Apologies for the low resolution. It was a mobile ad and all I could get was a screenshot.

    It’s also distasteful to encourage eating disorders to enter the modelling industry by exclusively featuring models that are extremely underweight, but I guess who are we to judge…

        The fact that you choose to take personally what was a comment about a model in an industry that specifically selects for extremely underweight models regardless of how they achieve that weight doesn’t mean that it was an insult directed at you. You are not the subject here. You may have a unique metabolism, but the industry projects an unhealthy and largely unattainable image for the vast majority of people.

        We aren’t ridiculing the model, we’re concerned for their health…

        That’s not skinny, that’s starvation thin. The person in the picture is clearly not eating enough, any suggestion otherwise is just giving power to the notion that it’s healthy to be that underweight.

        Not eating enough food is an eating disorder, regardless of the cause of it.
