Understanding Body Image
by trueconfidant123

September 22nd
...See more Body image refers to how individuals perceive their bodies and the feelings associated with this perception. Positive body image is linked to body satisfaction, while negative body image reflects dissatisfaction. Key Aspects of Body Image Beliefs: What a person thinks about their appearance. Feelings: How they feel about their height, weight, and shape. Experience: How they sense and interact with their body. What is Positive Body Image? Positive body image occurs when someone feels comfortable and confident in their body, appreciating its appearance. It encompasses a broad concept of beauty and emphasizes self-care, free from societal pressures. Research indicates that positive body image is associated with better mental and physical health, higher self-esteem, and reduced rates of depression and unhealthy dieting. Promoting body positivity should be integral to health education. What is Negative Body Image? Negative body image involves dissatisfaction with one’s appearance, often leading to harmful behaviors like obsessive monitoring, extreme dieting, and even unnecessary cosmetic procedures. It can be linked to mental health issues, including depression and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), where individuals obsess over perceived flaws. Origins of Negative Body Image Negative body image is influenced by various external factors, including cultural ideals, media representations, family dynamics, and peer pressure. Discrimination based on race, size, gender, and personal experiences like illness or accidents can also contribute to feelings of inadequacy. These influences can significantly affect mental and physical well-being. Tips for Cultivating Positive Body Image * Surround yourself with body-positive individuals. * Practice positive self-talk, focusing on strengths rather than perceived flaws. * Wear comfortable clothing that makes you feel good. * Recognize that beauty transcends appearance. * Appreciate your body for its abilities, like dancing or creating. * Critically assess media messages that promote unrealistic standards. * List ten non-appearance-related qualities you value about yourself. * View yourself as a whole person, beyond individual body parts. * Treat your body kindly with self-care activities. * Engage in hobbies or volunteer work that foster a sense of fulfillment. Treatment for Negative Body Image When negative body image impacts daily life, professional help may be necessary. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is effective for identifying and challenging harmful thoughts. In more severe cases, such as BDD or eating disorders, medication may be recommended under professional guidance. Prompts for the Community * Write down three things you love about your body. * Share a media message that impacted how you feel about yourself and how you overcame it. * Can you share a moment when you felt good about your body? Feel free to answer all or any questions you would like to. We would love to hear your thoughts and experiences in the comments below. Your voice can help break the silence and support others facing similar challenges. For further support, consider consulting a healthcare provider if you're concerned about body image or how they affect your well-being, and explore support groups and resources. ------------------------- Resources and Further Reading Medical News Today- Source [https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/249190#treatment] Centre for Change- Source [https://centerforchange.com/battling-bodies-understanding-overcoming-negative-body-images/?__cf_chl_tk=EPiqYZ.nxioGsh70K3qTuHi7vhV8TBJCE5RguurqJ48-1726926153-0.0.1.1-4457]
Nutrition and Eating Disorders Among Women: The Impact of Societal Beauty Standards and Diet Culture
by Mya000
Last post
September 19th
...See more Trigger Warning: This post discusses eating disorders, body image, diet culture, and mental health. ------------------------- Eating disorders, such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and binge-eating disorder, once considered primarily a problem among young women in Western countries, are now increasingly observed worldwide, including in developing nations like India. Recent research highlights that these disorders have multifactorial origins, influenced by genetics, neurobiology, and cultural factors. Despite advancements in understanding and treating eating disorders, they remain complex to address, particularly due to cultural variations in how these disorders present and the limitations of established therapies. Societal Beauty Standards, Diet Culture, and Social Media The pressure to conform to societal beauty standards that idolize thinness plays a significant role in the development of eating disorders. Diet culture, reinforced by media and advertising, often normalizes extreme dieting, food restriction, and an unhealthy obsession with appearance, fostering body dissatisfaction among women. Social media further amplifies these issues, with studies showing that young women exposed to dietitians, influencers, and celebrities promoting restrictive diets and “ideal” body types are at a higher risk of developing eating concerns.  The Need for a Holistic Approach Addressing eating disorders requires a comprehensive approach that considers the physical, psychological, and social aspects of health. Nutritional rehabilitation, psychotherapy, and in some cases, pharmacotherapy are essential treatment modalities. However, there is also a need for broader public health interventions, including awareness campaigns and education on healthy eating habits to counter misinformation and promote body positivity. Promoting intuitive eating and holistic health approaches that prioritize well-being over appearance can be transformative. Alongside this, body positivity movements challenge societal norms that equate thinness with health and beauty, encouraging women to embrace and appreciate their bodies in all shapes and sizes. Moving Forward To effectively tackle the challenges posed by societal beauty standards and diet culture, collaborative efforts from healthcare providers, educators, communities, and policymakers are essential. Raising awareness about the harmful impacts of these cultural norms and fostering a supportive environment for women to discuss their struggles without stigma is crucial. The ultimate goal is to shift the narrative from appearance to holistic health and well-being. ------------------------- Questions for the Community: * Have you or someone you know experienced the impact of diet culture or societal beauty standards on your relationship with food or body image? What helped or hindered recovery? * What steps do you think communities can take to promote body positivity and healthy relationships with food? * How can social media be leveraged to provide positive messages and combat misinformation about nutrition and health? We’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences in the comments below—your voice can help break the silence and support others facing similar challenges 💙 ------------------------- This post is informed by research from the Indian Journal of Psychiatry and the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. ------------------------- Eating disorders, body positivity, diet culture, social media influence, women's health, holistic health
Hirsutism And Unwanted Body Hair In Women
by trueconfidant123
Last post
September 5th
...See more Defining Hirsutism Hirsutism, as defined in medical literature, refers to the presence of excess coarse hair in females, typically in areas more commonly associated with male hair growth, such as the face, chest, abdomen, and back. However, some physicians also consider hirsutism to include any hair growth that is unwanted or embarrassing to women. This broader perspective acknowledges that, in contemporary Western culture, even small amounts of female hair can be seen as undesirable, where hairlessness is often considered the norm for women. Shunning Stereotypes or No? The removal of facial hair is just as paradoxical – the pressure to do it is recognized by many women as a stupid social norm and yet they strictly follow it. Because these little whiskers represent the most basic rules of the patriarchy – to ignore them is to jeopardize your reputation, even your dignity. Causes of Excess Body or Facial Hair Women can develop excessive body or facial hair due to higher-than-normal levels of androgen hormones. These hormones include testosterone and androstenedione. All individuals produce androgens, but these levels typically remain low in individuals assigned female at birth. However, if a women’s skin suddenly becomes sensitive to androgens, or her body begins to produce these hormones in excess, she can develop hirsutism.  There are a few conditions that can cause this hormone imbalance. Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one common cause of hirsutism. It accounts for 85 percent of cases. In addition to hirsutism, other symptoms of PCOS can include: * irregular menstrual cycle * weight gain or difficulty losing weight * acne * thinning hair * skin tags * fertility difficulties Embracing Natural Hair: Redefining Beauty Standards In recent years, there has been a growing movement towards body positivity, encouraging women to embrace their natural bodies, including body and facial hair. This shift challenges traditional beauty standards and promotes the idea that women should feel confident and comfortable, regardless of societal expectations. Embracing natural hair is becoming more accepted, and many women are choosing to redefine beauty on their own terms. Discussing unwanted hair due to societal pressure can be challenging, but it’s important to remember that embracing your own choices and feeling confident in your skin is what truly matters. ------------------------- Prompts for the Community * What has been your experience with facial or body hair? How has it impacted your self-image? * Have you ever felt pressured to remove hair due to societal expectations? How did you handle it? * What are your thoughts on breaking stereotypes around body hair for women? Feel free to answer all or any questions you would like to. We would love to hear your thoughts and experiences in the comments below. Your voice can help break the silence and support others facing similar challenges. For further support, consider consulting a healthcare provider if you're concerned about hirsutism or PCOS, and explore support groups and resources dedicated to helping women manage these conditions. ------------------------- Sources: Science Direct [https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0022399906000420] Healthline [https://www.healthline.com/health/excessive-or-unwanted-hair-in-women#outlook] The Guardian [https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2017/nov/30/female-facial-hair-if-so-many-women-have-it-why-are-we-so-deeply-ashamed]

Body Dissatisfaction Can Lead to Eating Disorders at Any Age
by fruityPond7887
Last post
January 18th
...See more Eating disorders are stereotypically associated with adolescents and young adults. Growing evidence, however, suggests that these conditions can occur at any time during a woman’s lifespan, including at midlife. A new study finds that body dissatisfaction is a primary cause of eating disorders, especially during perimenopause. Study results are published online today in Menopause, the journal of The North American Menopause Society (NAMS). Eating disorders are serious mental health conditions characterized by disturbances in eating behavior and body image that occur in approximately 13.1% of women across the lifespan. The prevalence of any eating disorder specifically for women aged older than 40 years is roughly 3.5%, with specific symptoms such as dissatisfaction with eating patterns being documented as high as 29.3%. Serious complications such as high mortality and morbidity are associated with eating disorders. These adverse health events are likely to be magnified when present at older ages. However, few studies on eating disorders have included participants at midlife, including premenopause, perimenopause, and postmenopause. There is some evidence that supports the idea that perimenopausal women have the highest rates of dysregulated eating behaviors (eg, weight-control behaviors such as regular counting of calories or consumption of diet foods) of any reproductive stage at midlife and are significantly different from premenopausal women with regard to body dissatisfaction and feelings of fatness. Although findings such as these remain scant; the association between eating disorders and symptoms of perimenopause (eg, negative mood, depression, and fatigue) confirm that perimenopause may be a particularly risky time for eating pathology. In this new small study, which sought to investigate the structure of eating disorder symptoms specifically during perimenopause and early postmenopause, the researchers used network analysis statistical models to compare the structure and importance of specific eating disorder symptoms across reproductive stages. Although they admit that larger studies are necessary with this underrepresented female population, the researchers believe that the study confirms that dissatisfaction with body image is a key risk factor for eating disorders across the lifespan, especially at midlife. Study results are published in the article “Network analysis of eating disorder symptoms in women in perimenopause and early postmenopause.” “This study shows that, similar to studies in young adults, dissatisfaction with body image remains a core feature of eating disorder pathology in midlife women. Specifically, fear of gaining weight and fear of losing control over eating habits are central symptoms of eating disorders in perimenopause and early postmenopause. These findings may help direct more targeted treatment strategies in women during midlife,” says Dr. Stephanie Faubion, NAMS medical director." *I wanted to share this article because this is pretty new research and there haven't been many studies done yet on it. When we think of eating disorders, we usually think of teenage girls and adolescents. It should be pretty obvious that this population isn't the only one that would struggle with an eating disorder. It makes sense that those who are in the middle of menopause would have the highest rates of disordered eating behaviors, most likely due to hormone changes and how they view themselves. This evidence just goes to show that we should be more open-minded about eating disorders and that many people may struggle with them more than we realize. What other conclusions do you think future research could reveal in terms of eating disorders?* #EatingDisorders #Perimenopause #BodyImage Please find the full article at Science Daily.

Mommy Tummy

...See more For all the moms out there, do you struggle with mommy tummy? I had my last kid 5 years ago, been through 3 cesarians. I can't seem to tighten up my lower mommy tummy and it really bothers me. I try to wear some sexy lingerie but the front is cut so dang narrow and my mommy tummy just doesn't look that great (at least to me) when it's not covered. Anyone been through this, currently dealing with it, or have suggestions to cope or fix? In all vanity I wouldn't be above getting a tummy tuck but it would have to be at the bottom of a big line of other things I'm working on myself first like general weight loss, removing tonsils, maybe some permanent hair removal, and getting regular doctor appointments. Sorry for the vanity but I want to look and feel good going into my 40s. They are closer than I'd like.

Rethinking Body Hair Norms and Expectations
by Mya000
Last post
September 13th, 2023
...See more Challenging Conventional Notions of Beauty In a world that imposes rigid beauty standards on women, the topic of body hair and hair removal has long been a contentious one. While society perpetuates the idea that hairlessness is a personal choice, a closer examination reveals that this “choice” is heavily influenced by societal pressures and media portrayals. From a young age, we are bombarded with images of hairless women in the media and subjected to negative comments about body hair. It's high time we question the disparity between expectations for women and men regarding body hair, as well as the consequences and motivations behind adhering to these norms. ------------------------- Societal Dichotomy: The Gendered Perception of Body Hair Interestingly, society has created a stark divide between the perceptions of body hair on women and men. Hair on men is generally accepted without question, often symbolizing masculinity or ruggedness. On the contrary, hair on women is met with criticism, often labelled as unsightly, dirty, and even masculine. But why the double standard? Hair is a natural part of human biology, serving the important function of protecting our skin from environmental factors. So, why is the same hair celebrated on one gender while stigmatized on another? ------------------------- Media's Role: The Reinforcement of Unrealistic Ideals The media plays a significant role in shaping our perceptions of beauty. However, these ideals rarely align with reality. Mainstream media predominantly showcases women with smooth, hairless skin, inadvertently suggesting that this is the only acceptable way for women to present themselves. This constant exposure leads to internalized beliefs about what is attractive and desirable, further pressuring women to conform to these ideals through hair removal methods. ------------------------- Embracing Natural Protection: The Purpose of Body Hair It's crucial to remember that body hair is not a defect or an unwanted attribute. In fact, it serves a vital purpose – protection. Body hair guards our skin against harmful UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and irritants. It's a natural armour that we carry. Thus, the notion of removing something that inherently safeguards us is counterintuitive. ------------------------- Hidden Dangers: The Price of Hair Removal While the beauty industry promotes various hair removal techniques, they come at a cost – both financially and physically. Waxing, shaving, and other methods can cause skin irritation, ingrown hairs, and even infections. The pain associated with these procedures can be overwhelming, and the time invested in maintaining hairless skin is often underappreciated. Moreover, the mental energy devoted to achieving societal beauty standards takes a toll on one's self-esteem and well-being. ------------------------- Costly Expectations: Qui Bono? It's essential to examine who truly benefits from the perpetuation of hairlessness as a beauty norm. The beauty industry thrives on selling products and services that promise to help women attain these standards. From expensive razors to salon appointments, the financial burden disproportionately affects women. By redefining beauty ideals to include the acceptance of natural body hair, we can liberate ourselves from this economic exploitation. ------------------------- Conclusion: Embracing Empowerment and Choice In conclusion, the conversation around body hair and hair removal is far from being solely a matter of personal choice. It's intertwined with deeply ingrained societal norms, media influences, and economic interests. I invite you all to share your thoughts and experiences on this matter. Let's have an open and respectful discussion about the societal pressures we face, the impact of those pressures on our choices, and the broader implications of these expectations. Thank you for taking the time to read this post. Your voices and experiences matter, and I look forward to engaging with you all in the comments 🫶
The Body Positive Movement: Embracing More than Just Outer Beauty
by Mya000
Last post
August 15th, 2023
...See more Hello everyone, Today, I would like to discuss a topic that has gained significant traction in recent years: the Body Positive Movement. This movement, born out of a necessity to challenge the unrealistic beauty standards imposed on women by society, has made important strides in reshaping how we view ourselves and others. However, it is essential to acknowledge its origins, limitations, and areas where it still falls short. Origins and Purpose The Body Positive Movement emerged as a response to the unattainable and unhealthy beauty ideals perpetuated by the media and fashion industry. It began to gain momentum in the 1960s as a form of feminist activism and has since evolved into a diverse movement aiming to empower individuals to love and accept their bodies, regardless of societal standards. Limitations One critical aspect that must be addressed is the way the Body Positive Movement has been co-opted by marketing and consumer culture. We have seen the movement being used to sell products, reinforcing the very beauty standards it aims to combat. This is a concerning issue that needs to be acknowledged and challenged. We should question companies that exploit this movement solely for profit and capitalize on our insecurities. The Focus on Appearance vs. Well-Being Another limitation we need to recognize is that, despite the progress made, there is still a heavy focus on physical appearance within the movement. While it is crucial to represent the beauty of all bodies, we must not forget that a body’s function is to keep us healthy and enable us to live fulfilling lives. Ultimately, the Body Positive Movement should strive to help individuals build a positive relationship with their bodies by valuing their capabilities and health. We need to challenge the notion that our worth is determined by our external appearance. Moving Forward Let’s continue to support this movement while challenging its inconsistencies, fostering a more inclusive, accepting, and genuinely positive environment. We can achieve this by encouraging discussions about mental health, self-care, overall well-being, and celebrating the incredible things our bodies allow us to do, rather than just how they look 🫶
