...failure to publicize the prevalence and significance of this disease is not unique to Harvard, and its consequences are serious. Because eating disorders continue to be treated as a primarily female problem, men who are struggling with eating and body image are afraid to admit their concerns and are often unaware that help is available.

Allegations of torture had even resulted in investigations by international sports governing bodies, most notably soccer's FIFA, but these had failed to produce conclusive evidence - hardly surprising, since no player would dare admit to suffering such abuse, for fear of even worse...
