Fat liberation is important to me. this doesn't mean that you can't play with any of these ideas, but living as a fat person doesn't exist without this context. (Disabled rights/accessibility are also related.)

be nice. i will not respond to hate mail. questions & feedback are appreciated, though! you can also send them to strawpage if you don't want to use tumblr for some reason.

Recently I heard someone refer to feedism as "glorifying an eating disorder". As someone who's a feedist, this bothered me and I wanted to hear your thoughts about this take.

it bothered me too. 🫂💔 people say that all the time and it’s extremely harmful and offensive, especially to those of us who actually have struggled with real eating disorders. I guess they must be equating stuffing & fullness play to binge eating disorder? which demonstrates a lack of understanding of both BED and kink. stuffing does not meet the criteria for BED. it’s disordered when the following is present:

a. the sense of lack of control over eating during the episode (e.g., a feeling that one cannot stop eating or control what or how much one is eating)

b. feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty after overeating

c. eating alone because of being embarrassed by how much one is eating

d. marked distress regarding binge eating is present.

as opposed to a stuffing being planned, the feedee is completely in control, they are safe and calm, enjoying the sensations of taste and touch, feeling sexy, proud, aroused, comforted, validated, etc., often with the love and aftercare from their scene partner.

and guess what! a lot of feedists don’t like stuffings at all. shocker.

of course there are feedists who have a complicated relationship with their kink because of their eating disorder. I’ve also heard from countless feedists that practicing kink is actually a way of healing from their eating disorder. I know feedists who have never had problems with food or body image at all because of the positive feelings brought to them by their kink.

experiences are not universal! we are diverse because we are human!

There's a thing that official BED criteria leaves out. It's not an eating disorder if there is no restriction going on.

This is not a common take on BED. The fact that people with BED restrict (or have experienced chronic food insecurity) is overlooked by most medical professionals and the folks who have the disorder themselves. But if you take the time to look at folks in this situation (like i was), we try to restrict our eating and then react to that restriction with bingeing. The bingeing itself is not the disordered part. That's our bodies reacting to restriction by increasing our hunger and cravings, because our bodies are trying to protect us from calorie deprivation.

Recovering from any eating disorder means allowing ourselves to eat as much as we want, whenever we want. If we want to eat past the point of fullness, that is fine and healthy. "Bingeing" is not a bad word. It's diet culture that teaches people that it's bad, not any kind of health consequence.

correct!!! thanks for this addition!

#yeah like. ‘stuffing’ even though it’s kink is no different than choosing to eat past fullness at your fave restaurant bc it’s so yummy.

Because there were "concerns" about me gaining at a slow pace and being active like "oh she wants to be a healthy feedee" I kinda wanna adress something.

I feel its utterly misplaced to bring in terms like "healthy feedee" into the feedism community, because all it does is echoing the fatphobia we all experience in everyday society. It's even worse putting "healthy feedees" at the top of a supposed hierarchy inside feedism.

On top of that Health is immensely subjective and not something you can judge from the outside based on the fetish content we post and its not something you are allowed to have control over.

Being a very active feedee is valid. Being a very lazy feedee is valid. Gaining slow is valid. Gaining rapidly is valid. Gaining a lot is valid. Gaining little is valid. Going for immobility and deathfeedism is valid.

Feedees alone decide how they want to gain, how they want to live, what consequences they endure, what consequences they don't endure.

I for one am not "active" because i want to be a "healthy feedee" or "good fatty". I am active because my work, my hobbies, my partners enable it and I enjoy the things we do. I'll likely be less active at a point because I decided something is more important to me.

Maybe just enjoy the ride with us, wherever it takes us?
