Have any life experiences affect how you experience feedism?

Eleanorrigby:
So, personally I'm a feeder, and a firm feeder. Sometimes, the idea of mutual gaining excites me, but as someone living with a critical illness who needs an organ transplant, gaining significant weight is kind of out of the picture for me. My body doesn't tolerate caloric food very well, and I wouldn't want to put my already fragile health at further risk lol

I guess I'm just curious if anyone has a similar experience? Even if not illness, if there are any experiences or events you have or are living through that heavily affect how you perceive the fetish/kink?

I've been vegetarian basically my entire life, and I was a pretty picky eater at that so I was really skinny too. For me I wasn't really vegetarian for any moral reason, like yes the meat industry is corrupt but so is every other industry so it's not like abstaining from meat matters. Instead I just had a texture issue where literally the act of swallowing any meat product made me want to vomit. I have no idea why, but this started when I was like 7 and it still lingers to this day. I discovered in middle school that for some reason seafood doesn't trigger this reflex for me so I'd eat that occasionally. And more recently I've eaten some chicken here and there and depending on how it's cooked it doesn't trigger my gag reflex. Red meats are still entirely off the table for me, I just can't swallow them.
This has definitely impacted my ability to gain as meat is naturally high calorie. But it's just an obstacle, not a roadblock

Christianity and feedism

Oogabooga10:
You're not wrong, but in my mind it's all about moderation. I don't see a problem with something like a stuffing to be a problem, but I would prioritize a person's health. If you do too much, then your body develops conditions and such, so it's all about a balance in my point of a view. Take wine for example, you take too much and get intoxicated and throw up, but having some of fine.


I also really like the soft feedism aspect of caring/feeding someone too, and I don't think of it as a bad thing.

That's my take on feedism at least

To be fair in the original translation of the Bible gluttony was used to refer to the hoarding of resources and wealth. But in the middle ages the church was controlled by the upper class who were hoarding all the resources and wealth so it was more convenient for them to change the meaning to just "don't be fat lol". But what do I know I'm just a pagan

I want to ask people who were thin before and decided to gain weight

Viktoshka:
I want to ask people who were thin before and decided to gain weight. After you gained weight, do you regret doing it? If you don't, then share your experience of gaining weight. How did you do it?

SumoSized:
I used to be really skinny 4 years ago, I was around 125. I knew I was upset with my body and wanted to be bigger so I started with muscle. I put on around 60 lbs of muscle and decided that still wasn't doing it for me. For a while I wasn't intentionally gaining weight but I wasn't trying to lose it either. Then around mid last year I decided to fully commit and start gaining weight proper (both muscle and fat) and I've never been happier with my body and certainly have no regrets.

Viktoshka:
It's great that you've found what makes you happy! Sounds like a path to true comfort in your body. Have you achieved the shape you were aiming for, or do you have new goals?

Not yet, I'm hoping to at least get to 300 lbs maybe more. I'm just taking things step by step. I don't want to commit to gaining a certain amount of weight only to be unsatisfied with it.

Constantly full or sporadic feasts

FattenedByCirce:
Well after a few days of experimenting with what works best for my body I’ve come to a few conclusions. 1) snacking throughout the day definitely sees an increase in how many calories I’m consuming and 2) Being stuffed for an extended period can let things sneak up on you.

There's definitely benefits to both so it's not black and white. Like I said above I prefer the "grazing" approach. But stuffing is still useful especially for stretching out my stomach a little bit and increasing my appetite. Even if I do get less calories out of it

Why are people so angry at fat acceptance movements on the internet?

Bobo:
People here forget, as I do, that many, many people find body fat as repulsive as dog poop and I'm not kidding.

Kitsune:
I doubt anyone forgot how internalized fataphobia is in human society for centuries. It's more like why is it so trendy in the algorithm on social media platforms plus on YouTube these days?

It's like the Gamergate Campaign of the early 2010's when it was trendy for terminally online guys to hate feminists and gamer girls. I still remember that so-called word "Feminazi." There was even internalized misogyny with the "better than other girls" mentality which years later aged like spoiled milk.

Algorithms and social media platforms have changed the way people think, unfortunately. Red Pill content on YouTube for an example attracts the Gen-Z crowd. (which is my generation) I assure my brother born in 2007 watches that crap since he's constantly worried about the future.

Maybe the anti-fat content will die down someday and people will move on to the next new thing to detest on. Not to say that is any better, just a sad part of life. You are right though fat-hate in general isn't anything new. It's just mentally draining to see it in your own online space. It's those few reasons why I am trying to quit Reddit cold turkey.

Fatphobia is almost entry level bigotry, it starts people down a road of hating others who are different, and once one of these "red pillers" get rallied up enough they're more likely to go against other minority groups. Once you've convinced these people to dehumanize one group of people it's easier to dehumanize others in their mind

Romy:
That guy constantly wrote me private messages encouraging me to eat and keep winning. Some messages invited me to imagine eating a particular food and how good it would feel.
He was very annoying and yes, he was a stalker.
Thanks for reporting it.

Munchies:
Oh my God, I am so so sorry you had to deal with that.

For what it's worth, it seems he deleted his profile.

Still, to reiterate things, it is your choice to do whatever you want with your body. You chose to work on being healthier. Yes, you are struggling, but that does not mean you gave up. Nor does it mean that you are a failure who should eat herself to death.

If nothing else, this has shown you have a lot of people in this community who support you.

It looks like munchies was right, he did pull the cowards deletion. I'm sorry you've had to deal with all his shit Romy, I hope this won't make dent on your weight loss journey. It's only been a month since you first pledged to lose some weight, and I know you've had some setbacks. But you will make progress sooner than you think, good luck on your journey and please remember there are more people routing for you than against you, and the people against you should be ignored

Too fat for feeders but too fit for feeders?

Morbidly A Beast:
Also in my experience it seems straight ffa’s are more into already fat guys as opposed to ones who are skinny or want to become fat, i could stand corrected on this but it seems to be the general consensus

Munchies:
There are a good chunk of FFAs who prefer a "blank slate" so to speak. A thin man that they can fatten as much as they'd like. And then there are FFAs like me that don't care about the start weight.

MottiF:
I wish I could meet ffa in person 🥺

Munchies:
Question. Why do you keep necroposting? This is something you've been doing a lot lately. You'll go on these posting binges where you'll reply to really old threads. This one is a year old, but I've seen you go even older.

What's up with that?

JN_TumLover56:
It sounds like this fellow must be quite a fan of you! Unless of course he’s trying to outrank you in the top posters. Perhaps a bragging right?

Munchies:
Idk if he is a fan of mine, but we are on friendly terms.

As for the top posting spot, I don't really care. The more people who post, the better. In my ideal situation, I would not be the chattiest person on here.

But it's more like ... why necropost when you can make a new post? You feel me?

Anonko:
What does necroposting mean, I'm genially curious

(Also on the topic of the forum I think judging by starting weight is stupid, especially since I've found myself being veryyy weary of people who are on these sites and just catfish)

Munchies:
Necroposting is when you revive a long inactive thread. For example, posting on a thread where the last post was six months or more ago.

It's considered an internet faux pas. The general consensus is if you come across an old thread and want to contribute to it, make a new thread based on the topic. Maybe link to the old thread as needed.

Because honestly it seems like a lot of people create accounts and then leave so a lot of people on the original discussion aren't even on the platform anymore.

imma be honest fellas i only really signed up here for lurking yet this hedonistic purity guy has been so fucking godawful that i, a lone 21 year old lurker from North Yorkshire who does't even talk anywhere on here, am stepping in to say "Romy clearly does not want to be involved in death feedism. she's gotten herself into a rather difficult predicament, and it's clear she's at a point where she wants to get out of this difficult predicament"

honestly who the hell goes up to a clearly struggling online person and says "i'm so proud of you!" in response to their struggles? fucking disgusting.

anyway this will probably be the only post i make on this forum, good day.

Munchies:
I'm not, actually. This whole thing started when you told a woman struggling with an eating disorder to keep eating despite knowing this would kill her.

You wished for this woman's death despite her making it very clear she is not a death feedee.

And when several people told you to leave her alone, you persisted. That is harassment. Do you think I reported you for harassing me? I reported you for harassing her.

We women have to look out for each other because men like you make it dangerous for us.

I am grateful that two other men stepped up to defend her, too. Because that shows that you are the one being the problem. This isn't a case of some overly sensitive woman not understanding how men are. This is a you being a creep thing.

Be better.

One of the most beautiful parts of this community is the idea that you can change your body however you see fit. In my case, I'm going for a muscle chub look, and while it's not the most common body type on here it's what I want for myself, and no one can convince me otherwise. And so I've set soft limits for myself, I don't want lose my mobility. I don't mind if it's reduced but I don't want it gone completely.
Romy has already achieved and surpassed her goals, she has the right to decide where she wants to take her body next. The difference between munchies, myself, and hell even enas is that we are trying to support her very difficult decision, while you are trying to run counter to it. You have no right to cheer for her downfall, Romy made one misstep on what's going to be a very long weight loss journey. She needs support not heckling
