Anorexic Ad Gets Heavy


After super skinny models caused such an uproar at the Milan Fashion Week last year, Milan banned girls with a body mass index of below 18 from its catwalks, announced a new catwalk code of conduct which obliges models to carry medical certificates, and opened fashion week with a show featuring more shapely models. To top it off, they came out with this ad featuring an anorexic woman:
Isabelle Caro, the French woman who appears in the photo, has been anorexic for 15 years, weighs 31 kg (68 lb) and suffers from the skin disease psoriasis.

"I hid myself and covered myself up for too long," she told Vanity Fair magazine in an interview to be published on Wednesday. "Now I want to show myself without fear even though I know my body is repugnant."

The Nolita campaign has received backing from the Ministry of Health, and the statement quotes Health Minister Livia Turco saying it can "promote responsibility towards the problem of anorexia".
Repugnant? I happen to find women with extremely pointy kneecaps to be super-duper hotness personified. Yum yum.

A long time ago I made it my personal goal to only date women that don't cost me more than 17 cents per meal. There is nothing sexier to me than watching a woman mow down on a string of spaghetti for 7 hours... and then going to the washroom to puke it out. I know this may be offensive to many of you, but so is the word penis, cock, titties and bumhole. What's my point? I have no point, but I don't get to type the word bumhole very often.

Getting back to the skinny broad for a second. Anorexics don't care about what other women look like, they only care what THEY themselves look like. That's why these ads won't work (other than getting me fully erect and randy as a fly on shit). How do I know that anorexics think this way? The 4 anorexics in my glove box told me so.

Momma mia!
