LOl I read a review today that made me chuckle....the chicks weight was list "around 160" and she is 5"5.....he called her a bbw......I looked at her pics and it looks like she is more like 180 or 200...maybe it's the way we are porportioned...she could be 160 but carry it differently?.. Now Im not trying to be mean,Im just trying to make light of the validity of portions of some of the guys reviews.
So I am 155 and 5"4....so in essence if he called HER a bbw then that would make ME a bbw...lol....I dont think I am not a bbw just consider myself average/thick or fluffy!
What are your thoughts and opinions on this?
Do you even look at the weight part of a review? Does it even matter? Or do guys just have an inability to logically guess a gals weight/height??
Again not trying to be rude or mean...just thought it might be interesting discussion.

Ah Dee,
You know I will admit guys are easily distracted.

But, yes there can be a huge difference in any humans "frame" that can cause weight differences for slender, average or whatever folks that are same height. Wide vs narrow shoulder frame, torso length vs leg length, and more.
Again, when a guy gets distracted, well....

Btw, Dallas is on my permanent dance card, and we have discussed more amusing things than this.

Things most subtle.

Some guys just find anyone bigger than a size 4 a BBW but...she could very well look like a BBW and only be just a mere handful of pounds more.
When it comes to weight this comes to mind:

or

She very well could be ONLY 160 is my point. I have a cousin that is barely 2 inches taller than me and is 190 (i'm 182 currently) but she actually looks a bit smaller than me when we're pictured together. Even when she's not beside me she appears much smaller to me than 190.
Body type and how much muscle/fat someone has can influence how they present.

I am a BBW and don't shy away from the term. But...i've had civvie friends tell me they didn't quite consider me BBW just because they don't consider anyone punching under 200 a "true BBW". And that I might be too small for a lot of "true BBW lovers". **shrugs**.
I'm also 5'5''.

So many girls around here lie so blatantly about their weight, it gives the guys a skewed idea of what is what.

Plus, guys don't understand women's sizes. To me, if you don't shop in the Plus Size section, then you aren't a BBW. And some ladies who do shop there, might not really be BBWs either.

DallasRain · 02-01-2020, 11:05 PM

Great point!
I have a sister that weighs same as me 155lbs..and is same height as me...she wears size 5 jeans..and i wear an 8

Guest042522 · 02-01-2020, 11:12 PM

That is exactly the size I guessed you were.

I wear a 10 (5'8" 180) and there is a prolific poster around who claims to be one inch shorter and 20 pounds lighter. I would bet anything she wears a 16, if not bigger. I think she lies by about 70-80+ pounds! She well over 200#.

tinman483 · 02-02-2020, 05:27 AM

All this aside!
My biggest down fall is trying to figure out or tell a woman s breast size!
Her belly or hips are I either like it or not. How she caries it I guess?

KevinMDOK · 02-02-2020, 06:10 AM

Weight is one of those things that I do look at, but care more about what she's interested in doing, and how she presents herself. Would rather have one of those 160 pound ladies that is nicely dressed than a super model who is a bad fit.

Thanks for being honest about ladies lying about their weight, I read 70% do. Yes, we are clueless about sizes. However I rely on my sexual visual stimuli to make choices and old photos are more of the problem. Thats another subject.

Men are just as confused about body types as you ladies are confused about your own body type. I had a young girl ask me what I thought her body type was.

In all fairness on P411 you have to select from a drop down menu for your body type. I'm 6' 193 lbs with no gut. Only 2 made sense slim or average. I went with average.

I see the same approximate height and weight where the body type is skinny, slender or athletic. When a ladies photo shows a slender profile at 5'8" 115lbs then she chooses athletic I go nuts. Is she referring to her tennis game?

DallasRain · 02-02-2020, 09:33 AM

That's another good point..atheltic?...hmm...I consider myself average.
I am not flabby & out of shape.. I have a firm body and a super ass and muscular arms.

Guest042522 · 02-02-2020, 12:20 PM

I was 5'8" and 118# in college when I was a competitive dancer. I was extremely thin, almost unhealthy. I didn't look thin/athletic until I hit about 135# and then I was still a size small/long (sz 4, long).

When guys think anything over 130# is fat, I just roll my eyes and laugh. When they think 150 or 160 is obese on anyone remotely tall (5'6" plus) I feel sorry for them.

We're roughly the same weight (I have 2 whole lbs on you) but @ 3 inches shorter....I'm a size 14 currently. XL or 0X depending on the brand usually but can fit a size L on a REALLY GOOD week lol.
This makes me think about "plus size" clothing brands.
Keeping in mind who is currently running the fashion world and what standards they're using. Some brands that push themselves as a plus size brand start at a 14 but some start "as small as" as a size 10.
