Some of us are just naturally thin, eat a balanced diet, and exercise. We don't starve ourselves or vomit deliberately. So why the hate?

The issue isn't with the sizes themselves, but the pressure placed on society that 'skinny' is somehow better. Those sizes are unrealistic for many people including myself, yet sizes as small as 6 or 8 are deemed as 'fat' by Hollywood standards and skinny celebs are praised for achieving size 0 status, like it deserves a medal.
People are just taking out their frustrations, which isn't right, but things are getting out of hand and eating disorders are more prevalent than ever. I understand some people are naturally thin, but many are starving themselves thin just to fit in with ridiculous standards, so don't be surprised that people tend to get touchy about this subject.
Thank you.

I think what it is, is that people TRYING to be a 0 or 2 by starving themselves or not eating is when it is a crime. If you eat healthy and exercise and are naturally thin then that is great and you should be proud ! It's the girls that exercise excessivley don't eat much or throw it up, the people who are trying to be a smaller size then their body wants them to be. These models that look unhealthy skinny, thats when it is bad. There is a difference between a healthy looking skinny 0 or 2, and a underweight 0 or 2.

It bothers the hell out of me as well. I'm a very small frame and a size 0 or 00 and I'm tired of people saying I'm anorexic, etc. Some people don't understand that some people can be thin and still be healthy! I think it comes down to jealousy, personally. Why else would anyone honestly care?

when they try to convince people that starving yourself to be thin is popular and young people being followers that they are are influenced by it. I was very glad to see that they finally took notice and told some models no too skinny. It's really about time some one got a pair and put foot down..

i am with you. Seriously, we are the fattest people to walk the earth, and none of these overweight people seem to care, they figure since there are so many of them now, they just pat each other on the back and have childish jealous attitudes towards people in good shape. It drives me crazy. Weight is one thing there is no excuse for. it is completely in their control. People are just LAZY

Why don't you focus on something worthwhile you skinny bore of a girl. Read a book, get the newspaper. Learn how to love others and who care is your a size 0 or 12 ... Grow up!
