Yes, a lot of boys suffer from eating disorders. My best friend is a guy and he is anorexic with purging tendancies.
A famous male musician in England suffered from anorexia and was quite open about it, if you feel like looking him up his name is Richey Edwards.

I know three males with EDs. Sports and girlfriends triggered it.
It may seem like girls are the only anorexic/bulimics, but when you think about it, it makes sense; overweight guy with a slim girlfriend became anorexic because he felt self-concious around her... or a guy has to lose X number of pounds for a certain sport...
Therere are countless situations that can cause males to be unsatisfied with their bodies... just like we see with girls.

Guys are usually more bulimic than anorexic. In sports like horse jockey and wrestling, they lose weight to be in a certain weight range.

Guys can be anorexic and bulimic. I think it might only be like...gay guys though...because their feminine or something. I just know that I went to this anorexia site and saw a picture of this really skinny guy.

why? because some girls are desperate for attention and not contented with the way they look but any other way guys dont have to die trying to loose weight because some girls are too desperate. and cheap.thats why you never hear of guys being anorexic.

Absolutely!!!! It was just never talked about since it was always classified as a "girl" disease. I knew 2 guys in my High School who were "obsessed" with their bodies and weight.

It occurs in males too but for some reason it is really focused on in females. Guys have self image concerns too.

They are. But mostly if there in a sport like wresteling that requires a weight limit. Or if there modles.
