I just watched this interview snippet between Wood and Renee Starr

And Renee's answer to the question "What does feedism mean to you?" got me thinking: would feedism exist in a world without fatphobia, one that was a lot more body positive? Maybe the answer is "yes" in that pretty much every fetish exists somewhere, for someone. But it seems like for a lot of feedists part of what makes it hot is the transgressive dimension. Whether it's a self-confident 'fuck you' to the world or a twisted sort of pleasure derived from shame and guilt, a lot of feedists (feeders, feedees, gainers, whatever) seem to find satisfaction in breaking the rules of society. So sometimes I wonder: if fat acceptance and body positivism are successful in the long-run and diet culture dies, will feedism largely fall away, just replaced by more vanilla sexual attraction to all sorts of bodies and eating habits?
