      ab: A study was conducted to examine how college-aged women and men's self-reported discrepancies in actual and ideal femininity and masculinity are linked to three measures of body image. The Bem Sex Role Inventory, the Figure Rating Scale, and the Eating Disorders Inventory–Body Dissatisfaction Subscale were completed by 159 college undergraduates. Results revealed that physical size, not gender role discrepancy, was predictive of body image for women. For males, falling short of their masculine ideal, together with physical size, was predictive of more negative body image. These findings are considered in the context of gender schema theory and cultural ideals of female thinness and male masculinity.
