In an article from the new issue of O Magazine titled "11 Ways to Feel Beautiful," author Jenny Bailly suggests that every woman go out and find a few good gay men.

"If you don't already have a few gay men in your circle of friends, you might want to add some: A study published last year in the journal Body Image found that friendships with gay men can elevate women's body esteem."

The article goes on to suggest other ways in which women can boost their body image, including wearing clothing that isn't so form-fitting and steering clear of fashion magazines with stick-thin models.
