Pro Ana

The internet is full of some pretty twisted things, but this takes the freaking cake. There's a growing community of people finding support in an underground movement that promotes anorexia. They call her Ana, and she is the subject of prayers, poetry, and even an anorexic creed. When I read the AP story, I decided to visit some of these sites. Oddly enough, none of them feature pictorials of people who have successfully reached their target weight with Ana's help. I think that's because most of them are dead. These websites strongly discourage any comments criticizing Ana and their chosen lifestyle. Below are some links. I want these webmasters inundated with mail. It's the most appropriate thing for them, absent a firing squad.

Ana's Underground Grotto
Ana Gurlz
Ana's Heaven
Beautiful Perfection

Now these sites are just the tip of the iceberg. Please give them a piece of your mind.

Blah... tell me what right you have to judge these people and what right you have to inundate them with mail, and why they shouldnt do it to you in return....and if you come up with a visable reason i might actually agree with you ;)

What right? These people are encouraging young girls to destroy themselves! You're just another fucking pro Ana jackass, aren't you? Otherwise this would require no explanation!
