed up in Switzerland. And the workshop also opened my eyes to the inside – I’m not as free of it as I would like to be.
It was also impressive to see how deeply fatphobia is anchored in all of us! It was very valuable that so many different women were there.
