Do gay guys like fat guys

As a bigger guy myself, I'm kinda surprised to see the general hate towards bigger guys, it's muscular or go home basically.

A study by University of Brighton researcher Nick McGlynn is spotlighting the often difficult experiences of fatter men in gay spaces across the UK. Dr McGlynn's report — entitled Bearspace — is the largest ever study of the UK's community of 'Bears', a term referring to big and hairy gay men who typically present in a more 'masculine' way, and who make up one of the UK's largest gay male subcultures. This groundbreaking research explores the experiences of fat gay, bi and queer GBQ men in spaces used and created by Bear communities in the UK, drawing on data from focus groups, interviews and Nick's own observations.

When you first come out, gay men are eager to let you know that you're not alone, and that you have a seat at the table. Unless, of course, you're also fat, in which case, no, you can't sit with us. When you grow up overweight, everyone notices — not just your classmates, who are too young to have mastered the art of tact, but also friends' parents and teachers.
