Where do you draw the line between Curvy and "BBW"/Fat?
I'm a big guy. 6' tall, 230lbs, 52" chest, 38" waist. I have problems fitting in an economy seat when I fly but I can't help my skeletal structure. Even when my weight dropped under 100lbs because of a three month coma I still had a 50" chest although my waist was about 28" when I woke up.
I don't insist on airlines giving me a second seat because of my size, although I have purchased a second on occasion for long haul flights. Note: purchased.
If you're 350lbs and 5' tall because of how you eat that's a) not attractive and b) not the airline/hotel/restaurant/bar/etc responsibility to pander to you. And there's a massive difference between being "big and beautiful" and being "obese and going to die because of it".
Like any other mental disorder, just because you're deluded enough to believe it doesn't mean I have to.
I consider all BBW "fat" I don't think there is a line. I think it was made up to make bigger girls feel a little more comfortable with their skin
Completely agree, why sugar coat it
Exactly, it is all about trying to create positive body image, but nobody is really being fooled. The only guys interested in Fat girls are the guys not able to get fit girls.

Anything over 300lbs is too big for anyone not 7 foot tall. Under that it's kind of up for debate. I think women get too hung up on weight. The last woman I was attracted to was 5'11" and 225lbs. Guys are less concerned about a woman's weight and more concerned with how fat she is. The fact that she was 5'11" probably allowed her to weight more, be fatter. Cause some women just got it like that. Some women when they put on weight it just goes to all the right places and makes them more attractive.
If people choose to be fat, that’s their right. As long as they don’t feel entitled to put their issues on others. My main problem with that “BBW” nonsense is that it’s frankly sexist. There’s no body positivity for men. Fat men are still punchlines and cautionary tales, exclusively. Nobody’s cheering for proud, brave naked fat men. And nobody ever will. So in fairness, i don’t think anyone should be cheering for fat women.
I understand what you are saying, but some people would say "Dad Bod" is the male equivalent.
It’s not. There are no fashion and glamour magazines glorifying fat dudes. Hollywood isn’t celebrating fat men in films, shows and music. And women who claim they like “dad bods” are saying that because they don’t have a choice. Short of a minority of fetishists out there, women are no different than men. Given the choice between a fit mate or a fat mate, 100% will choose fit mates when all other factors are equal.
I would have to see photo examples, but probably where the stomach hangs over the pants is BBW.
When will we just start saying Fat again?
We need to quit sugar coating it
I can go a bit over the middle, as long as there's curves and the curves aren't you know... flabby?
There is a difference between curvy and fat for me I like curvy girls but you have guys that like fat girls so it all boils down to what they prefer
Actually, what you're NOT accounting for is that some guys blur that line a lot! Yes, for some guys there is a clear demarcation, but NOT ALL guys. One guy's hamburger is another guy's steak!
With a pic? 😂🤷🏻♂️
Based on what I find attractive
