Development and Publication
The parentheses that encompass the word "my" in the title signifies the physical barrier of weight-gain that Gay has built for herself in response to her emotional trauma, and also "marks the difficulty of the bracketed female self and voice breaking out of its ambiguous armor."

Content
Gay also addresses the concept of personal space, and how being obese has affected the way people perceive and treat her in her day-to-day life. She criticizes the female clothing market, weight-loss systems and their advertisements, public figures, public transportation, and certain agencies with whom she conducts business for not conscientiously accommodating to the needs of those who are overweight. She remarks how this negligence is damaging to her identity and self-esteem.

Article Evaluation
I chose to to my evaluation on Jim Crow laws.

- A lot of the sentence structure was distracting, as it sounded like a lot of the information was forced.

-There is a troubling lack of citations for important claims.

- The section heading titled "Removal" is vague and could be updated.

- There seems to be a bit of animosity toward white people in a few segments, which could be made to be more objective and less biased.

- Many of the sources come from newspapers of the time, which are very obviously biased in and of themselves. However, most of the claims made from these sources are proven by the bias of the sources.

- Many of the conversations had on the Talks page are about proper citation and removal of biases.

- The article is a part of six Wikiprojects
