Body Neutrality

Body neutrality is: "the ability to accept and respect your body even if it isn't the way you'd prefer it to be."

"...while it sounds delightful to ooze self-confidence at any size and shape and look, it's also unrealistic to expect that of ourselves 100% of the time - and the 'love your body' rhetoric doesn't always account for that. Sometimes I look in the mirror and DONT like what I see... It seems like a bait-and-switch: I may feel less shame for having cellulite, but instead I feel shame for not liking my cellulite."
