i did not really enjoy reading Hunger as Ideology by Susan Bordo. i did not like this article because i do not like reading about how women are supposed to eat. i had a lot of trouble when i was younger for this very reason. It was always shown to me how women were supposed to eat and how they were supposed to look. after hearing about it and dealing with it for so long, i really cold not get into the fact that i was supposed to be analysis’s the story. even forgetting about m y past, i still did not like this story for the reason i thought it was way to wordy. i did like how she used a lot of examples, but even then, i got confused with the writing. i liked how she started out with the example of twiggy because i also like the history of Twiggy. and i did like when she talked about how men are able to eat completely different then women. i do think this is true and completely unfair. i hate it how women always watch what they eat because, god forbid, they eat to much and get looked at funny. yet men can eat as much as they want. the more the better for men. so all in all, i thought this article was way to wordy with way to many inquisitions for me to deal with. she made her point that women have to eat differently than men. Bravo.
