But what happened to the posts, Max? I'm mildly confused...

This ^^ If I could stay stuffed constantly, I would. In a heartbeat. Nothing comes close to how great a reeeeally stuffed belly feels.

Ok. I may get in trouble here, but I think that all FAs, regardless of gender, object choices, etc., simply need to make a habit of telling people they find attractive that they do. The only counter to not believing you're attractive is repeated messages to the contrary (and maybe some therapy/counselling). Consider the awkwardness of doing this and the discomfort of bad responses as your way of sharing the burdens we live w as fat folk.
As Ghandhi said, be the change you wish to see.

As an FFA and mutual gainer, the problem I've encountered several times is that guys *say* they're mutual gainers, but when the time comes, they turn out to be FA gainers. Its been disappointing.

@OP: I think you'd find lots of company in the extreme weight gain forum.

One of my childhood--and still--faves is cream cheese and olives. I like the sweet tinned ones best, but also salty oil-cured wrinkly ones are great, too.
There are more kinds of sandwich bread in the US that I miss, like poppy seed kaiser rolls, especially crusty ones, but there are some wild local kinds of bread here, like stotties, that really rock.

Even when my live-out partner needs help tying his shoes, it's hot. It only happens when he's overly full or achy from something, but still. Yum.
My dream would be to be that fat together. I know, rare, and difficult to manage in practice. But a girl can dream... *looks off wistfully*

In this aspect, we're fighting ourselves as much as we are society. Its not enough for most people to be fat, especially when governments will decree it as an "epidemic" like we are a plague which needs to be wiped out. We need to show the world that fat is as normal a variation in humans as tall or short or black or white.
I think this is what we should be focusing more on in the fight for fat acceptance, not "there are lots of us so you got to put up with us" it should be more "There is nothing wrong with us, we are as normal as anyone else so stop making out that we are some blight on humanity"

You're quite right, Max. Beautifully put.
I do think that numbers matter, but you're correct that until we figure out how to get currently and future fat people to feel ok about their size, there is no movement. But all movements have to deal with internalised self-hatred--it is in some ways the biggest problem any identity-based movement faces.
Perhaps we should start a new thread? It's a good idea, Max. Why don't you?

I have cut off friendships the way you did, Marshmellow. Almost never, but it has happened.
I think some things are so bad that you can't forgive them. I wouldn't punish anyone for saying such things, but I have very little time in this life, and I don't share it wantonly, and especially not with cruel people.
