Are heavy women more into tickling then thin women?

[Elf_Song]

I can kind of relate

I am underweight myself (105 lbs at 5'2") and I know how incredibly hard it is to gain when you need to. I also get approached by people damn near every day at work telling me how awful I look and how I shouldn't wear dark colors because I look pale and sick, trying to force me to eat gross amounts of food, and insinuating that I look this way on purpose. I'm not anorexic or bulimic and I resent being referred to as such. I try to keep myself looking attractive even if my body isn't what I'd like it to be. I know it's not the same, but I can at least partly understand how painful and stressful being overweight might be. You get the same hurtful comments from rude individuals, and insinuations about your lifestyle and personality based on your body. While it's not healthy to be obese (or underweight for that matter), I still have to give kudos to those women and men who love themselves enough to ignore the nagging of others. I still don't know how to do either one of those things, and it gets me down a lot of the time because nobody takes me seriously. They try to tell me that people are saying it as a compliment, but in my book suggesting to someone that they look sickly or that they probably throw up their food is not a compliment of any kind 🙁

Elf, have you been to a doctor? In general there are less health problems for underweight people, but there are still risks. For some people it is just as hard to put on weight as it is to take it off. A doctor may be able to help.

Well I think I had better have my say too. For the record I am curvy, no Kate Moss as Steph would say, but then not quite a BBW either. Somewhere in between, and I too have had my weight struggles.

I too think many valid points have been made - was certainly a controversial question to ask in the first place and was always going to cut a little close to the bone.

I have to say the most offensive point made was that larger women come on here because they don't get as much attention as slim women do in the real world. I find that completely ridiculous. I am sure there are just as many slim women on here as there are BBWs, and I think none of us would be here if it weren't for our love of tickling. It's unusual for some,impossible for many of us to chance upon fellow tickle fans in the real world, and thats why we congregate here. This has nothing to do with our size. How insulting to suggest that large women come here because they need male attention! I find that sizeist AND sexist in the extreme. I can only speak for myself but I am NOT because I crave male attention, I am here to take part in the forums and explore other areas like the stories forum, as tickle-related information is not easy to come by elsewhere.

Furthermore I still don't agree that slim women get more attention than larger women in the real world. This maybe how life is portrayed by the media, but next time you're out in the 'real world' look around you. I honestly don't think you will notice a marked difference between the number of couples in which the woman is skinny, and those in which the woman is large.

Elf song has brought an interesting subject to the table I don't want to see ignored. There are people with weight problems opposite of mine. I have a friend that during high school and college she only had 98 lbs on a 5'7" frame. Now, that is skinny. At least elf song got over 100lbs and is five inches shorter. As skinny as my friend was in those days, she never had a problem getting guys. She has a gorgeous face and an outgoing personality that made up for the figure issues. Elf song-sometimes you get to work with the hand God dealt you. Don't let anyone rain on your parade or dump their opinions on you. You don't have to tolerate that type of insensitivity at all!!!

I used to think skinny people had no body issues to be concerned about, and in a way, I still feel that way. Realistically, people who are thinner than usual go through similiar issues we larger chicks go through. It's assumed they're aneorexic or bullemic when it's just a very fast metabolism. I have no idea how that feels because my metabolism basically "crawls"!

BTW, when I went to visit my friend in college, her date tried to hit on me behind her back. Seems like he was a closet chubby chaser who liked BBWs too!

I’m an average build male who prefers average build ladies. Why I feel I have to put my ridiculous two cents in here is beyond me but here goes:

Heavy is heavy and ugly is ugly. Heavy is objective and ugly is subjective (thank goodness). What’s really unfortunate is the prejudice that can accompany ‘heavy’. But we have to deal with prejudice in a lot of areas and this is one. I’m sorry that the reality exists but it just does and I think threads like this are good and that we should talk about it. I’ve got a friend who thinks my girlfriend is a stick figure (she is not) and he only dates heavy women because he finds them more attractive. I have no judgment about that. It’s his choice and should be respected. I would never think of making fun of him or any of his girlfriends. It’s just wrong.

Having said that, there are some medical considerations that are no secret. (I’m not a doctor but I am a nurse). 50 lbs overweight is medically obese. 100 lbs overweight is grossly obese. This is a huge health risk. Statistically, no less so than smoking. Yes there is a huge genetic component that we are born with. That is tough to overcome. It’s really not fair.

Getting back on the topic though, I have read the words of many folks on the TMF and looked at most of the pics that are available through links or on this site and it doesn’t matter how big or small someone is. I enjoy reading what you have to say, no matter what size you are. Your thoughts and experiences in this community are valuable and positive. I hope you never feel belittled by anyone. Most importantly, I think though, is not letting some folks make you angry for their views. It’s just a waste of your time when they’re theones you should feel sorry for.

Bella, thank you SO much for posting that link! As an admirer of curvy ladies myself, I can honestly say I've got enough drool material for quite some time now!

I think I'm in love....


Mimi

I'll secone that Mimi - but I do find it disturbing to see one model on there being classed as plus size at only a Size 14!!!!!!!

I So love that signature of yours too Mimi, I'd love to get me one of those.

To all.My wife is a BBW(she is 5ft7 and about 130 lbs)but is not hardbodied.She can't exercise because she has a lower back problem and neurodystrophy in her right knee.She is ticklish all over and especially on her feet.Another guy and I tied her down and tickled her all over and he said he enjoyed it(unless he lied).

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

That sounds really hot. I am sorry i missed that. Wish I were there. Continued lucky and love to you both.

 

[colorockies137]

We are into meeting others into tickling.So if there are any guys that would like to tickle my wife,especially her feet,or women into tickling other women or tickling men,let us know.

Preferences are very individual. Someone's going to get annoyed any time generalizations are made, usually whoever is a glaring exception to that generalization (funny, that 🙄 ). The women that spoke up on this thread were understandably annoyed with disparaging and largely false comments regarding our reasons for being here, our so-called desperation, how attractive we're considered to be, etc. That's to be expected when insulting comments are made about a group that one fits into. It really has little to do with weight; any time those of us who aren't a 5'10 size 2 are told we're less than lovely and desirable, we're gonna give out verbal fat lips. And why shouldn't we? The average woman in this country is 5'4, weighs somewhere in the 150's and is a size 12. Men love us. They adore our curves. We date, find mates, have babies and live our lives. Men tell us we're gorgeous and we believe them. We don't feel one bit unattractive until some fool in the media tries comparing us to a 14 yr old amazonian child from Czechoslavakia who's been airbrushed and plucked half to death and had makeup put on with a trowel, then taught to smoke and shoot heroin under her big toe instead of eating. It's utterly ridiculous, as are those who feed into it. Normal women can be drop-dead gorgeous and extremely popular, and many of us are, teenage giants and fake-boobed anorexics be damned.

No woman here will deny that many men want a slimmer lady, nor do we begrudge them that-to each his own. I love dark haired, big and brawny men, and I hope the underweight fair-haired boys aren't offended 😛 . But while I could hypothesize that the smaller, less muscular males with sunken chests don't get as much attention in bars and clubs and have to come here to be noticed, I choose not to because it's both offensive and very likely untrue for the most part-just as it is for we curvier women. Gotta watch those generalizations.

I'm 4'11. If you tell me that many men prefer tall, leggy girls, I won't argue. But if you tell me that short girls aren't as attractive, we're gonna tangle because I'm here to tell you otherwise. And you won't see many girls my height in videos or on magazine covers; doesn't mean we're any less attractive. Trust me

Off my soapbox for now,

Bella

PS this an an EXTREMELY popular site, have a look:

http://www.lardbiscuit.com/hotchicks.html

I soooo want Via Paxton for a video

I agree totally with Bella and I would also have to say that there are guys that prefer Tall legged ladies but I am 4'6 tall as an 39 year old adult female and I have friends male and female alot taller,bigger than me and I don;t believe for a minute that my friends are concerned being in my presence because I don;t fit in the normal typical stereotype of a 39 yr old adult female.If you ask me,the people that get to know me are attracted by my sweet caring outgoing affectionate playful personality and while I consider myself to be attractive, I don;t feel any less special,sexy as a lady just because I personally don;t make it a habit to wear nylons and high heels alot..

Tickleshotel,I noticed this is about the second or third you have posted something about size since my e-mail.I have tried to say I'm sorry,but I was mad at the time(no excuse but it happens).I am still willing to get together to get to know you,if you want,and,again,I'm sorry.

Colorockies, no need to say your sorry as I do understand how you;d be upset with the situation you told me about ..I do thank you for saying your sorry and I am sorry myself that I couldn;t find the words to respond to that email . I still would like to get to know you as well as your wife if after seeing my pictures you'd like to get together in the future for some tickling as I'd enjoy tickling your wife if she is open to it,as well as her tickling me ,ect..

That sounds great.

I can't believe this thread is still kicking...

After reviewing the initial question posed by ticklishmike25 I am 100% confident that I answered his question with a completely logical answer.

Now.. Looking at what Mike said...

"It seems to be that in the forum most of the women into and open about tickling are heavy or chubby. Are there any thin women into tickling? are heavy women just more ticklish then thin women or more open about their fetish?"

I didn't ask this question or said I agree with his observation (guess what though.. I do). I simply laid out an explanation for a trend he noticed.

Now, I'm not accusing any one woman on here of someone who fits that "profile". I do stand by my theory and believe it does apply to this forum as well as others across the internet.

In regards to Steph"s statement. She make's herself out to be unattractive but she is awesome. Not only is she awesome but she is ticklish. What a wonderful combination. Loving, caring ,personality, and great looks, who could ask for anything more. Now unfortunately, we have people like Kyle out here who are insensitive and cruel. Not everyone thinks like you Kyle. I message the ladies out here and I don't think what do they weigh? This is a fetish that is fun and/or can be sexual exciting. To lump the ladies into one pot and say they are heavy and that is why they are out here is retarded. You should check any biase at the door or not bother coming out here. Now I know I will probably hear from the MODS but I can't believe anyone could be so cruel. I tickle because it is fun. I don't say I not going to tickle her because she is heavy. I am an equal opportunity tickler. So to Kyle and others like you ...stuff it.

ticklingfeet4fu, I really don't have a clue what you're talking about. I understand how I ruffled a few feathers of course but I don't believe i made any crass remarks that would deserve being labeled as "cruel".

I'm not trying to point you out to the mods either. I wasn't offended by your reply, I just like to be right.
