Feed the supermodel game

After BJ Fogg's presentation of fiery concerns, I mentioned this wonderful online game that has a slightly different agenda than the U.S. Army's recruitment video game. And is probably aimed at a different demographic. But I leave it to you to decide how the technology affects YOU:

BTW I have already received one inquiry (from a male) about this fiery game with a concern, "Are they trying to say that nutritional intake is the only factor in weight gain or loss? What about exercise and genetics?"

To which I respond:

1) There's a joke that applies to this:
Q: How many feminists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: (sternly) That's _not_ funny.

2) Maybe we could see if this is a gender-based response - (d'ya think?!!) I am guessing most women who would play this game would immediately identify it as FUN. Albeit rare, women-friendly, ironic, and "critical of the dominant culture and hegemony" type fun... yada, yada, yada...

3) The point of the site is not about Appropriate Weight Loss and Effective Methods. Instead, it's about resisting unhealthy body image ideals.
