Nicole Ratzlaff (Edison) Body Image

In todays society we are told that unless you are a size zero you are not attractive. The media and runway models embed this into our minds.  This mind set has led many women down the road of bulemia and anorexia.  We are now a society that has little girls worrying about there weight. We have teenagers refusing to eat and if they do eat vomiting it back up. While agree that it is not healthy to be obese it is also not healthy, physically or mentally, to starve your body or to continually have stomach passing through the esophagus. Wouldn’t it benefit our society more to tell people that they are beautiful just the way they are? Why purposefully attach a stigma to someone for not being a size zero?
