A support group for people with anorexia sounds great, but not if it covers up the risks of continuing anorexic behavior. (Anorexia over time has many adverse effects: bone loss, osteoporosis, loss of fertility, lack of proper brain development, etc.) The human body is in danger of so many things if it's not being sustained.

I guess I just wouldn't want to see an impressionable individual go to this website and think that it's fine or remotely health to continue with some level of anorexia. If the website is clear about this, I'd say the decision rests with the individual. If not, this could actually be dangerous.]]>Jun 5th 2009 3:12PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/http://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/Jun 4th 2009 5:08PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/http://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/Jun 4th 2009 5:19PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/http://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/Jun 4th 2009 5:53PMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/http://www.switched.com/2009/06/04/the-webs-most-controversial-web-sites-3/
This anorexia seems to be a cultural problem. In my family and culture, people wanted to look curvy not skinny. You get chastised if your skinny and curvy people are admired. Strange how cultures can be so different and create different social problems.]]>Jan 31st 2010 6:36PM
