Echoes Of Fat Times And Other Stories

Echoes Of Fat Times And Other Stories

I attended a boarding school somewhere in the north central. As it’s been already established, lots of amateur gay sex happens in those places.

I remember one Sunday evening when I was in SS2. I was napping on my bunk shortly after dinner when my best friend at the time excitedly woke me up, saying something incredible had just happened and I had to hear. I quickly got up and paid full attention to him while he regaled me with the tale of how one of the hottest guys in our set, Oliver, had caressed him when my friend, Noah fell asleep on his bed while they were gisting. It was when Oliver tried to kiss him that Noah got up and ran.

You see, Oliver was a very good-looking, light-skinned chap. He was so dreamy, and had very brown eyes and I’d had a crush on him since he moved to our school the year before. I never would have guessed he was interested in guys, so naturally, this was great news, and I said a prayer of thanksgiving to God before I jumped off my bed and left for night prep.

I didn’t have sex with Oliver until we were in SS3 and Noah and I moved into Noah’s cubicle. Noah had a cubicle because he was a prefect. The cubicle was often referred to as “The Whore House” because clearly, Noah was a hoe, who hated and was hated by lots of our mates who were spiteful because he had either refused to sleep with them or they just couldn’t stand his sassy attitude.

Sex with Oliver was so good. He had started ‘courting’ me after Noah had divulged to him that I had a crush on him. The first time we had sex, he had been drinking Garri with Milo, and when I leaned in to give him a proper French kiss, I could taste the beverage in his mouth. I still remember how he tasted. We went on to have sex and kept at it till we were done with high school.

Four years later, during one of these ASUU strikes, we were both in Lagos, and he talked me into visiting him at his residence. I was like, “Okay, cool.” I got pretty excited. I was still very fond of the guy and all that.

On that fateful day, I got dressed and hit the road. After over an hour, I finally got to his estate. I called him to come pick me up at the gate, and then I stood and waited for my Prince charming to come get me.

Minutes later, I looked up to see an obese boy smiling and heading towards me. Because of my shortsightedness, I assumed that was Oliver’s younger brother or cousin, so I quickly picked up my phone to call Oliver and ask him why he was sending someone to get me when he said he’d come himself. I got the shock of my life when I saw the fat boy pick up the phone and it dawned on me that Oliver was him – the fat boy.

My perfect Oliver, winner of best physique back in high school, had fattened up to the point of bursting. I struggled to hold back my tears as I mentally counted all the pimples on his fat face while I shook hands with him politely.

I made small talk with him as we walked down to his place. I sipped on some juice while he played a porn video for the both of us to watch. The minute he took off his black jallabiya, my eyes went to his fleshy, pink stomach and I instantly ran to the bathroom to puke and cry my eyes out. I washed my face and returned to his room where I asked him to put his clothes back on, before I went on to gently inquire why he let himself go. Following our conversation, I laid out a routine for him to follow in order to go back to being the right size, picked some novels from his library for myself and headed home.

          Now that I think it, I really think there shud be an opinion poll/survey to find out how many gay guys were actually ‘converted’ or knew they were gay from the outset. Yes, I know EVERY man has the inherent disposition to homosexuality, but there are differences between “I know who I was. Gay”, “I was raped gay”, “I was curious and now I am gay”, “I’m gay for pay”. etc.
          AND the end does not justify the means. There cud just be significant relationships between how one ‘came to be gay’ and happiness or internal homophobia. Sensei, Pinky…

          I’m sorry Masked Man, what exactly is the issue here? If you’re so scared for your cousin, then talk to him. Educate him on what you believe goes on in the school.
          If you’re afraid he’ll be “converted”, then scream to his parents. Stop him from the conversion….. Seriously, saying conversion is even annoying.

This piece is a bloody waste of space!! And a waste of very scarce time!! It neither entertained nor informed,all that it did was to show how indecently you treat people simply because they happen to be overweight… it showed what an insensitive prick you are, it showed how you care nothing about stomping all over the emotions of another, it showed how Mich you need to learn about life! ***Rolls eyes @ u and throws sequinned Slipper @Pinky for this bloody stupid post***

    Everybody’s going at the author for fat shaming, which I find really ridiculous. The author was being very honest. The fact of the matter is, most gay ppl do not find overweight ppl attractive and would react just as the author did. Lets be real here.

    As someone who struggles with weight from time to time and has the tendency to be over weight with the slightest binge. I’ve come to realize and I know first hand what losing a few kilos can do.

    Not many of you find fat or even chubby ppl attractive, it’s not fat shaming, it’s just a preference.
    It’s up to you as an overweight gay man, or someone who has the tendency to be like me, to be super conscious of what you eat, exercise, and keep fit.. Not just for yourself but for others as well.

    But let’s make it very clear, this post isn’t fat shaming in any way.

    But we really should call this post what it is – a terrible fat-shaming post. Being someone who very much struggled with my weight at some point in my life, it was disgusting to read this. I have been left out in the cold by people so many times that I had to start explicitly telling people my trouser size to give them an idea of how big I was. And don’t even get me started with the puking part.

    Now this right here is a fat-shaming article. No matter what you think it as, counting his pimples (probably because you deemed it disgusting to be fat and pimply at once), puking in the toilet? Are you for real?

    Some time ago, I made a comment about how I don’t like ‘fat’ (and not fat people sef) and was nearly burned at the stake. Clearly, the hypocrisy seems to have dwindled a little. So this much people hate fat too? Many even went ahead to say they hate ‘fat people’ (the beings and not just their physical disposition). Lol. I laugh cos KD is just a blog of contradictions.
    When I said I didn’t like fat, y’all made it seem like I was bred in Witchville and now what do I see?

    Anyway, like I wrote earlier, the puking part wasn’t necessary. I know u didn’t find him attractive, but puking shows you found him disgusting. That’s not good. I’d tell him I do not like his present state. I’d let him know the health risks that come with being fat. I’d go ahead to give him tips on how to slim down. I would make him understand that I’d always call him out and rebuke him (if I need to), if he doesn’t heed what I say. But I won’t find him disgusting. I won’t puke when he turns away. I just won’t crush on him.
    Unlike what many of you think, Delle doesn’t fat-shame. Y’all have seen one who does.

      I am not coming at you, but not everyone wants to be slim. Giving tips about how to lose weight would be fat shaming still to someone who was comfortable with where their body is. If there are health risks fine, but we know that just a little extra pounds for gay men is a huge turn off. So someone will just hide under the umbrella of giving advice and still shame fat people. It is almost like discrimination against effeminate people. And no one should tell me that it is not. My friend struggled with being effeminate and came crying to me a lot of times because of the reactions he got from people he met. We were able to help each other from our experiences of being shamed even though different. Imagine a guy asking “I hope you don’t shele cos I can’t stand people who shele”. I told my friend to rapture him immediately. Oshi ponbele ponbe

      It’s like ” you know what, I’m gonna give this person my opinion on his body even though I wasnt asked because without me and my opinion this person is probably not gonna make it. If I don’t voice this unsolicited opinion, this person is doomed.”

      Your intentions might be pure but you just end up sounding condescending.

      When people see an overweight person it’s like they don’t see a person anymore all they see is the weight and not someone with feelings and probably an awesome personality. The weight becomes all they are interested in…and so they will say anything all in the name of “helping” not knowing that they are probably doing even more damage.

        This is definitely not me. You prolly missed the part where I said it’s the fat I have a problem with and not the person. These people are my friends, family, acquaintances and if you feel I hate them just because I tell them to their faces how their physique doesn’t appeal to me, then that’s your problem, Deola. It doesn’t mean you’re right, it’s just your opinion. Besides, it’s all for good intentions. No spite whatsoever intended. They get it with me, trust me hun, they do get it.

          I’m not here to call you out on whether you fat-shame or not, Delle. but answer me something, how is this different from a straight person telling you he hates your sin of homosexuality and not you? Stop trying to make that distinction in your arguement. It doesn’t fly. The fat is as much the person as everything else in him is. Telling a person you hate his fat is telling a person you hate him. Period.

          Sweetheart I don’t care if you hate overweight folk. My own is when your opinion is unsolicited, keep it to ur fucking self.

          And quit it with this “Savior of the orobo” act.
          You think the fat person doesn’t know they are fat? You think they need you to point it out?

          Like what is with people and the need to always voice their thoughts when e no consine you.

          The person doesn’t appeal to you?fine say it to their face, but then giving them tips on how to lose weight? Shey dem ask you ?
          I could give you tips on how not to be a horrible but it will probably fly over your head like most things do.

      I would make him understand that I’d always call him out and rebuke him (if I need to), if he doesn’t heed what I say.

      Did you really think well before you wrote this?

      There’s a fine line between helping out and being a complete jerk. How is this different from someone bugging you about switching sexuality or getting married persistently?

      Say what you have to say and move along. Quit pestering the person and worsening the person’s fragile state of mind. You never know what fat people are going through. If na depression related fat nko? You’re there fueling the flame in the guise of helping

      Maybe I did sound condescending, didn’t mean to. But the truth is this: from the post, the guy wasn’t originally fat. Probably stress or depression led to his present state of obesity (like Francis rightly said), this means he has a shot at getting back to his fit self. If it’s truly those factors above that caused his fat, then he cannot be happy being that way (this goes to you Brian). I know some people love the way they are (the big, bold and beautiful ones, yeah yeah), but I don’t speak for those ones. I talk about the ones who get fat and feel they are irreparable. Those ones who have lost all hope in changing their physique. They are the ones with the problem.

      Remember this; there are fat people who are healthier than even those who exercise. These ones, I have no issues with and so contrary to what you think, I don’t castigate them. I don’t see fat as a disease, I only see the liability in fat when I know the conditions surrounding that physicality as it concerns the person. I have a friend who struggles with her weight, complains incessantly about her tummy not being flat and all, I don’t spare her. I ensure she has no fattening meals (even though she’s as defiant as the word and I end up losing every argument). But if you find my rebuke (maybe not the right word here, but I dont mean it in a condescending manner) arrogant or horrible, then I’m sorry. I’m just being a friend in my own way. I won’t let you soak up in self-pity and loathe just cos I’m trying not to hurt you.
      “Ah Francis! Can you pls stop taking burger for a week and hit the gym?”…if that makes me bad, then it’s fine. It doesn’t define me cos I know what I am and what I’m doing.

      Brian, equating effeminacy with being fat in this context confused me. I’m talking those with weight issues and not fat people. As far as I’m concerned, there are no issues with being effeminate. None whatsoever. If you have weight issues, I’d tell you, unsolicited or not what I feel you should do. I’m not without a heart. I know how to approach such issues and would only come at you when you consistently complain to me how you don’t like your physique.

    I read all the comments and I’m guessing a lot of people were angry because they were confused so, for clarity sake, a free foot notes:

    1. I am not a fat shamer; I’m actually a very nice guy who CARES about other people’s FEELINGS.

    2.I clearly didn’t just bolt to the bathroom to throw up. I went to pee and then I felt choked.

    I’m only inserting this addendum because of the FRIENDS I’ve made on here who may need it for better understanding.

      You’re a fat shamer, admit it. Most people try to be Politically correct by not going as far as making such a post but you did, you admitted you puked. So I’ll ask you this, is it your pee that made you puke? The dirty toilet? Maybe the porn was scat? You saw a maggot making love to a fly? What exactly made you puke?

      I was horrified by the post but hey, like you said, we’ll get over it. One thing though, to those that know exactly who you are, now they know you’re an actual fat shamer. We’ll get over it but we’ll never forget.

      OK this was really rude. It’s evident that you have an attitude problem , and it’s not even the cool fiesty kind. It’s the rough, uncouth and local kind that ppl generally find unappealing. You know the type Bus Conductor ‘s are associated with. If thats indeed the case then you have alot to worry about than the average morbidly obese gay man

      I don’t see the post as fat shaming, but judging from this comment, you are coming across as someone who intentionally likes to irritate ppl by ruffling unnecessary feathers. And as you’ve intended, I am surprisingly quite irritated

    Do you realise emotional trauma can make one gain weight? You keep worrying, being depressed and turn to food for comfort. So many gay people are fighting their demons in this country and some don’t get to escape that cycle of food-depression-suicide. Your friend might have been going through such. Oh wait, is he actually your friend? Crush, fuck buddy maybe? OK, let’s stick to crush. OK then, your crush might have been going through that? Are you still in touch with him? You keeping track on the regimen you so graciously recommended?

    Fat shaming is bad, show some empathy.

    Good day everyone.. And thanks to the writer for bringing up this topic. People think I’m a freak because I love fat guys. Infact I’ve received insults for not liking six packs, muscles and all. But dare I say, being chubby/plump/fat is no sin. If you want to lose weight do.. But not because of what people around you say.. I for one love fat boys and there are many others like me out there.
    My policy is “the bigger the better”. So if you’re on the plus size contact PP for my email.
    P.s. At the risk of sounding like a Hoe, if oliver is still fat, I won’t mind at all.

    It’s all fun and games until it’s not. Never in my wildest dream did i imagine it would escalate from being the humor story of how i missed my second chance of being with someone i really liked to a fat-shaming story. I may not be sexually attracted to fat people, but i would never intentionally make them feel obscure. I have a conscience.

    Thank you so much @ shuga chocolata, apparently some comments are hidden and I only saw ur message now.

    Hmmm! I wouldn’t have guessed this much drama would play out here

    Lemme ask a simple question: do we want an honest post or the well carved out story that would be audience friendly

    This is how the writer feels! It’s for us to constructively make him see why he should make a change
    Fat shaming is a thing. Yes! That is why you should check that extra calorie you want to eat.
    But, if we go on dragging people out this way, then we will be demanding a near perfect post! A story where the honest perspective of the writer is lost

    If he felt that way @ that moment, can’t we all constructively criticize? So that the purpose of the writing won’t be lost… the purpose being ‘learning from a story’

    Now, some of us flagging ‘No fat shaming’, would probably be having a threesome with a fit hot bod’ dude and an overweight dude, and we won’t even turn to the overweight dude till the whole sex is over!
    What would u call that?
    What am saying is- I would love to fire up my phone in the morning and read an honest story here… whether it’s well carved or not… but let it be an honest story

      June 11, 02:49 Reply

      There’s a thin line between a honest story which shows evolution (acknowledgment of poor judgement) and one that abruptly ends at ridiculing someone.

      I want to believe that the tone of the post was what set off the avalanche of insults. Otherwise peeps would have offered constructive criticism.
