Personally, I like guys that could actually protect me if I was in a fight with someone.

&I bet that if those guys lived with an anorexic they would hate it.
Plus.. honestly wouldn't it be rather uncomfortable to fuck a bag of bones?

Chandramukhi.:
Look at this:


LuccaDucati :
Extremely skinny isn't healthy... extremely fat isn't healthy neither.
But there's a big (!) difference:

Skinny is beautiful and sexy, while fat is disgusting.

In my opinion a beautiful woman is a very skinny, boney woman. And believe me: I'm not the only male thinking this way!

Yes, you can call me a 100% PRO ANA fanatic.

And that's my, OUR right!







aladdin:
hell yeah, skinny chicks are hot


______

no one's denying that skinny girls are pretty. I'd like to be skinny. I have a pretty face and I think more people would notice it if I wasn't so huge. But this guy says he has a right to be 100% Pro Ana. What. The. Fuck. He has a right to support anorexia if he's ever even had anorexia. I bet you, if he had a severely anorexic girlfriend, he would not be like that at all. He'd hate it from watching her suffer.

What if all the girls go around saying "skinny guys are hotz lol"? What if girls supported guys becoming anorexic? Actually, there's a fair amount of anorexic guys...


Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked

woah. very skinny, boney women have no boobs and ass. I just guess those guys Mom's didn't raise them properly.

from a young age society teaches us that skinny is beautiful, so we try and be like that. its a mental thing. the drive to be 'beautiful' and the peer pressure to conform to the current idea of beauty drives people to the extremes.

Actually, it depends on which 'society' you're from.

Some tribes in Africa, women strive to be fattest. But it's the same idea, pressure.

But that's the thing, these girls don't feel like they're under pressure. They think they're doing something right and healthy. They know that they have a disease, but they think it's a good thing. I found a post from someone saying "Okay, as long as you're not joinging to tell us we're doing something wrong, that's fine."

See?

I dont see how killing yourself is doing any good... and IT IS killing yourself
i watched a facinating program on BBC3 called child annorexics or something like that... and i recognised of of my friends from ages ago on there and was relieved to see that she ended up doing really well and i hated it that she was told off for eating pasta 2 days in a row even though it had completely differnt dressings and stuff when at least she was eating!
i think treatment needs a balenced mixuture of harsh realities *in some cases more than others* as in you WILL die. no doubt about it if you continue. and gentle encoragement cos i knew one of the girls personally and i knew she had the power to get over it she just had to want to.... switch her mind to controlling her diet in good ways not starving herself... and i would have been devastated if she'd died from it cos she's an amazing person...

right now ive been getting skinnier and i actually dont like it.. my allready thin arms are getting like sticks and i hate it ... i dont wanna b fat but i dont wanna b thin at the same time.. its such a fine balance and it needs to b sorted rationally not in some sick twisted competitions of who can die of starvation first... i just read on one of the sites that someone was offline "for a bit" and everyone was wishing her well... yet nobody seemed to get that she is dying! and they all are... i mean we are all dying realy but so slowly its not really a big deal at all but an average human can live only 3 days without food or something and not eating will kill you.... personally i'd rather b a little bit overweight than dead.

Nicky and Cambria. Haha.:
I don't know if anyone's heard, but there's these sick websites that promote anorexia, with two people called ANA and MIA (ANArexia ; buluMIA) who pretend to love you and give you "thinspiration" and use pictures of fat people to say "this is what you'll look like if you eat". and stuff.

It's really sick, and if you search on yahoo!, you'll find hundreds of the pro ANA/MIA websites, including Xangas etc.

One sufferer's Xanga records her daily intake, and on the latest entry, all she ate was some popcorn. Someone then comments and says "too bad about the popcorn, you'll do better tomorrow."

They also have little slogans like "thinner is the winner!" and it's also become sorta like a religion, with ANA/MIA bracelets and prayers to the god ANA asking her to make them thinner.

Anyone else think this is beyond sick?


It's pretty horrible. I mean everyone's beautiful right? Whether it's inside or out or both. I know I'm not at the best weight right now, but I really don't care. Of course if I weighed 100 pounds overweight, then I'd care. I'm not even going to search. Who knows? I could get addicted to it.

These websites are just scary. I recently lost a bit of weight and my parents are freaking out. The doctor said the amount I lost was disturbing, which oh yah, that so makes me feel better. And than my parents basicly accused me of being anorexic. Yah, that really made me feel great. My BMI is fine and I haven't gone on any bizare diets so I don't really see whats wrong.

Goes to show you just how much outer image is valued in modern culture. I mean, who cares if girls (and some guys) are puking their meals out every day or starving themselves? As long as we meet society's expectations, then who cares about our means of gaining that "Ultimate Body"?

And it varies, country to country, but as some other people said, it's the idea of how influential peer pressure can be. Because people can be cruel. I mean, people who aren't so attractive are treated differently compared to those who are. And many people are teased of it, I find that pretty sad. So it's no wonder that so many people are reducing to eating disorders to find a way to better themselves, because all they want is acceptance.

Sometimes, I get like that too. I'm really worried about my apperance because I used to be teased a lot back in elementary school. It continued in sixth grade, in my new middle school, because I was breaking out and the person who cut my hair fucked it up, and I was in a new school with only ONE friend from my old one. My weight's 148 pounds, and even though it's muscle, as I've been told, I constantly worry about my image and constantly fret over whether people are judging me by the minute. So, in a way, I can relate to those type of people. For those who haven't been teased, it REALLY damages you in some way. I have trouble trusting people and getting to know new people now.

Anorexics and bulemics... that's what happens when pressure gets to you.

A really interesting book on Bulimia/Anorexia is Wasted: A Memoir of Anorexia and Bulimia by Marya Hornbacher. She is bulimic from age 9 on, and discusses the influences around her and her state of mind at that time. It's a really intense book and is a well written account on her [eating] disorders.

I think people find.. comfort in those kinds of websites.

Obviously you all don't, but for people who are anorexic or bulimic, it.. I don't know. I think it makes them feel at ease a little bit.

And I don't think there's anything wrong with saying "Okay, as long as you're not joining to tell us we're doing something wrong, that's fine." think of it this way, I know not all of you like Green Day anymore, but say you do, a lot. It's something you truly believe in with all your heart. And then someone comes and says "Eurgh that's wrong that's stupid, you're so stupid, go listen to better music", completly putting down your views, opinions, something you care so much about.

It's basically the same thing.

I even hate it when my friends goes "oh my god they're so skinny they're like anorexic". It's because she sees the word anorexic as a way to describe thin people, and it shits me right up the wall. She doesn't get it that people really suffer and it's a terrible thing o.o
