"thick n strong" experience

A Yam W N0 Plan:
This is coming from my experience or recently gaining weight, finally trying out intentionally gaining weight (I got to 250lbs).

All my life, I've been larger than most kids (height, muscle, weight)... and for the longest time I used to be embarrassed being "large and strong". But now, I kind of embrace it. Like, being this size and working out, doing pull up or twice the size of other kids and being on varsity cross country and winning the state title.

Anyone else out there share that experience?


I love them big and strong. Sometimes its because they work out, but other times, it's from lugging all that bulk around. Love it so much.

Game meat/wild animals

Arame:
Your family sounds lit. I’m from the city so hunting was never a thought. Now, I’m trying research if it’s possible to hunt with your bare hands 😅. Meat from the internet? I didn’t know you could do that. Also, remember when I mentioned that I initially thought it was inhumane to eat game? Rabbit was one of the reasons why? I don’t think I could bring myself to eat one 😅😅😅. I don’t know if I could bring myself to eat squirrels or raccoons either. Although, I heard they’re both delicious. Nah I looked up game meat and I think alligator is considered game.

IJDS:
Please do not try to hunt with your bare hands. Or with a bow. Or with anything other than a sufficient calibre gun aimed at the heart/ lungs. Bushcraft is neat, but hunting should take every effort to minimise suffering.


I second this. Game meat comes from wild animals. Emphasis on wild.

That animal will fight for it's life - especially if that means ending yours. So either you'll hurt yourself, cause the animal unreasonable suffering and/or kill the animal in a way that makes the meat inedible.

Because there's a reason why hunters aim for specific spots on an animal.

Game meat/wild animals

IJDS:
Although lamb is fully a domesticated meat, it still has a tendency to be gamey. As I understand it that's mainly because while gaminess is often a product of how the lifestyle of the game has caused its muscles to develop (A concept I imagine you will be highly familiar with), sheep kind of cheat by having a different type of fat to cattle and pigs that gives it a gamier taste. To that effect, I imagine a wild shot duck would have a gamier flavour than one raised for poultry.

Although there have been attempts to farm Bison for meat (understandably not the easiest thing to keep in an enclosure, even with metal walls), a lot the meat will come into the market following controlled hunts in reserves that keep the wild population manageable. I imagine these would absolutely be gamey if you could get your hands on it.


There are ways to cook lamb so it doesn't have that gamey taste (I've done it) but it's kinda labor intensive.

Game meat/wild animals

IJDS:
I'm not sure how easy game meat is to come by in butchers there, if you live in a pretty urban area it may be that you have to ask around a bit.

There's a reason why the term 'gamey' exists, if you go in mentally prepared for something resembling a domesticated meat like pork, beef or chicken you might end up with a clenched up throat and wonder if something's gone off. Lamb is pretty widely available and is often described as gamey, I'd recommend starting there to get an idea of if it's something you'd like.

Arame:
Oh ok. I have had Lamb for Passover, I didn’t really care for it. But wouldn’t Lamb be considered domesticated? Also, is duck considered game or does it depend on the duck? Cause I had duck in 2022. Is Bison considered game too?


webstaurantstore.com/blog/3892/types-of-game-meat.html

Game meat is meat from a wild animal that isn't wildly domesticated. So lamb and duck would not be considered game meat (gamey refers more to taste than if it's actually game meat), but bison would be.

Now, you can buy game meat in some stores. I've bought elk and bison at the store before. But the down side is it may be mixed with other meat like beef and pork.

Reactions to you telling people you're an fa

MarkSeanDavis17:
I've been with one FA and we spent weeks getting to know each other first, establishing trust and respect. Then when we met, the physical things felt natural and we had established trust and communication. If we didn't get along so well, there's no chance we'd meet and continue with fun times together.

Stevia:
Exactly! I definitely think that this is how it’s supposed to go anyways.

Munchies:
A lot of people are ashamed of this kink. And I get it. I do. But I see a lot of FAs (and feeders) who try to keep that part of them a secret so they don't lose whatever relationship they want to be in.

Do not do this. This will not end well.

Instead, do what Mark does: Take the time to get to know the other person, build trust, and communicate well to establish mutual trust.

Maybe you aren't right for each other. And that's okay. There are over 8 billion people in the world. Statistically speaking, you can find at least a couple of people that you vibe well with depending on how you go about things.

Stevia:
Your advice is as golden as always! You had pretty much emphasized what Mark said and I can relate to some of what you experienced as well. Because I’m sure it’s something that many fellow FAs would think the same, or should! Lol.

I just hope that you weren’t trying to criticize me for agreeing with Mark here. 😅


Nah, I was addressing the broader FA base. You good, love.

The common advice I hear is that you should give up on finding someone who shares your kink because of how niche it is. Instead, some people recommend dating a fat person outside of the kink, never tell them, and just admire them in secret.

I'm not saying dating a non-feedist is bad. But if you are going to do that, you have to be honest and value them for more than their body. If you don't, you are setting yourself up for heartbreak.

Enas:
The market pool drastically shrinks if you just filter through incompetent people, narcissists, etc :/

But whats even more importand is how much the person is socializing, and getting to meet new people.

Btw that doesn't mean not to try, its actually more of a "make sure you socialize plenty!".


Shrinking your market pool isn't necessarily a bad thing. The truth is that there are only so many people with whom you will click well. Not filtering your options gives the illusion of having many options, but you are more likely to find scores of people you don't mesh well with.

When you shrink your market pool, it may become harder to find people who want you, but when you do, it's more likely you'll find someone who wants you as you are.

With that said, to my fellow FAs who are going around telling people you want them because they are fat, you are telling people that you only want a superficial relationship based on appearance. If that's your jam, more power to you. But if that's not what you want, then y'all need to do some soul searching.
