Italy: Students from 3 High Schools Protest Against Head Teacher’s “Fatphobia”

The Italian term for “fatphobia” is “grassofobia.”

Bet you feel smarter knowing that.

ANSA:

Some 300 Italian high-school students from three Vicenza licei struck on Friday protesting what they called “sexist, fat-phobic and paternalistic” remarks by the Fogazzaro Liceo’s head teacher against some girls there.

The Fogazzaro students were joined by those from the liceo Pigafetta and the liceo Quadri.

The students held up placards including one saying “we are striking for your good taste”.

The head teacher reportedly made disparaging remarks about overweight girls sporting skimpy clothing.

Can’t believe this shit is catching on in Italy of all places…
