Last night as I laughed at my thread about black women and their struggles on dating sites, I started thinking about the other underprivileged subset in the online female dating community - fat women.
Obviously, if you go to any dating site you're going to find a lot of fat girls. Craigslist personals is practically 90 percent fat girls. If you haven't experienced this phenomenon, I highly suggest checking out the horror for yourself. WARNING: Not for the weak of heart.
Anyway, moving on, even though these girls are obviously at a disadvantage when compared to their skinnier sisters, obviously some of them do get dates. And who is dating them?
Men who love fat girls.
Obviously these men exist, because I see some of them posting on the forum and extolling the virtue of the BBW, talking about how they love "thick" women, etc. I really hadn't thought about this before, but for these men with lower standards, these lovers of fat-bottomed girls, dating sites must really freaking rock.
Think about it. When they search for matches, they are instantly greeted by a page chock full of a good percentage of chubby prizes. And they are THRILLED. They get the same feeling the average guy gets from seeing a bunch of hot girls with thin faces on a search page. You know, that feeling you get when you see a couple of hot girls with nice cheekbones and jawlines, peeking out from the sea of BBWs? You don't get that often, but the chubby chasers get that...all the time.
And of course, it goes even further. That feeling you get when an attractive girl messages you back? The dudes who love fat women get that constantly, because fat girls love attention and are going to reply to most messages from dudes who aren't total trainwrecks. And let's not even get into the feeling you get when a hot girl actually sends the first message. Fat women LOVE to hit on guys and initiate, so for dudes who love them, they're in heaven.
The feeling of actually being pursued, being chased, instead of the reciprocal experience, must be absolutely amazing. Dating sites really must be super awesome for guys who dig the BBW. They are having the time of their lives.
And for the subset of this subset of men, namely the man whores who have several big girls on speed dial who are dishing out the booty calls every weekend, it must be like visiting a buffet. In fact, because these women are likely to pass out from exhaustion relatively quickly following intense sexual activity, nailing two or three of these broad broads must be a fairly common occurrence for connoisseurs o the thick.
And do we really have to get into how much fun dating one of these girls must be? They love to eat! What guy doesn't love to eat? Have you ever dated a girl who just sat there and picked at her food, or complained about this restaurant or that restaurant? Lame! And there are lots of girls who think they are too good for McDonalds or Wendy's. Not the BBW! Cheap dates, anyone?
I don't even want to think about how much fun dudes who love fat, black women are having. I can only compare it to the feeling a celebrity must get when he walks into a nightclub.
Is there a downside? Most definitely, the first drawing a lot of attraction from needy girls who will latch on to just about anyone who gives them consistent attention. They might just blow up your phone. But there's no such thing as a free lunch...particularly when you're taking out a fat girl!
If I watch lesbian porn, and imagine myself as one of the two chicks... does that make me gay? I guess it depends on if I imagine myself as the carpet-licker or the carpet-lickee, no? To my benefit, I'm always the pitcher, not the catcher, so I think I'm okay...

You will do great, there is no doubt. Great sacrifices reap great rewards, or something like that.
