The Size 0 Debate-- Going Too Far??

need i say more its been all over the news/papers/TV.
And the much awaited London Fashion week came under fire due to this.
what are ur thoughts?



i for one think they are going too far in to this, being of slender frame myself i feel really annoyed to the point of anger when ppl ask me weather i'm starving myself!?
and i'm not even a size 0!
i consider myself a healthy 8!
shouldn't ppl be more conserned about the growing number of obeses ppl in the world???
and for those who aren't naturally slim...wots wrong with wanting to be a size smaller, so long as its done in a healthy and safe way, without getting an eating disorder.

^I think that's what people are worried about, the fact that this could actually lead to an increase in eating disorders. It puts more pressure on teenagers and the lengths that they'll go through to look good is pretty extreme.


...and child obesity is a big thing now too. Lots of research is going into that and measures are being introduced.


It's really about tackling both extremes. :)

im not going to even comment.. well i dont want to...

i justt hatee looking at these boneyyy partss and goddd

i think its ridiculous! real women have curves!
i prefer a girl with some meat on her anyways, something to grab onto ;) lol

If you ask me, it alll has to do with how you raise your children. First of all parents let their children be exposed to such harsh things at an age where they should have no idea of how this world rolls. I see in everday life now, little girl having the age of what 5,6..with make-up, lil purses in their hands and ''teenage'' girls with cloths that you can say are atleast one size too small for them showing off ''everything'' they have, buying fashionmagazines too look at how people they dont know n perhaps never will know dress. At that age i was you could say still playing with barbies. Where's the role of the parents here?? As a parent, if you let your kids behave like that at that age thn you are automatically accepting the fact that they will have major problems as they grow older,both pysically n mentally.
You have to shape you kids while their young by teaching them values that really matter in life, make them feel they are your world, give them a comforting home without daily fights between mum and dad. If kids have a stable life at home, they are less likely to let things have such an influence on them. Children are tend to look for love,comfort,appreciation(etc.) from the outworld when they didnt receive this at home. That is why you have these ridiclous problems these days.

hmmm....interesting thoughts everyone.


but surely obesity is a more widespread problem.
i agree, no one should be a bag off bones,
yet super-model skinny women make up just 1/20 women. a very small minority
esp. in Britain and USA, obesity is the root of many heart desises and is growing.
like here Fast food ads on kids TV have been banned due to record number of kids being overweight.

i question what the bigger issue is here

obesity is DEFFOO a problem!!

it was in the news last week
Scotland is the second fattest country in da world..after USA.. *they deffo have massive ppl there* soo yeh.. i was thinking diss double 0 size is a probzz as well as obesityy

ohh its just plain rubbish this size 0.. ull NEVER get anything out of being that THIN! neways its just gna cause u to never have kids.. worrying other people to death why u dont eat..

its plain stupid...
ull NEVER ever find me not eating when theres food in front ov me... and da weird thing is.. am not exactly fat...

i hear people saying am going smaller and smaller.. when i eat and eat.. n am not even joking.. i eat and eat.. i eat soo much junkk food *not good i knw* but am not even fat like datt no where near obesity.. n i dont look like am fat... ma BMI is NORMAL.. am okay..

n i dont tink its parents... i tink its all this model, soaps, actresses that portrays the skinnyy people these days.. its all ADVERTISEMENT in ma eyes.. i mean... it has suchh a hugeee impactt on THOUSANDS ppl... i mean if advertising McDonald can gett ppl to eat MC*CRAP* *I ABSOLUTE HATE MCDONALDS* whyy cantt advertising tinyyyy ppl make girlss tink about stuff about beeing even small?

u shud live ur life how u want.. within limit.. ONLY FOR URSELF.. not for WHAT ppl show u.. wat ppl sayy... not to be like OTHERS.. but URSELF..

i mean... for example.. ppl say u can get tempted to smoke.. by da crowd u stay with... soo whyy dont ppl get temptd to be size double 0 with da whole looking at models, watching soaps and actresses?
same reason ^^ as i mentiond.
