Why are some people obsessed with looking skinny? These celebrities are setting such a bad example..?
Its not obsessed with being skinny. People are obsessed with having what they cannot have because they believe that those are the things that will make them happy or special or popular or whatever. Being skinny is just another thing that real people cannot pull off healthily. All these skinny celebs may look like they are on the brink of death but i doubt very much they are. They will have experts who know what exactly your body needs and how to get it without having a high body fat – suppliments, hormones, dietry requirements – you name it. It is the normal people, without the education and without the experts that copy these trends that are at risk – not the celebrities. So yes, the celebrities are setting a bad example by cheating the risks associated to being underweight but allowing the ignorant public to aspire to be the same knowing they won’t ahve the same resourses at hand.
