"I've got two daughters who will have to make their way in this skinny-obsessed world, and it worries me, because I don't want them to be empty-headed, self-obsessed, emaciated clones; I'd rather they were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny â€“ a thousand things, before 'thin'.

Let my girls be Hermiones, rather than Pansy Parkinsons. Let them never be Stupid Girls."

-- J. K. Rowling
