Body shaming (and positivity) in Ancient Egypt
EPISODE 35 | And we're back with our first episode of Season 3!! Kara and Jordan tackle the topic of body shaming (and positivity) in ancient Egypt. What were the "ideal" body types? How were people viewed who were outside those norms? What were their thoughts on aging, disability, thinness, thickness, etc? How do these differ from a modern Western ideal and what can we learn from the ancient Egyptians?
