i appreciate voluptuous women, not fat women. and voluptuousness just does not work on me. i'm rail thin, yeah, but i still have my tits and THANK GOD they are a manageable size now. still large for my body size, but i look good.
anyway, you guys should not be ragging on anorexics or pro anorexia or whatever because youve never been there, so don't judge. just like if you've never BEEN or been close to a drug addict: you don't know what it's like, so SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTHS.

Fortunately one can be constitionally thin and still not be anorexic.
I almost agree with the second paragraph: some people here and in general can be really insensitive with anorexics while they have no clue what anorexia is really about. There's much more to it than fashion: very low self-esteem, fear of sexuality (I read that 1 in 2 female anorexics had been sexually abused as a child), affective troubles, identity crisis (for instance anorexia often affects people from foreign origin). Can you really blame someone for wanting to be appreciated and loved ?

What I don't agree with is what you say about the "pro-ana" movement. I find it inexcusable to prompt other people to put their body in danger.
