Fatspiration! What a great word!
Some of you might not know about websites that exist called pro-ana & pro-mia. I just learned about them in the last couple of months. Pro-ana is pro-anorexia. Pro-mia is pro-bulimia. These sites are where anorexics & bulimics hang out online & cheer one another on in continuing to starve & purge. It is my understanding that they even have contests to see who can do the best job of starving & puking...with the contests occasionally ending in a death. It is sick sick sick. There has been controversy over whether these sites should even be allowed to exist. Visit MamaVisionto find out more about this issue.
These pro-ana mia girls encourage one another to look at visual material called thinspiration. Thinspiration material usually consists of photos or videos of extremely thin girls, often famous girls such as the Olsen twins, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie or fashion models. Anorexic & bulimic girls use these photos & videos to inspire them & motivate them in their quest for thin beauty.
Well, Cherie at Fat Girl Blog has come up with a "Fatspiration" photo montage. And girls, it is truly inspirational! I did a big whooping war cry when I looked at the photos of these spectacularly gorgeous women. Don't tell me thin is in. Who wouldn't want to look at & look like these beautiful women. I am totally inspired to love myself as a big woman today. Thanks Cherie! Mwah!
