Iraqi Actor Enas Taleb to Sue The Economist For Using Her Pic in Article on 'Fat' Arab Women

Iraqi actor Enas Taleb is suing the Economist newspaper for using her photo in an article about Arab women being “fatter than men". The Economist article “Why women are fatter than men in the Arab world" argues that poverty, societal restrictions are among reasons responsible for keeping women at home, causing them to be more overweight than men. Taleb said that the article is an insult to Arab women, Iraqi women in particular, and asked why the Economist did not “take interest" in “fat women" in Europe or the US but in such women in the Arab world. https://t.co/hgfjGWxnET— Kinda Hamwi August 10, 2022 Iraqi actress Enas Taleb is suing @TheEconomist for their extremely racist, misogynistic cover.
