Men also struggle with body image issues

The conversation around this theme is not very popular. And this problem is as big when it comes to men.

Men were raised to be strong and not show any weekness by the standards that society have been putting out there for centuries.

But everyday men in their heads struggle with the way their body look. Because we are bombarded with this stereotypes that society created.

Many man spend hours in the gym not for the health or fun but to achieve a body image that is promoted as being "the ideal men body".

Another big part on this whole situation and the fact that not a lot of people talk about. It is because the fitness and fashion industry does a lot of money of this men that are trying to achieve that image.

There is nothing wrong with getting a fit body but remember that if You do it because society tells You that it is the only way to go, maybe you are not doing it for the best reasons.

Also promoting this as the only option will create fake expectations for boys that are growing up. Will make them feel week and ugly. Because as kids and simple human beings no one is born with a super hyper fit body.

Today find a male friend of Yours and try to talk with him about body image. First of all You will see that he is going to start talking about women straight away. So it is your responsability to remember him and show him that men have the same problems and it is okay to talk about it.
