message: Chub (gay slang) should be merged with this article. --Dan LeveilleTALK 22:08, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Disagree. I think both articles need be developed and the average reader will be looking for information on one community or the other. They should link to each other though. Benjiboi 22:14, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If not, you're right, the articles should link to each other, because a "chubby chaser" could refer to both gay and straight. There should be a section on the Chubby chaser that has a . There needs to be integration! haha. (PS - I always run into you on articles that we've both edited!) --Dan LeveilleTALK 22:17, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

message: “An example would be how Dom is attracted to the Teen Wolf. She is now labled a Chubby Chaser by her friends.” Does anyone have a source for this? I don’t even know what this is supposed to mean anyway. Taric25 (talk) 22:40, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Teen Wolf 

message: I am a man who is exclusively attracted to BBW...yet, I find the term "chubby chaser" offensive. To me, BBW are living art, and any woman is my equal, not someone to be chased like a prey animal. For me, my feelings are as natural as breathing or sleeping when tired. I would request that the word "officially" come off this article...as it is no fact, and not NPOV either. 65.248.164.214 (talk) 20:49, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm with him. Why call someone a "chubby chaser" at all? Do we call people who are attracted to thin people "skinny chasers"?  No. Calling them Chubby Chasers makes it sound like it's a fetish or something - like it's all about the weight, and not the person. Shocking to some in this country, some people DO find the overweight to be sexually attractive. 99.129.102.247 (talk) 00:23, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It's certainly true that there's nothing official about the term, and it's been removed from the article. But (speaking as a chubby gay man myself) I don't see why "chubby chaser" should be offensive. It's very convenient to have a label that distinguishes the guys we do have a chance with from the guys we don't. —Angr 04:30, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: "Officially" a Chubby Chaser??

message: Depicted in media they're usually "ordinary" looking individuals (mostly fit). Is this true? And is it part of the psychology? Some sort of empowerment - I’m fit and your not i.e. superior/in control?

replies: text: While it's true chasers are usually of average weight, I don't think the psychology of "I'm in control over you because I'm fit and you're not" is generally present, except in the case of feederism. —Angr 05:14, 21 October 2008 (UTC)
