Global eating disorder prevalence increased from 3.5% to 7.8% between 2000 and 2018.

I genuinely believe its worse now than 2018, what with the mass marketing of GLP1 (or similar medicine), and the rise in popularity of the Looksmaxxing bullshit.

The truth is, billion-dollar corporations go out of their way to brainwash the masses that these body types, that are entirely unachievable for the hyper-majority of the population, are THE sex standard. They use this to convince impressionable and desperate people alike to buy buy buy to try to look like this.

The celebrities/models who profit off of it like Ariana Grande are just as guilty. People wanna talk about how EDs warp people’s minds. However, I don’t think its rational to suggest Ariana, and every other major figure, isn’t aware of what they’re doing. She’s made references to it in social media, at least one if her new songs, and always constantly puts emphasis on her exposed bones in front of every available camera.
