What is the major reason of girls being obsessed on weight-loss?

With all this scare of anorexia, there are fewer anorexics out there than obese, unhealthy people. People have to rethink the approach as being lifestyle changes and not short term crash diets. 0% 0 Votes

There are a couple reasons, one is the media. It distorts what a girls self-image should be. There are also skinny, pretty girls everywhere on TV, in magazines, in the movies, etc. The media also gets on stars when it looks like they have gained a couple pounds, ask any actress and they will tell you there is constant scrutiny to be thin. Then there is the public perception that overweight girls are lazy, men don%26#039;t get the same public perception when they are overweight. Plus, think about your days in High School, weren%26#039;t the popular girls all thin and pretty. You grow up thinking that in order to be popular you must look like them....think and pretty. I%26#039;ve even heard one where it has been blamed on the Barbie Doll. Barbie was supposed to be an anatomically perfect female. 0% 0 Votes

They see images of very thin models and actresses on televison, magazine covers, and clothing ads. Some young girls think that they have to be ultra thin in order to be pretty, achieve success, be rich, get the cute guy, etc. and then they start down the road to self destruction. 0% 0 Votes

its societies values on %26quot;thiness%26quot; as being accepted into society...females think males want them to be skinner when in fact males do not want them to be superthin....so its more a female vs a female sort of thing... 0% 0 Votes
