Does anyone use the word "obese" to describe themselves or their partner ?

The only time I really use the word obese is when talking about my medical issues. But as far as describing partners or friends. I’d just call them heavy set.


Same here it's a medical context term based on BMI. As fat is a tissue type. I like terms like corpulent, rotund , portly, ect...

I use obese or fat to describe myself. Obese drives home the point that I've gone from an athlete to a fat guy and I find it hot. Wouldn't use it to describe anyone else unless I knew they were cool with it though.


Exactly, using it reminds me it is real. Obese has a specific medical definition. When you eat yourself into a literally official category of fat, the reminder feels good, though it only makes sense to call someone that who enjoys it the same way.
