What girls think of themselves

JimK has a interesting post today about "a sad commentary on Western civilization". As a Dad I couldn't agree more.

Thing2 is 13. Not (thankfully) rail thin she looks like what a 13 year old girl should look like. I'm so glad she hasn't fallen into that trap. I hope we can keep her that way.

I can't understand why girls/women want to be so skinny. Why not just accept the body that you were blessed with and make the best of it? It can't be healthly to deprive the body of the nutrients that it needs. Keeps you healthly.
