I have had an eating disorder now- for 20 years. I currently maintain my weight- but it is there, lurking in my brain, infecting every thought I have about my appearance. Waiting for a moment to re-emerge unchecked. While our culture is not at fault for my eating disorder I do believe that it certainly did not help things any.
It makes me sick that some company is trying to make a profit off of the very susceptible pre-teen psyche of girls. If our culture feeds them the line that they need to worry about their appearance theywill, and we are setting up a whole new generation to go down that same crappy path. How dare they. How dare we, as women, as mothers, stand for it?
