Big and Beautiful?
Weight loss has become a multi-billiondollar industry1 in many parts of the world. But in rural2 western Africa, wheretradition3
values obese4 women, many young Mauritaniangirls are force-fed (also known as gavage 1 ) to become more attractive to men.While many women across the globe count calories 5, skip desser t , and pay forexpensive gym memberships, ten percent of Mauri tanian women are overeating topack on the pounds2, all in the name of beauty.
"A thin woman feels like bones. A fatwoman feels soft. It is interesting and exciting. When a woman is big, it showsthat she is well taken care of because her family can afford to feed her alot," says 25-year-old male Mohammed M'Barek. "It is tradition. It isour culture."
A recent study suggests that this custom isdying out. While over one-third of Mauritanian women over-ate to improvemarriage prospects6
a generation7 ago, only about 10 percentcontinue to engage in the practice. Many of these young girls are sent to"fat farms" to consume foods high in calories, such as couscous8 andcow and goat's milk, to gain weight. For many, it is against their will9. It isnot uncommon for girls to be woken up in the middle of the night to eat and tobe punished for refusing to eat.
"This tradition is old-fashioned.Obesity is known to cause many health issues such as diabetes10 and heartdisease. I don't want my daughter to die young," said the mother of anine-year-old girl who will not be sent to one of many "fat farms" inrural Mauritania along with
some of her friends. "Modern11Mauritanian women want to eat normally and be healthy, not be force-fed."
1 gavage(法文),指强饲。
2 pack on the pounds 指增胖。
