I understand the difference between anorexic and a naturally thin women.

Those who are (UK) sizes4 and under are few and far between in the black community.My cousin is very thin naturally but still only a size 8.

Seriously, not saying there is anything wrong with being thin, but it doesn't look very nice does it? Esp on black women.

It doesn't look very nice to you. There are some people who are very happy naturally being this thin and they are entitled to love their bodies just like everyone else is.

Exactly.

And not everyone with an eatingdisorder isskinny. Most bulmicscan be anything from a size 6 or underto a size 12 and over.You can't look at someone and just know that they have an eating disorder. I'm a size 6, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that I'm the second lowest size on the chart. Oh well, let people call me Westernized, a burden on the health care system, blah, blah, blah.

I guess I should join the club.
