Janelle and Fatphobia?


Now, Janelle has officially dumped Kody and moved on to a happier life. It's what she deserves

That establishment, I really think it's weird that her relationship with her ex is still regarded as one where he wasn't attracted to her, only wanted her for money (despite him dumping Meri who made lots of money), and claims over her sexuality. People will say that they were never physically affectionate, especially once a certain wife appeared. When they're shown evidence that Janelle and Kody were affectionate and that they grew even closer after that wife appeared, the argument shifts to Janelle being a liar. She particularly gets a lot of flack for going on a last date with Kody where he was giddy and hoping for a kiss while she maintained that nothing would happen.

I have to wonder if the reason for this is fatphobia either conscious of subconscious. Is there such a strong resistance to accepting evidence because it doesn't align with firmly ingrained biases?
