France Bans Skinny Models

According to Reuters, France's lower house of parliament on Friday passed a measure, banning excessively thin fashion models and exposing modeling agencies and the fashion houses that hire them to possible fines and even jail.

The measure is part of a wider crack-down on anorexia backed by President Francois Hollande's government. Lawmakers during the night approved a separate measure making it illegal to condone anorexia, a move targeting Internet sites that encourage dangerous weight loss.



I think this is a step in the direction... What do you think guys?
