Is a size 14 a BBW?
« on: 26 April 2016, 09:19:17 pm »
Hi girls and guys.

Recently due to getting in a relationship and getting comfortable, ive put over a stone on in a year and gone up to size 14.

Do and can i class myself as a BBW?

Im abit worried being at the larger size of a normal escort, and thought at least if i can say BBW, id have target clientelle looking for a curvier woman?

Only thing is i have the belly and thighs but no ass or tits lol!

Thanks x

It depends on your build and height, if you are 5ft 0 and a size 14 you may be a BBW but if you 5ft 10 you wouldn't. I'm 5ft 8 with a medium frame and size 14 and I wouldn't call myself a BBW. For my height I would feel I'd need to be a size 18 and upwards to be classed as BBW.
If you ladies wish to get an idea of your frame size just wrap your thumb and middle finger around the smallest part of your wrist if it overlaps you are small framed, if it just touches you are medium framed, if it doesn't touch you are large framed.

I wouldn't call a size 14 a BBW. I'd class a BBW as size 18. For me anything under that is just curvy/shapely/normal!

If you have the belly, then yes, you could probably call yourself a 'small BBW'. If you had no tummy but had tits & ass, then I would go for curvy. All depends on your height though, size 14 and 5 foot 6 is totally different from size 14 and 5 foot 1 :)

It's just a marketing term, but does make it easier for guys to find exactly what they're looking for.

Be honest in your marketing/advertising - pics and words etc - and you will attract the guys who want YOU. :)

I don't think so, no, unless you're abnormally short. To me a size 14 falls into the 'voluptuous' or 'curvy' category.

I was a size 14 - once ( :D ) - and at 5' 2", looking at my pics from then now, I was definately what guys in UK would call "BBW". It depends on how you carry it. I had big tits, big bum, big thighs and big belly, none of it toned. Much more  than 'just' curvy or voluptuous. I'm just a much larger BBW now  ;D

I am a size 16 and don't market myself as a bbw.just curvy. I have always done well. I think the thing that matters are recent pics and honesty in the profile. Loads of guys love a curvy woman!

Definately not, you would be considered to be Curvy not even voluptuous, Voluptuous is more a size 16.

Size 14 is the UK average size for a woman these days.  Admittedly not necessarily for escorts but it reflects women of today.

I always thought a BBW was a size 18 plus and over about a size 30 a super size BBW. Size 14-16 being curvy or voluptuous?

12 - 14 is Curvy

16 is Voluptuous although some would call it a BBW

But I would say 18 - 20 BBW

Larger than a 20 is a SBBW or SSBBW

Yes I'd agree with that.

 A client recently described me as 'Buxom' I'm a size 12, mind you he was about 8 stone wringing wet lol

I agree with the people who've mentioned height - dress size on it's own doesn't describe anybody's build. I'm a size 8-10 and look curvier in person than my friend who's a 12, because I'm 5 foot 3 and she's 5 foot 10.

I don't like glib marketing-speak anyway, but I'd look at your photos and some other peoples who use the term and decide whether you think you fit the mould or not. If you're only a 14 and any taller than me though, I'm guessing not :).

I am a size 20-22 now with big thighs and big belly, but no boobs and no bum. Sometimes I do wonder if I should market myself as 'fat' not bbw as i get a lot of enquiries for big boobs or bum. However everywhere I look BBW is somebody 18+ UK size and I certainly don't fit into other categories (sigh)

I'm a 24-26 and I thought about saying ssbbw, but ssbbw seems to be classed as at least 240lbs which I am just below.
