My favorite Dan Savage writing is in the NAAFA chapter of Skipping Towards Gomorrah:

Teresa’s marriage began to fall apart when her husband started putting on weight. “You want to know one of the dirty little secrets of NAAFA?” Teresa said. “There’s a lot of talk about accepting people of different sizes and how beautiful fat is and fat people are. Well, most BBWs aren’t attracted to fat men. I know I’m not. Most of us want nice, good-looking men. Thin men.” Why? “For all the usual looks reasons. When I was really big, I would look at my body and feel disgusted. I don’t want to feel that way when I look at my husband’s body.”
