NOT QUITE PERFECT

All women know what it means to be at odds with their own bodies, to feel ashamed, to deal with ridiculous beauty ideals and to wrangle with a carefree, unburdened approach to sexuality. But how much more complicated are these issues for overweight women? Here, Nicole Jäger is as frank, honest and disarmingly funny as always in discussing how overweight women can make peace with their own bodies; she also explains why sex is not a taboo for larger people.
