Body positivity is gaining more and more popularity around the world every year. It would seem that such a movement should rid us of the problems associated with the cult of thinness and the notorious standards of society. And in many ways, a positive attitude to the body has borne fruit. First, the concept of beauty has unequivocally expanded. Now on fashion shows and magazine covers you can see not only a girl with perfectly retouched skin and without a single hint of fat layer, but also an ordinary man with his own features: overweight, wrinkles and folds, hair, individual features of the skin. In general, with everything that we are all so familiar with in real life.<\/p>\n
Secondly, the new social trend teaches us to respect others. Bullying is unacceptable, especially if it is based on external features: figure, skin color, facial features or any diseases. In the end, bodypositive helped many people to accept themselves, saved them from anorexia, eating disorders, depression and even desperate acts. After all, imposed standards of beauty are quite a strong benchmark, and the desire to conform to them in most cases becomes unhealthy.<\/p>\n
