  • I hate sexism. "Manorexia" is not a fucking word. Use the proper term like professionals, please.

  • The use of "manorexia" is simply a gimmick to get guys to pay attention to the issue. Otherwise, men look at the word anorexia and think it only applies to females. It may be a bit sexist, but it's to keep guys from thinking "I can't have anorexia, that's only for chicks. I'm just trying to get fit."

    The use of "manorexia" will get phased out, don't worry people. Sheesh.

  • @0livia0live Centuries ago, there were no words. Every word was made up at some time. Whole languages have been born this way.

  • @Redonx Ikr LOL

  • ITS ANOREXIA, not manorexia..fucking retards

  • @Sleepwheniamdead ...what the fuck hopefully that is sarcasim.

  • @TheVi0later Oh, right, because eating disorders is an incredibly funny issue and not destructive at all. I get it now! Fucking hilarious.

  • 'Manorexia' does nothing to raise awareness...it simply makes male eating disorders seem weird or less serious then females with eating disorders. No guy with an eating disorder is going to hear that term and think 'Gee, I could get help now! I just have manorexia.' They're going to cover up their disorder even more because they're ashamed.

    Disordred eating is disordered eating. Eating disorders are eating disorders. They don't know sex or gender.

  • ...Gary is getting fat!...get on the elliptical Gary!...you let yourself go....that gut is terrible...

  • Its a pun dumb shits, not sexism, its SUPPOSED to be funny.
