That is fair enough; I was just asking the question. The numbers provided in the opening statement are huge, with some 180,000 people affected. I wish to return to the issue of the male cohort. What kind of services are available to them or are there particular challenges that a boy or a man faces in seeking help for an eating disorder, because I think we still categorise it as affecting women and girls more often?
