Has the body positive movement lost its radical roots?

Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

鈥楤ody positivity鈥� is a social movement rooted in the belief that we should be more accepting of the way our bodies look. Social media has created spaces for marginalised groups - disabled women, women of colour, plus size women - to love themselves and their bodies. But as the net has widened and become more mainstream, has the term 鈥榖ody positivity鈥� lost its radical roots? Who does it belong to and what is the point of the movement? Jane Garvey speaks to bloggers, Imogen Fox, Rachael Sealy and Victoria Smith.
