What does Chub mean?
A chub is a larger, heavier-set gay or bi man, part of a proud, body-positive community.
Also: chubs
Chub describes a bigger, heavier-set body type and the welcoming community built around it. Chub culture is closely tied to body positivity and self-acceptance.
The scene has its own spaces and its own admirers — often called chasers — who are specifically into larger guys. The vocabulary helps people find each other without ambiguity.
Used within the community, chub is a proud, affirming label. As always, people define it for themselves.
"Big guy, proud chub."
