Why are anorexic people almost all exclusively white women?

[Febbie]

Has anyone ever wondered that? I don’t get it. I really don’t have any sympathy for anyone with this condition. It may come across as harsh but that’s my honest opinion. Human beings are designed to eat. Denying your body sustenance is a form of self-torture. Take responsibility otherwise you're pathetic.

I mentioned this to my friend, he responded by saying it’s hard for black people to be anorexic. A whiff of fried chicken and they’ll start to salivate lol.

What do you guys think?

Waryaa, it's a mental illness. Stop being a dick to mentally unwell people. You're not being controversial, tough or edgy but just a dick. You can do better.

a few years ago, i was to be active on a pro-ana forum and there were all kinds of girls on there( desi, asian, arab, black, white) i even saw some ethiopians and somalis on the site.

A lot of people in Somalia and myself even would qualify as mildly anorexic, it's not painful or deliberate. I'm 5'10" and weigh something like 120 lbs.

It's a terrible mental condition. Imagine eating food and vomiting right out because you don't want to gain weight. Imagine seeing your loved ones not eat food in the fear of looking fat when they are severely underweight.

I disagree. I think its a form of attention seeking. Whats having an opinion got anything to do with being tough?

Also, why is this condition exclusively white women? Have you considered that?

Most anorexic people are teenage girls because they are impressionable at that age. They see some skinny model on a TV and magazine and then starve themself to look like that. They usually grow out of it by their late teens but by that time they have caused some damage. They stunt their growth a girl who could have been 5'9 is now 5'5. My biggest regret in life was not eating more and healthier when I was in my teens. I 100% sure I stunted my growth I could have been 6'2 but I'm 5'11 I wish I could go back in time and change that

5'11 is above average height. That is NOT stunted growth.

Depression is a worldwide condition that affects people of every race and ethnicity. Male and female. Anorexia is a problem for white women living in western wealthy nation. Totally different condition.

Ya I know 5'11 is above average height.
Height is like 70% to 80% genetic if I ate more and better I'm certain I could have got a couple more inches in height

How many Black people do you see who suffer from anorexia? Have you not been the least bit curious why white women from privileged backgrounds almost exclusively suffer from this?

Connect the dots dude... HELLO!

? So Black Women cannot be privileged? I've seen many black women suffer from this condition.
In fact this anorexia was a factor in death of Trevor Phillips Daughter. She's black BTW.

Trevor Philips daughter is half white from a wealthy background. I didn't say black people with anorexia don't exist, however this is a problem that is almost exclusively affected by prosperous white women living in the west.

Young women from all backgrounds are dying from anorexia and here we have is someone taking the piss because they're trying to be edgy and funny.
