Males are guilty of creating euphamisms for themselves as well. But it’s different. Body-image and body-esteem issues aren’t anywhere near as important to us. I’d argue that they aren’t as important to women as it’s made out to be, but that’s another matter.

Simply put, being overweight isn’t as important to men as it is to women. Unless you’re gay.
