Hands up: who has heard of feederism?

In a nutshell, if you get turned on feeding your partner large quantities of food … if, in fact, it turns you on to watch your partner gain large amounts of weight … then you might be a feeder.

Feederism is different from simply being attracted to overweight or obese people.  Instead, this fetish focuses on the consuming of large amounts of food and the weight gain such consumption entails.

Similar to S/M, there is a dominant partner, the feeder, and a submissive partner, the feedee.  In more extreme examples, the feedee can become so obese that he/she is completely dependent on the feeder.

The Australian movie “Feed” (2005) explores the dark extremes of feederism.  In it, a detective investigates a man who force-feeds women until they become so obese that their bodies can’t cope.  Although reviews of the film were mixed, most viewers recommended it for the shocking focus on a little-known sexual taboo.

On a lighter note, the online community Fantasy Feeder provides a place for feeders and feedees to hook up, share stories, exchange pictures, and chat.  The website includes tips on how to make fattening meals, how to identify where you fit in the world of food fetishes, and how to stay fit even if you’re fat.  You can even watch flash animations of fat women jiggling or gaining weight.

The Dimensions Weight Room is another popular resource for people interested in “weight gain fiction and fantasies.”  It includes articles, stories, and a chat room.  You’ll find out the best sexual positions for fat folks, the best fat music, and tips on how to gain weight.
