Girls are pressured into being anorexic because they think that everything revolves around being cool and to be cool you have to be skinny. And them if you want guys to like you u have to be skinny. Girls take this very seriously and they think o my gosh i am to fat i need to lose weight i am to fat. They think that size two is the ideal body size. Because of all the publisity and all the stars are small they say o why am i not that small i need to be that small. They asume that no one likes obese girls and that's not true i my self am a size two but i am not proud of that i experianced being anorexic it's definatly caused by the surounds the influances in your life. Being Popular isn't everything trust me from experance if they don't like you for u then don't lose weight ur fine they way you r. girls don't think that they have low self of steam and it really shows in the way they act about there self and how they present there body . Girls always think they are fat so they become anorexic and balimic. That's my answer for this question.

AnswerPeople tend to want to be excepted and wanted in their society. There are some unwritten social standards that we all have in our society and subcultures. Girls have the standard of being skinny because that is what the standard is being portrayed at this period of time. Because of that girls take it to the next level which causes a mental disorder that never lets them think that they are skinny enough. AnswerI think girls are pressured intro being anorexic because they want to be skinny so people look at them, which isn't necessarily true. The celebrities probably don't help, girls want to be like what they see on tv, and well face it, there are A LOT of anorexic celebs.

To any girls who are suffering from Anorexia:

You are perfect how you are, it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, its what is inside that counts. :)

Answersome girls are presured into anorxia by peer presure

Girls are not pressured into becoming anorexic. Anorexia is a mental disorder and often times is not even related to body image. The type of anorexia which is sparked by media and models is only one of many types of eating disorders which are often times symptoms of different psychological problems such as the yearning for control, the yearning to feel pure and clean, or a way to relieve or cope with stress.

sometimes -- not usually. People who are anorexic do not like themselves, and if even you don't like yourself, it's hard for other people to like you.
