Description:Stinson (sociology, Xavier University) joined a commercial weight-loss group to get the inside scoop on how the women there think about their bodies and weight. But over time she began to talk with family and with strangers in supermarkets and restaurants, subscribe to weight-loss magazines, and watch relevant television shows in order to broaden her research. Stinson writes that she joined the weight-loss group being "deeply aware of the sexist culture that glorifies thinness and objectifies women and their bodies."
