What you need to know about the feeder relationship and how they work

THERE are many different fetishes in the world of relationships and some may be better known than others.

A fat fetish is an example of a sexual fetish and can – but not always – lead to interest in a feeder relationship.

What is a feeder relationship?

Feeder relationships are relationships that fall under the category of fat fetishism.

In a fat fetish, an individual derives sexual pleasure from the fact that their partner is overweight or obese.

Feeding relationships are unique in that they find not only the size of the body attractive, but also the journey to obesity.

According to a report in the National Library of MedicineFeederism is a “fat fetish subculture” in which individuals “eroticize weight gain and diet.”

The article further explains that feeders become sexually aroused by feeding their partners and encouraging them to gain weight, while feedees are individuals who claim to become aroused by eating, being fed and the idea or act of gaining weight come.

Most feedees are female, while feeders are usually male, although this is not always the case.

In 2018, a newly engaged couple, Rosie and Jeff, appeared on This Morning to discuss their feeder relationship.

Rosie, from Australia, revealed how she had gained 12 stone since meeting Jeff, who she connected with through a specialist website.

The pair went on to talk about how their romance works, explaining how Rosie ate larger portions than Jeff at their meals, before their evening ‘sensual’ feeding sessions.

In the interview, Rosie also spoke about her concerns about her health, saying: “If something was detrimental to my health, like diabetes, I would do something about it.

“I do all the normal things; we go for a walk, swim… as long as you have a good balance between nutrition and a healthy lifestyle.

What is fat fetishism?

Fat fetishism is a form of physical or sexual attraction for overweight or obese people.

Typically, fat fetishistic relationships are portrayed as a skinny man and a bigger woman, but there are many cases where it is the other way around.

The fat fetish community is not necessarily about promoting obesity, but rather celebrating people of all sizes and body types.

A common thread running through the community is the belief in promoting body positivity and acceptance for people of all sizes.

There are different types of fat fetishes, including feederism.

Another, for example, is a fetish for ‘squashing’.

This is when an individual is sexually attracted to the idea of ​​being crushed by a fat person or people.

According to a study by Sleep Bible1 in 14 men and 1 in 100 women have a fat fetish.

What is the feeder after?

Feeders are interested in seeing their mate gain weight and get to the size they want.

People can become nurturers because giving food is their way of expressing love or concern.

They may also enjoy being responsible for the changes in their partner’s body.

For some, it’s the idea of ​​their partner getting bigger and not the actual act that causes the arousal.
