How about a video? Here's an example. These gals are quite big but have hardly any tummy. What's the verdict?

Interesting. So it's just in there so that if someone goes to a therapist all worried about it the therapist can look it up and say "It's not a mental illness...don't worry about it. That'll be $90."?

There are lots of downsides to gaining (especially starting where your husband already is!). Just because the idea turns him on does not mean he should do it. Also it can be a slippery slope...even a little stuffing and gaining might lead to him gaining a lot more than he wants.

A frank talk about his concerns might help. Maybe if you can help him gain in a careful manner (contrary to your inclination I'm sure!) he'd be more open to it.

As far as I can determine, psychologists consider feedism a "paraphilia" (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paraphilias), not a mental illness. Of course they often disagree about what is and what isn't a mental illness (e.g. homosexuality was once considered an illness).

I'm not a psychologist but it seems to me there's a clear evolutionary explanation for feedism:

Traditional societies often had/have periodic food shortages. Some of these societies developed the custom of gorging themselves during times of plenty to gain enough fat to get through the lean times. In such a society, feedism would be adaptive, since it would help encourage people to eat enough during those times of plenty. Thus there would be evolutionary pressure for people to have feedist tendencies.

Depending on your particular ancestry, you may or may not inherit this tendency and if so it may or may not be triggered by your own particular environment. So some people are feedists and some aren't.

So I wouldn't call this a sickness. You could call it an "atavism" since modern societies don't have periodic food shortages. Nowadays food is shipped and stored, which is much more practical than gaining fat.

Do you reckon a lot of plus-sized models have belly fat removed? A lot of them have big hips, busts, thighs and butts with disproportionately small bellies. I've always wondered if plastic surgery was involved.

Wait, that's your specialty? Exaggerated hourglass shaping for fat girls?

Recipe?

How long did you do it once a month before you had to start doing it more often?

Actually I did see a TV show about plastic surgery where a mother with two daughters in their late teens bought them operations. The slender daughter got a breast augmentation. The fat daughter basically moved her fat around to give her more of an hourglass shape.

They both looked good before but looked even better after the surgeries. Especially the fat girl! And I liked the fat-acceptance angle, the idea that she loved to eat and wasn't going to change that and that was okay.
