Episode 2, Season 2: Body Image and Boys, with Dan Richards & Ben Whit from Naked Beach

How can we raise body confident boys? What’s masculinity look like anyway? And why is there still so much stigma around guys talking about their feelings? We discuss all this and more in the latest episode of Body Cons. This week’s guests are models and body confidence advocates Ben Whit and Dan Richards, who also starred as two of the hosts on Channel 4’s Naked Beach (alongside our very own Molly).
