I get what she is trying to say. But people who are skinny, or suffering from an eating disorder such as anorexia may be emaciated but the fact she says they are ‘empty headed’ and ‘self obsessed’ couldn’t be further from the truth. It is usually well educated ‘perfectionist’ high achievers who succumb to eating disorders and they couldn’t hate themselves more than they already do, so absolutely no self obsession there in the way JK is implying.
I also know tons of skinny or anorexic people who are interesting, independent, kind, opinionated and original. She is being a total hypocrite by saying that size means you are those things.
Quite frankly I find many of her words offensive. She needs to get some of her assumptions in line.
