Under the
Terms of Use, it states that you cannot use Xanga to "upload, post, email or otherwise transmit any Content that encourages or promotes physical harm against any group or individual. This includes Content that encourages or promotes self-harm;".
Posting "thinspo" images in order to encourage extreme dieting and/or starvation, tips and advice on how to starve yourself most "efficiently", users that post "pro ana/mia" content, users that attempt to glamorize being dangerously thin, and the blogrings dedicated to these things all qualify as content that ENCOURAGES OR PROMOTES SELF-HARM.
Please alert the Xanga team to this detrimental problem and report users that advocate and distribute such content around the site. Let Xanga know that this is unacceptable.
Here is a list of just a Few of the blogrings mentioned. Most of the members either already have eating disorders, are likely to develop eating disorders, OR just have extremely skewed, narrow-minded and unrealistic ideals of "beauty". Instead of seeking treatment for their disorders, these users form or join blogrings, exchange and post their so-called advice on fasting/starving/extreme dieting, collect and share multitudes of thinspo pictures, and generally praise and support each other on morbid eating habits, no matter how dangerously unhealthy they are.

Examples of thinspo:




Notice how badly the shoulder bones and ribs are poking out in the back. This is what "thinspo maniacs" consider attractive. Tiny weaklings, frailty, and skeleton-like girls. The support of this unhealthy obsession should be banned.
