Okay, so I was searching around on Deviantart, stalking some of my favorite artists as I ususally do and searching for cute poses I may be able to reference from.
I typed 'friends' in on the search and this picture came up:
http://koudelka2005.deviantart.com/a...iends-41623885
To say the least, I was disgusted D:
Read some of the comments too.
Here's what I don't get:
What is with the guy's obsession with obese women?
I'm not bashing on anyone who is heavier, I'm a tad bit on the voluptious side myself, but still.
I wanted to gag myself with a spork D:
Someone please explain this to me xD
Thanks <3

Well people have different turn ons. I'm glad someone is attracted to morbidly obese people, because I'm not. I don't really see anything wrong with it as long as they aren't encouraging people to be unhealthy just so they are better for them to look at.

oh my gosh thats horrible! *covers self in oil and lights self on fire screaming and running in circles*

I'm glad I'm not the only person who wants to do that D:

Hm, that's different. XD
I'm not going to challenge what people like,
but it's unhealthy for them to be that big, we all know that part. ^__^;

I don't know.. but anyone that big would scare even me. And Im very obese.. D'x
But anyway.. some people like really skinny unhealthy people. ._.
Just preference I guess. ._.

I mean, it's ok if people want to look like that.I mean, if they are morbidly obese, but happy the way they are, then that's great. I saaw in a magazine this one Women who was like 300-400 pounds, but she was on the runway modeling langerie. So if people like that, that's great.

It all seems like more of a joke than a serious artwork/turn-on.
Or maybe that's just how I perceive it, but it just doesn't seem very serious...

Hmm... I've heard of this before. xD I believe when people fanart of characters being morbidly obese, it's called inflation? I'm not sure if it's just for fanart, or if it's a general term, though...

I wouldn't think bad about anyone who likes something like that, but... for me, I wouldn't. It weirds me out a little. xD;

Oh lol, Ive seen that before too. I guess its an art, like how people draw REALLY skinny girls, there can also be the REALLY obese girls too. Maybe prefrence? Like ying and yang : D Its just a beautiful thing, dont cha think?

OMG. That has to be one of the most disturbing things I've seen. XD WTF. I'm trying to figure out if those comments were jokes or serious. The artist's profile seems to be serious in that he likes grossly fat women. Which to me is just gross. I mean, I feel bad for fat people. Especially people who are the size of the people in the drawings. That is horrible for that to happen to anyone. It's just nasty. I would think it would be so awful and uncomfortable to have your body be so huge and rolling. How do people like that move at all? I mean, it's one thing to not judge someone by their appearance, and to love someone for who they are and not what they look like. But that is just going too far. People like that need help, because they are going to die. I don't know how anyone can be turned on by that, and honestly, I don't know how anyone that huge could even function physically in a relationship. It disgusts me to even think about it. D:

Vickicat...
Please don't say such things. You're pretty much flaming obese people right there.
Yes, I'm sure it is uncomfortable, and they di beed help, but that is not something to say.
I didn't really want people's opinions...
I just wanted someone to make an attemtpt to explain to me why a man would draw someone like that, then make such comments about it...

You're so right! That is disgusting. I'm a big girl myself, but not THAT big. These days if you are a size fourteen then you are considered obese. That picture shows more than that though. That is seriously unhealthy. I read the comments, and I have known men who wanted women that size. To each his own.

This signature on one of the people commenting really grabbed my attention though. Check this out : "There are big women in the world, and there are BIG women in the world. Me I like the OMGHOWISTHATPOSSIBLE big. ^_^" How 'bout those apples?

I'm not trying to flame, I'm saying I feel bad for people like that. I think that that is a horrible thing to happen to anyone because it is just so awful, and I don't see how it could be attractive. It is not a good thing for anyone to be like that, and I'm just stating the truth about it. People should really do something before they get that bad off. We're not talking about people who are somewhat overweight here, I wouldn't ever say something about someone who has a bit of a weight problem, a lot of people do. We're talking about people who are so huge that it will probably kill them. You yourself said you wanted to gag yourself with a fork, if that isn't offensive then how is anything I said offensive?

i have nothing against obese people but that picture did kinda freak me out
the picture was very artistic though

i saw a thing on the jerry springer show of this skinny dude that cheated on his huge girlfriend for her mother who was 3 times as big
it was funny to see them fight on the floor but at the same time gross

not that i have anything against people of this size for its whats inside that counts

as far as your question goes i guess people like different things whereas i like taller slightly built male some may like sort more obese males

its entirely up to the person

Mmhmm... just 'cause I prefer my boys lean doesn't mean someone else won't prefer them chubby (or more), right? xD Personal preference, 's how it goes.

Yes, it's called inflation. I for one can't see why some guys like such obese women, it grosses me out, but who am I to say they have no taste, just because I think it's wrong?

Well people have different Fetishes..
Some people love the Fat look, just as most people like the thin look.
I personally can't see why someone would like someone so big..but I mean, if you think about it, why would someone like someone thats stick-skinny? Skinny is also unhealthy and stuff..just Media Influenced. :3

I~ agree with you, Teeth. xD Like you said, whereas being that big is bad for you, so is being stick thin. ...Though, it makes me wonder whether being huge is worse than being so anorexic, you're barely skin and bones. Hmm. o3o

I really think people should just go for a healthy median... I mean, hey, there's nothing bad about someone who's a healthy weight, right? xD

Um, people can prefer that too xD Hmm, maybe its looked down upon also? Damn media!

Oh, no, wasn't saying that people don't prefer it at all - but a lot of the time, people are obsessed with thin people, or with being thin. I think the media really did do a good job on making a general image of what people should consider 'pretty'.

That's why I stay away from Deviant ART.

It's hard to separate the cool kids from the loony toons.

People like what they like, and they have the grounds to do so and not be jumped at for it. :3

I mean, why are they crazy for liking something that isn't healthy or normal?

Ive met people who love smoking women, are they as "crazy" as he is?
Are you crazy for liking what you like?
No?
Case in point.

There has to be a lover for everyone <3

Inflation is different from "fat adoration", although often people who like one like the other. "Fat adoration" can range from chubbiness to morbid obesity (and then to unrealistic obesity), while inflation is becoming inflated, typically with a kind of gas but sometimes with liquid.

Basically, when taken to their limits, in "fat adoration" stories and artwork the girl's a lumpy mound of flesh; in inflation, she's a hot air balloon.

And whoever thought the deviantart pic was a joke...there are entire websites dedicated to this sort of thing. :lol:
