body liberation
Anti-shame body movement
Body liberation is a social and personal framework rejecting the idea that bodies must meet certain standards to deserve respect, access, or dignity.
It goes beyond body positivity's focus on self-acceptance to challenge systems that marginalize people based on size, disability, race, or appearance: Body liberation isn't about learning to love your body—it's about dismantling why you were taught to hate it.
