Anorexia in gay men. Is it a form of self-abuse?

[rareboy]

If it's a parody, it's very bad one - it misses Jayden's point entirely. He is talking about parents who allow this happening to their kids. You talk about grown-ups who make their own decision.

Apart from that - anorexia is a disease. No matter your sexuality or gender.

My thoughts exactly.

While Jayqueer, as an adult, now has the responsibility for bringing his own overweight condition under control by healthy eating and exercise....and avoiding Chik-fil-A, parents who keep packing their children with low nutrition, high calorie foods and sugary drinks deserve some criticism.

But having said that, anorexia is a serious disease and requires the assistance of therapists as well as medical doctors to correct.

And perhaps, Jayqueer and other overweight guys with poor self-image might want to give some thought to seeking nutritional and psychiatric counselling as well as a personal trainer to help them if they wish to lose weight.
