It's pretty obvious in Good Omens. Bleh.

1) How so

2) You know he only wrote half of that book right

(Anonymous) 2015-05-01 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
nayrt

I'd be more inclined to blame Gaiman for that, honestly.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-01 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Pretty sure he wrote the part where he described a skinny woman as "a skeleton in a Dior dress, with tanned skin stretched almost to snapping point".

And the "faggot" and "poofter" slurs.

been a while since i've read it, but wasn't that something in the context of a description of Famine

(Anonymous) 2015-05-01 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes. It's still a gross description of models.

(Anonymous) 2015-05-01 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
like

i don't think it's a great description, but i think the context complicates it and makes it less a description of modeling generally and more some weird shit that happens with famine

again I don't really remember the context that well tho!

It's not a description of models, it's a description of what Famine does to people. His encouraging anorexia in the fashion industry makes sense to me. Unless you think there aren't problems with anorexia and body image in the fashion industry.

tbh it was too tryhard and west-centric to make a social commentary out of Famine being on Earth in the form of body policing making women anorexic.

Good Omens was written 25 years ago and with another author so if you're going to sum up someone as a sexist piece of shit full stop you probably need to cite more examples.
