Research shows that gay and bisexual men experience significantly higher rates of body dissatisfaction and disordered eating than their heterosexual peers, and that disparity doesn’t happen by accident. In this video, we’re unpacking why gay body standards can feel so intense, how labels like twink, bear, and otter shape identity, and the cultural history that reinforces the pressure to have the “perfect” body.
By understanding where these pressures come from and how they shape the way we see ourselves, we can start to loosen their grip and move toward a more compassionate, confident relationship with our bodies.
