"A cultural fixation on female thinness is not an obsession about female beauty but an obsession about female obedience"
-Naomi Wolf, The Beauty Myth

The bottom line: Eating disorders are a FEMINIST issue. Get involved, raise awareness, and do your best to combat our culture's unobtainable/unhealthy beauty ideal in your daily life.
