it’s so disappointing, that as a trans feedist, i am still dealing with so much transphobia in my dms and comments. feedism is a fetish and community that operates under unequivocal fat liberation. being a part of a fat liberated community means understanding what we are being liberated from and while this is not an exhaustive list, the main obstacle to achieving fat liberation is unlearning diet culture and removing the chains of the patriarchy. in other words, feedism is a space and community that should be free from the constraints of the patriarchy and conventional societal standards. this should be a safe space for me, not a debate forum about my sex.
but unfortunately many cis men could really give a shit about whether or not trans people feel safe in the fetish space that they seek out every day.
Potential trigger warning for: death feedism, ableism, fatphobia, eating disorders, emetophobia, body image, body checking, sex negativity, self harm, mentions of grooming/human trafficking/prostitution, zoophilia, necrophilia, raceplay (these mostly apply anecdotally to the write-in sections, which you can skip)
The canva charts are fully interactive, so you can mouse over different categories to view the labels (on some sections where they didn't fit). This presentation was designed on a laptop and is best viewed in landscape mode. You could view it with your phone on landscape but some of the text might be small. (Also I'm sorry some of the data reads as "sales" or "employees", I was using presets lmao)
Tl;dr version: feel free to skip the "write-in" sections. I tried to make this as visually appealing & legible as possible, so if you just want a brief overview of the charts, you don't need to read all of the pages in full (73). If you're interested in the entire .csv sheet, it's linked as a canva document for you to see. (Don't worry about the canva account doxxing me, it's one of many throwaway accounts, it was just convenient for the login)
Everyone who said thank you about conducting the survey, you're so welcome and I love you!! I spent hours working on this over the last week, and I read through every single result. Everyone who said this survey helped inform their opinions and came to deconstruct their internalized fatphobia, I am so glad. I'm so grateful to every one of my participants, even the one person who told me they hope I die <3
I wanted to be able to present my results in a visual, accessible way, and although I wish I didn't have to link outside of tumblr, there was no way for me to be able to embed that many images/charts in a post, so I decided on canva because of their chart features.
I had so much fun doing this and I learned a lot in the process!! I got a lot of feedback (both positive and negative) about the answers I provided for each question. My next survey project will be a survey for feedists; I'm just not sure of the precise topic. Next time I will have a more typical 1-5 "Strongly agree" to "Strongly disagree" range of answers, with less write-ins lmao. I received a lot of offers for help from professionals with statistic/analytic experience, but I feel like because my scope was limited (due to the participants being largely tumblr-based) and biased (because of the leading questions or biased phrasing) I had to do the best I could with the data. I still think I got really high quality results overall. I chose to keep write-ins as their own page for each question rather than omit them entirely or add them into other categories, which took MUCH longer than I was expecting, but I think allows for more nuance and in-depth analysis.
Feedback is more than welcome! If you have any ideas/questions you'd like to see implemented for my next survey (for example... a thesis heheh) let me know!
