People are so worried about women and body dysmorphia, but we should remember that men need help with dysmorphia too.

I didn’t know who this guy was before he died, but I read an article about things he was doing and saying. He was not okay. It seems like he was suffering from some kind of paranoia as much as dysmorphia.

    It's not a competition. But looking at the numbers it's justified to focus a little more on women for the time being.

    But also focusing on it for women makes it a “women’s problem” and it makes it harder for men to get help.

    Look at sexual assault and rape. It happens to men too. Maybe less frequently but more often than anyone truly knows because it’s under reported.
