Government Should Ban Skinny Models To Curb Anorexia, Say Researchers

smoothjazz writes "Governments are justified to prevent very skinny models from walking the catwalk and ban photographs and advertisements suggesting that extreme thinness is attractive, according to a group of researchers who found that social and cultural environment influences on young women is largely responsible for the spread of chronic eating disorder."

Isn't it clear by now?

Oh, wait, are we not talking about code all of a sudden? Okay, in that case, dumb, skinny models, and no fat chicks.

In fact, forget I was here.

The study was only done in Europe.

So, as a simple and immediate solution to this problem, we only need to send half of obese American women to Europe in exchange for thin European women.

Is it really too much to ask for you and your wife to pay for your own birth control? As a celibate slashdotter I resent having to help cover the cost of your biannual matings.

APPROVED!

As a result Europe has declared war on the US. Except the Greeks, who are in even worse financial shape than the US. France surrendered before the declaration of war was formally declared.
