Do You Know These BBW Fetish Terms?
BBW/BHM
Big beautiful woman, or big handsome man. If you are either, it is good etiquette to note this in dating communications. Some admirers of big beautiful people are big and beautiful themselves, and some are seeking the same. This is a helpful designation to ensure, well, the right fit.
See our post on BBW fetish dating for more thoughts on dating large and lovely babes:
Adipophilia
Adipophilia derives from adipose, a fancy word for fat. Philia means love or affection. The connotation of a philia is a specific, intense passion. You will probably hear the word adipophilia more in an academic setting than on a BBW kink site, but it’s still good to know.
Chubby Chaser
The chaser term is somehow derogatory these days, whatever fetish is being referenced. But chubby chaser is lingo that has been around for quite some time in popular culture, and many people who use it do so with fondness.
Feederism
Feederism is a separate kink to fat fetishism. Fat folk admirers often have a fixed ideal—whether mildly rounded or XXXL—and for feeders, fat alone is not enough. It is the act of feeding, of watching a person eat, and observing them gain weight over time that excites.
A gainer is committed to a feeder and gains weight to please a partner over time.

Extreme feeders or gainers have some element of BDSM. The interdependence is intense. It is part of the submission and thrill for the gainer, that she succumb totally to her partner’s control.
Trust and dependency are key features—it isn’t a BBW fetish that can play out during a quick hookup, like those found on many fetish dating sites.
Hogging
Hogging is the practice of finding overweight women and hooking up with them to prove that fat women are desperate sluts.
It is usually not out of attraction toward large babes, but rather, with the aim of degrading her or humiliating her. Not cool.
Leblouh/Gavage
Feeding and “force-feeding”must always be consensual!
Leblouh is a tradition in parts of West Africa where young girls are force fed against their will to fatten them up for marriage.
Gavage is the word traditionally applied to force feeding animals to fatten them for the plate. Engaging in gavage can be part of BDSM, and like other acts of sadism or masochism, the force part must be willingly agreed to.
Squashing
Squashing is a fetish for being overpowered and smothered by a corpulent body. It has some parallels to other fetishes like face sitting where oxygen is restricted , or to masochism.
It simply involves one party wanting to be overtaken and surrounded physically by a supersized partner.

Belly Play/Gut Flopping
Many are turned on by the belly. This BBW kink may involve caressing, kneading, licking, being smothered by, or ejaculating against the stomach.
Gut flopping is when the belly makes a smacking sound being lifted and falling, a particular turn on for some BBW fetishists.
Apple/Pear/Hourglass
These are descriptions of a figure type.
An apple has average legs and is round in the middle. A pear is bottom heavy, and an hourglass has a small waist and proportionate breasts and hips.
Curvy/Plump/Chubby/Thick/Obese/Morbidly Obese
Fat fetishists can have difficulty matching up with the right partner because what one considers fat is subjective.
Some men with a BBW fetish like them pleasantly plump, while some like women who are morbidly obese, or SSBBW. One man’s mountain is another man’s molehill. So these descriptors are imperfect but are helpful nonetheless.
