What are you talking about? Are you saying that Type 1 causes eating disorders? What does that have to do with what I was saying?
They're on a crusade against insulin pumps because their friend's disordered eating habits were triggered by weight gain from an insuline pump. This ignores the fact that people without insuline pumps also develop eating disorders, diabulimia has been a thing for decades.
Huh. That's an interesting position. Thanks for the explanation.
No.
The topic is about Barbie.
If they're going to continue trying to be ~~relevent to combat declining sales~~ "inclusive", they can't be making unrealistic dolls, especially when their whole mantra is a source of women's weight issues in society.
And this ain't their first rodeo of making insulting versions of people in an effort to market themselves as inclusive. There are so, so, so many Barbies that show a company has no idea what they're doing but will sell anything out to flog a buck.
In the context of what I was saying, everything. If you were just sprinkling random facts to random comments, then nothing. Because what you said had nothing to do with what I said. Maybe you were just responding to the wrong comment all along, haven't realised yet, and have gotten confused.
