Does it matter? The word fantasy is in the url.

Munchies:
There's a difference between fantasy and misleading people. If you are going to publicly fantasize about something, at least have the balls to admit it.

Does it matter that he's disrespecting and degrading his wife and her sister in front of strangers? Idk. You tell me.

Newenglander:
My SIL was a thick and sporty cheerleader in her teens, think one of those who hold up the bottom of the pyramid. Neither fat nor skinny. From HS through her early 20s, she used to work out and had some definition.

Fast forward to her mid-20s. Nearly 300 lbs on a 5'2" frame, the product of sedentary work and pure gluttony. This girl got wide with soft, thick back rolls and huge belly. I love how her flat ass has a thick mound of fat at the top which comes around and integrates with her apron. Her thighs filled out as well, flabby and loaded with cellulite.

When she comes to visit, she usually hits me up for back rubs. Nothing new from before her gain, this has been going on for years, however the rubs have become more fat rub than back rub over time.

The last time, my wife was busy cooking so she laid on the bed and asked me to rub her. I got carried away squeezing and caressing her side rolls and the lower back fat above her ass for about an hour. While there was no discussion whatsoever, she knew what I was doing and absolutely loved it.

As time goes on, my SIL has also been greeting me with tighter hugs, deliberately pressing her belly into me. Not long ago I squeezed her in a bear hug, picked her up, and spun her around just to be silly. It was as well received as it was unexpected, she was all smiles for a while after I put her down.

Munchies:
Man, do I feel bad for your wife. If I found out my husband was lusting over my sister, I'd end up with major trust issues. That's one of the worst betrayals out there.

Newenglander:
You're making the wrong assumption that my wife isn't a willing participant.

Munchies:


So, you're saying your wife is 100% okay with you sexualizing and fetishizing her sister? And that she is 100% aware that's what you're doing?

Okay.

Newenglander:
Did I mince words? Is this not a fat fetish site?

I frequently see content on this site with which I disagree, however I remain respectful of the fact that others have different kinks.

We're all adults here, let's behave like such.

Fat People aren’t UFOs or supernatural phenomena wtf “sightings” 😂

Right now in the forums when you quote a post, it stacks multiple quotes on top of each other unless the user manually edits. This can lead to having to scroll through huge text chains, or manually edit, and sometimes the whole thing just breaks depending on how one person in the chain edited their post for readability.

Would it be possible to have the quote button only copy the new text in the post you’re quoting, and not the other quotes in the chain? I think that would be more of a web forum convention.

Munchies:
Either this or a collapsible reply chain

Morbidly A Beast:
I’ve seen some pretty fatphobic stuff with ai memes like the Lamborghini Gamer Toliet or the planet mtn dew meme

To respond to the actual topic in the thread, I am also sick of seeing AI images. Regardless of where the pictures are scraped/stolen from, their database for their prompts is limited and inherently unimaginative, and it therefore ends up spitting out the same recursive imagery over and over again. It's oftentimes rubbery and ugly and if it's looked at for longer than a handful of seconds the cohesion of the image itself tends to fall apart.
As OP said, it also detracts from the unique shapes and sizes of different people and their gains, as well as the diversity of ways a body can carry weight. The majority of AI images I see are all the exact same tight round belly on an otherwise average (perhaps content aware-scaled) body. (And usually a white body.) The way AI generates skin folds rarely cascades in a natural manner; it reminds me of seeing novice artists (usually kids) score a bunch of random diagonal lines all over a character's clothing to imply folds because they don't have a grasp of gravity yet. They know folds should be there in order for it to look natural, but they don't understand how they work or how they form. So seeing a bunch of AI art depict fat people as either made of inflated latex (unintentionally) or like random lumps of flesh is not only literally objectifying, it also slides very quickly into uncanny valley territory. There's style, and then there's error.

Because of the way AI works and the images it pulls from, it also tends to produce very boring images of people standing listlessly in front of a background. Even when self-proclaimed "AI artists" purport to wield their prompts like paintbrushes, it's extremely rare if not impossible to see AI images with dynamic poses or angles. Even for the more unrealistic fetishes like expansion/inflation, the average DeviantArt gallery will have more imaginative pieces than the best AI. Things like POV shots, sequences, custom (original or fan) characters, and so on aren't really possible with AI. But I guess if you're the kind of person who's been getting off to templates to begin with (...also like many DeviantArt fetish accounts), AI fits the bill, I guess.

Munchies:
In fact, a lot of AI is marketed on not paying artists. It's one thing if you, for example, want to use AI art for the cover of your latest fat kink story.


Candyscorpion:
I don't know about you but I can't imagine anything that would put me off more to reading a story than AI cover art. There are billions of free use stock images and plenty of artists in the community to commission. You could even collaborate with models to pose for your story's cover, or if a model's series inspired your story, ask for their permission to use it for the cover! The worst thing they can say is no.

Your story can be the hottest thing ever written but slapping AI on it feels like wrapping it in a dirty dishtowel. After all, both are comprised of a bunch of junk it mopped up.

Fanedfox:
This question is not on the same thread. Is there a limit to the number of stories that can be shown on a non-premium subscription?

I've had requests asking where a certain story is. I look and I cannot find it. I'm sure I published here.

Do stories get deleted randomly without any violations of policies?

Hiccupx:
The AI generated tick box sounds like the way to go for now. My take on AI in general is that, human created is better. I predict that in the near future, the Internet is going to be absolutely awash with AI generated content, and the vast majority of it will be sub-standard, mass produced, drivel. The more AI there is, the more human generaled content will seem rare and valuable, and this is what people will want. For instance, there are now quite a few AI generaled images in the pics section, they are quite clever and of some interest for a while, but of far more interest are images of real people.

Letters And Numbers:
I guess I disagree a bit. The internet is already saturated with static AI images, and I don't see that changing without legislation to protect IP. If you look at Deviantart, it's flooded with AI (here's their policy, fyi. Mandatory to disclose if any AI tools are used, and they have bots that scan metadata to independently flag suspected AI. www.deviantart.com/team/journal/New-Label-Requirement-for-AI-Artwork-966421077). Midjourney has gotten really good. Even free tools are good. A lot of people have trouble telling the difference between good photorealistic AI and the real thing. Even on this site, people get fooled. *Especially* on a site like this where a lot of people want extraordinary body proportions, there will be a demand for AI images. Hopefully the era of the tech bros and computer touchers who call themselves artists because they can generate a cool pic of a sexy astronaut (seriously, why is it always astronauts?) is over, but who knows.

For written word, AI is getting worse. There have been bot-written stories posted on this website going back a year. If you read stories regularly, you may have read some and had no idea. They are getting better and faster to make. Our friend, the OP (who seems like a very nice fellow), generated conservatively 30,000 words of content that for the most part makes sense in maybe 2 weeks. And that's from a non-native english speaker. There are bot-written stories on here that are more convincing. They fool people. By this time next year, AI fiction is going to be absolutely everywhere.

AI video, too. That's the next one we'll see over the next year. It will be interesting to see what onlyfans does. I don't know if they have an AI policy or not. But they have a ton of money behind them, and if they want AI video on their site, they could really put pressure on legislators to slow down and let AI do its thing. Or vice-versa. We know where SAG AFTRA stands.

And I guess I disagree that people will choose the human-made stuff over the AI-generated stuff. Some will! But people like consumer art (and smut) that's familiar, that is like a product they already love, with a small enough twist to make it different, but samey enough that it doesn't challenge. Look at the most popular TV shows and books and movies and music. Imagine Dragons is a huge band! Imagine Dragons! They make music for 7-year old boys! They're huge! AI-Imagine Dragons would be huge, too. I mean, some of the most popular human-written stories on here are some of the dumbest, too. But that's what people like! By and large, the lowest common denominator is pretty low. Go into any professional/semi-professional writing space and all the advice is to find a very popular, marketable entity and copy the formula with enough of a twist that it passes the sniff test, and then market yourself to fans of that original property. And repeat.

But AI checkboxes would be a good step and would keep this site in line with a lot of other content hosting sites out there. Definitely a good step.

Munchies:
Generative AI is the worst it will ever be. It will get better in time. Have you seen generative AI when it first hit? It sucked big time. And in the short time since then, there's already been major improvements.

And all of this? It comes at the expense of those who make content. The majority of them didn't consent to it either. And to then use it to make money off of said content? It's a slap in the face to anyone who makes content. It's honestly demoralizing and disincentives people from posting anything.

This should be something you look into in the long-term lest FF turn into a feedist content farm.
