26 Disorderly Anorexic Controversies
From Size Zero Glamorization to Anti-Anorexia Art:
Meghan Young — Nov 5, 2009 — Lifestyle
Although we have seen a significant push towards ‘real beauty’ (thanks Dove) and overall steps towards healthy living, anorexia and super-skinny women will not disappear overnight. There still exists disorderly anorexic controversies for and against (damn right) the debilitating disorder. It saddens me that men and women are still struggling, on such an extreme level, with their weight. It saddens me more that there are ‘pro-anorexic’ people and groups (er, Ralph Lauren).
