Some people believe that the media (advertising, commercials, tv, magazines, music, ect.) can cause people, especially teenage girls, to become anorexic because it promotes "thin is good". Many models look beautiful, and almost every ad out there is photo touched to make it look perfect. If someone tries to emulate this, and tries to become "perfect", then they might become anorexic to try and become thin and do what they think will make them "more beautiful and perfect". Often, media and advertising tends to promote being thin.
