Vegan Gains weighs in on the relentless media coverage of how Barbie dolls cause unrealistic body expectations in women but there is hardly ever mention of the potential body image issues muscular media-generated male characters appearing on television shows such as He-Man and Dragon Ball Z cause for men. Are there men who take steroids, insulin, growth hormone, and synthol because they were bombarded by muscular cartoon characters since birth? Not that muscular cartoon characters are a bad thing but can the media cover the fact that they can create unrealistic body expectations in men as well as women instead of always showing women to be the sole victims?
