But men can also suffer from bulimia, binge eating and, to a lesser extent, anorexia, according to researchers.

 

I'm intrigued that my own eating disorder, "eats like a goat" isn't listed here.

You did notice the Coors Light in the background of the pic??

No, as long as it is washed down with a quart of milk. At least, that what this "Cookie Monster" does.

While there is a stereotype that eating disorders are more prevalent among gay men, Olivardia believes that perception is because gay men are more likely to seek treatment.

No, it's because gay men are more likely to be obsessed with their personal appearance. Duh.

Total crock!
Eating disorders in men are so rare, the base is so small any increase results in a large percentage increase.
This is the same as the heterosexual aids scare 20 years ago.

This is not a big fraudulent joke to me. There is a male in my family who has an eating disorder. It's ruining his whole life. BTW he's not gay.

"Hello. My name is WBill and I have an eating disorder."

At a restaurant, I eat dis order. I eat dat order. And pretty soon, I've eaten too much. /sarcasm

Sheesh. Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

[NaughtiusMaximus]

Too many illiterates too!

When I first saw the title I thought it was about queers in San Francisco.

Wait a minute..."cookie binges"...what the heck?

My mother in law puts out...and I mean that in a good way....she puts out the best choc chip cookies you ever ate...and when they are fresh out of the oven....they are unbeatable...

So if binging on fresh cookies is wrong....I dont wanna be right....
