The Ugly Meter

Now there is an App for i-phone that will tell you if you are ugly or not- according to "it".

Did you know that from the late 1860s until the 1970s, several American cities had ugly laws making it illegal for persons with "unsightly or disgusting" disabilities to appear in public. Some of these laws were called Unsightly Beggar Ordinances. The goal of these laws was seemingly to preserve the quality of life for the community, similar in spirit to current homeowners association regulations and by-laws.

I don't even know what to say.According to a news report on NBCDFW.com The New Face of Anorexia is Older Than 30. A Dallas doctor says he's treating more people who are older than 30 for anorexia than ever before. Watch this:

While at the same time today on the news I saw that eating disorders in young kids and teenagers have been reported to have increased 50%.

This is why I wrote Bodylogue.
