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. True, fair enough.
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 like being this small. Given the choice, I would still choose to be this small, you're welcome to love whatever size you are but there's no need to start judging people who don't fit into your "healthy" weight schema.

Does anyone ever call you skinny or say you look anorexic?
My hairdresser is what i would call slim, just found out she is a size 6. She looks fine to me.Can't see how she would be a burden on the health care system if its her normal natural body weight. I'm talking about the thin girls who have gone way beyond their normal natural body shape, thin with the lollipop effect head - looks disgusting

Yes, I have been called skinny but no one in their right mind would say that I look anorexic. I don't have my ribs sticking out or something. But still I have encountered judgementalpeople who are bent on trying to impose their prefered weight on me.If you'rebig,they'll complain and if you're small,they'll also complain. Perhaps some people should just learn to mind their own business and stop telling people how to look.
