Why the hell do so many lefty people (not just Fat Acceptance nutters) refer to their body like itโs not really a part of them? What in the world is going on there?
Theyโre always saying things like โthis bodyโ and โtake my body to bed.โ WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? Itโs you. Trust me, itโs all you. Iโm guessing this strange way of referring to oneโs self is a result of the spread of therapy language and culture, but I am not quite certain.
However, I think Nietzsche said it best about this nonsense: โBody am I entirely, and nothing else; and soul is only a word for something about the body.โ
