What pisses me off most about this article is the whole, "but what if this gives girls eating disorders!?!!?" bullshit. You can't save everyone all the time. And stop making girls seem weak by saying words are going to cause them to gain mental disorders. You can't go around applauding fatties for saying they're beautiful and then bash thin people for stating the same thing. That's not body positivity; it's fat propaganda.

It also completely ignores the fact that eating disorders reach far deeper than "I wanna lose weight". They're legitimate mental disorders that are closely related to OCD and are driven by control.

And let's be real, these fat fucks complaining that they're "recovered from an ED" are full of shit. Going on a 1200 calorie diet for a week doesn't constitute an eating disorder.

Binge eating till you are morbidly obese does count as an eating disorder I imagine. Funny how they never bring that up.

I'm late to this post, but I just really had to say thank you for pointing out the assumption they're making by claiming a sentence can cause eating disorders. It's also completely ignoring the fact that most eating disorders are caused by mental issues first and foremost. I get so infuriated at this nonsense, ugh.
