That is just plain untrue. I’ve seen plenty of Dhamma talks from Thai teachers speaking about it.
It’s not about denying aspects of your current body.
I think you should read a bit more about it and maybe watch a couple Dhamma talks on anatta before coming to a conclusion about it. It’s incredibly complicated and hard to understand, and in my opinion not at all for beginners to really tangle with. I have probably like a somewhat advanced beginner’s understanding of Buddhism, not even an intermediate, and I barely see the faintest outline of the implications of that concept.
