Concept information
Preferred term
body image in boys and young men
Definition
- Body image problems and disorders traditionally have been associated with girls and women, and the existing literature has focused on adolescent and young girls. This may be due to the fact that most males do not admit or acknowledge that they have problems or issues with their personal body images.
