A Stripper's Guide pod is taking a little breaky-break for now, but I am very active on Substack, and I'm making a documentary.
This is the season finale, hosted by Leilah and her friend Erica Sosa, who writes about fat femmes, desirability politics, and erotic autonomy on her Substack.
Today we are geeking out because we get to speak with someone who inspires us both a lot.
Aubrey Gordon is an author, columnist, and the cohost of Maintenance Phase, a podcast that debunks the diet industry. She was featured in a 2023 documentary, Your Fat Friend, whose name is based on the title of Aubrey's column, Yr Fat Friend.
In this episode, we talk about some parallels between anti-fat stigma and anti-sex worker stigma (and their differences), and how it feels when someone who used to be one of us won't claim us.

- Books: "You Just Need to Lose Weight" and "What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat"
