Lauren Greenfield: Generation Wealth von Trudy Wilner Stack

help this is my favorite book! i'm editing this just to emphatically recommend it to everyone but esp. rachel & lisa. "I read the federalist papers. If I want to work 100 hours a week and destroy my relationships that's my perogative." This book was good for my mental health because it answered a few nagging questions of mine, "What's wrong with everyone?" "How come they seem to be having so much more fun than me?" "Why is everything easier for so-and-so?" You'll have to read this book to find out the answer, spoiler, it's money.

"I'd rather be dumb then be a slut, but I would rather be a slut than fat or ugly"… (mehr)

Lauren Greenfield: Generation Wealth von Lauren Greenfield

I lugged a copy of this home from the library after reading a review in Current Affairs magazine. I planned to just glance through the book briefly, but ended up totally hooked. It’s alternately depressing and infuriating, but thoroughly fascinating.

Thin von Lauren Greenfield

I don't agree with Renfrew's treatment. Wth would you force someone with an eating disorder to eat junk food? These girls and women need to learn proper ways of eating. And I understand why they don't allow exercise, but because they aren't allowed they get the fat belly and that isn't
Healthy. Eveything in moderation and it isn't being taught at renfrew. The stories of the girls are similar in many ways. I hope they all succeed in bettering their lives.

Thin von Lauren Greenfield

The most triggering book I have ever read. I was up intil 4 in the morning last night reading and re-reading this book, flipping through the pages looking at the pictures, and planning how I was going to be just like these girls. Sick, isn't it?
I was frightened a bit by some of the older women. They seemed so pathetic. That could be my future, I guess, but I was less afraid of such a grim future than I was inspired by these beautiful, thin girls.
I really want to see the film now. If the book was so triggering, I can hardly imagine what the film must be like. I'm going to order it on amazon today.
