Usually affecting young girls, Anorexia (in its short name) starts out as an innocent desire to lose a few pounds, and becomes serious when the individual's psychological state is not healed, and feelings of incompetence and depression re-appear.

... body can vary for different people.
Montaigne’s general philosophy on the relationship between the mind and the physical health of the body is one that associates a healthy existence with a healthy mind. His idea of a healthy mind is that which is learned through the studies of the “great thinkers” of the past, and steered clear of being taken control of by the omnipotent imagination.
In Montaigne’s essay “On the Education of Children,” Montaigne stresses the importance of education, but only promotes a select few genres of education as appropriate. Montaigne links these few genres of education directly to the well being of t ...

Advertising
... their perspective on what is, or is not, worth buying; what they buy, when they buy it and how much are bought. "symbolizes and concentrates in its image all that is considered good and bad in present day commercial and industrial capitalism in America." (Bensman 9).
When advertisers plan their strategies for the sale of a certain product, they look at who would use the item. If the product was make-up, the type of person that would use it would most likely be a woman, around the age of thirteen and up.
