Origins

Hello there.

If you've stumbled upon this blog - and goodness knows how you have - welcome to my virtual sort of home-y thing. Take a seat - ah, yes, sorry; I've been meaning to tidy that up for days. Just put it-- yeah, there will do. There we go.

Oh, what lovely shoes you have. Are they real leather?

Ah, sorry - I'm getting distracted somewhat. I'm supposed to be introducing myself, right?

Well, yes. My name is - ah, nearly got you there. No, my real name is a secret; but you can call me BFG. That stands for Big Fat Gay, which you might also notice in your browser's title bar. That's me. Hello!

As my name so emotively describes, I'm gay. And I'm fat. And, also, quite big - although in which aspect I'll leave you guessing (here's a hint, though: it's not my cock).

I am, at the time of writing, 24 years old. I live in London, England, which is a marvelous city that I love being in. If you're expecting the sort of 'real stories of a gay man in London town!!!' blog, may I recommend you visit Gay Banker, which is awesome and brilliant; two adjectives that you'll only be using to describe this blog with the prefix 'not particularly'.

Yes, what you'll find here are real stories. They are somewhat of a document about the life of this particular gay man, who just happens to live in London. The difference, and what I hope you might find illuminating, is so neatly wrapped up in this blog's headline. I'm fat. And, let me tell you, life as a fat gay man is really quite different to the stereotype. There's as much, if perhaps not more, discrimination than in the straight world. You can throw fashion and looking good out of the window: your wardrobe is now exclusively from High and Mighty, son. And don't even think about trying to find a boyfriend.

Okay, okay, it's not that bad really. But it is different. You could be the biggest slut in the world inside, but you're more likely to have the sex life of an eunuch if you're carrying around a lot extra in the waist area.

And so, here's it is: Big Fat Gay, the blog about the life of a, well, fat gay man. Don't worry, it's not all going to be moaning - it's, hopefully, going to be very light hearted (and self depreciating). It's going to be illuminating, I hope. But definitely enjoyable.

So, settle yourself in and write me a comment. It'd be nice to know that someone's hearing me out there... :)
