Sorry for the contraversial and depressing subject but I saw this and really felt the need to say something . Reblog with your thoughts , this issue is not talked about enough! No before you start this one isn’t actually photoshopped!!

I am ignorant in the way that I have no idea what this model’s name is . However it’s clear that she must be going through hell . I have no idea why people employ people this skinny [1]Most people think about how skinny the girl is and not the clothes they are promoting or how good the photographers shot is . [2]It really sends out the wrong message!!

I myself know people who have had eating disorders , not to this extreme though . I’m not blaming models like these , don’t get me wrong , I know there are other social factors aswell but really I meen the media needs to wise up! Why use people like this anymore , I’m not being harsh but it isn’t normal , this is not how we were supposed to develop as humans .

That girl is probably going through hell . What is her manager doing to her?? Why do employers bother it is only making her think it is more acceptable to be this skinny . Why don’t they think about the impact it is having on young girls?

Anorexia as we all know is most likley to start in teenage years , the years where we are conscious of our image . Clearly flicking through magazines and seeing things like this are not helping!! ”Anorexia affects approximately 1 in 150 fifteen-year-old females, and 1 in 1000 fifteen-year-old males.” With statistics like this in the U.K alone why is the media not taking responsibility .

There is a difference between being healthy and being skinny!
These are the first signs of anorexia effecting your body , do they sound healthy to you?

• Loss of menstrual periods
• Lack of energy and weakness
• Feeling cold all the time
• Dry, yellowish skin

• Constipation and abdominal pain
• Restlessness and insomnia
• Dizziness, fainting, and headaches

• Growth of fine hair all over the body and face

On the same website I found this .

Did anyone buy Heat this week?
Even in there it was talking about anorexia . Victoria Beckham has employed ”Pro anorexia” model Eugenia Mandzhieva to wear her clothes on her 2010 Autumn / Winter RTW range .

This model is seen as some sort of poster girl on websites that encourage anorexia . Victoria should have done her homework because personally I think it’s sick how you can encourage someone to become anorexic . The more you give people like this jobs the more you promote being skinny . Ok I meen they have to live so they need jobs but why not draw a line atleast . I’ll hire you if you put on this much etc or I won’t hire someone under whatever weight .

Seriously does no one else think the media has a responsibility!?

I’m pretty sure that this particular picture is photoshopped, but that doesn’t make it any less true - many anorexics DO look like this, and it’s so terribly sad.

It’s not photoshopped, it’s an actual model. I can’t remember her name, but she does actually look like that.

It IS photoshopped. She actually doesn’t look much different normally though.
