Do some women want to get fat?

Some underweight women may wish to gain weight, however few women in the west wish to "get fat".

There are, however, some societies that regard obesity as a sign of beauty and women actively gain weight in order to become fat. One notable one is Mauritania, an African country. There are also men and women who derive sexual pleasure from getting fat. They're known as "gainers" or "feedees". The former simply likes overeating and getting fat. The latter wants a significant other to fatten him/her up until very fat.
