My longest relationship is with food : exploring eating related behaviors throughout the gender identity journey of transgender males
This study sought to explore how transgender adult males have navigated the development of their eating behaviors throughout their gender identity trajectory. While recent research has focused on gender identity development and protective factors of the transgender community, this study explored and examined elements regarding the eating related behaviors of transgender males. Interviews were conducted with six participants within the United States during semi structured virtual sessions; the age range of participants was 19 to 35. Results of this research revealed identity management, Sociopolitical discourse, identity management and inter-relational identity affirmations as inter-multicultural segments that connected with eating related behaviors and eating disorder symptomology. This data can be used to report the significance of providing affirmative care in clinical environments and to draw attention to existing gaps in the literature regarding the experiences of transgender males throughout their gender identity journey
