Most of us probably already know intuitively that body image affects our satisfaction and enjoyment of sexual experiences. For many people, putting on a pair of pants that feel too tight, seeing a less-than-ideal number on a scale, or just thinking they’re not looking good on a given day can be a serious turn-off in the bedroom. For those who chronically experience poor body image, it’s common to report lower sexual satisfaction, more difficulty talking about sex, and even avoiding sexual activity altogether.

Systemic barrier may be especially troublesome for those seeking behavioral, mental health services.

When it comes to using dating apps, you sort of have to throw caution to the wind. Because all you have is a handful of photos and a profile to go by, you have to hope that whoever is on the other end, after you've matched, is legit.

It may seem unlikely, but it happens. It's called reverse catfishing.
