I posted on Donna Simpson here, in 2010
"Woman Wants to be the World's Largest Woman"
I am glad she is leaving the 'feedee" lifestyle and is focusing on getting healthy for the sake of her children. I hope for the best for her. I think it is good she realized what the price of all that weight gain was. I have talked about the implications of the "feeder" world as a fetish and how it harms the women caught up in it.
Here on her new blog, she talks about leaving it behind. Good for her. I will keep her in my prayers.
She writes:
"Now that I have sole responsibility of taking care of my children, I must drastically change my lifestyle. Most people see me as a woman who became famous for wanting to gain weight while the rest of the world was trying to slim down. This was true as I was in a relationship that was based on a fetish that exists only in a fantasy."
Here is her other blog.
I really don't understand "feederism." How can that be "sexy?"
ReplyDeleteIt's hard enough fighting an eating disorder plus having an endocrine problem and being fat. And then you find out about things like this. It really makes me scratch my head. I'm honestly not trying to be judgmental. I just really don't get it.
I don't get feederism either. It is pretty gross, one of those horrible things I discovered in the size acceptance world and they condone this sort of thing, in many FA circles, and what is worse, is a some of the feederism is definitely tied to abuse and control of women. These predator type men, want women who are dependent on them and having the woman being so large she can't even move is one of their creepy fetishes. I wonder if that is what Donna Simpson faced in the man she ended up leaving. I am glad she got out and in her case she has children to watch out for and take care of. One thing very fat women can face is very unhealthy relationships, they are more prone to it, because the average healthy guy is looking for someone healthy like himself. Fat women can find some decent men, but I often have told fat women run as far as they can from these circles in size acceptance. I don't like to be judgemental either but this feederism stuff does promote bad things...greed, overeating for pleasure, and control issues.
