    @2OOPoVstrechnoyمنذ 8 سنوات I sometimes wonder if the huge amount of gay suicides also has to do with the stigma against men who aren't seen as attractive enough. A lot of gay id="hidden1" class="buttons"> men take the competitive sex obsessed side of straight men, and mix it with the bitchy superficial side of some women. It's the perfect storm of an awful human being lol. I have a friend who struggles alot with how he has been treated by other gay men. He is afraid to even go to gay clubs and bars at this point because of how judgmental and catty people can be. It's really sad to see our own community divided instead of embracing eachother. Preference or not, you don't have to be a jerk to someone over something so silly. ....وسعت 123

    @phais3منذ 8 سنوات And this video is why, Davey, that ever since your early days in Toronto when you first started filming - I have watched, subscribed, consumed, and fell id="hidden2" class="buttons"> in love with your content.
    You have always, always been in inspiration to me. You have taught me about myself. You have taught me how to teach others about myself - and our community. You have stayed true and faithful to your subscribers.
    This speaks to me.
    Years ago you promoted "You Are Beautiful, Pass It On". I have passed this message along to people I come across in my life.
    Davey, just thank you. From the bottom of my heart.

    @BrycenGainesمنذ 8 سنوات Omg I needed this sooo badly. Thank you for covering this issue. I'm new to the gay scene and am I'm a big guy and I'm also trans but one would id="hidden9" class="buttons"> never think it by looking at me. I couldn't figure out why guys didn't talk to me at clubs, bars, etc, and its been slowly occurring to me that it may be because I'm overweight. I became very sad at realizing this fact and started to get insecure. Seeing this reasured me that I can love and accept myself and that I can find love. I guess I haven't been looking in the right places. ....وسعت 6

    @VAChub4Muscleمنذ 7 سنوات Thank you for doing this video Davey - I too as an overweight gay man have experienced people on various dating or fetish sites send me messages just to id="hidden10" class="buttons"> ask me why I'm there and who I think would ever want to be with me. All I did was look at their profile - not even message or liked their profile - just looked at it - and from what they had already knew they weren't interested - so i moved on. Don't know why they couldn't have done the same without reaching out just to insult me.
    Anyhow - thank you for doing a video on the topic of us bigger gay men.

    @ilyalisser8333منذ 8 سنوات Thank you for this video, I recognize so much. Although I am not quite as far as you Martijn in regard to my self-esteem, it helps to hear experiences id="hidden12" class="buttons"> of other gay men who struggle with their body image. Although I am struggling with my weight, I have the feeling that the insecurity has a higher impact on my health and life in general than me being overweight. Hopefully it will change some day :). ....وسعت

    @CurumoTheGreatمنذ 8 سنوات Dear Martijn, I have no words to explain how identified I feel with your words. You're basically describing me. My friends know me as a strong, opinionated id="hidden16" class="buttons"> (in the good sense) and self-confident person. But the reality is that, more often than not, I feel VERY insecure about the way I look. I've actually learned not to comment on people's appearance because I don't wanna be receiving those comments. I mean, even saying something like "have you lost weight", "are you on a diet" because I really want my friends to see me for who I am, not the way I look. I'm 40 now, almost 41 and being overweight and "mature" is kind of a bad mix. I'm just lucky that I'm married to someone who loves me for who I am, but I always wonder if I were single, would people still find me attractive? I know it's sounds silly, that you shouldn't base your self confidence on what others think of you, but it feels kinda nice when someone flatters you.
    BTW, I'd love to be your friend! I bet you're an amazing person to have long conversations with!

    @aarxnwمنذ 8 سنوات People on dating websites judge people on their looks because you could write anything on your profile to make you sound better and the way you express id="hidden17" class="buttons"> yourself through text on the chat is different to how you express yourself in person, i'm super skinny and I didn't mean to fall in love with a chubbier guy, but I did and he is self conscious about his body and he shouldn't be, because I love him for him and not for his body! :) ....وسعت 2

    @TheHighMageمنذ 8 سنوات I was once on grindr. I know I know don't judge. So a guy messaged me asking if my weight was really 220, I said yes, thinking he was going to say id="hidden21" class="buttons"> I looked slimmer or something. He proceeded to say I was disgusting and unhealthy and shouldn't be on there. I uninstalled it and didn't consider dating anyone for years.
    Then I met someone through a friend at a get together, we hit it off. He's skinny, tiny even but he finds me attractive. He's not a chaser, he just doesn't mind body type.
    Even if one feels worthless, there's always someone who will disagree. Hopefully you will meet them.

    @hworthمنذ 8 سنوات I really hate the false idea that being attracted to fat men is a fetish. Is being attracted to muscular men a fetish? How about blonde men? Or twinks? id="hidden34" class="buttons"> Which physical characteristics you find attractive are preferences, some preferences are more popular than others, but that does not make the unpopular preferences fetishes. I want a partner who finds me attractive - physically, emotionally, and intellectually. I love my body and want a partner who loves it too. Physical attractiveness is not in competition with personality attractiveness, I want both. Luckily, my husband and I have been in a mutual attraction society of two for almost 10 years now, but I think a lot of fat guys sell themselves short by settling for less than that. ....وسعت 5

But that's the beauty of the gay community there's a place for everyone big or small.
    I will say that there is a problem where people feel the need to degrade others for what they like or look like whether it's skinny, chubs, bears, muscle bears etc. it's called personal preference for a reason there should be no shaming in that it is bad enough we get shit for being gay from others that just don't accept us but then we hate on each other Dafuq? Think about it, isn'it sad that there are 2 different prides? There's Gay pride and Bear pride? We can't even get along in the same boat -_-
