Megan Fox and Self-Injury

While I too, think that straight men can sadly be intimidated by women who love their vagina, this was upsetting. Another confession Fox divulged in her Rolling Stones interview was that she used to cut herself:

“Yeah…But I don’t want to elaborate. I would never call myself a cutter. Girls go through different phases when they’re growing up, when they’re miserable and do different things, whether it’s an eating disorder or they dabble in cutting.“(Emphasis mine)

No biggie, just something girls “dabble in” as they grow up. Huh? While I respect her openness about her problem, normalizing pretty serious issues as just somethin’ us gals do isn’t sending her young emulating fans a good message here.
(Not to mention cutting seems to be more common in general among young actresses lately – and of course the media is eating it up. Heinous.)
