š©·šš¤ feedism is morally neutral

The Beauty, Liberation, and Healing Potential of Feedism
Last year I wrote a popular article about why the thin partners of fat people owe them not just their respect, care, and affection, but indeed they - we - owe them solidarity. A lot of that article is spent laying out the bigotry that fat people face in the world on a daily basis and trying to make it clear how thin people like myself can be good to the fat folks we want to be with, whether thatās sexually, romantically, or otherwise.
In many ways that article was really a prelude to something else Iāve wanted to write about for quite some time. I and many others are militant that being attracted to fat people is not a fetish. Depending on who you ask, itās a preference or an orientation, but not something that deserves nearly the amount of hand-wringing it gets.Ā
However.
Being attracted to fat people is the ticket to entry to a larger world of kink and fetish-play that extends far beyond vanilla sex that happens to involve a fat body.Ā
Beneath the horrors of anti-fat bigotry and the beauty of relationships with or between fat people, is an entire world of sex and sexuality that centres on fatness above and beyond beautiful bodies. I have been working on this article for quite some time, but in particular with @fatliberation's recent post about feedism, I want to talk about that - and how I think it offers unique opportunities for healing.
public service announcement to every plus-sized person in the chat:
you don't owe anyone an explanation for your body or your health
being fat isn't a moral failing deserving of judgment
you don't owe anyone self-shame or weight loss just to be loved and accepted
your health isn't solely defined by your weight
you deserve proper healthcare that doesn't reduce you to a number on a scale
you deserve to take care of your health in whatever way you need without being judged for trying
life is too short to not enjoy good food
life is WAY too short to care what other people think
just because other people want you to feel bad for being fat doesn't mean you should
you deserve to feel sexy and beautiful in your body without being reduced to a fetish or told that you're fetishizing fatness
you deserve to take pride in your body without being accused of 'promoting unhealthy lifestyles'
you deserve to date whoever the hell you want without judgment
you deserve to love yourself and your body without being called vain
you deserve to take selfies and share pictures of yourself without people commenting on your body
you deserve to have standards for yourself and how you're treated
you deserve to do what makes you happy and healthy without others turning you into a political statement or a social martyr
you're allowed to have flaws and quirks and personality traits that aren't attributed to your weight
there is no such thing as a "perfect fat person" and you certainly aren't responsible for setting that example
you are loved and you deserve to exist without apology or explanation
the world is better with you in it and that is not up for debate

an alternate universe variation of āmy 600 lb lifeā thatās about how awesome it is to be completely spoiled and do nothing but eat all day
they have a point though. you wouldn't need everyone to accommodate you if you just lost weight, but you're too lazy to stick to a healthy diet and exercise. it's that simple. I'd like to see you back up your claims, but you have no proof. you have got to stop lying to yourselves and face the facts
Must I go through this again? Fine. FINE. You guys are working my nerves today. You want to talk about facing the facts? Let's face the fucking facts.
In 2022, the US market cap of the weight loss industry was $75 billion [1, 3]. In 2021, the global market cap of the weight loss industry was estimated at $224.27 billion [2].Ā
In 2020, the market shrunk by about 25%, but rebounded and then some since then [1, 3] By 2030, the global weight loss industry is expected to be valued at $405.4 billion [2]. If diets really worked, this industry would fall overnight.Ā

Over 50 years of research conclusively demonstrates that virtually everyone who intentionally loses weight by manipulating their eating and exercise habits will regain the weight they lost within 3-5 years. And 75% will actually regain more weight than they lost [4].

Doctors became so desperate that they resorted to amputating parts of the digestive tract (bariatric surgery) in the hopes that it might finally result in long-term weight-loss. Except that doesnāt work either. [6] And it turns out it causes death [7],Ā addiction [8], malnutrition [9], and suicide [7].

Fatness was associated with only 1/3 the associated deaths that previous research estimated and being āoverweightā conferred no increased risk at all, and may even be a protective factor against all-causes mortality relative to lower weight categories [19].

Studies have observed that about 30% of so-called ānormal weightā people are āunhealthyā whereas about 50% of so-called āoverweightā people are āhealthyā. Thus, using the BMI as an indicator of health results in the misclassification of some 75 million people in the United States alone [20].Ā

While epidemiologists use BMI to calculate national obesity rates (nearly 35% for adults and 18% for kids), the distinctions can be arbitrary. In 1998, the National Institutes of Health lowered the overweight threshold from 27.8 to 25ābranding roughly 29 million Americans as fat overnightāto match international guidelines. But critics noted that those guidelines were drafted in part by the International Obesity Task Force, whose two principal funders were companies making weight loss drugs [21].

I canāt put into words how dispiriting it is to watch all these plus size idols, celebrities, drag queens thin. The body positive movement wasnāt perfect, but we had made some progress. I watched Lizzo dance and flute in front of me and near cried. Watched mid-fat girls flourish in their new comfortable bodies now that they could breathe. Watched plus-size drag queens show they too could be sexy and not just a joke.
But Ozempic and weight loss drugs have snatched people up one by one. For every one thereās some reason itās justified (oh, they did the work, oh but they might be pre diabetic, oh well they might need it though). Or thereās a celeb who lies about not taking it then admits they have.
And for every one of those, thereās a kid or woman watching who thinks itās just supposed to be that easy to lose weight. Who thinks thereās something wrong with her if she canāt shed her body.
Itās the understudied weight loss drug of our generation, no different from the pills of before. In 20, 30 years weāll be talking about all the side effects or failures and it will be a shame.
But that wonāt come before a generation of young girls, boys, kids have to endure the big back jokes and Ozempic commercials and the internalization of the idea that skinny is healthy and skinny is what we should be and skinny is what is natural, and all big-boned and bodied girls could be skinny and happier and somehow better tomorrow if they just had the money and the prescription.
Anyway, go read some Aubrey Gordon and Kate Manne, please please please. Educate yourselves about fatness & fatphobia and be kind to yourselves and each other.
Nothing like holding my love
I feel like this is something that doesn't need to be said yet I will say it and continue to say it regularly

thereās no way this could ever be studied, but iām very interested in what percentage of poor health outcomes for fat people could stem from stressors in the form of just not fitting well into regular society and things like that, rather than their body just not being able to function as it is.
likeāsomeone that has to consider whether or not theyāll fit into a bus/plane, worrying about whether or not their doctor will listen or blame their weight, who has to take the extra step every single day just to find something to wearāis under more stress than any comparably thinner person. that undoubtedly has a huge part in how fat people are āunhealthyā
Be sure to check out the book: "The Fat Studies Reader" (Rothblum & Solovay, 2009)! It discusses: fat studies in health and medicine (objective, not biased against fat persons); historical construction of fatness; fatness and social inequality; sizeism in popular culture, and the ways that queer people counter it; embodying and embracing fatness and fat sexuality; and how we can 'start the revolution'.
Feedism as a way to reconnect with your body in recovery from an eating disorder
Feedism as a way to say fuck you to the government and racist/misogynistic beauty standards
Feedism as a way to meet your gender transition goals
Feedism as a way to connect with your partner
Feedism as a way to show love and pleasure to your body
Feedism for the sake of sex, art, food
Feedism for its own sake bc feedism is morally neutral!
