Medical Student Practices Fat Shaming On Cadaver
INDIANAPOLISIn an effort to get hands-on experience stigmatizing patients bodies in a safe environment, Indiana University medical student Dylan Loera confirmed Wednesday that she was practicing fat shaming on a cadaver. At first it felt strange, but the opportunity to practice saying, Have you tried losing a few pounds? in the flesh is so different than just shaking your head at a picture in a textbook, said the first-year student, adding that she felt humbled by the generosity of the deceased individual who donated their body so she could roll her eyes a few times and poke their stomach folds with an audible oof. After so many hours sitting in lectures, it was nice to finally put on my scrubs and reduce a patients value as a human being by criticizing their weight. It almost feels like Im right there in an actual medical practice, dismissing a fat patients every concern while suppressing my laughter. Loera reportedly received a perfect score on her examination after informing a cadaver with cancer symptoms that there was nothing she could do for them if they werent willing to help themselves.The post Medical Student Practices Fat Shaming On Cadaver appeared first on The Onion.
