Body positivity versus body neutrality

article image placeholderBody neutrality, not body positivity, may be the best way to fight unsustainable beauty ideals. Here's how to channel it.
Body neutrality allows me to focus on the real purpose of my body and again appreciate that purpose, reminding myself that although there are these social expectations and biases that are put, especially on women's bodies, the real function of a body is beyond that. Now, this is not to say that body positivity is a sham or that body positivity isn't a wonderful movement because I think that there are so many valuable things about body positivity and the purpose behind it

Body neutrality is necessary!

I think this is especially important to talk about right now when we're living in confined situations, isolated from others and we're just alone with ourselves and we have to look at ourselves. And I think a lot of people, more often women than not, are forced to pick one of these either body, body, body, body, body, body positivity versus body neutrality body because choosing neither path is unsustainable in my opinion, and I think that there's definitely validity to both
