Warning... link it slightly homoerotic.

The pressure to look like a male model is driving more men to develop dangerous eating disorders, experts warned today.

GPs have been warned to be on the lookout for the potentially fatal conditions, which include anorexia and bulimia, after a rise in the number of those affected.

Men may be reluctant to admit they have a problem as the issue has until now been seen as something affecting mainly teenage girls.

Medical experts blame the surge on an obsession with looking good by having bulging biceps and a six-pack stomach.

Umm... *Checks link again to make sure it's not The Onion* :hmm:

NHS figures have shown a 66 per cent increase in hospital admissions in England for male eating disorders over the last decade.

Ohhhh... ENGLAND. Ok. Now it makes sense. :biggrin:

Not really surprising, it's been on the rise in males for some time. I'd guess it's just for the same reasons as teenage girls: to maintain weight, to look good, or to fit in.

The guy in the second pic looks like he has a c-section scar. I guess if men want to look like female strippers, that's the way to go.
