Hi Ali, Thanks for taking the time to respond, I really appreciate your feedback. I actually didn’t take Taryn’s article personally, as in a personal attack on me, I took exception to the context it has been written in. I absolutely agree with the quit your whinging approach she’s taken but I think it has been done poorly in the case of this article, I think that it is insulting to people’s intelligence. It is a very heavy handed approach to a delicate subject. Who or what makes the distinction between people who have real depression & body image issues and not? I don’t know how much of that is Taryn’s writing and how much of the approach has been editorially directed. I haven’t particularly liked anything I have read from Taryn on Mamamia. I don’t read anything on Mamamia regularly because I find that there overriding approach is to create sensation, I see it as an online tabloid…kind of like NW as a print media comparison. It’s okay for the pictures but I don’t place a whole lot of value on what I read in it. I don’t want to attack what Taryn is trying to achieve because there are people who are connecting with it in a positive way. I don’t connect with the way Taryn is delivering her message. I feel that too much is left out and left open for {mis}interpretation. I am far more comfortable with the idea of an holistic image of self rather than something so focused on body image. I wrote about that here a few weeks ago. Tatum xx
