When are you classed as a BBW?
Jump to: Newest in thread
So I’ve noticed on a few profiles there will be something about not being into BBW’s… That’s cool, everyone has a preference…
But at what size is someone classed as being a BBW? I’m a UK size 14, definitely not skinny and have some wobbly bits - you can see yourself on my pics…
It just kinda puts me off messaging as it really winds me up when people don’t read my profile, and don’t want people to think I’ve ignored their preferences  |

It depends on height, body shape, and build I'd say. Some women carry weight differently (and better) than others. A size 14 is a medium, I'd say at least a 16, but then that's average, so 18+ maybe? I don't know. But a size 18 5ft0 women with a tiny frame will look much "larger" than a 6ft woman with a heavier build.
Some women are all tummy, others it goes to boobs and bum. Too many variables xx |

I agree with this, there's no way to finely tune what makes someone a BBW as everyone is differnet. |

I'm size 20 waist, size 22 hip with 38dd/e boobs and 5ft4. So a BBW. But I try to get away with "curvy" as I still have hourglass curves. Just too much tummy. I look best bent over  xx |

Yeah that’s a really good point… I’m very boob heavy and have a bit of a tum… I guess people’s idea of what a BBW looks like is different too. Ah well, I’ll just lust from afar and hope they hit me up some day rather than contacting them   |

You've got a wonderful figure! What size are your boobs? You look a little top heavy (in a good way), but if you dress wrong then big boobs can make you look big everywhere as clothes hang off them badly, or you need to wear larger sizes to cover the chest. Skater and wrap around tops always look great on a lady with bussom, especially if she has hips too. You look great OP, don't worry xx |

There's no internationally agreed set size but I would not say a size 12/14 would be a bbw.
Think there used to be a thing about it being over a size 20 but as women's clothing sizes and Wright carrying etc fluctuates so much its hard to quantify it.
Others say its how you as the lady feels. If you feel more comfortable saying you are a bbw then say it. It isn't for others to classify your body. Most men gave no clue about female bodies/clothing sizes anyway. |

Aww thanks everyone I'm very self conscious at the moment, I'm bigger than I was and feeling fat. My hips and bum are what's saving me, but I won't meet feeling this big. I'm not after sympathy, I just need to get off my plentiful arse! Xx |

I think the term is related to the breast size , as you can get small ladies with big breasts and large ladies with small ones, I think body size is irrelevant when using the term bbw |

personal theory - when men put that in a profile , they usually mean they like slim - as in, size 6-10. I wouldn't say i was BbW but equally I am not size 10, and I don't want to be with someone who isn't that into curves, so I give them a swerve |

When someone claims to be, it's just natural curves, and we all have wobbly bits.that can be explored and enjoyed. |

Incidentally....you look gorgeous. |

I've moved up from BBW to SSBBW mainly due to curvy or voluptuous woman being considered BBW.
I carry a bit of "ugly fat" under my chin, around my tummy and inner thighs so I'm wayyyyy past the curvy category.

I know the feeling, I'm thinking of stopping swinging as I'm too self conscious. I was about to go to my first party when covid struck and now I don't think I can do this anymore. |

Same here. Before covid I was fucking loads of people (still selective) and gagging for club nights and gangbangs, now I can't face it. I've had 1 meet recently. I don't even bother with the pill anymore. Xx |

Aww thank you I’m a 36G so yeah top heavy for sure
I’m not worried about my figure so much, more if it would be disrespectful to message someone who states they’re not into BBW… if that makes sense?
You look incredible in your pics too! And a gorgeous face to match! |

I'd kill for your boobs!
You're not a BBW, or even close hun. Perhaps just say that you're not looking for men that prefer skinny girls. You're a busty average xx |

"I think the term is related to the breast size , as you can get small ladies with big breasts and large ladies with small ones, I think body size is irrelevant when using the term bbw"
Except it was a term coined in America specifically related to women with big bodies. Nothing to do with boobs.
The terms "Big Beautiful Women" and "BBW" were coined by Carole Shaw in 1979, when she launched BBW Magazine, a fashion and lifestyle magazine for "plus-size" women.[2] BBW Magazine trademarked the term Big Beautiful Woman, which was later transferred to Dimensions Magazine.[3]

I have no idea, im a 10 bottom half and 14 sometimes 16 top to fit the boobs. Ive had guys call me petite, tiny, curvy, small and bbw. When ive seen that in a profile ive just moved straight on. The last thing i need in my life is to feel i have to question my bodysize to know if its ok or not to message a guy. Some say "love big boobs" Some say mine are big, but they are tiny compared to some ladies on here. If it makes you question yourself, nothing worth that  |

I’ve been very self conscious recently as I put 10 lbs on in lockdown and it seems to have gone all on my stomach, I considered coming off for a while but then decided to ease myself back in with a few people we have met before, still nerve wracking but has helped. As a size 16 I very firmly put myself in the BBW range but personally think a size 14 is more curvy than BBW. However it is what you feel comfortable doing. You could always wink the person which shows interest, then if they don’t wink back no harm has been done.

I’ve always classed Bbw as size 18+ I’m 18-20 so pop myself in that category and in my name so there is no mistaking it.
People will always interpret it how they want, maybe wink the guy on the profile and see if he follows it up? |

Usually I’d say a BBW is someone 18+. Having said that i’m 6ft tall and when I’m a size 18 I don’t think anyone would consider me a BBW. So I suppose it depends on your height. In general though it’s the fuller bodied girls. |

But a size 18 5ft0 women with a tiny frame will look much "larger" than a 6ft woman with a heavier build.

I'm not sure you know. I'd say maybe if you're just a bit more voluptuous and carrying a good bit of fat.
I would class myself as chubby/bbw as I'm plus size, a size 16 with huge hips, fat thighs, butt and boobs and a bit of a belly. I do have a smaller waist though and don't carry most of my weight in the middle, but I think looking at me most would say I am big.
I guess my advice would be don't get caught up on the labels! It doesn't really matter a great deal at the end of the day. It's a difficult thing to pinpoint a starting area for I think. |

Think I'm there with you.
My shape is "round" with undulating rolls rather than curves although he would disagree with me. I have huge boobs as well - so I kind of balance out!
I describe myself as BBW & large on my profile but I do think I'm between BBW & SSBBW
You are all beautiful women in my eyes however you describe yourselves
But whatever I am |

Its a hard one, as I'd say it goes on hight,weight,build ect and mind set
I'm 5'8 and a size 28/30,24 stone but carry hugely round my middle, iv got tiny tits for a fat bird and wear super skinny leg jeans and would say I'm now in to the ssbbw range but when I was a size 18 I carried that well and looked fit and healthy and wouldn't of even classed myself as a bbw |

Having been a UK clothes size 28, now comfortably a size 12/14 I consider myself curvy not bbw, I definitely used to be! I don't judge people by their weight at all, I'm attracted to the person, male or female regardless of weight. If someone accepts me with all my wobbly bits and we have a connection then I'm thrilled with that. I think it's such a shame that people say no bbw when women of all shapes and sizes are awesome and so much fun! Size does not make the person. X |

"I'm size 20 waist, size 22 hip with 38dd/e boobs and 5ft4. So a BBW. But I try to get away with "curvy" as I still have hourglass curves. Just too much tummy. I look best bent over xx
You look gorgeous Jessica!! I think you're rocking those curves!"
Thanks darling xx |

I think the term bbw is thrown around far too much some times. Does it matter if a lady carries extra weight or has wobbly bits. When i 1st joined fab i hated being referred to as a bbw as i was so self conscious about my body but now i see it as ive grown 2 babies and i am who i am. Im a curvy girl with big boobs, big bum, and a wobbly tummy and i like what i see in the mirror now. I think all ladies are beautiful in their own right |

BBW has to be at least a size 20. 16-18 chubby. 12 and less anorexic.
Question: Why are ladies sizes always in even numbers. Nobody is ever described as a size 17 or a size 19.
No skinny is not something in this house. |

Size "12 and less anorexic"? Are you for real??
As a fat lass myself, I despise the term BBW. But I equally despise people on here dissing slimmer women. |

"Well I'm a size 18 so does that qualify? "
I am a size 18/20 now,
I consider myself to be a bbw,
have done at my smallest (16)
and at my largest (26)
I find size 16 and over, up to a 24/26 to be very very desirable... my idea of a bbw if you ask me, but I appreciate it might be different things to different people. |

I think it's 18 and over....
But I've known women with big boobs and a small waist classed from some as BBW!
Some people need their eyes testing on here! |

Wow! Well this thread certainly took off while I was away
Just to clarify… I’m in no way saying I wouldn’t want to be called a BBW, or that it’s a bad thing… I was just curious as to the general consensus, and if I would be considered one or not.
I genuinely think all bodies are beautiful, but I also know not everyone thinks the same way |

Don't worry OP, I wasn't having a pop at you. I just hate the term, myself.
And you look amazing, so call yourself whatever you like  x |

People have all sorts of preferences. For example, a lady I knew had a fantastic pair of breasts (and she liked showing them off) and she was definitely BBW. I'd always go off the NHS guideline. If you enter your data and it says overweight - then I'd say that is BBW. |

I’m 5ft 3, I’m a size 22, 40F boobs with a big butt!!!
I definitely class myself as a bbw. I don’t go short of offers and get compliments on my bum.
I sound like a hypocrite here, because I don’t go for skinny guys (afraid I’ll snap them if I ride them, and always found bigger built guys more attractive), but there’s more to everyone on this site than their size. Everyone on this site with be sexy to someone else. I’ve personally found that being on the scene has built up my body confidence and self confidence |

Difficult to quantify someone who is a size 16 and 5 ft 9 would like completely different to a size 16 who is 5 ft. People carry weight differently as well. I often describe myself as curvy but I'm carrying a lot of weight on my stomach at the moment so I would possibly class myself as bbw now  |

I'm just fat, I really don't like the term. I think that there's not a set size, people carry weight differently, have differing perceptions. If it's a label you want to use, do so. If not, don't.
So yeah, I'm not going to say if you are one or not. That's down to you. |

"So I’ve noticed on a few profiles there will be something about not being into BBW’s… That’s cool, everyone has a preference…
But at what size is someone classed as being a BBW? I’m a UK size 14, definitely not skinny and have some wobbly bits - you can see yourself on my pics…
It just kinda puts me off messaging as it really winds me up when people don’t read my profile, and don’t want people to think I’ve ignored their preferences "
I think 20 and over is considered BBW |

6 and below isn’t anorexic if you’re very petite. We should probably stay away from using medical terms for one end of the spectrum unless we’re going to start calling us bigger girls morbidly obese or super morbidly obese. Not sure anyone would like that.
As has been said numerous times on this thread, a dress size determines nothing because it depends on height and build. |

I agree. Some people don’t seem to realise they don’t need to be derogatory about someone to compliment another. We all are who we are. |

To me it more about fun friendly sexually creative attitude more than the size or shape of a woman I suppose the term BBW is often used to make folks aware a lady is not skinny twig and hoping to avoid any abusive comments which I think body shamming is very disgusting & totally uncalled for no matter what situation
Happy,friendly,loving considerate,caring, compassionate lady's are the true epitome of beauty in the eyes of truly intelligent folks
What say you? |

"It depends on height, body shape, and build I'd say. Some women carry weight differently (and better) than others. A size 14 is a medium, I'd say at least a 16, but then that's average, so 18+ maybe? I don't know. But a size 18 5ft0 women with a tiny frame will look much "larger" than a 6ft woman with a heavier build.
Some women are all tummy, others it goes to boobs and bum. Too many variables xx"
Yeah, definitely too many variables.
Maybe a long term intensive study needs to take place.  |

Do you not think the term ‘skinny twig’ is offensive? It’s not just bigger girls that we need to protect from body shaming, it’s everyone. |

"I've moved up from BBW to SSBBW mainly due to curvy or voluptuous woman being considered BBW.
I carry a bit of "ugly fat" under my chin, around my tummy and inner thighs so I'm wayyyyy past the curvy category.
"
No such thing as an ugly fats. The more to squeeze the better in my opinion. I'd say a "proper" BBW starts at 20 and ssbbw starts at 28 |

"I’ve always classed Bbw as size 18+ I’m 18-20 so pop myself in that category and in my name so there is no mistaking it.
People will always interpret it how they want, maybe wink the guy on the profile and see if he follows it up?"
I have winked a couple of guys and had good results so yes try this but don't get attached to whether they reply. Wink and forget it. |

Yes let's not start attacking anyones body to make others feel better. Some guys like thinner girls others fatter girls. It is what it is. |

I like this answer because I have noticed abusive terms like skinny, anorexic, twig, fear of 'skinny men being snapped' etc creeping in when we mention size. If we suggested that somebody above a certain size is fat - there would be real problems. Abuse is abuse. |

OP I think you have hit the nail on the head. Looking at everyone’s comments different people are different views on what a BBW is. You will be a BBW to some, but not many I think. Mainly just a BW. Beautiful woman. |

BBW term in the early days of Internet, 1996 or so, was for women who had to shop, at the plus size stores,(in the USA) super bbw was for women who were larger than what the plus sized stores sold.
Now Alot of UK stores,(I immigrated in 1999) have a curve/plus/extra Section.
16+ is where I'd personally start the Bbw term, but it does depend on physical traits too. |
