I never said a person can lose weight and keep it off.

If you are gaining on purpose, the joy of gaining has to outweigh (no pun intended) the problems. And for a true gainers, the problems are part of the fun. I personally think that a pair of stretch pants, an oversized top and a huge support bra is sexier than frilly clothes. But not everyone agrees. Many gainers love it when friends and family notice the gain. It means they have been successful in gaining. So, make sure gaining is for you, and if it is, enjoy the ride.

I think to be able to lactate as a male would be interesting.

It is funny that even the strongest Size Acceptance advocates say "I can lose weight if I wanted to." But in reality, if you diet, you slow your metabolism and gain. If you don't diet, you gain or at least stay the same. Very few people actually lose weight and keep it off. Most people regain the weight between the second and third year of dieting.

For someone who REALLY loves gaining, the downsides to gaining can be enjoyable. Not being able to fit in a seat can be quite a turn on. However, if anyone is at the point that they don't feel comfortable at, perhaps it is time to stop, at least temporarily. At that point, you'll either miss the gaining and start again, or not go back to it.

I preferred tall women. But very few of them would date someone their height or shorter. Short and fat is cute. Tall and thin can be cute. But short and thin is not my preference.
