Abstract：
Using culture-based approaches, Monocello et al. revealed that young Korean men generally shared the same perceptions of fatness, including three categories (\"too thin,\" \"balanced,\" and \"too fat\"). The \"balanced\" category was most consistent with local South Korean culture, and the \"too fat\" category was associated with higher body dissatisfaction and disordered eating. Even though cultural differences in body ideals are an essential factor to consider in the development of body dissatisfaction and disordered eating, little research has applied culture-based approaches to explore body ideals in men, including how these ideals may be related to men\'s body image or eating behaviors. Thus, Monocello et al.\'s work is a timely and vital contribution to the literature. In this commentary, we expand on Monocello et al.\'s work by not only illustrating the roles of local cultures but also introducing the potential influences of external cultures via acculturation in shaping body ideals which, in turn, contribute to body dissatisfaction and disordered eating in men. We also provide future research directions to call for more culture-based research to understand body dissatisfaction and disordered eating among men in different cultural contexts.
摘要：
使用基于文化的方法，Monocello等人。据透露，韩国年轻人普遍对肥胖有相同的看法，包括三个类别(“太薄，\"\"平衡，\"和\"太胖\")。“平衡”类别最符合韩国当地文化，“太胖”类别与较高的身体不满和饮食失调有关。尽管身体理想的文化差异是身体不满和饮食失调发展的一个重要因素，很少有研究应用基于文化的方法来探索男性的身体理想，包括这些理想可能与男人的身体形象或饮食行为有关。因此，Monocello等人。他的作品是对文学的及时而重要的贡献。在这篇评论中,我们扩展Monocello等人。他的工作不仅说明了当地文化的作用，而且还通过文化适应在塑造身体理想中引入了外部文化的潜在影响，反过来,导致男性身体不满和饮食紊乱。我们还提供了未来的研究方向，呼吁更多基于文化的研究，以了解不同文化背景下男性的身体不满和饮食失调。
