DON'T HATE MEBecause I'm Beautiful![]() Post-op photo of liposuction by Sarah A. Friedman. Two months ago VICE featured a 90-pound anorexic woman as a DONT and called her a fat fucking pig. When the eating disorders (or EDs, as they call them) world got ahold of it, they ran to their computers and filled up every ED message board on the net. Heres our favorite. POST SUBJECT: VICE DONTS tiny arms/anorexia insult Posted: Tue Oct 01, 2002 5:21 pm I think their point is that men arent attracted to girls that thin so why do they bother fasting? but that misses a major point. I for one dont give a rats ass about what others think of my weight. I know Id be more attractive to most men if I put on a few. So? Wanting to impress someone else is rarely enough motivation for long term starvation. My ex-boyfriend even had the gall to say that I should be careful because all this flirting with death can lead to shitty tits in the long run. Like that would stop me.

Im not going to bother with that debate because secretly I agree and think that about myself. Glass Posted: Tue Oct 01, 2002 6:13 pm When my son died I didnt think I was worthy of food, happiness, love. I feel guilty splurging. That wouldnt go away if I were the only one left on earth. It wont go away if some guy tells me hell love me at 125 pounds versus my 96-pound body. Lonesome dove Posted: Tue Oct 01, 2002 7:44 pm I appreciate the full figured woman. Like anything, its how people carry themselves. I choose to starve myself because I want to disappear. I do not want to be seen. And as for what guys like, I DONT GIVE A FLYING FUCK. Men are the last people I want physical attention from. That is why Im blessed to have a husband that doesnt care for sex either. THANK GOD. I prefer to starve because it makes me feel calm. Its the only thing that gives me comfort. Shrinking happens to be a side effect of starvation, and thats fine with me. d.i.e.y.e.t Posted: Tue Oct 01, 2002 8:25 pm If you have trouble with those messy complications that are relationshipswhether of the platonic, romantic or simply fuck-me-now varietyan ED does make some whacked sort of sense.
