In the organizer's words:

Panel and discussion on the topic of body (images) with the queer feminist collective

Body positivity originally describes a movement that advocates the acceptance and love of all bodies. An attitude, private or public, that describes an appreciative view of the diversity of our society. However, through marketing and consumerism, body positivity has also developed a new kind of obsession with beauty and performance. But what is a body that can be described as positive? What is ideal, what is the norm? And who gets to decide?

In cooperation with the Queerfeminist Collective Heidelberg, we want to explore how bodies and physicality are currently perceived in our society in a panel discussion and subsequent smaller discussion rounds and ask: Who does my body belong to in this society?
