Unintentionally (?) Erotic Stock Clips (Patreon)

***

UPDATE: Apparently video I'd originally hosted via DailyMotion was removed soon afterwards. I didn't get a specific indication as to why. For now, I've replaced it with an unlisted YouTube-hosted version. You'll have to click-through to view it rather than view it as embedded video. 

And, as a backup for that, I have also attached to this post a 1080p version of the video you can download directly.

You may have already seen it, but a few weeks ago Maverick (re)started a thread at Curvage flagging for attention the curious phenomenon of “stock footage” video clips focused on weight gain and fatness themes. Presumably these were created to appeal to marketers of diet and exercise stuff, for use in advertising. Nonetheless, the scenes they depict sometimes play out like short form weight gain erotica. The specifics vary from clip to clip, but in general they show women, ranging from slightly chubby to majorly fat, looking frustrated or mopey as they struggle against ill-fitting clothes, awkwardly attempt to exercise, and survey their softened physiques.

Adding to the curiosity and amusement, many of these clips feature titles and associated keywords that read like kinky weight gain humiliation haiku. I can’t help but wonder whether those descriptions were reflected in the scripts the models read for filming or if they are just something tacked on afterwards like catty commentary in search term form. Relatedly, as Maverick mentioned in a side comment to me: how might the models, some of whom are barely chunky, feel when they are featured in a clip labeled "miserable obese fat girl laments ruined figure in mirror?" For me, the fact that none of this—at least superficially—is intended to be erotic brings an extra spice of voyeuristic authenticity.

For your enjoyment and convenience, I have assembled a little compilation of examples, taken from the free preview materials available at ShutterStock. The sometimes poetically snarky and perverse descriptions associated with each clip appear as superimposed text, and have been only lightly edited by me for structure.

If you like this little video, check out Maverick’s Curvage thread for direct links to several other similar clips and maybe go browse ShutterStock’s clip library yourself. Searching for terms like “weight gain,” “fat woman,” etc. will turn up many results. If you find any gems, maybe share a link here and/or in the Curvage thread.
