Lily being taunted… by herself?!

This was such a hard piece to do, I want to work more with cell shading. I’m aware cleaner line art will bring it together, but the organic feeling of the brush I like using is too good!

I think maybe I’m a little bit chubby. Just a smidge 😇

Been a while 🥰

wanna bet that my ass is more than twice the size of your head?

Please, please be considerate of your fat friends' needs and limitations. Fat bodies are heavy to carry around. I move about the world slower than my thin peers, and I've often had to choose between pushing myself to keep a pace that takes absolutely all my energy, or being left behind, when walking in a group. I don't always feel safe to ask that everyone walk slower, because there's a prevalent idea in society that fat people need to exert themselves as much as possible at all times in the service of weight loss, and that we never "really" need rest, therefore it's a good thing whenever we're exhausted. Fat people and thin people alike are taught that fatness is a flaw, one that fat people ourselves are to blame for, so we're not entitled to any accommodation or consideration. A friend of mine who is fat recently told me about a dinner party she went to where the chairs were far too small for her and she was sitting very uncomfortably. After the meal she politely suggested moving the party to the couch, but the others didn't want to. She spent another couple of hours in unnecessary pain, and didn't dare tell them about it. I love my thin friends, but some of them just don't realize that I weigh probably twice as much as them, and yet I balance it all on the same size feet and carry it on about the same size bones. I'm like if they had a whole other them to carry around at all times. Why would that not have an impact on how I function? Please - take us into consideration when we're part of activities. Ask us which activities work and which don't. Adjust the pace so no one has to be dry heaving and sweating barrels on what's supposed to be a casual walk. Make sure venues have seating that fits us. Make it safe for us to speak up if we need something. When we do, don't treat us like we're the problem. Finally: yes, we have heard of losing weight. Even those of us who might (and many never will, whether you like it or not), won't do it on a moment's notice. If your response to "fat people deserve accommodations" is "what if they weren't fat though", you're playing a fantasy game. It's pointless. We are fat and we are here and we do partake in society. Work with that.

Do yo ever feel alone and like you always have to hide from friends and family? Does your kink ever make you wish you were "normal"? I surely feel these things and I am very sad.

This is a common feeling for a lot of people, so I want you to understand that you're not alone, but also understand that it's not something you should continue allowing yourself to feel! A fetish can be extremely intimate since it's so closely tied to sexuality, personal history, etc. but feeling like you have to hide or be alone because of it is very unhealthy.

I recommend starting by trying to break down the stigma around weight gain and fetishes. EVERYONE has kinks and fetishes and niche interests that they like to keep hidden. And feedism/tummy love is actually a VERY common fetish! Trust me, as a feedism model I can guarantee you that I've gotten way more attention both on/offline as a 300+ lb person than I ever did when I was thin. It's not inherently dirty or wrong to be attracted to fat people or to want to be fat for your own sexual/personal fulfillment.

Try looking into fat politics more! Read up on biases surrounding fatness and weight gain and how that may be impacting your mental wellbeing. Do the work to unlearn what's been pushed onto you and in time you'll start to feel more comfortable speaking outwardly about fatphobia and how being fat/fatness is beautiful. At some point things will start to click for you and you can feel more at ease both with yourself, and with talking to others about your interests! This isn't to say that you should broadcast bluntly your fetishes and what turns you on, but being able to join in on those kinds of conversations when they happen can be really wonderful with building community with your friends!

Again, you are normal. Liking fat bodies (your own or others) is normal. Having fetishes is normal! It's up to you to destigmatize things and unlearn the fatphobia and puritanical ideology that's holding you back from feeling connected to others.

As a fat feedist with friends/family/community that know all about what I do for a living and why I gained so much weight, I promise it's possible to live without shame.
