Body neutrality

Last updated

The concept of body neutrality encourages the mindset that a person's bodily appearance, and attitudes towards it, should have the least possible effect on their experience of life. Its proponents assert that people should neither be celebrated for their conformance with an ideal of bodily beauty nor criticised for departure from such a condition. It may be contrasted with Body positivity, the Fat acceptance movement, Lookism, and body shaming. Amongst its better-known adherents are Erynn Chambers and Bethany C. Meyers. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
