. “Imagine if Jack Dorsey were a woman doing this,” she said. (Dorsey has admitted himself that while he was fasting, he “felt like [he] was hallucinating,” GQ reported.) How would the extreme fasting be perceived? Spoiler alert: probably not well. At all. Ever. “The media would be alive with people calling ‘her’ guilty of perpetuating unhealthy ideas of body image, making anorexia ‘cool’ – you name it. It’s an incredibly gendered thing too.”
Hi Matt. Your entire article is excellent. Thank you for writing it.
I especially like the part in italics above. So very true. Not only would she be shamed, the “she’s crazy” label would again be trotted out. ( a favourite tactic regularly used to silence women)
Dorsey could be proud to admit his hallucinations. “She” better keep that to herself.
