Research

Sometimes people can be completely insensitive. But not for reasons that one would think while reading this blog.
While looking for the history of body size I came across this page: http://blisstree.com/feel/a-short-history-of-the-ideal-female-body/

Not real informative. But offensive nonetheless. At the bottom of the page, the author uses a photo of a holocaust victim to compare against a photo of a modern-day model.

While I don't condone making fun of fat people, I don't agree with "skinny girl hate" and I DEFINATELY do not agree with people making this kind of comparison. Not that the image is hateful to the model, but it is completely disgusting to belittle a victim of such a horrendous crime, all in the name of a blog page.

You also get to see some pretty ignorant commentary from the readers as well.
