Is this beauty? Is this really what young girls should aspire to be?Pro-ana is a problem. It encourages unhealthy diet and weight loss patterns in young women, and most pro-anas are under 22. Pro-anas, "wana-rexics", view anorexia as the coveted disease.
Anorexia to these people is a lifestyle choice, not an infliction as it should be considered. They are proud of there starving and encourage others to starve themselves.
What is worse is that there are also websites for pro-ana juniors. Were children encourage children, and nothing get done about it. There's specific forums for Mother's that are pro-ana. Yes an anorexic woman can look after her child, but can a pro ana woman? Can someone who believes to be "beautiful and delicate" skin and bones is a good thing really be capable of raising a well adjusted and happy child? Or will they merely grow up trying to not only emulate there Mother's skeletal fame, but also being encouraged to do so?
Pro-anas make a mockery of a serious and life threatening illness and I would urge anyone who feels likewise to log on and sign this petition:
