Eating disorders do not only affect women. Eating Disorders Coalition shares the impact #eatingdisorders have on men. The intense stigma that this group faces must be addressed and normalized in order for conversation on recovery to take place. #eatingdisorderawarenessweek #edaw

Last night's Four Corners was a very good example of why I have dedicated my life and career to researching eating disorders in trans people. Here's some of why gender-affirming care is so important for preventing eating disorders in trans kids and teens 🧵:

The is a big disconnect between ED treatment's body acceptance focus and gender-affirming practice. Encouraging a trans person to 'accept' body parts they are dysphoric about is actively harmful and not conducive to recovery.
