Are You Sure You Should be Wearing This?
Is this not the most ironic — and inappropriate — picture you’ve ever seen? Anorexia is a dangerous eating disorder that affects millions of people. It’s not a disease that should be taken lightly. Eating disorders are also mental health disorders. With all of the awareness raised about mental health in recent years, it’s surprising anyone would poke fun at it.
But that isn’t this man’s goal. Instead of owning his body as a representation of someone with a serious problem, he is proudly declaring himself victorious over people battling anorexia. This t-shirt mocking the disease is very insensitive and also draws attention to a person battling an eating disorder of their own: morbid obesity.
