so, i've heard a lot about girls who are self- concious and have an eating disorder, but i've never met a guy who had an eating disorder. (in fact, i dont even know any guys who pay attention to their weight) so are there any males on cb/do any guys that you know have eating disorders?

males do suffer from EDs but the largely majority of males don't suffer from EDs that make them drastically skinny. similiar to how females are pressured to be skinny skinny, males are pressured to have giant muscles/toned. while anoxeria and bulimia is still the most significant EDs, males are more suspectible to exercise bulimia where they exercise far beyond their caloric intake.
=/ it's sad to know that just a few hundred years back, a little meat on your bones was viewed as attractive on women and a symbol of success for men. and now, people are destroying their lives to be skinny. |
