Fat experiences

Being fat is annoying—what with the sweating, the chafing of your backside and armpits, and the snoring. Thigh chafing is a nuisance, too. So, what exactly is great about it?

Truthfully not sure if this is meant in jest. What's great about it? I'd say... the sweating. The chafing of the backside and armpits. Thigh chafing. Not so much snoring. But feeling heavier and more substantial. Eating tons of food. Eventually having no choice but to waddle instead of walk. The hedonism. It's an absolute blast.

I think it’s a personal experience for everyone. Sometimes those things that annoy one person can be a turn on or a comfort to another. And for the person themselves it can change day to day

E.g. today I had a 7 hour journey in a relatively small car and my thighs being squished together that long with not much room to move got on my nerves after a while! But other times if driving over bumps and I feel it ripple on my thighs and over my body it’s enjoyable.

So it’s a nuanced answer and different for each I’d say.

User Fatgirlbelly said it really well. I really like how fat looks and feels on my body overall. I like when my body rubs against itself and jiggles, I like the roundness and softness of my features. I also like those features on others and find them attractive, especially if that person is confident and at ease with their body. But other people's bodies are their own business, so if they're not happy with it, I respect that. How can I not, when I myself felt wrong being slimmer?

From a more practical view, I like how it cushions my body against hard objects, making it easier for me to comfortably carry big heavy things in front of me. I have built in cushions all over my body, I rarely feel the pressure of my skin being pinched between my bones and another object. And it's so much easier to swim because I don't have to work as hard to stay afloat, compared to more muscular folks.

There are negatives for me too, but a lot of them are things I was already dealing with to some extent before I got fatter, and everything else is manageable in some way or worth the tradeoff. I don't love how much I sweat, but I was gonna sweat regardless because I take testosterone and work outside in the heat. I don't like excessive chafing, so I choose my underclothes so that they help to reduce that (boxer briefs are fantastic for me) and otherwise wear clothes so the areas that rub a lot are covered. My shirts all start to wear holes in the armpits after a while, but it is what it is. I have acid reflux, but it's genetic and I've had it since childhood. I snore sometimes but I'm not convinced my weight is entirely to blame and I can still manage it unless I'm sick or something. And I have a smaller frame overall so getting fat hasn't negatively impacted my ability to do most weight- or size-limited activities.

to be able to crush other little guys like me under their big bellies, and keep them nice and warm in their fat🐻🧸

Everything is cool about it what are you doing here if you disagree dude

I see what you mean.

For me, on the one hand, when I try to do a basic task, my belly gets in the way and I get winded and struggle to do it which is so annoying...

but on the other hand, when I try to do a basic task, my belly gets in the way and I get winded and struggle to do it which is... 😵‍💫😵‍💫🥰🥰

Eating what you want

Not caring what others think about your body

It's very liberating
