thin as sin

if you follow fashion news at all you should have heard about madrid's ban on models wit bmi of less than 18. while i definitely agree that there should be a ban on too skinny models, i think 18 is too high. i got measured in high school and was pegged at below 18 (i forget the actual number, either 14.3, 16.3, or 17.3). however, i've never had an eating disorder; i'm just naturally thin. i remember losing my period a few times cause i didn't have enough body fat, and that's really not good. but again, i never forced myself to not eat, and i never made myself throw up, or excersize too much. i've always eaten wat i wanted, never caring about calories intake. of course, i'm just me, and i don't influence anyone like these models (or celebrities) do. so yeah, i think we should do something. 'healthy' is considered to be 18.5 to 25, but seriously, some people are just naturally skinny. i think anything significantly under 18.5 is bad. banning models wit bmis under 16 perhaps?
