Episode description

A recent honours thesis from University of South Australia student, Luigi Donnarumma, has investigated the relationship between social media and men's body image - particularly muscle dysmorphia, a form of body dysmorphia often seen in men, resulting in feelings of not being muscular or strong enough.

TuneFM caught up with Luigi to discuss his paper, and the impacts of muscle dysphoria on young men.
