In celebration of Body Positivity Week, BuzzFeed asked more than a dozen men to bare it all (well, almost everything) and talk about their personal struggles with body image. It’s super refreshing and sobering to see men from all walks of life share these personal stories.

Here are two teasers. Be sure to click the button at the bottom to see the whole series:

“People find reasons to not appreciate bigger people because they think they look ‘unhealthy.’ I say we tell those people to get out of the unhealthy mindset of disrespecting others and celebrate beauty for all.” — Kyle

“I’ve been told, ‘Your scar won’t get you any bookings or work. You will have to always cover [it] up and on top of that you are black.’” — Jimmy
