For Fuck's Sake...
I was doing a little research for a writing project I'm working on and somehow came across Ana's Underground Grotto, a website that claims "anorexia is a lifestyle, not an illness or disorder". I'm ashamed to admit this but, I couldn't resist browsing around the site. This website features "Tips, Tricks, and Techniques" to help you avoid eating at all cost which include creating a "pro-ana" scrapbook, cleaning like an angry housewife on speed, and getting "off that lazy cow butt and take a walk or start working out" because "you still have pounds to lose don't you!" You can also browse pictures of other near-death-skinny people to help find your "thinspiration". Apparently, sickly-skinny has different looks, one of them being "hardcore bones". Now, try not to giggle, but there is also a "ritual" called "The Summoning of Anamadim" which should be performed "at 1:47 am upon the New Moon". Sounds crazy I know but this is the same website that claims "inner beauty is a joke". What am I saying? This website won the "Starving for Perfection Award for Excellence".
Despite what the creators of this website think, anorexia is a psychological disorder. Instead of promoting and glamorizing this illness, shouldn't they be seeking psychological help? No, of course not! Because being able to sharpen knives with your fucking rib cage is so attractive! My opinion may not matter much but I'm going to share just a few bits of advice to anyone who thinks that looking like a walking corpse is sexy.
1. Seek help...ASAP.
2. Stop glorifying a disease that is not only killing you but making you look repulsive.
3. For fuck's sake, eat something bitches! Food is good. It's not the devil. There is nothing wrong with having a little meat on your bones.
Don't get me wrong, I completely empathize with people who suffer from eating disorders and seek help. However, I feel nothing for idiots who praise the act of starving yourself. I wouldn't mind at all if you coughed, spit up a bone, and then choked on it.
