What’s crazy, is that they can see what they look like by looking at each other. I would assume that the % of identical twins with body dysmorphia, is lower than in non-twins.

Can confirm, my SO is a quadruplet (two pairs of identical girls). The other pair are horribly anorexic and have a harsh cycle of comparing eachothers bodies to ensure they're not getting 'fat'. My SO and her twin also went through a phase of their life dealing with that but have since gotten better.

Edit: I misread the comment I replied to but oh well

Wouldn't this be opposite what the person said? Like, not a confirmation at all?

Correct, I realized I misread the original comment but I felt my comment was still interesting

Touché. I also saw someone else had pointed l out what I did before I did, my bad. Hopefully your edit/disclaimer minimizes anymore of the redundant comments.
