Had the pleasure of overseeing some fascinating work by @PaoloM_Persona in the #bodyneutrality space! We found that body neutrality content on TikTok was diverse, suggesting the social media movement is flexible & ever-expanding 🙌

Excited to share our new brief report, now available open access in Body Image! We used random intercept cross-lagged panel models to examine the relationships of muscularity and body fat dissatisfaction with psychological QoL among ~3000 sexual minority men.🧵@Scott1Griffiths

Stoked to have chatted to @GeraetsNell about cosmetic surgery & motherhood 💉The misogyny and stigma embedded in cosmetic surgery discourse is particularly horrific for mothers, who are told they should "rise above vanity" now that they're mums
