BBW - sexist term!!

Jump to newest

over a year ago

Overheard a few couples chatting in LC

"Eww I didn't fancy him - beer belly and tight shirt isn't a good look"

"Yeah she has curves in all the right places and a great rack"

Visually they both looked very similar in terms of build. Why does the woman get a positive spin on it with the BBW tag and blokes don't?

I've never heard of women being attracted to 'big' guys especially whereas some guys look for this build almost as a fetish. Weird.

Because curves are sexy on women... And not so much on men... Nothing to grab at... That being said skinny men are hot...

I've heard the BBW equivalent for the men is: BHM- Big Handsome Man

A big belly on a man can put his goods "in the shade" so to speak. And we all want to show ourselves in the best light.

Big boobs and hips of bbw female can symbolise fertility and breast feeding so they look like a good mate.

Big belly guy makes him lool too slow and unathletic to be a good hunter and therefore not a good mate.

I don't mind a " BBW " @ all. Infact, i've had great sex with afew.

overweight, fat, chunky, chubby, stocky, obese, large, cuddly, big

i've been called them all

none of them particularly bother me now but that hasn't always been the case

i think people need to be careful when using the term 'fat' though

by careful, i guess i mean respectful and/or thoughtful

it's ok to call yourself fat, but hearing someone else say it can be confidence damaging

not because as a stand alone term it is that offensive, but because it is usually coupled with other negative words

fat and ugly

fat and smelly

getting back to the OP however, no i don't feel BBW is sexist - it is no more than a descriptive

and i have enough labels to choose from already, so personally i can live without acronyms being added to the list too

"BBW is no more than a euphism for fat."

Indeed. It's political correctness gone mad.

I am fat. It's a fact. Not a request for compliments.... or put downs. Just a fact.

It doesn't matter what words other people use to describe me. I'm just me. Some will like me, some won't.

i think as men are more obsessed with sex, there is way more porn aimed at men than woman, thats why bbw is a mans fetish..

i have a friend who always goes for chunky guys

Don't see the sexism in it. Then is calling a woman a woman or a man a man sexist?

Don't like any of the 'box' labels much truth be told.

Nonsense. Men are as different in this respect as women. I've always been extremely choosy and wouldn't have dreamed of going with any Sue, Mary or Ann who came along even in my teens and early twenties.

The term for men, as mentioned above, is BHM.

We give skinny guys a miss. A guy has to have a little meat on him. Pretty much the same for girls, skinnies need not apply.

There's ugly people of all shapes and sizes. Meaning ugly on the inside...

Some people get an inflated sense of self worth when they get hundreds of mails and compliments from hundreds of horny desperate men......

I had a lover who was a large guy, and he was the sofetest, gentlest man i had ever met, kind and funny... thankfully I never place too much on looks, I prefer to get to know someone, as this is where you find their true beauty. I have to admit I am sucker for someone who makes me laugh, or at least smile....

"BBW is no more than a euphism for fat."

I'm a curvy woman, and I hate the term BBW!! Similarly, when a lady I know recently called me 'cuddly', I requested this never occurred again, as I hate this term too. Id rather be called fat tbh, at least it's straight to the point with no ambiguity!

A friend of mine says that when he tells people he likes men that very few react.

But when he tells them that he exclusively likes FAT MEN then they usually don't get it.

He reckons it's like having to 'come out' twice.

He had one colleague tell him he was 'sick' for fancying fat people
