Im seeing alot of ED tumblr type content on tiktok lately. People blatantly promoting eating disorders and starvation diets. Alot of girls are posting videos of themself looking skeletal thin and saying its weight loss goals. This will do so much harm. Why are we promoting anorexic thinness again.

Its all over tiktok now. Pro anorexia content. They keep calling it skinnytok but its preaching eating disorder rhetoric . Its telling women advice like counting calories and fasting and eating only small amounts. This is how body dysmorphia and anorexia starts.

i’ve seen so much of this! recovering from an ed myself this type of content doesn’t help. along with the fact i see 10-13 year olds commenting on those videos saying they wish they looked like that. i’ve been seeing “fatspo” too and they’ll use pictures of tate mcray calling her that. healthy=overweight nowadays.

I don’t see any of it, not my fyp at all, perhaps it’s a reflection of what you look at, not saying that it’s justified but just giving my 2 cents

That Awful account Eugenia Clooney is a massive red flag and many many others like myself have reported it to get it shut down. No way should sue be on social media. Not only is she very sick but it will be extremely triggering. I hate how social media puts in lip service but does sweet FA - anorexia is the biggest mental health killer.

i've seen a lot of skinny propaganda sneaked into fat activist content too. for example people started saying sizes 6 and 8 were plus sizes which i find absolutely enraging. people are scared to be called that and will start losing weight. even in the blatantly fatphobic early 2000s those were considers normal or small sizes. i don't know if clothing companies in the us started relabeling their sizes but here in europe if it has those on the label next to the euro size they are small. used to be xs/s. calling those anything other is irresponsible ed culture
