Ideals of male attractiveness have changed considerably. The ideal male body at present is characterized by low body fat and pronounced muscles. Similar to what has been found for women, these normative societal conceptions should influence the pathology of men with eating disorders. In the present study, men with and without eating disorders are compared regarding body satisfaction and body perception. Both questionnaire data and a computer assisted approach are applied. Men with bulimia nervosa wish to have a body with less fat whereas men with anorexia do not wish for a bigger body although they are seriously underweight. Men in all groups wish to have more muscles. Men with and without an eating disorder do not differ in this respect. The wish for less body fat and more muscles is associated with body dissatisfaction in men. Treatment of men with eating disorders should focus on men's body images similar to how it is conceptualized in treatments for women with eating disorders. Different from women, a body image focused approach for men should emphasize the meaning of muscularity.
男性吸引力的理想标准已经发生了很大变化。目前理想的男性身体特征是低体脂和明显的肌肉。与女性的情况类似，这些社会规范观念应该会影响患有饮食失调症男性的病理情况。在本研究中，对患有和未患有饮食失调症的男性在身体满意度和身体认知方面进行了比较。同时应用了问卷数据和计算机辅助方法。神经性贪食症男性希望拥有体脂更少的身体，而厌食症男性虽然严重体重不足，但并不希望身体更大。所有组的男性都希望拥有更多肌肉。患有和未患有饮食失调症的男性在这方面没有差异。希望减少体脂和增加肌肉与男性的身体不满有关。对患有饮食失调症男性的治疗应关注男性的身体形象，类似于对患有饮食失调症女性的治疗中所概念化的那样。与女性不同，针对男性的以身体形象为重点的方法应强调肌肉发达的意义。
