Update: Pro-ana and pro-mia bracelets

A few months ago, I blogged about the bracelets that pro-ana and pro-mia followers sometimes wear. However, it would seem that either 1) I was misinformed or 2) the bracelet colors have changed.
Thanks to a few very honest visitors who educated me, I’m here to tell you that the “proper” hues for the bracelets are:
Red – pro-ana
Purple (not blue) – pro-mia
Black & Blue – self-mutilation (such as cutting)
Of course, I’m not advocating the wearing of such jewelry. But I think awareness of the silent signals that pro-anas and pro-mias use to identify each other could be useful to parents.
