Why are eating disorders more common in women than men?

English

Answer: Researchers find that women are more likely than men to experience brain activity relating to negative body perception. When it comes to negative perceptions of physical appearance, social pressures are believed to play a key role. Since women tend to be more susceptible to such pressures, this may explain in part why eating disorders affect women more than men.

answer:

women are more concerned with body image than men. one of these reason is because of the social pressures that society has placed on woman for years and years. women have been told that the skinnier that you are, the prettier you will be which is never the case. some of the other reasons that have caused women to be more 'at risk' of a eating disorder is the objectification of women and early se-xualizat-ion that has been around for a really really long time, one of the things that have been told and heard at least once in our lifetimes is that women are objects and should be treated that way ( something that i personally disagree with ) and how they are only here to satisfy the needs of men which goes back to what i was saying about how society/social media thinks that 'skinner the prettier.

the percentage in eating disorders is (3.8%) in females and (1.5%) in males. the percentage for females is over half of what the percentage in males is.

this is a part of a very controversial topic(s) for society but

i do hope this helps you and if you have any questions then feel free to ask them!! :)

I didn’t read it myself but I’d search ‘Goose Girl Analysis’ on Google and and find something from an academic website like Cliffnotes or Shmoop. If you can’t find anything then you’ll have to look for a Prezi or Google Slide, or something like that. They won’t be as professional because they’re likely by students, but it’s better than nothing, and hopefully it helps get you started. x
