General

I have a preference for fat women primarily because I have fetishes revolving around the fat itself.

I figure that's the best way to explain it. Only took more than two decades to simplify it that much!

Technically it's a "paraphilia".

It really depends on the individual, like everything else in life. There are those who consider it a preference and those that consider it a fetish, along with a verity of mixes in between.

Myself? I have a fetish for fat and weight gain, outside of that, I really don't prefer fatter women over thinner women, but they do tend to have more fat which is what turns me on in the first place.
