Is it schools and tv that are making girls go annorexic?!


Question: what do you think?
I dont know, my friend has trouble with eating, and also my sister. they are so obsessed with eating and excercising that its affecting their social life and academics.
i just think its that its all the nutrition classes in school, coaches who tell what you cant eat, and what you cant, and commercials and all the americas next top model shows on tv.
they just pound it into your head
i think its getting a little ridiculous..

i think it's the media. there's ALWAYS something in the magazines or on TV about ''how this celeb stays/ got so thin!" then, on the other hand, there's always celebs being scrutinized for maybe gaining some weight. And most of these so called ''fat'' celebs are STILL thinner than the average woman/ girl. I know hollywood is all about being beautiful/glamorous, but i feel it is seriously affecting the young girls out there who feel they need to fit this standard as well.

I don' think its the nutrition classes....at least none that i've been in gave me that impression. I think its about peer pressure, and wanting to be "accepted". Its psychological....and probably a reslult of peers, media portayals of women, and upbringing.

I don't think it's the nutrition classes (in my opinion)...I personally believe it's the media...aka commercials, ads, magazines, etc...

yes, the media says that skinny is in and your not beautiful if your not skinny. if you take a look you will notice that it is very unattractive when you look like a stick, you look sick, you start to feel sick, and its very UNHEALTHY. Some people are naturally skinny, not talking bout them.

i agree witht the top guy,,,
There is influence everywhere, from the tv to school and peer pressure... It's uncontrollable unless you being a friend could persuade her not to do stuff like this anymore...
