# Free Body
Free (as in freedom) body, also libre body, is a body of a human who allows (legally and otherwise) everyone some basic rights to it, such as the right to touch any of its part. This is a concept inspired by that of [free software](free_software.md) and [free culture](free_culture.md), just applied to one's body.
