|a Eating disorders in men are rare. Men are more likely to present with body dysmorphic disorders, including muscle dysmorphia (i.e., dissatisfaction with body musculature). This study examined cross-cultural differences in the presentation of muscle dysmorphia in men from three ethnic backgrounds: African American, Hispanic, and White non-Hispanic. A total of 126 male participants, ages 18 years old or older, responded to six different standardized questionnaires online. The concepts of machismo, acculturation, and the Western ideal male figure were used to explain the hyper-muscularity drive in men, leading to body dysmorphic disorders. Muscle dysmorphia scores were highest for White non-Hispanics and lowest for African Americans. Muscle dysmorphia was correlated with low self-esteem for all groups. |
