Fantasy Feeder is an online social networking website where like-minded adults can get together to share and explore their fantasies about feeding, fattening and gaining weight. It’s free to join and once registered members enjoy many typical social networking features such as creating profiles, uploading pictures and videos, posting in discussion forums and real time chat. There are also upgrade packages for additional features including webcam chat and dating profiles.

The website first appeared online as a turn based game called ‘Fatten Your Feedee’ in 1999, before quickly evolving into a website and acquiring its own domain name in 2004. Since then it has grown steadily into a strong community of over 10,000 visitors a day in 2012 and up to 10 active moderators.

Along with dimensionsmagazine.com, Fantasy Feeder was one of the first websites on the Internet where people could openly discuss their sexual fantasies and desires about gaining weight or fattening others. Before this time and the emergence of the Internet the only real outlet for these feelings was through top shelf magazines such as Dimensions, BUF and Plumpers. Many people have since expressed how isolated they felt, thinking that they were the only person with these feelings, whilst living in a culture where being fat is often frowned upon and ridiculed.

Today the website deliberately tries to be a safe haven from the outside world, where people can make friends and open up on what can often be quite personal feelings and desires. It aims to be a place where being fat and getting fatter is celebrated and enjoyed, a sometimes controversial subject that has led to a strong sense of community and togetherness.
