Chubby Chaser/Playing With


 * Basic Trope: Someone is attracted to people who are overweight or obese.
 * Played Straight: Bob lusts after Alice, a BBW.
 * Exaggerated: Bob thinks that Alice is still far too thin to be attractive, despite her being twice his size.
 * Justified: People can be attracted to all different body types, and Bob likes 'em full-figured. Furthermore, he is not only attracted to Alice physically, but likes her personality too.
 * Inverted:
 * Bob only likes women who are thin.
 * Bob is a chubby man who lusts after the rail-thin Alice.
 * Subverted: Bob likes Alice who is, at worst, Hollywood Pudgy.
 * Double Subverted:
 * But he likes her figure, compared to that of her size-2 best friend.
 * Bob finds Alice attractive. But he reveals that he finds her attractive despite her skinny physique, not because of it.
 * Deconstructed: Bob is attracted to Alice, but doesn't want to be seen with her in public.
 * Reconstructed:
 * Bob gradually comes to terms with his attraction to Alice.
 * Bob might not want to be seen with Alice, but Charlotte is happy to date her in public.
 * Parodied: Bob goes to Weight Watchers' meetings to pick up women.
 * Lampshaded: Alice, a slim woman, wants to ask Bob out. But her friend Charlotte points out that ''Every woman Bob ever dated got fat within the month."
 * Averted:
 * Bob does not have any Love Interests in-story.
 * There are no women in the story who are fat or even a little chubby.
 * Bob has no weight preference whatsoever.
 * Enforced: There are no skinny women in the series, or skinny women are portrayed as unappealing.
 * Invoked: Bob puts an ad in the personals or uses a dating website specifically to find a Big Beautiful Woman.
 * Defied: Bob thinks an obese woman is unhealthy and unattractive, and only dates unhealthily skinny women.
 * Discussed: Danny is talking to Bob about "That episode of Family Guy, where Lois gets fat for Peter." Bob, who claims not to understand the appeal of full-figured women, later falls in love at first sight with the new girl, Alice, and acts like Peter, asking her to gain more weight.
 * Conversed: Two characters talk about how annoying it is that their neighbourhood seems to have absolutely no full-figured women.
 * Played For Laughs: There are constant corny sight gags about Bob trying to pick up Alice and failing, and buying her enormous slices of cake and so on...
 * Played For Drama: Alice has always felt bad about her size, and has tried every diet and trick out there. Bob finds her attractive, and helps her become more confident in herself.
