Women are so horrible to each other.


She has an obvious problem: waaayy too thin.


The problem here is you. She is a real person with real feelings. Not an object for you to tear down because you feel like it.
I get what you're saying. But this could be said of every celebrity and famous person. Gossip, speculation, and rumors come with being a celebrity.


All gross behaviors because some people feel entitled to intrude.

You are not actually required to do any of that. Life will actually go on if you MYOB.


DP. Will it? This isn't a private citizen walking down the street minding her own business. She is a public figure who is held up as someone with a life and body for little girls to aspire to. Role models with eating disorders in media have a direct impact on the prevalence of anorexia in young women.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2792687/

Field et al (16) found that the importance of thinness and trying to look like women on television, in movies or in magazines were predictive of young girls (9 to 14 years old) beginning to purge at least monthly. In another prospective study (17), this same group found that both boys and girls (aged 9 to 14 years old) who were making an effort to look like the figures in the media, were more likely than their peers to develop weight concerns and become constant dieters.

One study measured indicators of disordered eating in a “media naïve population” of Fijian schoolgirls after the introduction of Western television. The key indicators of disordered eating were found to be significantly more prevalent following prolonged television exposure, suggesting a negative impact of this media. Among the narrative data was the frequent theme of subjects reporting an interest in weight loss as a means of modelling themselves after television characters (18).

A study of the relationship between media and eating disorders among undergraduate college students found that media exposure predicted disordered eating symptomatology, drive for thinness, body dissatisfaction and ineffectiveness in women, and endorsement of personal thinness and dieting in men (19).


You are not the designated hall monitor of women’s health and appearance.

And you are making many assumptions. Leave her alone.


If she wanted to be left alone, she could become a private citizen. She’s not someone who became a celebrity by accident. Many are critical of fashion magazines and designers who use models who are excessively thin. Why should we not be equally, if not more, critical of production companies that use “personalities” who become unhealthy role models for young girls? It doesn’t matter why she’s too thin. It presents an unrealistic ideal for women, and provides validation for those suffering from eating disorders.

Yes, I agree with everything but especially the bolded. I'm also a naturally small person who used to have an eating disorder. She throws up major red flags for me.

I don't think this thread is necessarily about tearing her down. She has some muscle wasting associated with anorexia nervosa. It's visible. She lifts so she has upper body musculature but that does not negate the possibility that she severely restricts her food intake and or major food groups and may have the body image distortion, obsessionality, control issues and irrational fears of weight gain associated with a disease process, ie Anorexia Nervous. Not sure why you seem offended, it has little to do with you personally.


You don’t know any of that. You are intruding into her personal life and making many various assumptions.

Leave her alone.
