WHAT WE'RE ABOUT

RBI focuses on using expressive writing, design-oriented work, photography, media, research, and community input to fuel fat positive, body acceptance, discussion, and outreach. Our goal is to redefine the way we view and think about body image, size, fat, discrimination, health, fitness, wellness, mental/chronic illness, stigma, and other related topics.

We are constantly redefining our own perspectives, and therefore tend to write a lot about our personal experiences. Many followers and contributors are living with anorexia, bulimia, body dysmorphic disorder, depression, and a variety of other body image disorders or mental illnesses, so please be respectful and remember that health applies differently to everyone. Any and all potentially triggering content will be prefaced with a trigger warning.

RBI supports all races, genders, classes, and sizes. We try our best to make this a safe space for everyone. If we are not doing our job or checking our privilege, we invite you to please inform us.

Some of the artwork you see here has been created by our founder or moderators, some sourced when applicable. Please be kind enough to source this blog whenever you share it's content.

We are not health professionals. Any and all advice provided on this blog is supported only by our own research, studies, and personal experiences; nothing more.

This blog is part of the Safe Space Network.

Redefining Body Image // Call for Submissions // Photography

Reopening this call for photo submissions!

I am in great need of some photos to help inspire me as I continue to work on a new website and other projects for RBI. Your photos may be featured in future RBI tactics so any photos you submit may be used to help design:

  • RBI branding/logo/identity
  • a brand new legit blog
  • an upcoming zine
  • any future posters or viral image campaigns
  • etc, etc…

All bodies, all shapes, all races, all gender identities, all ages - Anyone and everyone - I want your body!

Want to submit? Follow these steps (and READ CAREFULLY, otherwise I won’t be able to use your submission!):

  • Either locate already existing photos or snap some new shots of your fabulous body. The photos must be as high quality as possible (high resolution, very little grain or blurriness, no mirror shots where you can see the camera and no webcam photos please.)
  • Keep in mind when selecting or taking photos that the idea is to accentuate your body shape, so please wear close-fitting clothing, a bathing suit, underwear, or something similar. No nudes please.
  • On the other hand, if you’re a fashion-forward individual and wish to submit some photos of you in your favorite outfits, that is also welcome.
  • Feel free to submit as many photos as you like and as many poses as you like - There are no limitations. Get fun and creative! It’s all about representing your shape.

Got questions? Ask.

Otherwise, submit away my dears!

As always, if you would like to reblog and spread the word that would be lovely. <3
