I'm a little tired....

of these attacks on skinny girls that are happening a lot lately. First I can't stand when entertainment shows bash skinny models in one segment and then the very next segment they compliment some women, say Christina Aguilera, for loosing all her baby weight. Talk about hypocritical. I understand bringing up concerns about certain girls who are obviously in danger like Nicole Ritchie once was but I don't like how every women who is skinny is automatically assumed to be anorexic: Giselle, Kate Moss, Natalie Portman, Keira Knightley...I went to Middle School and High School with a lot of girls who were naturally petite; no butt, no hips, no thighs, no breast. And I know that everyone who is skinny does not necessarily have a problem. There are women who were just born to be petite and will die petite. So lay off the naturally skinny chicks. Attacking a women's weight whether by saying she is too big or too small is dangerous. Weight is only part of the problem when someone has an eating disorder and there are also other mental and emotional factors. And someone who is already naturally skinny but has an emotional imbalence could be pushed over the edge because someone attacks their body.
