The fat fetish, or “feederism” as it is sometimes called, is an unusual subculture that celebrates larger bodies. People who find sexual or emotional satisfaction in the weight and bodily mass of their relationships are particularly susceptible to this sort of obsession, which entails the adoration of overweight individuals.
Social media and dating services catering to this subculture’s inclination provide a judgment-free zone where people with similar interests can meet and build meaningful relationships.
While the general public might not agree with this desire, those who practice feederism see it as an expression of body positivity, believing that people of all shapes and sizes can be beautiful.
