I know the topic itself is usually sexual, but for me, I don't always feel sexual about it. My journey is part of me being comfortable with myself and enjoying the food and the journey. Sure I feel some sort of sexual gratification from it sometimes, but not all the time. That and I was thinking about having a relationship(which I probably will make a post about on another forum) that wasn't just sexual. Is that a completely different thing or is it part of feederism? I've only joined the community pretty recently, so I apologize if I may be wrong.
Munchies:
Feedism is, at it's core, about feeding people and being fed. Fat fetishism is all about enjoying fatness.
Both of these things are not inherently sexual.
Plus, this community has a good chunk of sex-repulsed ace people. If they can find their bliss here, so can you.
BigBallBellyGirl:
Completely right. I liked being chubby/fat as a kid, and I liked fat characters in books and TV, long before I had sexual thoughts or feelings. My first grade teacher was a big woman, and I thought she was pretty and sweet.
Same with my husband. He is of course sexually attracted to fat, but he also just finds a full figure visually pleasing in a non-sexual way.
Of course fat admiration, gaining, etc. can be sexy, but that's not all it is. There's a place for everyone here!
I agree & can relate. It took me a while to get comfortable in my own skin & I enjoy being fat. I was always particularly drawn towards fat characters in tv & books as well.
I'm sexually attracted to fat, my wife is a bbw. I also find full figures to be visually appealing as well. I have always found full figure to be more appealing to me, in a non-sexual way, that's what my preference has been for a long time.
