After one Reddit user raved about guys who are “hefty, chunky, bara, etc” in an r/askgaybros post, others joined him at the altar of our larger brethren.
That Reddit user asserted that he’s bi and that he “f*cking swoon[s]” over big bois.
“You could definitely say I’m into bears,” he added. “I can’t explain why they’re so hot to me. I’m sure I’m not the only one, right?”
How about we take this to the next level?

Only one? Hardly.
Just check out all these hot-and-heavy comments from the thread, which we have tidied up for grammar and brevity but otherwise left in their thirsty glory…
Laying it on thicc:
“There’s something really sexy about a big guy who’s completely comfortable with the way he looks. It’s a body-plus-personality thing for me.”
“They’re just nicer guys and don’t really give off bad vibes.”
“I personally only like bears. I like the big belly—it makes for an amazing pillow, feels amazing when spooning, [and] the extra pressure when they’re on top just makes the sex incredible. Then their furry bodies are so amazing to caress. The subtle sensation of the hair really makes me happy. More often than not, they’re also warmer, so I also enjoy all of the warm body contact. Bear guys are just purely top-tier.”

“I created EveryMAN to inspire and empower,” Tarik Carroll says. “But I had no idea that it would grow into such a movement.”
“Oh, totally, yes. Snuggle-able and so nice and warm to hug when sleeping. Bonus: Usually really nice ass.”
“Some people see a guy with abs and think, ‘He’s hot.’ Other people see a fat guy and think, ‘He’s hot.’ Personally, I’m in the second group. I don’t know why. I just am.”
“They’re incredibly cuddly, and feeling up their body is incredibly satisfying.”
“They’re hot. People of all sizes and builds can be hot. It’s about how they use their body (not even sexually, just day-to-day) that makes someone attractive.”

“Big hairy bellies and bara tiddies do monstrous things to me. They also have much better personalities.”
“Hairy, stocky guys are hot. They are great to cuddle with. I love brushing my hands or putting my face against a hairy chest. Sweaty, hairy chests during sex are so hot. They also tend to have hands that give great massages. … Ones that I have been with tend to soft dom.”
“They are many times a bit more down to earth and nicer. I’m not offering ripped abs, and I don’t expect others to have them either.”
“I love bigger, chubby, guys. I’m one of them.”

KissBananaPeels
it is a sexual fetish NOT an authentic appreciation…prove me wrong
Jaesly
I hope you aren’t here to kink shame!
monty clift
Sounds like they desperately want other people to validate that they are a chubby-chaser.
Jaesly
Monty, you sound like a judgey old Boomer queen.
KissBananaPeels
Jaesly…I do believe in kink shaming when it endorses and encourages a shortened life span…also I do not believe in these self-destructive rules that many in the LGBT community embraces at the cost of decency
KissBananaPeels
Monty you are correct…

it’s nobody’s job to prove you wrong. you made the claim; it’s your job to show us the proof that you’re right
Jaesly
Kiss, as a non-thin gay person, let me tell you you can spare me your judgement. Who made you everyone’s nutritionist, Karen?

I don’t believe it, but I guess de gustibus non est disputandum.

For those out there who don’t know Latin this phrase roughly translates to: who is to argue with taste. There. fixed it for ya’. you’re welcome.
JPB
Uh, no.
Jaesly
Spak for yourself. You aren’t every gay man.
monty clift
The Reddit post isn’t even from a gay man, lol. The truth is, most gay men like healthy-looking bodies.
KissBananaPeels
AGREED Monty and we are NOT talking 3 hours in the gym everyday bodies just healthy…
Dirtpaw
Nothing is hotter than someone confidently owning what they’ve got. I’d take a thicc furry man over an insecure gym rat any day without a second thought.
FreddieW
Can’t say that any and every hairy body turns me on, but I’ve always appreciated bears. The guy in the photo looks terrific.
Jaesly
When will gay men learn that, while they are welcome to their body preference, it doesn’t them the right to judge how others live their lives? Do they think they are Christians?
bachy
I loves me some beefy, be it hairy or smoove.

Some Men (and Women) are simply larger. Even if they are diet conscious. People who “fat shame” are so insecure.
Roseanne said it best. If your fat. Just be fat and shut up If your skinny. F… you.
abfab
Roseanne? Sure, Jan.
bachy
Roseanne believes that at the end of the world, only the fat people will survive. She pictures herself walking over blighted fields of bones, veneers and breast implants of all the thin people who didn’t make it.

Normal men are now, apparently, a fetish. Good luck with your Ken dolls. Particularly when you’re 70.
