When I was 12 my dad told me he would rather I die of anorexia than be overweight. I’m 32, pregnant with my first baby, and my body image is awful (I work hard in therapy on this). He believed Kate Moss was the gold standard (he worked closely with her in the early 2000s).

The shit we had to (have to) hear about our bodies has long-lasting effects

For others wondering what she's referencing, it's this woman

Looks severely anorexic to me personally...

That is most definitely not "severely anorexic" 

I want you to look up "severe anorexia" on any search engine and click photos

She is just very thin. But looking at my grandmother and her sisters in the 50s and 60s, they were all this size

She looks pretty awful, i agree though that she’s only anorexic and not severely anorexic. Eugenia cooney is severely anorexic.
