Incorporate Fat Phobia?

[edit]

I've been doing some research to try to improve this page and add more information/sources. A lot of things I find when I type in weight phobia is Obesophobia or "fat phobia." I'm thinking that incoporating or linking up with fat phobia may be beneficial to weight phobia. Anyone agree/disagree or have any other suggestions as to how to improve this page?

I'd be all for it. I am concerned, though, that the term doesn't quite fit into standard structure for -phobia (a Greek formation, I believe) - typically, a phobia is defined by one word (e.g., claustrophobia). Would it not be appropriate to merge this into an article with such a name? --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 16:39, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
