The body mass index is a product of white supremacy, so says the Washington Post. From Washington Post, "Why BMI is a flawed health standard, especially for people of color": Many experts debate its effectiveness for people of all races and ethnicities — and criticize how it has become overinterpreted as a catchall proxy for body fat, nutritional status and health risk. Some say that assumptions, practices and policies based on BMI adversely affect Americans of color by shaping the diagnoses they receive, treatment they access and stigma they may face. And, they say, the measure’s very origin is racially problematic.Wait, I thought race didn't exist? Now you're telling me it's real and we should be basing public policy off it???
