   Famine Within, The (Catherine Gilday, 1993)

   The harm caused to Amerikan wimmin by the beauty myth. The majority
   of wimmin fear being fat more than they fear dying, for example. Its
   shortcomings mirror are the same as the white feminist movement's: no
   analysis of class and nation differences among wimmin. It universalizes
   the experience of privileged white Amerikan wimmin to all women. Also
   doesn't recognize that a situation of economic abundance is a
   precondition for problems such as anorexia, and ignores the larger
   context of imperialist plunder of the Third World which generates
   the relative abundance that creates problems such as anorexia for
   Amerikan wimmin.
