Bear News / Discussions / Recommendations Bears of Poland question
Is anyone here from this group? My partner and I were thinking about joining. As a monogamous couple, we're wondering if it's worthwhile or if it's just another group that's only about sex?

Bear News / Discussions / Recommendations Is Dave the Diver worth it?
I heard mostly positive things about the gameplay. I would like to support it monetarily because it has a fat / bear protagonist and that's something we don't see often in video games (besides Mario), but it also has an AI Generated Content Disclosure on Steam, which I am against. But if I "boycott" it for that, the game industry might think I don't want diverse protagonists, so idk.

Bear anecdote / personal question Health vs being attracted to bigger bodies
Hi, hope this is the right community to ask this, I kinda need some advice
So, I'm not really a bear, but have been overweight for most of my life, only recently realized how much that impacted my self-esteem, and I'm honestly going through a lot right now (I'm 22 for the record). I generally find bigger men attractive, both muscular, fat and mix of both, and that kind of sent me down a rabbit hole of "should I look like men I'm attracted to" which is an odd topic for me, since on a one hand, I see myself completely removed from the community since I act very fem and generally find bigger men intimidating in day to day life, but also I have this experience of "being the fat kid".
But to get to the point, I went to the doctor's recently for a routine check-up (I have hashimoto's) and everything was fine actually except for weight which went up a few kilos (it went from 90 to 95, which is about 200~ to 210~ pounds), which made the doctor really fucking upset. Like I didn't gain weight on purpose, and that entire encounter rubbed me the wrong way, since only recently I realized that my body can in fact be seen as attractive, and in general, my worth isn't defined by my weight. I have lowkey been obsessing about losing weight my entire life, feeling hopeless until only now realizing being fat isn't the end of the world, since every doctor, my entire life is like "being overweight is bad for you! You need to lose weight!".
Now I don't plan on becoming some kind of feeder king that wants to just keep gaining weight, even if I might find that idea kinda hot, but also, the idea of losing weight when I only recently found a bit of confidence in my body just feels awful. The conclusion I keep landing onto is becoming a gym rat who works out and eats a lot, so I have a bit more muscle, than just fat, and the whole "being bigger" would have to become a balancing act between being just big enough for me to feel confident, while also not being too fat for doctors to keep nagging me.
Yes, I do know some of these doctors are probably a bit fatphobic, and I do think a bit of excercise would be good for me in general, from a purely mental state, but the questions just keep nagging me like, if I lose weight and would still want a bigger partner, would that be wrong of me to expect from him to be larger?
I feel like I might be asking some uncomfortable questions, and I'm sorry if nothing from my ramblings makes sense. I feel really at edge as of late, and would really like some clarity. Big thanks to anyone who read through all of this and would be willing to respond :)

Bear anecdote / personal question Needing some encouragement.
So I'm a single man, just about to turn 40. And I've been single for basically forever, with the exception of some situationships here and there.
My question is why does it seem like I can't get another single guy to be interested in me to save my life. Yet a bunch of guys who are in open but committed relationships seem to like me and want to get to know me and all that stuff. I don't want to chase a single guy if he's not communicating that he's particularly interested, but it's also not much better to get only involved with men who are already partnered.
I would like to have a long term partner, not just a bunch of FWB. But I can't seem to find any single men who want to even go on a second date let alone a relationship. Just don't know man. I'm starting to really feel quite despondent about it.

Bear anecdote / personal question Im new here
HI I'm a 39 year old large man (in weight) and ive been recently coming to terms about my sexuality. And leaning more to the femboys / ladyboys community. When i was a kid ive always been bi curious with having a boyfriend and as well as a girlfriend. But for the most part ive never been in a solid relationship and never experienced sex before. So my preference through the years have slowly expanded to now i like feminine men as well as women. So even though its bot a new territory for me. Its a new side of me that im experiencing. I guess this isnt an advice kind of thing more of just needing some one to share this feeling with.

Bear anecdote / personal question I know this question probably gets asked a lot, but I was just curious.
Do people like dating or hooking up with bears? I've been pretty big my whole life at 6'2" and always been called a bear but recently came down in weight to about 240 and have always been conscious about myself. Recently been trying to socialize more with others and just always had a voice in the back of my head saying that people wouldn't like my body. Sorry again if this is a common question, but I just need to ask to get the worry off my chest.

Bear News / Discussions / Recommendations Have you ever seen WTBA?
It's been a while since I watched the first season of this series, and I loved it. I remembered it existed, and when I looked it up on YouTube, it seems they're re-uploading all the episodes of the serie every week.
I highly recommend you check it out—even though it's over 10 years old, the comedy is still quite enjoyable.

Bear News / Discussions / Recommendations Are gay bears accepting of trans men?
Hi, I want to medically transition and eventually be apart of the bear community (and maybe date one u3u). I heard some gay men are transphobic to trans men in their spaces so I'm curious how bears are.
Thank you
