What people are saying
Discussions reflect a mixture of support and skepticism toward the study, with some emphasizing that women face more discrimination, as seen in phrases like 'women have more chance to get callback when fit,' while others question methodological approaches or highlight gender biases. The tone varies from factual to sarcastic, showing nuanced engagement with the topic’s social implications.
Most discussions acknowledge the study's findings about discrimination against obese women, although some challenge the conclusions or interpret them differently.
Participants show moderate interest, engaging with the topic through critique and discussion, but some dismiss or downplay the significance of the research.
Comments include references to research methods, gender dynamics, and societal implications, indicating a moderate level of thoughtful engagement.
The discussions raise awareness of gender and weight biases, suggesting the topic prompts consideration of social discrimination issues, but the overall influence remains modest.
Abstract in brief
- The study uses a correspondence audit to examine how obesity affects hiring discrimination in Mexico, finding that obese women face significant bias while obese men do not.
- Obese women receive fewer callbacks than nonobese women, with a notable gap of about 8 percentage points, implying they need to send more resumes to achieve equal opportunities.
- The research explores various reasons for this discrimination—such as customer, employer, productivity perceptions, and gender—but finds no conclusive evidence pinpointing a single cause, though male contact persons in ads contribute to more discrimination.]

@Tekla_alkeT @yoko67 @Judith_Char @JaniceFiamengo Obesity and hiring discrimination study wanted to prove how women oppressed ! Guess what ? it's men who are oppressed ! Women have more chance to get callback when fit, and equal chance when fat. Saying that women have to work harder is BS. https://t.co/3y2uTFETN9

How do we #ethically and accurately conduct research on weight bias? A recent paper used the unique method of digitally manipulating photos of thin people so that they were perceived as larger for a study on hiring discrimination. Is this a sound method? https://t.co/JQjnQl0xX6 https://t.co/FsfK5V48dm
