this could be years of being on deviantart talking, but that's the kind of thing that makes me wary its a kink thing.

That's what I was coming down to say-- when I see thin characters drawn fat, it's almost ALWAYS a fetish, which makes me intensely uncomfortable as a fat person. One of my favorite characters from anything ever IS fat, and I hate that one of the popular artists who actually draws him that way is... VERY fetish-y about it.

BUT, some characters, it works for me-- I've liked artists who have taken cartoon/anime casts and added body shape diversity, but it's not just about drawing thin characters as bigger, it's about taking like... five or six girls with identical bodies and then saying 'okay, it makes sense for X to be shorter/fatter/more muscular'. Especially if it's something where everyone has the same body type but they TALK about a character as if they're fat.

It could be an artist who has a fetish, but it could also be an artist who is fat themselves and wants more diversity in body types, especially with cartoon/anime or book characters, where there's not an actor (it would probably be weird and off-putting to me for it to basically be 'X actor but fat' art? That would freak me out without that fetish spidey sense kicking in). And if it's not that you're picking up on a fetish thing... is it that they're not good at drawing fat bodies and it's hitting you wrong because you live in one? Even when it's not a fetish thing/when it's a canon fat character, I find it SUPER off-putting to see characters drawn very ROUND but without any sense of *weight*! They just look sort of balloony and unreal, and it's not always a case of fetish art, sometimes it's just that someone never learned how to draw fat. But either way it sets me off and I hate to see it.
