Meaning? Anorexia in the fashion industry has been in the news repeatedly over the past month. At least a half dozen nations instituted regulations for catwalk models - but the NYC fashion industry refuses to. This is a major worldwide controversy. The fashion industry dictates to girls and women what they should look like and some of them develop likelong - and life threatening - eating disorders as a result. As a man this issue might not be your cup of tea, but it is very important to women.

Ana Carolina Reston, was 5’ 8” tall and just 88 pounds when she died of anorexia-related complications at the age of 21.

Sometimes, the "rules" don't give the desired results.....
