I would, perhaps at the risk of stereotype (in which case I apologize...I don't mean any offense toward anyone), figure that the focus on the female body is a societal response to the epidemiology of eating disorders. Statistically speaking, 80% of instances of bulimia occur in women. I remember in health class as early as middle school as having a definite "spin" towards females in regards to eating disorders. It's a bandaid approach to a complex problem, but...it's what I've noticed.

Speaking to you, what is it you dislike about the female body? Can you bounce a few ideas as to maybe why you feel this way? I know you mentioned weight (which I would tell you truthfully, don't get yourself down on that buddy. ), but it sounds like your distaste extends far deeper than that. I'd love to help, but more info would be beneficial in that.

Hugs,
Harley
