AAAH interesting. who's to blame? I don't think it's that easy to
point
fingers at any one particular thing or person. I think that in some
ways
the girls can be blamed but come on now, it's not like there is
something
wrong with the entire female gender that makes them too weak to overcome
eating disorders or something. there has to be a reason as to why
diseases
like anorexia are usually found in women and not men. it can't all be
their
own doing.
