Yes, I'm the person behind the original wiki. You know me, the person whose cinema-going record is 200 first-time trips in a year, who has appeared on almost every social network in existence, can no longer draw to save their life and is currently living life safely as a man, but finding comfort online as a woman. I'll just check up here from time to time, maybe even submit some content!
Why I'm so into this stuff
Ever since I was a child and nearing the age of 10, I for some reason found the whole "cartoons bloating up" gig to be fascinating, whether it be the scene from Tweety's High-Flying Adventure in which Tweety rolls like a ball and knocks out cats as if they were skittles or that scene in Medabots. I even had cartoons of my own imagination, one with an episode called "Fatty Fat Fat". Sometimes I would even draw characters getting fat.
One day, while searching for stuff about all the bizarre things that happened to Dexter in Dexter's Laboratory, I came across a website where I knew I was not alone. Throughout the years I continued to draw fatness, even taking inspiration from the Sitting Ducks book, and when I stumbled across somebody's expansion artwork in 2006, I knew I really wasn't alone. A year later I found out that this was a fetish, which I found weird at first but over the years it turns out that I was becoming more and more attracted to fat girls than I ever thought possible. I started a Yahoo group about my interest in late 2008.
Some time in the 2010's, I visited two groups called WeightGain Central, which kept moving to various group sites, and Cartoon Gluttony, which has been a Yahoo group for a decade. When WGCentral started moderating pictures, I lost my patience and started a whole blog on Tumblr where I could share every single cartoon expansion I could find, male or female (girls weren't allowed). This year, it has become a Wiki that you can help expand. It's great to know that I'm not alone in this fanbase for such a stupid obsession.
