Chubby Chaser: Difference between revisions

* In the [[Discworld]] series, the Senior Wrangler of Unseen University is implied to be one. In ''[[Discworld/Hogfather|Hogfather]]'' he tries to court the plump and somewhat frumpy Cheerful Fairy, and in ''[[Discworld/The Last Continent|The Last Continent]]'' he's frequently distracted by thoughts of Mrs. Whitlow, the University's fat, middle-aged head housekeeper.

* In ''[[CSI]]'' S05-E16 ''Big Middle'', a male victim turns out to have this fetish, although the death ultimately proves to be accidental (a [[Big Beautiful Woman|BBW]] [[Go Out With a Bang|passed out during sex on top of him and he was suffocated]]). There is certainly an element of [[Asshole Victim]], however, as he's a womanizer with a low view of women as a whole.

* In ''[[Just Shoot Me]]'' S04-E13 ''Dial 'N' For Murder'', Maya is happy that she has started dating a man who dislikes the waif-thin look that her father's fashion magazine promotes. Unfortunately, she discovers that while she agrees with him, she doesn't want to let him fatten her up.

* In ''[[Bones]]'' S5-E08 ''The Foot In The Foreclosure'', the [[Victim of the Week]] was a former chubby girl who had been a regular at a Chubby Chaser hookup bar. After she lost the weight, she went back as a chaser.

* ''[[Cheers]]'': A hot woman goes after Norm, to the befuddlement of the others at the bar (especially Sam). Paul (one of the minor characters who had an occasional [[Day in The Limelight]], and who is also a chunky guy) identifies her as a "chubby-chaser."

** In fact, one of the plot points of the episode is using a water pistol full of the instant obesity liquid to threaten the girl who accidentally made the fat monster. At the end of the episode, we see the Janitor on a date with an extremely attractive woman. When she leaves to visit the bathroom, he immediately produces another water pistol and squeezes it into her drink.

* "Three Hundred Pounds Of Hongry" is from the perspective of one. The [[Big Beautiful Woman|gender of the person being discussed]] [[Big Handsome Man|depends on the exact song version]]; one way or another, they're definitely a [[Big Eater]] (and the narrator finds it endearing).

* ''[[wikipedia:Unskinny Bop|Unskinny Bop]]'' ([[The Nineties|1990]]) by [[Hair Metal]] band [[wikipedia:Poison (band)|Poison]] is likely about the viewpoint character attempting to pick up a [[Big Beautiful Woman]].
