At its core, body positivity is a radical act of liberation. Born from the fat acceptance movement of the 1960s, it challenges the structural and social discrimination faced by people in larger bodies. It argues that a person’s worth is not determined by their waistline, their muscle definition, or their ability to perform a handstand. True body positivity decouples health from morality; it asserts that you can be worthy of love, respect, and joy regardless of your cholesterol level or exercise frequency. It is a ceasefire in the war against the self.
