I obsessively log what I eat - so many men struggle with body image 🔵 The idea that a man needed to be muscly to be accepted by girls was branded into me as a teenager ✍️ russell_kane
And men are getting worse: male body image is in crisis. We are in an emergency of masculine identity. It’s killing men, daily – through both suicide and health outcomes.
There’s no denying that a man who takes care of himself – exercises, works on his looks and stays “toned” is attractive to women. But go and ask 100 women if they want a massive 16-stone man with eight per cent body fat who lives in the gym with needle holes in his thighs. To quote my cousin Lorna: “You don’t want a geezer who looks like he’s gonna shit himself if he turns his head and neck too quickly.
I love feminism. I have a daughter. Could you imagine going in a time machine and saying to Germaine Greer: “Rather than women being liberated to grow big hairy bushes and have wobbly tummies, instead, men have become equally messed up and are now shaving their balls and suffering from eating disorders.”
