  • I am admitting that Anorexia and other eating disorders ARE an epidemic in our society. HOWEVER, the ENTIRE media is NOT responsible for our part. Magazines like Vogue are responsible. The message that thinner is better is very destructive.

    However, there is nothing wrong with displaying a HEALTHY image of a male and female. Working and and trying to look in shape is not bad in the slightest. Obesity is also an epidemic and should not be accepted by society either.

  • You're so right. In the modeling industry, they have regular stick thin models and then plus size models, who are actually larger than average, but if you fall in between and are fit with good muscle tone, then they don't want you. To combat the acceptance of overly thin women, the media wants us to accept obesity, which is JUST as bad. We should be seeing more girls who look like they eat well, enjoy food and exercise.

  • To blackberry and danroduw eating disorders and body image issues are not just white womens issues they effect men and people of color so do not be ignorant. As for dan I dont even know where to begin attacking your assertion that black people are stupid because of their social status especially considering upward mobility is happening in the black community. Secondly it's pretty foolish to assume that latinos lack formal education. I really dont have the comment space to address you though.

  • krissy4nik, don't get too upset. They're probably just trolls.

  • eh, true i should really learn not to feed them.
