'''Fat fetishism''' is a sexual fetish that derives sexual pleasure from fat bodies and their features, weight gain, and the effects of weight gain. The act of intentionally putting on weight to satisfy a fat fetish is known as '''gaining'''.
Fat fetishism is related to the act of '''feedism''' (or '''feederism'''), which is the practice of feeding oneself or a partnerprimarily, primarily but not necessarily , done with the goal to increase their weight. It In this relationship, the person who gains gratification from the idea or act of growing bigger or fatter is known as the '''feedee''', whose partner, the '''feeder''', assists them in gaining weight, but who doesn't necessarily gain weight themselves. Feedism can be practiced at any [[body size]], but is most commonly done by people where at least one of the partners is already large. Feederism is the most used term for this concept, but some people prefer feedism to signify that it is not primarily about the feeder, but also the feedee.
Many feedees experience sexual gratification and a romantic bond through feeding fantasies and/or actions. In the gay community, feedees are often referred to as "gainers."<sup>[citation needed]</sup> Feedism and gaining isare, in many cases, the focus of a [[List of models|web modelsmodel's]]profession, with eating and stuffing content (in the form of photos, videos , etc) followed by videos celebrating higher and celebrations of higher weigh-ins.
Feedism and its related activities (for example, fat shaming play), as an intimate sexual activity, must be done with full consent of everyone who is involved.
