My Body, Their Rules

Who decides what a "perfect" body is? And what happens when our bodies don’t fit that mould? In the first episode of Season 2 of Atypical Dikkatein, we sit down with Hameeda Syed, freelance journalist & co-founder of Dignity in Difference, to unpack the unrealistic expectations placed on our bodies, from ableism to gendered labour and SRHR.

Tune in now for a powerful conversation around gender, bodily autonomy, ableism, and the deeply ingrained pressures we carry.
