Fat4fat romance. Fat girl fat boy romance. Big girl meets big girl. Plus size x plus size romance.
I google various terms to find what I want. I get zero. Doesn't the internet have everything and anything? During my search, I come acrosss several lists that purport to have the best romance with fat, big, plus-size women. Book one has a slim love interest, so do books two to 21.
I search bbw x bbm romance. The first link is Pornhub. I click "Bbw Bbm Porn videos" out of curiosity (into an incognito tab). I click past the age verification--yes I am older than 18. "Do you mean bbw bbc?" asks the website. The first video is of a black man and a white woman. Neither is fat.
We never see fat people in love with each other. It's always a fat woman with a slim, tall, jacked jock or a fat man with a slender, svelte, petite (although sometimes taaaall) cheerleader if the characters are teenagers (I'm not american, so I've never actually seen a jock or cheerleader irl but you get the concept. Replace it with the popular person trope closest to your culture). If they are no longer in school, the love interest could be a model, a singer, a superior worker, etc, but they are always popular and slim. Even when the romance is queer, the love interest of the fat person is popular and slim. Media doesn't matter either. Whether it's a tv, movie, book, or comic, fat people only end up with slim people. Not slimmer people, but slim.
I know that we already rarely get romances with fat people, but it would be nice to have more variety in love interests. At the beginning, I was simply happy to have fat people fall in love (speaking as a fat woman who has been single forever) but the fact that these were the only types of romances started to grate at me.
It started to feel as if the only reason fat people were worthy of love was because they had been 'uplifted' by the affection, attention, and acceptance of a conventionally attractive, socially acceptable beauty.
Now, I don't think that the individual writers of this stories are trying to say the only way we can be acceptable is by the love of the 'right' one (at least I hope not) but when the only type of romances with fat people is curvy girl gets jock/buff billionaire/cheerleader/ceo/actress/movie star, you begin to get the opposite message they intend because surely if being fat is not a detriment to love, we would have love interests who were fat.
When the only time a fat person in a story falls in a love, it is with a slim person, it makes me feel that even other fat people think that being fat is ugly. That they feel like it makes sense for people to be repulsed by fat, to seek slimness in their life even if it comes from their partner, to only feel accepted if their person is the most conventionally hot person imaginable and only with the blessing of such a person can their self worth be measured.
This impacts me because I thought/think/struggle not to think like this. I fall into this habit in my writing as well, and I worry about the people I'm attracted to being judged as being too fat or too ugly. Part of me fantasises about being seen as desirable by the proverbial 10. And yet, I'm also attracted to people like myself. Fat and short and ordinary. Where are the romances like that?
I come reading these books and watching these shows to see people like me being happy and in love and leave feeling unwanted and sad. And worst, pitied. Humoured by the book/film/tv that's meant to empower me.
And that's why I no longer read romances with fat people. At least with skinny people, there's a sense of separation from myself. But curvy romance rolls out a welcome mat for me and when I enter, the floor creaks with every step as if to say, "You're too fat, you're too fat."

everyone who is not currently in the process of moving please pause and take a moment to be grateful that you're not currently in the process of moving
The loumand failmarriage only gets more insane with every reveal I'm actually obsessed with it. Like basically Louis was a kind of shitty boyfriend to Armand (wouldn't commit to being his companion, was still hung up on his ex who he killed and who he was hallucinating the whole time they were dating) and Armand responded to this proportionally by colluding with his coven to have him and his daughter and his daughter's girlfriend publicly executed, and he spent ages making all the fun little projector animations for it and probably had a whole mock trial aesthetic moodboard and everything. But then Louis' ex who ISN'T dead teams up with his ex to get revenge on his other ex who tried to kill him, but he changes his mind halfway through the trial and makes sure Louis survives, and both him and Louis get turbo trauma by seeing their daughter killed horribly in front of them. Then Louis is mad at BOTH of them, because he thinks Lestat is why Claudia got killed, and because he thinks Armand just stood by and let the trial happen, but he can't just be single because he's got turbo grief and also the best revenge on Lestat is fucking Lestat's ex, so they get married and IMMEDIATELY fucking hate each other. Louis never loved Armand and was only with him out of spite and out of grief. Armand is trapped in this insane lie that could fall apart at any moment; he chose his coven over Louis but then Louis fucking killed them all so he's stuck with Louis. And of course they're both miserable, and so Louis immediately starts fucking (and killing) other men - nearly 200 by the time he meets Daniel Molloy. And Armand initially takes out his repressed anger about this on Louis' new toy but then it turns out, huh, maybe this toy is actually kind of compelling? So whenever Louis cheats on him he goes and stalks Daniel Molloy for enrichment, and now they're BOTH in love with someone else while still pretending they're in love. And then that beaten up chew toy that keeps fucking up his life and fucking dubious twinks in cars is old and about to die so Louis invites him over to tell him his life's story/kill him finally/turn him?/sabotage his marriage for him, and Armand does sexy servant roleplay, and Louis offers to turn Daniel/have sex with him right in front of Armand who is deeply in love with him, and Armand tries to gaslight him back and puts the Steins in with his photographs. And then it turns out that shitty old man is actually a decent reporter and the marriage unravels and they're both FREE but this is very much not actually good for either of them or for society at large!
Oh and during ALL OF THIS they were fucking like crazy doing extremely not sane and safe BDSM.

if you spoke to lestat or louis about your pain, they would say, "your pain? what about MY pain?" but if you spoke about your pain to armand he would say "let me lobotomize you and you will never feel pain again." he has a solution-based mindset and we could all learn from him.
What does Armand think of this little number like, 'having a lot of rules for a theatre kid'?
ASSAD: A theatre kid that [Lestat] made, basically!
Right?!
ASSAD: You made me into a theatre kid, the fuck are you talking about? I didn't choose that life, that life chose me! And you [Lelio-stat] were that theatre kid before I found my way in it.
there could absolutely not have been a better way to watch the finale than it leaking two days early in unwatchable quality and trying desperately to avoid spoilers but clearly seeing that everyone on tumblr HATES it...
...only to finally sit down to watch it (in proper quality) and it being fucking INCREDIBLE, and UNHINGED, and EMOTIONAL, scored so brilliantly i CRIED, and basically everything i ever want from this show times a million.
thank you to everyone involved in creating this series, thank you to these brilliant actors, and thank you to the haters -- i don't understand your hate, but seeing your reactions inadvertently made this watching experience utterly sublime. 💃🏾

free use is kind of a funny kink bc it relies on the idea that everybody wants to touch you and have sex with you but what if they don't. what if you tell everybody at the party you're free use but they all ignore you and mind their own business
#if they don't like being called bin chickens then they should stay out of the bins
I'm sure they would LOVE to do that but unfortunately we turned their habitats into cities and farms so now they gotta look for other places where their long beaks specialised to dip into muck and water looking for tasty crustaceans can be put to use finding them food.
Assad Zaman: There’s something about Armand when he’s not being observed that I took [from the books]. I think if you know the books you know that he’s… the specific alien quality about… when you’re in stasis, you’re almost on standby. Statuesque. You’re unable to emote or think anything because everything you do is shaped on either being obsessed with someone, manipulating someone, or trying to survive your trauma in someway. What do those people do when they’re not being observed? The way Anne Rice describes Armand, several times, is sort of this ethereal, alien quality that doesn’t quite feel like it’s… She called it childish, but I don’t see it as childish. I see it more as like an alien that’s unable to understand himself, his own needs[?], only able to play a part. So when there’s no one to see them, they kind of just go a little bit dead, soulless, that kind of thing. That’s something that I took on, tried to.
