Je Ne Mange

Possibly the most
Depressing profile of
All time.

It's from a girl
With an eating disorder
And posts pics
Of girls who are way too skinny.

Since when are bones sexy
And perfect?

I'm not saying that
As a condescending thing.
But I think healthy
Is hot.

It took me so long
To learn that.
After I started
Eating well
And exercising.

I'm not going to
Start going off
About how society
Makes girls think that.

Seeing skinny girls with ribs
Sticking out.
Seeing Victoria's Secret models
In their bodily perfection.
Seeing women like Anna Kournikova
And their perfect bodies.

I'm sure it might,
To some extent.

But most insecurities
Come from within.

But I don't think
Starving yourself
Is a solution.
Because fatigue is never fun.
