The Religion of Thinness: Satisfying the Spiritual Hungers Behind Women's Obsession with Food and WeightWith so many women approaching their diets, body image, and pursuit of a slender figure with slavish devotion, The Religion of Thinness is a timely addition to the discussion of our cultural obsession with weight loss. At the heart of this obsession is the belief that in order to be happy, one must be slim, and the attendant myths, rituals, images, and moral codes can leave some women with severe emotional damage. Idealized images in the media inspire
With so many women approaching their diets, body image, and pursuit of a slender figure with slavish devotion, The Religion of Thinness is a timely addition to the discussion of our cultural obsession with weight loss. At the heart of this obsession is the belief that in order to be happy, one must be slim, and the attendant myths, rituals, images, and moral codes can leave some women with severe emotional damage. Idealized images in the media inspire devotees of this "religion" to experience guilt for behaviors that are biologically normal and necessary, and Lelwica offers two ways to combat this dangerous cultural message. Advising readers to look hard at the societal cues that cause them to obsess about their weight, and to remain mindful about their actions and needs, this book will not only help stop the cycle of guilt and shame associated with food, it will help readers to grow and accept their bodies as they are.Binding Type: Paperback

Parts don’t fit together! Unusable!!
Color: black, Color: black
So disappointed! The pieces do not fit like in the instructions or pictures. The top rack does not fit in the slots; it’s too wide. It’s unusable!!

hopefully your rack comes with hardware!
Color: black
Tried to order this twice and both times it arrived without any hardware or hooks. This is disappointing since the size and design is perfect for my space. Undecided yet if I should try a 3rd time!

Chipped rack and top rack does not stay up
Color: black, Color: black
Heavy duty and easy to put together, with the exception of the two screws for the top rack; the top rack does not stay in the up position on its own like I thought it would. I can’t open my cabinet door. I had to screw a hook in the wall to hold it up. It arrived with chips on the metal.

Good for small spaces
Color: black
Nice item for a small space. You can hang a lot of clothes in a very small space. Seems sturdy. My clothes dry well. Like that it folds up against the wall when I’m done.

Luxury Organization
Color: Pebble Black, Size: 9.5in x 7.9in
Keep your keys, wallet, and all other every day carry items in one, high quality location. Very nice material and build quality that accessorizes my dresser perfectly. The size is appropriate for everything that belongs in your pockets. Overall the best value for your $ I’ve seen, especially if you can catch a discount.
