This makes so much sense. I hadn't thought about how most female athletic stars are also models or are pursuing success in some other area as well. hmmmm

Just finished watching and thought it was pretty compelling. Not really hearing something I didn't already know. Still, I thought it was interesting that Dr. Hinshaw found overwhelming evidence of this phenomenon which prompted him to continue with his investigation into this emerging crisis amongst girls. It's absolutely heartbreaking that young ladies feel societal pressures at such an early age and nothing is being done about it. Thanks for studying the problem and attempting to bring it to light for parents, educators and society to consider.
