ARANDA DELGADO, María Magdalena. Becoming fat. Identification processes and desiring affectations. La ventana [online]. 2021, vol.6, n.53, pp.217-248. Epub 23-Feb-2021. ISSN 1405-9436.
In recent years, in social sciences there has been numerous feminist research whose creativity has shown that, given the need to get close to the many feminine realities, it is imperative to draw from a variety of methodological approaches. Autoethnography is one of those methods, which has gained adepts among the scientific community as its narrative strength favors a connection between theoretical and analytical aspects, with a more immediate comprehension of the political exercise of that which is researched. The central idea in this writing is the contemplation of the experimental sketch of a process of fat identifications, this allows us to catch a glimpse at how oppressive corporal sociocultural structures are being configured, which observed closely, make it possible not only to explicitly acknowledge them, but also to find resignification paths. Becoming fat is a dialectic process that lingers between poetic, theoretical, and political knowledge rising from our human desire affectations, the socialization of gender, and a fascination for showing the wide range of knowledge contained in the bodies of fat women.
