Tyra: Men Who Are Obsessed With Obese Women 
On today’s episode, Tyra interviewed men who are “obsessed” with obese women. However, it seemed a lot more like a fetish than an obsession. One guest, Scott has been attracted to 400-pound women ever since he was a little boy.
From the comments:
wait, so being attracted to fat women is a fetish? because sex with a fat woman is an abnormal sexual expression? does not compute. also, TOTALLY disturbed by his description of sex “with a big girl” like boxing “you step in there and you knock ‘em out” what the fuck is that supposed to mean? and there are only two clips from the show but im wondering, does nikki ever get to speak about her sexuality? or is the focus just on him and how he has sex with her
I have struggled with this all my life, people accusing me of being a fetishist. Every sexual being has their own taste and preference. I like big girls because big girls are beautiful to me, and there are lots of men who feel the same way. We are as “obsessed” with large women as some men are “obsessed” with not-large women. Can’t we just say that heterosexual men are “obsessed” with women and have it be done with? Why does there need to be this segregation, as if thin women and thick women come from a different species?
To imply that my sexual taste is abnormal in some way is insulting not only to me, but to all of the beautiful queens out there who are constantly made to feel like the only way a man will desire them is if they have a “fetish.” It’s simply untrue, lovelies. I know it’s difficult with it coming at you from all sides, but please don’t let our sensationalist, school-yard-bully media make you feel less than. I’m attracted to your curves and your softness because they’re beautiful. I do not fetishize you!!! I admire and desire you as any hetero man admires and desires a woman he finds attractive— neither of us is abnormal.
