No, you're not offending me. At the moment, I'm listening more for what they teach young doctors that they then set on the population as GPs.
I'm no good at all the scientific data and statistics; I get what HAES is about and that correlation isn't causality, but everything above that, my slightly dys-mathematic tendency comes into play. But what interests me is what people learn is the truth, people who will then talk to fat people who, unlike me, are still fully in the space of diet talk and body hate, from a position of expertise and authority.
I don't want to offend you, either. You're not supposed to reflect on or criticize everything you're taught. You're supposed to pass exams and get a job and help people.
But if I knew what you are taught, then I would get where the other side is coming from: - the very doctors that do tend to offend. Like this one that drifted by on my tumblr some days ago.
