Body Integrity Dysphoria becomes harder to reduce to a single explanation once the body itself is understood as mapped, interpreted, impaired, named, and judged.In this episode of Contested Bodies, I examine the second half of the history of Body Integrity Dysphoria through xenomelia, body mapping, neurological hypotheses, dysphoria, impairment, disability, and the problem of naming. The episode asks why BID remains so difficult to classify, and why this matters for clinical recognition, justice, autonomy, suffering, and the authority institutions exercise over the body.Contested Bodies is a podcast about the clash between individual autonomy and institutional authority, and the moral and ethical grey zones of body, medicine, autonomy, and power.
