mostly because of the media influence. Nowadays magazines , television and even the newspaper have models pictures who are very skinny and showing of their body and that is what teenagers think that having 'that body' is sexy and beautiful. And that everyone would accept them in the society! and pretty much the media has changed their mentality.
