Nycfa:
Thank you.

Perhaps I was not as clear as well. I may describe my thought better as follows: when I was in college, I had a buddy who all the girls thought was a cutie and wanted to be with him. He very often declined because he wanted something that wasn’t superficial. I never had that experience myself. But, it made me think that if one is seen in that way regardless of gender (I never was) it would probably be easier to wait for what you want, rather than … something else. I’m not sure how to finish that thought without worry that it will come out sounding wrong, but, if we understand each other, I hope you’ll know what I’m trying to say


There's nothing wrong with waiting for the right partner to come along. A lot of people do it and are perfectly happy with it.

But there is also nothing wrong with persuing. Still, when you persue, you need to take care not to objectify the other person. A lot of the poor interactions people have is due to a lack of basic respect and decency.

I don't wish to poo-poo the struggles your friend had. I am sure they were traumatizing for him. But, when it comes to women (cis and trans), there's a certain level of violence we have to navigate as well.

If a man desires a woman, and she rejects him for whatever reason, she's taking a big risk. Maybe he'll be respectful and step back. But there's a risk that he'll take it as a personal attack and retaliate.

Again, this is not to say men do not experience such things. I personally know some men who have experienced this at the hands of women or other men. But, due to how our society is, women are more likely to be victimized.

I do not believe I said any such thing. Either I did not express myself clearly, or, you mistook my meaning. I would attempt to qualify, however, I decline to do so at the risk of making myself the target of any further gratuitous and ad hominem attacks.

Thank you


I did not accuse you of anything. I said that the system you are describing is patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity. I then proceeded to discuss these systems in more detail as well as the implications therein. Perhaps I was a bit too academic in my writing.

The thing with women is we might get a lot of matches, but they're not all quality matches. So we can have tons of matches but still feel just as frustrated as men with few because most of them will be men casting a wide net instead of being genuinely interested in us as people.

Nycfa:
I would tend to agree, but, if I were to reply from a guy’s perspective, I would have to say that it’s hard for us to understand. More specifically, when a girl goes out, there will often be more than one guy trying to flirt with her over the course of an evening, regardless of the setting/venue. On the flip side, there are very few guys who will ever go out and find one girl, let alone more than one, who will initiate flirting. So, I think (if only my opinion) that one gender does not relate to the other on this level. When someone is always being flirted up (often a girl) it’s easier to be choosier. To that end, a guy may often think that he’s got to come up with something very quickly to impress, or, he will not have another chance.

As I write this, I realize that such behavior may make us (guys) look like idiots or desperate, but that’s not always the case. It may just be that we have been conditioned to believe that a girl won’t see the real person in us if we dont have some “game” right from the beginning

Kind of a messed up situation, no?


What you are describing is patriarchy and hegemonic masculinity. Within this social framework, the men are in charge, and the women are delicate prizes to be won.

In this dehumanizing system, men have to be something they are not in hopes to achieve success, and women are objects.

I do not say this to say that men are evil oppressors bent on subjegating women. Both men and women participate in upholding patriarchy all the time. Rather, I say this to provide clarity on the social constructs that most of us live in.

Fat shaming

Curiosity:
Does anybody obese would like to be shaming for... Being skinny? Like when you are 400+ but you are called skinny and not fat enough?


Do it with my feedee from time to time.

Speeding up gaining?

Enas:
We're studying anatomy right now at college! XD
Also in addition to being fattened up, I'd love to be weakened too, mostly from muscle atrophy.


I see. Not exactly the wiset thing to do, but you and I have already discussed that ad nauseum.

Speeding up gaining?

DMVGrower:
Well at the end of the day it is all about calories in and calories out right? The plateau will go away eventually, so for now just live.

Admittedly, feels weird reading as someone who has to work hard to NOT gain weight my metabolism must be screwed up.

Munchies:
It's a bit more complex than that. It's not just calories in and calories out. It's also how the body processes those calories. Also, not all calories are created equal. Some foods digest and absorb easier than others. Some people can process calories in general easier. The list goes on and on.

Here's a video that gives a better understanding of the situation.



DMVGrower:
Wow that video sure does open some questions.

Munchies:
Oh? What kinds of questions?

DMVGrower:
Well it opens up a can of worms on what might actually be right for each individual person, based on their internal gut biome. Some things may work better than others. So I am questioning what might work best for me.


The human body is beautifully complex. I strongly encourage every feedist to get a good understanding of it all. Plus, your gut biome is just one aspect of it all.

Dating app tips?

Masuli:
Female feeders are really rare but they do exist. Having been searching for a long time.

I'm hoping that you will find a feeder yourself in the future and if this feeder is female, treat her right because you have found a diamond among rocks.


Female feeders aren't all that rare. I'd wager female feeders are pretty common. However, female feeders are less likely to be active online.

If you go onto the profile's portion of FF, you will see a lot of female feeders. However, most of those accounts are hardly active.

Fattening boyfriend

Angy523:
Since I didn't add any updates lately:

He has the same weight (192-193lbs) but I don't know how because he eats less than he used to. Maybe because of lack of sleep his meatabolism slowed down and he keeps this weight (or he eats more than I know). Anyway, he seems to be happy with his new weight. He doesn't even think that he is fat anymore. He used to joke that he is fat (when he was 185 after he used to be 181) and I used to say that it's not true. Now, 8lbs later, I tell him sometimes (as a joke) that he is fat and his answer is always that he isn't. I don't say anything after that, but in my mind I always think that I'll make sure he will be


Depends on how tall he his. Might just be overweight. There's also the mucle to fat ratio to bear in mind as well.

Whatever he is, he sounds soft and cuddly.
