How multicultural friend groups navigate conflicting body standards

Our friend group includes women from like six different countries and we always end up in these weird conversations where everyone's trying to be supportive about body image but we clearly have totally different ideas about what's normal or healthy.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Well-meaning friends discover that body positivity itself is culturally relative, creating new forms of misunderstanding.
