How can you possibly know the model's mental state from this?

Her body is slim, undoubtedly, but no one who starves themselves could achieve such tone and definition in their body.

Whilst I agree it wont be to everyone's taste, her physique is most unlikely to be affected by such a debilitating psychological disease as Anorexia.

To assume something is not the same as to give a fact! Maybe she is affected by a eating disorder, maybe not!

"her physique is most unlikely to be affected by such a debilitating psychological disease as Anorexia."

What you are stating here is nothing but a paradox!
Eating disorders are a form of a psychological disease, but surly they affect the physiology of a human body!

That stated, i wish the model all well - even if she suffers or not!

Eating disorders originate in a defunct cognitive process - however thin an anorexic gets they still see that they are fat. The disease itself is purely psychological, the symptoms are the only physical attribute. You are making assumptions based on slim visage.

"Maybe she is affected by a eating disorder, maybe not!" - exactly, you have no such proof to substantiate this serious accusation. May I suggest you cease and desist with labeling people as such.
It's akin to seeing an image of a girl looking somewhat melancholy and claiming that she is suicidal.

Exaggeration is an dangerous game.

LOL! I'm not accusing anyone on anything.

To share one's impression of something is not the same as to accuse or label the thing!

If you stated "that person is quite artistic" - that will be your impression of the person.

Your impression will not be a fact, but an impression! Maybe "that person" is not really so artistic after all?

Indeed exaggeration can be a dangerous game.
That said, I don't feel I'm exaggerating!
