ken-knight, hi, you wrote - "Its the feeling of being physically overpowered that is exciting"...and that set my mind whirring about 'a Real Feeling Felt', which is my buzz sentence - that 'excitement' and how we get it, or not. Just...its how it came to me. Sorry, are we meant to be more disciplined on this board, my wiring....ahh...I'm not always precise, but I was trying to examine a 'feeling' thats generated, I did honestly think there was a connection.

anyway, whoever it is who's going to discipline me about this...I've assumed the position.

Thanks for explaining that, i see now. It was just that i couldn't see where the biting incident followed the thread on submission to BBW's. Thanks for taking the time to explain :-)

That's not to say I haven't found various fat women attractive over the years, but to actually fetishise the fat itself? I dunno.

I find it very disturbing. When a man approaches with a line about my weight I find it as offensive as when they just stare at my tits or are constantly looking at every passing bottom.

I can't help myself wondering what the attraction really is.

Not to say a man that thinks I look attractive and likes my weight or tends to prefer larger women is a bad thing.

Its just when the only thing they're drawn to is my fat it becomes worrying.

I guess in those instances there is a feeling that the things I liek about me are superfluous and that he would be attracted to any fat woman that came along -- rather than me specifcally.

I don't think that someone who has a penchant for big women sees JUST your size. For me, it is just that, a preference, in the same way as people say they like women with long hair, or green eyes, etc. It doesn't mean they will fancy ANY woman with long hair or green eyes, it just means there is a better chance they will. Of course, if they do not like the rest of them, they won't fancy them.

In the same way, yes, i have a preference for bigger women, but that does not mean i fancy any woman who happens to be big. I would not therefore just stare at someone because i could only see their size. If someone stares at you, or pays you alot of attention, it is probally not because you are big, but because you happen to be a particularly attractive example of a curvy woman. :-p

There isn't one. But that doesn't mean that it isn't unhealthy to be very overweight.

Don't get me wrong, I really have nothing against overweight people, if that's the way you want to be and you're happy, that's absolutely fine.

But it does annoy me when people say "there's no disease that only fat people get", as if this proves that there are no health risks at all associated with being overweight.

I don't remember saying that there is no health risk from being fat. I am aware there are health risks. Also health risks with high cholesterol, blood pressure. smoking,diabetes, drinking, drugs,etc. All of which can come from lifestyle choices, but of course how easy a tool to use against the obvious fat person, and not the one who looks like all the "normal" people. So I am sad you are annoyed by what I said, but strangely not surprised.

Don't get me wrong about BBW, I love em, but a lot of the posters here are quite young.

I'd be interested to hear from older people who may find it an issue - especially in terms of onset of diabetes, early death etc. You may be lucky enough to have those good genes where you are big right through to the end without problems but what about people 50+

It's great when you're younger but does it limit what you can do - how you can be later on in life?

I have always wondered about that aspect?

I am a size 28, woman of 53years of age. I have always been supersize even as a child. I have always been active, took part in netball at junior league, put shott county levels, did Irish dancing. I had work, five children. I have never let my size stop me doing anything I wanted to do. Health was always used to try to control me. I say show me a disease that a thin person can't get, and a fat person can. I have lived my life my way and if I do drop dead tommorrow I will have known love, good sex, brilliant friends and not be sorry for anything. I know I am well fine, what's more important is I know I gave it my best shot.

<applauds> I shall have "my way" by Mr Sinatra played at my funeral :-D

chapeau!

I shall have lifted by Lighthouse Family, because they could never keep me down. Frank is a damn fine choice :-)

I am not a size I am happy with at the moment. This contributes towards my nerves at getting involved with the scene. Most of the people I saw at Kinkfest last year of my age were slim and looking amazing in their fetish outfits. I do not like the way I look, and thus have no confidence to approach others. Only when I am a lot skinnier would I feel confident in wearing leather or PVC, as I would feel too embarrassed right now. Depressing, but the way it is!

BTW, what defines a 'BBW'? How big do you have to be? Where's the cut off point?

Under 20 stone is a plumper... 20 - 25 stone BBW... 25 stone and over SSBBW (super sized)

Thank you! I've always wondered that. When do you stop being a 'plumper' or is that subjective?

PS I do know that it's a me thing, that plenty of big women wear fetish gear, but until I've ironed out most of my body bumps, I wouldn't feel happy wearing tight-fitting clothes. Low-cut tops, now that's a different thing entirely!

Got me wondering also so looked it up...

Big Beautiful woman or BBW is a term that has frequented the Internet for quite sometime. It is generally associated with plus size women (over a size 16 in the UK) and is easily remembered because of its flowing term

Oh... A topic close to my heart. I *can't* pass up the opportunity to launch into this one. Its a long post though - Mistress_Alpha, you best look away now.

First up, let me say that I am the vocal arm of a silent army amongst men - those who like curves, plump, big, bouncy, soft, strong, yielding, velvety and a whole dictionary of other adjectives that we see positive attributes in women.

That's not to say that these are the *only* features I love in women and I am not attracted just to curvier girls. Hence I get offended at being called a chubby-chaser because it implies I find someone attractive solely for being plump, rather than for being a beautiful woman who happens to have some rather beautiful curves. Voluptuous women appeal to my eye, my mind, my hands, my body. That applies to me - and to half the men in this county, by the way. (they just don't shout about it like I do)

In my case, I gave up on skinny girls as a teenager. I was very slim, very fit, not an ounce of fat and had an a girlfriend who was an aspiring model. I found out that it was actually painful for us to make love - whatever the angle, we clanked bone on bone as soon as we got at all vigorous. Totally unsexy and put me off skinny girls. Enter following girlfriend, much more curvy, and suddenly we can let rip as hard as we liked at each other. Our lovemaking ran wild. And I became a convert.

For me, curves say sex, passion, lust, strength, fertility and a healthy appetite. They are the epitomy of all that is womanly. I am not alone in my thinking, so its no wonder that submissive men are drawn very strongly to such positive signals.

Women are not the only ones repressed by the current culture of thinness - we are all people and we all watch the media. Men don't publicly admire curvy women because we are told that we shouldn't. The media is full of only skinny-minnies, so the impressionable (i.e. teenagers) grow up thinking that they are all that there is in the world. Curvier girls feel self-conscious and stay out of the limelight, so the boys get less chance to see them in a positive light. Its a vicious circle.

The medical fact is that people who are fat and fit are as healthy as those who are thin and fit. Its only fat and unfit that's the problem. But the medical establishment seem to forget to mention that part...

Don't be brainwashed. Many men love bigger women. Not all men but far more than you'd think. It's not *all* we see you for - but it *is* something that will attract us.

Be big and beautiful and sexy. But above all, be seen. Be seen, admired and adored.

Tim

And sooooo many posts to comment upon.

Mistress_Alpha: Hmmmm. Agree original post was long. But which bits would you snip? It was the length of the homage to voluptous beauty which was such a change from the norm. As such, I think that it was justified.

moonstruck: I hate you. As I started reading this, I was singing "whole Lotta Rosie" and you stole my post. I shall *never* forgive you. ;-)

frapperia: Oh honey, please please please get out and be seen. You're not alone in worrying that there's so many slimmer girls on the scene. But that's partly because others have the same worries you do. By staying away, you're denying people the chance to admire you. You're also denying yourself the pleasure of being seen and admired. Trust me, you *will* be admired... The truth is that when you get looked at by a man - its because you've caught his eye and there's something about you he wants to see more of.

Aaaahh. 48 pct of women or more.

I find the term offensive anyway and now even more so.

You are not beautiful despite being fat and don't need a category apart from other women.

You are beautiful because you are beautiful.

Full stop.
