Oh, hey -- no offense meant or anything -- I too have a deeply unhealthy obsession with the too-skinny -- but I battled eating disorders and body dysmorphia for many years. I don't think the dysmorphia truly goes away completely but I get around it by keeping my fursona rather starved -- I tend to draw him very emaciated if I'm stressed and just 'kind of thin/fit' when I'm feeling decent, as a general rule of what comes out of my head.
No harm meant, though - I'm just really vocal about it because I don't like to perpetuate the idea that things literally dying of starvation are healthy. :) They're not, as much as that appeals to me. I try to be proactive about it. XD Groups where people encourage each other in that kind of behaviour ring of sickness to me and the people don't really, for the most part, understand that they're mentally unwell and the eating disorder isn't a cure, it's a symptom and a coping mechanism.

I do the same thing - to romanticize those particular illnesses. Similar to how some people think drinking is cool or whatever -- that's just their coping mechanism of choice. It was just meant as an 'in general' comment, not directed at you personally! :) I certainly still think skinny is sexy myself, whether or not it's healthy.
It's okay, I think a lot of people do, just as long as we don't end up hurting ourselves or others with those ideals, or at least that's the hope, I mean if those ideals become actions, i think I am articulating it okay, you know what I mean x3
And it's okay, I know you well enough that I didn't take offense at all, I just was worried I might have upset you by being insensitive <3
Yeah, I've always been the same way, maybe someday I can lose a little weight, though not too much *nods* I would be less sweaty and self conscious and have more energy as well methinks ^^

I believe it! I actually wouldn't eat it if I had another choice though - or taco pizza.. just so many better types IMO! Not a big fan of the ground beef on pizza, honestly. I mean, it's still pizza, so it's great, but not my first choice. :) But I believe you make a great one that's probably better than what you get at the usual places..
