moronic icon to ensnare teenage girls
Just whenever you thought it was safe to go back into the realm of the American teenager. Just when you thought it couldn't get much weirder or nastier or more packed with twisted pathos for our youth following the bitter onslaught of Britney and Avril and the WB and all sorts of those snide GOP/BushCo homophobic antisex abstinence messages .
Just whenever you thought nothing could top the rather pathetic new trend of rich 'n' unpleasant parents who buy gifts of Botox and cosmetic surgery for their warped lost teenagers and just once you recognize that it's all regulated ladled over with a violence-drenched aggro-marketing media maelstrom that makes most teens feel like glittery disposable chattel .
Just whenever you thought you'd seen it all,Roger vivier outlet, now comes the news that teenage girls are forming new, secret online clubs.
Not just any clubs, mind, but sassy nutball cultlike clubs whose leaders tell their followers things to eat and how to think and how to hide their big ugly secrets, their neurosis, their imminent damage, plus they actually have a unifying fashion symbol: they all wear little red wristbands to show their weird solidarity, their allegiance to some warped and unhappy goddess who goes by the Ana.
This is correct. This is happening now. And you may, at this point, think it's all regulated cute and good and Net-friendly and also you might say, aww, how great is the fact that, lonely lost teenage girls finding one another on the internet and making new friends and worshipping some celebrity named Ana, sharing secrets and diet tips and advice and isn't that just the best thing? Isn't that just the clear way of girls, socializing and sharing and emoting? Isn't that the genius from the Internet?
Why, sure it's. It's all special and warm and funky before you learn, obviously, that Ana is short for -- wait for it -- anorexia.
Yessirree. This is what girls refer to it as. Or,Roger vivier flats, rather, her. Ana is their secret closest friend. Ana is their salvation. They draw pictures of her, send her their prayers, recite her creed.
These girls, they love Ana plus they want to be with Ana constantly and they have bizarre little organizations who rally the sad and the faithful to love and follow Ana regardless of how hungry or sick or shriveled they get (Ana mocks them if they succumb to food), and if they choose not to befriend Ana they are able to also take a liking to Mia (bulimia) or get a new boyfriend in a totally popular guy named Ed (eating disorder).
This is not a joke. This is not useless. Based on this crazily disturbing story from , they are indeed the nicknames girls are using on blogs and sites and chat rooms for their new friends. And Ana is the queen.
Girls have anthropomorphized anorexia. To many,http://parajumpersoutletjackets.webmium.com/, she is now a genuine person, super-skinny wispy female perfection personified. They join Ana forums and tell one another things to eat, and just how, and why and why not, and they all apparently desire to be sickeningly, unhealthily, grossly skinny. skinny. Nicole Richie skinny. Nasty inedible unsexy skin 'n' rags toothpick Mary-Kate Olsen skinny. Corpse skinny.
But it is more than that. It's more than just the beauty myth doing its savage work once more -- this time around with the unstoppable assistance of the omnipotent Internet -- hammering girls and women with relentless images of impossible beauty.
It's not only the usual bizarre admixture of magazine ads and media spectacle and celebrity whoredom that makes them want, no matter what, to look completely bedraggled and curveless and perpetually expressionless and completely unsexy looking like meth-addicted mannequins with bleached teeth and flat-ironed eyelashes and stapled stomachs and dry, brittle spines and totally cute shoes.
It is also, obviously, about belonging. It's also about this savage severe teenage loneliness that makes you cling on to anything that makes you feel special or included. Do you remember that feeling? Can you recall? Can you now amplify that memory by roughly 100, slap it on a Coke marketing slogan making it right into a new lip gloss and splay it over the cover of a hundred magazines and launch it using a new viral marketing campaign across 10,000 Web sites? Since this is what we're facing.
It's a bit like cutting. Cutting is hot. Cutting is how it's at. The Ana thing is much like the stories of all of the beautiful young teen girls who intentionally cut themselves with knives and razors, because, well, because it's something to complete. It gets attention. Outer manifestation of inner pain.
And girls often cut themselves even when they have no real, deep-seated psychological issues or traumas, no real reason to do so apart from, well, because it's the thing to do. It's popular. It gets attention. Like binge drinking and drugs and sex and and hearing "OC" soundtracks on endless loop, cutting and anorexia are just what all the badass girls are into.
Or possibly it's about control. This is exactly what a number of my friends let me know. Eating disorders are what teenage girls cling to when the world around them is chaos and their families are a mess and the messages coming at them are savage and vicious and confusing,http://kevindurantnerfshoesreleasedate.blogspot.com/, and especially if they are the merchandise of broken homes or physical abuse or simply insane levels of pressure, the only thing left within their lives that's even remotely inside their control belongs to them bodies and also the food they barely put into it.
It's a method to keep yourself small in the world. A way to stay childlike. To cover from reality,peuterey jacket manufacturers, relationships, the repulsive and embarrassing examples they see of adulthood. It's a way to try and disappear.
But the great news is, barring any permanent harm to their organs or bones or whimpering souls, most girls will grow from the savage Ana/cutting self-abuse phase, just like the vast majority of teens of both genders hopefully grow from whatever tragic/moronic/morose anxieties that cover them like boa constrictors during those deadly and precious years from about 13 to 18, when all is harrowing and pimpled and angst ridden and torn and before everything starts to obtain a tiny bit easier.
Before, that's, the time when it all begins to calm down and gel and make a tiny bit more sense, when it evolves into the more enjoyable,kevin durant shoes, less traumatic adult phases of, you realize, obesity and sexual anxiety and alcoholism along with a rabid addiction to eBay. Ahem.
Such a miserable and ludicrous spectacle. And what sort of shame should we feel, ostensibly the world's most independent, free-thinking society (I understand, I understand), and still we can't come anywhere near to teaching women, girls,roger vivier boots, about the true power of the bodies, their individual spirits, a feeling of self-esteem and identity without that provided by media and peer pressure. Still we can't shift our perceptions of the flesh,Peuterey Jacket[/b], of identity, to a healthier, more open, more grounded place devoid of shame and fear and disgust. Such a thing.
And is it not so great to allow yourself think we're evolving within our understanding of a persons animal, improving,parajumpers jackets, progressing, learning as part of your before, much more fact,Roger vivier outlet, regardless of the mad rush of technology and science and also the staggering bounty we enjoy in this nation, despite the incredible beauty we're so very able to, we quite often appear to be doing just the opposite. Because there's Ana, as proof, shaking her head and laughing that sickening, bony, rib-cage-rattling laugh.
