โYOU ARE IMPERFECT, PERMANENTLY AND INEVITABLY FLAWED. AND YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.โโ AMY BLOOM
Claiming is now open for A Devious & Diverse New Year!
Kinks of Knockturn Alley wants to start 2024 off hot, so weโre back with another iteration of one of our favorite fests! Devious & Diverse New Year looks to highlight body positivity, how it intersects with both fandom and sex-positivity, and to celebrate another devious year to come!
Body positivity refers to the belief that all people should have a positive body imageโno matter how society, cultures, or generational ideals view shape, size, and appearance. Some of the goals of the body positivity movement include:
๐ฟ Challenging how society views the body
๐ฟPromoting the acceptance of all diverse body types
๐ฟHelping people build up their confidence and acceptance of their bodies
๐ฟTackling unrealistic body standards
Body positivity also recognizes that judgments are made based on other contexts such as - race, gender, sexuality, and even disabilities. Body positivity aims to help people understand how media messages contribute to how people perceive their bodies and their relationship with themselves in how they feel about food, exercise, clothing, health, identity, and self-care. By understanding the effects influences have, people can develop a healthier and more realistic relationship with themselves.
All pairings are welcome. Triadriads and multis, general, and non-romantic.
Each prompt may only be claimed once. Your prompt will be dropped if you claim a prompt once it is full.
Your story or artwork must revolve around your prompt, a kink of your choice, and body positivity!
