That line is blurry though.
Anorexics aren't happy with their body. If they go to a site where they find acceptance and understanding, thats good?
And on the other hand, it used to be the case that Models were stick thin. If the fat acceptance crowd succeeds, and fat becomes the standard of beauty and people try and emulate that, thats bad.
The difference is that Anorexics don't accept themselves, and try to achieve an unhealthy weight. Obese people are trying to gain acceptance for the unhealthy weight they are.
The danger is that acceptance is an overloaded term. It isn't just accepting one individual who is already fat. Its shifting culture to the point where it becomes a standard for beauty, which is where people start emulating it.
