Boys have many of the same body images as women do; it's just not discussed. While women have the unrealistic Barbie dolls to contend with, boys have GI Joe, Superman, Batman, etc with the ridiculous chest-waist ratios, abs, etc. And as boys develop into men, they have some definition of what a man is looming over them from military to athletes to lumberjack/manly man. And the fitness magazines get men, too, but sometimes, it hits them in all directions. Just a few months ago, Men's Health had some guy on the cover - ripped body, pecs, abs, etc...but...he was also an army medic turned Army Ranger turned ER doctor in real life who also does charity work. WTF!

I'm a pre-everything trans guy and I really relate. It's just so easy to get stuck on the things you don't like, to let them get you down and beat you down. I'd love to try the drawing thing, but at the same time, drawing myself makes me feel like I'm lying to myself, like I'm pretending I'm more masculine or attractive than I really am. So I'm either "lying" or just really, really uncomfortable... I'm trying to work on it, though. I think when I finally work up the courage to come out, I can start being myself, and therefore seeing me as I REALLY am, instead of through the distortion of my imagination. To any of my fellow trans brothers and sisters (and everything in between), just remember to focus on the good and keep moving forwards. We can make it, together.

Idea for BuzzFeed (if it hasn't been made already): Make a video about how ideal body standards for BOTH male and female doesn't mean they're attractive for everyone. Everyone has their own different quirks about what make another person attractive and that should be the main priority of the message. One person might like Muscular bodies or Skinny bodies but another person could like bigger bodies and a more curvy type of shape.

Instead of focusing on physical "flaws" we hate about ourselves, we should focus on things we like about ourselves, both physical and especially inner traits. Also, we don't have to see our physical flaws with such a negative connotation. We can see them as perfect imperfections instead. For example, I used to loathe my almond-shaped monolided eyes. I even went through extreme measures of buying eyelid tape and desiring to get double eyelid surgery when I turned 18. It just seemed like to me that society's epitome of beauty was large, doll-like blue eyes like Barbie's as it was advertised everywhere. Now that I've grown away from that self-loathing, I've learned to love how my eyes look because they're a part of me and I no longer see them as a flaw.

On the days where I hate myself and the body I'm stuck in the most. thank you, this really helped me.

Ooh this one got me good. Everything that he described, even to the exaggeration of the sketches and drawings, is exactly how I see myself; my chest is one of the touchiest subjects, after having been bullied in middle school. It is so great to see some light shed on this issue--how men can also suffer from body image issues and dysmorphia. I am still learning to love myself. It's a slow process, but it's better and better with each passing year, and that's all I can really hope for. It's really too bad that I can barely draw even a stick figure, or else I would definitely give that coping mechanism a try!

Liradu2 - Agree completely. It's extremely hard to change this way of thinking that you've been doing your entire life. I've been suffering for twenty years. That's a long time. And I'm STILL working on it! But I am no where near where I was ten years ago (or even five or two years ago). I've come across an interesting analogy that might help this make more sense. Think of your thoughts about yourself and your body as a well-travelled beaten path. It's so easy for your thoughts to go down that path, but the minute you want them to blaze a new trail (the trail of postive thinking and self-compassion), it's so much work to walk over the tall grass. It's tempting to just leap back to the beaten path, as you have always done. The more practice you have of thinking the new way - going down that unbeaten path - the easier it will become. Soon you will make this new path more-travelled and it won't be so hard to go down it. In turn, the old path of negative-thinking and self-loathing will soon grow over and it will feel less easy to go that way. It is a lot of work and I have days where I just want to curl up and do nothing but hate myself. But with enough practice, I know I will eventually change my thoughts

I have issues with body image too, I have a lot of little odd things about me. When I was born, the doctor noticed one of my left ribs pokes out a bit. It's not a health concern, but it sure looks like I'm constantly sucking in my stomach to look skinnier and I hate it. I have violin hips. Instead of being smooth, there's a dip inbetween my hip and my leg. I have a fairly large gap inbetween my lower canine and the tooth beside it. It was caused from my baby tooth being very large and my adult tooth being normal sized. Because of this, I'm not too fond of smiling in pictures. But I'm learning to embrace my quirks, and you should too. Love what makes you unique.

But no one is ever there to say "It's ok." there just there to go over to a women or girl and say you look Beautiful. And girls are beautiful it's just men want comments, and we all want to feel good about our bodies.
