As I am looking for information on my topic ideas, I find myself with an overload of information on the topics of female anorexia and its correlations with the media. Finding information on the topics of food related guilt is much more difficult.
I would rather write about food related guilt just because I think it would be more of an interesting topic to explore and for other people to want to read, but I am troubled by the lack of information I am able to find. As a result, I am thinking about collaborating the two subjects and covering the topics of women feeling guilty when eating food due to the coverage of the slender "ideal woman," and the sensory overload of dieting advertisements in the media. I think I will be able to recover enough information to gain some insight on the topic, although I have not explored this route for information yet.
Some questions I am considering for my proposal include:
1. What are some first hand thoughts of women who have eating disorders and what caused them to go down such a harmful and dangerous path?
2. Does guilt related to food consumption have an impact on the presence of eating disorders?
3. Is the media at fault for food related guilt?
4. Are social upbringings at fault for food related guilt?
5. Is the new national campaign for a healthy lifestyle really just harming self-image in women as they learn to associate guilt with certain foods and lifestyles?
