However, it is unknown how men and women may uniquely experience the stigma associated with eating disorders. Moreover, the complex relationship between gender and stigma are unknown. Examination of gender's impact on eating disorders needs to expand beyond research that examines gender only in the context of self-reported gender role orientation and eating disorder symptoms to include how gender creates norms and attitudes which affect those with eating disorders. Specifically, there is a dearth of literature regarding how stigma for men with eating disorders is different than it is for women with eating disorders. This study attempted to describe the phenomenon of gender-specific stigma in Anorexia Nervosa. born digital doctoral dissertations English eng Colorado State University.
