Gay men have increased risk of body dissatisfaction and disordered eating compared to heterosexual men, and it is unclear what differentiates their risk for thinness- and muscularity-oriented eating psychopathology. Differing subcultural appearance identifications (SAIs) among gay men are one potential factor that may relate to varied eating psychopathology, but this has not been studied. We examined gay men’s SAIs: twinks, jocks, and bears; any “other” self-identified SAI; or no SAI, as well as the relationship between men’s SAIs and traditional eating psychopathology and unhealthy dieting (both facets of thinness-oriented psychopathology), and muscularity-oriented psychopathology using univariate ANOVAs controlling for participant age. 264 U.S. gay-identified participants self-reported sexual orientation, SAIs, and eating psychopathology. Self-identified twinks did not report higher traditional eating psychopathology or unhealthy dieting than other SAIs or those without a SAI, as hypothesized. Self-identified twinks, jocks, and bears all reported greater muscularity-oriented eating pathology than those without a SAI. Self-identified jocks also reported higher muscularity-oriented disordered eating than those with an “other” self-identified SAI and bears. Thus, having a SAI may increase risk for disordered eating; specifically, identifying as a twink, jock or bear may confer greater risk for muscularity-oriented eating pathology.

Twinks、Jocks 和 Bears,哦,我的天哪!男同性恋者的不同亚文化外表认同及其相关的饮食失调精神病理学

与异性恋男性相比,男同性恋者身体不满意和饮食失调的风险增加,目前尚不清楚是什么区分了他们患瘦弱和肌肉发达的饮食精神病理学的风险。男同性恋者中不同的亚文化外表识别 (SAI) 是可能与不同饮食精神病理学有关的一个潜在因素,但尚未对此进行研究。我们检查了男同性恋者的 SAI:twinks、jocks 和 bears;任何“其他”自我认定的 SAI;或没有 SAI,以及男性 SAI 与传统饮食精神病理学和不健康节食之间的关系(面向瘦身的精神病理学的两个方面),以及使用控制参与者年龄的单变量 ANOVA 的肌肉发达精神病理学之间的关系。264 名美国同性恋参与者自我报告了性取向、SAI 和饮食精神病理学。与其他 SAI 或没有 SAI 的人相比,自认的 twinks 没有报告更高的传统饮食精神病理学或不健康饮食,如假设的那样。与没有 SAI 的人相比,自认为是小男孩、运动员和熊的人都报告了更多以肌肉为导向的饮食病理学。自我认同的运动员也报告说,与具有“其他”自我认同的 SAI 和熊的人相比,肌肉导向的饮食失调更高。因此,患有 SAI 可能会增加饮食失调的风险;具体而言,将其识别为小熊、乔克或熊可能会增加以肌肉发达为导向的饮食病态的风险。和熊都报告了比没有 SAI 的人更严重的以肌肉为导向的进食病理学。自我认同的运动员也报告说,与具有“其他”自我认同的 SAI 和熊的人相比,肌肉导向的饮食失调更高。因此,患有 SAI 可能会增加饮食失调的风险;具体而言,将其识别为小熊、乔克或熊可能会增加以肌肉发达为导向的饮食病态的风险。和熊都报告了比没有 SAI 的人更严重的以肌肉为导向的进食病理学。自我认同的运动员也报告说,与具有“其他”自我认同的 SAI 和熊的人相比,肌肉导向的饮食失调更高。因此,患有 SAI 可能会增加饮食失调的风险;具体而言,将其识别为小熊、乔克或熊可能会增加以肌肉发达为导向的饮食病态的风险。
