What is body positivity?
The main idea behind the body positivity movement is that all people deserve to feel good about the body they’re in. Few people truly have what would be considered an “ideal” body (and the goalpost is changing constantly) so instead of repeatedly comparing our bodies to others to see if we’re “good enough,” it’s a lot easier and better for everyone if we can learn to love the bodies we’re in. They do amazing things, after all!
This list of 35 links to custom content is meant to be a starting point to add more diversity to your Sims 4 characters. Having a world full of different-looking sims who all are equally worthy of respect is a wonderful way to introduce more body positivity into the Sims.
Body Presets
The Sims 4 has a range of body presets you can start from when creating your characters but because people and body types are vast, the game simply can’t cover everyone. Presets are a popular thing in the CC community though, and there are a huge variety out there you can choose from to add more body positive diversity to your game.

Marks, Scars, Etc.
Body Positivity isn’t just about loving the body we’re in, but the way it looks as well. What some might consider “imperfections” such as scars or stretch marks not only contributes to what makes each body unique, but also serves as a testament to the amazing things our bodies can do!

Final Thoughts
It isn’t always easy to stay body positive, and a lack of representation in escapism games like the Sims 4 doesn’t really help either. Because the sims community is full of creative people in all sorts of bodies, we’re lucky enough to have access to custom content that appeals to all sorts of bodies as well. We hope you were able to see yourself in this CC list and find some new content to bring body positivity to your sims!
