Fat admirer
Fat admirers (or FAs) are people, usually male heterosexuals, who are sexually attracted to large partners. The term is very flexible, and an FA may be best defined as anyone with a standard of beauty larger than that of the mainstream.Since the advent of the internet, the FA subculture has begun to overlap with many other subcultures, such as homosexuality, science-fiction fandom, and anime.
FAs are often viewed as fetishists by the mainstream, but they reject such labels as unfair, regarding popular culture as being dominated by a pro-thin bias. Many FAs are involved with the size acceptance movement.
The average FA should not be confused with the feeder, though he may sympathize with his cause.
