He is *so* anti-feeding that I yahooed as soon as I saw him on there and told him it was a good thing I knew him so well or I would have thought he was a feeder too.

Feeding is a very controversial practice within the BBW/FA world and I am afraid I fall on the 'it is evil' camp. There is nothing wrong with sensual eating..most of us have seen 9 1/2 weeks but wanting someone you love to be imobile just doesn't sit with me. A lot of people interviewed in that show are 'old skool'ers in the BBW movement from before it was on the web and was really magazine and BBS based (that is how I met Yohannon) and as I was getting involved with it at the time I have had atleast one conversation with most of the people on the show. Lets just say...i could happily beat the shit out of a couple of those guys. Yohannon, well..i love him dearly as a friend and was just upset to see him on the show. Not because of who he is - he is THE man that made me not hate myself at a time in my life where I could have easily killed myself and not cared - but because it worried me that the producers grouped him in with what I consider to be the underbelly of my community.
