Minor correction, because there is so much misinformation: ebola is believed to have started in west Africa due to handling of infected bush meat/wild animals. It was primarily spread through communities by person to person contact and through funereal practices.

Yes, you're right - it does need to stop. I'm really disappointed in a lot of the comments on this article. My previous comment wasn't meant to condone anything. I think that body image issues are at an all-time high now. I think corporations are using 'too much' sex to sell their crappy products and it is having…

And seriously, making fun of a women's wrinkles and implying age means your not attractive anymore on a feminist sight? This article and many of the comments are just catty gossip. I could go on to TMZ.com and read something with more substance.

Thank you...I'm British and I was blessed with pretty good gnashers, thank heavens, but these whilst a little bit happy they're not mine, don't look that bad to me! Sorry America, I know the right thing to do is spend tens of thousands of dollars and weeks of agony to have perfect Ultraviolet teeth, but look what…

Is this any worse than the recent article that implied that Brazil was administering virginity tests to its female teachers? (An obviously false, racist and imperialist news story that Jezebel not only promoted, but embellished: http://jezebel.com/women-must-sub…) Honestly, the writers at Jezebel appear to be totally…

You do realize this woman has been coached by the Daily Mail to say the most ridiculous things possible so everyone can go into a frenzy hate-reading and posting comments about how ugly and delusional she is? They've been trotting these women out like clockwork ever since Samantha Brick made them $$$. It's entirely…

And left out the part where she said that the right person will like you regardless of whether you lose weight, and that the original person should be happy with who she is. God, what a BITCH, right?

I am sorry that people treated you like that, i am at the moment trying to beat anorexia and self harm and i am trying to love the way i look but then i read comments on the internet and it just makes it a bit harder. I honestly thought this would be a safe space but i guess not.

If it makes you feel any better, I always thought British girls have great hair. I think it's because you all have so much moisture. All that rain.

Try not to let it get to you. Sadly, Americans and British people don't treat each other terribly well in film, on the internet, etc. I lived in England for a while and I could honestly say that not a day went by that someone didn't tell me how I wasn't like all the 'other' Americans- who are all fat and stupid. It…

Who are you to decide how she should feel about her own attractiveness? Why don't you post a photo of yourself so we can all decide how attractive you are?

She has her work cut out for her, sadly. I know there's supposed to be some new writers. WHERE THEY AT. I am so sick of the catty, bitchiness that is now the norm.

Mark, every time I have been on this website lately and gotten upset with an article, I scroll up only to see your name above. Smh

Yeah. Mark gets a pass and I do NOT get why.

I am still hoping Emma Carmichael turns the ship around. When Cosmopolitan's doing more to advance feminism, it's time to rethink your priorities.

Unfortunately the Daily Mail has a terrible habit of getting women in their articles to say they actually believe they're good looking (oh no - how dare they!) then invite commenters to verbally tear down the women. Samantha Brick was a more famous example although this woman is less extreme. They're usually paid a…

Yeah we are. Look how frigging easy it was, on a "feminist" website no less!

I was just thinking this! Good for her that she feels confident and beautiful. It's not like she's putting anyone else down in the process. And everyone in the comments trying to put her in her place and let her know how not that beautiful she is, gross.

I was waiting for the British bashing comments, well done.
