As far as my research is going, I’ve found more interesting websites that have thousands of links to proanorexic images, starvation tips and forums. Upon reading the entries on Wikipedia, I realized that there are no links to such websites on the proanorexia entry. I do fear that linking these websites may be harmful to young impressionable girls. If they search Wikipedia and find these links, they will have direct access to websites that can potentially influence and support their unhealthy behavior. Then again, if a person is determined to find such websites, all they need is knowledge of the internet, time and patience. These websites are not hard to find, especially with the evolution of search engines such as google, yahoo, chacha, ask.com etc.
I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed with all the information that I am bombarded with on these websites. From pro anorexic dietary tips, to poetry, stories, images, social networks such as MySpace, online communities on facebook there are so many links and sources for this entire community. This is a controversial topic that has been debated over and over again. I have gathered news information via, youtube and news websites
