Rowling slams thin-obsessed culture

WRITER JK Rowling has revealed she is worried about her daughters growing up to be “empty-headed, self-obsessed, emaciated clones”.

Writing on her website, the Harry Potter author said one-year-old Mackenzie, and Jessica, 12, will “have to make their way in this skinny-obsessed world”.

“I’d rather they were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny, a thousand things, before ‘thin’,” she wrote.
