is BBW just another way of saying fat chick?

Wtf, she looks great... She has all the curves in the right places which is what matters the most... Not even close to being a BBW -.-

She's a size 16 and can only shop at a select few stores. So yeah, she's a BBW. She might not look it, but that doesn't mean she isn't. When you have to shop at Lane Bryant or Torrid you're a big girl there's no 2 ways about it. People carry weight differently obviously, but she's a plus size girl. plus sized = bbw. A lot of females who claim they're BBWs really need to call themselves what they really are which is a SSBBW (super sized BBW)

She's "thick"... definitely not what I'd call a BBW.
 
Well I'm not going to start posting pics and playing 'hot or not' here... But just because I see BBW doesn't mean I'm going to reject someone out of hand. I've been with too many of them to know better...

And I'm very happy for my time with them.

Kudos to you, that's your thing. Others of us don't find obese people attractive.
 
It's just another way for those fat disgusting creatures to justify their existence. This whole "fat acceptance" fad is just pathetic, and it makes me sick to think that these 'people' are trying to kid themselves into thinking their bodies are beautiful. The aren't. Everyone knows this.
 
How does not liking fat chicks mean that you like anorexic women?

That's the most common comeback for hating on fatties. "Oh so you think those bony anorexic chicks are hot?!" Compared to a fatty? Absolutely. At least anorexic chicks still resemble human beings. Ever see a fatty laying on the beach?

S/he was implying that a BBW was not taking care of their bodies and such wasn't attracted to them. I'm opposing that to models who don't eat and take care of their bodies but are considered attractive.

I said I'm not attracted to people who don't take care of their bodies. You just confirmed that's the case with anorexic women as well. I'm almost certain your brilliant ability at deducing would lead you to think that I don't find anorexic women attractive, either. But maybe you aren't that smart after all.

They are still taking better care of their bodies than fatties, and they are getting paid well for it too. The only place people pay to look at fatties is at the carnival. Everyone knows this.

You should correct that and say you like regular sized chicks. I've known plenty of females over the years who didn't take care of their bodies. But due to good genes and metabolism you would think they ate super healthy and worked out every day. And they did neither. My thinking here is you could give a shit less if they take care of their bodies or not you just care that they look like they do.

Your thinking is wrong. Mostly.

Sure, I certainly find fit women physically attractive, and I'd definitely hook up with them. But as far as a relationship goes? Nope.
 
I'm not saying she isn't a BBW, I'm just saying that I think she's totally hot. My view on BBW is not her though personally. BBW means rolls of fat in my eyes, which she does not have. She has a nice smooth body shape, with the extra fat nicely spread and laid out in a manner that is extremely attractive and in the right places. *BOING*

It's not the weight as much as it is the waist/hip ratio. That girl still has a great waist/hip ratio. More often then not though, BBW's have too much in the waist which isn't attractive to anyone.

That being said, I probably couldn't date a women who's mother was fat, even if she herself was skinny.

No point in arguing with the kiddies. Give them about 20 years or so and most of them will change their stance on what really makes a woman beautiful. That's a guarantee.
 
Oh, I can smell a good time
on the horizon. Oh, that's it.


Slice me off a piece and serve it up hot.
I'm next in line.
