My Favorite Fetishes II: BBWs

First of all, I know I said that I'd talk more about hypnosis this time around.  I've gotten a couple of e-mails on this subject recently, though, and I thought it might be nice to talk about it.  The hypnosis talk is still coming, though, I promise!

Secondly, this post is going to contain pictures that might not appeal to everyone.  That's the nature of many fetishes, and that's okay.  I won't spend time apologizing for the post, however, as I'm a firm believer that, as long as all parties involved are consenting and of legal age, people shouldn't have to apologize for what turns them on.

Third, and finally, while I do have a great fondness for large women, I am by no means discounting women of other body types.  I am an unashamed lover of feminine beauty in all forms: short, tall, fat, thin, etc.  In fact, there are several instances where I am also attracted to the waifish look (such as my predilection towards slender trans-women, but that's another post entirely.)

Now, for those of you that are interested in the topic, and I know there are plenty of you out there, the real (plump and squishy) meat of the discussion is after the break.

Still here?  Good!  So, where to begin?

What Exactly Is a BBW?

The embodiment of beauty...

To put it quite simply, BBW is an abbreviation meaning Big Beautiful Woman.  It's used to describe any attractive woman who is considered overweight and whose body is larger than the currently accepted "cultural ideal" (e.g. Victoria's Secret models).

Wow, thanks, Jess.  That cleared up absolutely nothing!

Yeah, I know.  It's a bit of a broad term, and it can be kind of surprising just how many woman fall under the BBW umbrella.  Let's start with some of the different terms* used to classify various types of BBW:

*It is important to note that, in the context of this blog, none of these terms are intended to be derogatory in any fashion.  My intent is to define and use them in such a way as to relegate them to what they truly should be: harmless words used to describe a variety of attractive women.

Death by Snoo Snoo? Cool.

I'll bet she lifts.

Thick
"Thick Chicks" are usually women who have somewhat large hips and/or thighs in proportion to the rest of their body but are otherwise seen as "fit" or "toned".  These women are typically on the smallest end of the BBW scale (no pun intended) and are not really considered BBWs by most.

Perfectly aged...

... or young and plump?

Chubby
"Chubbies", or "Plumpers", are women who tend to weigh a little more than is recommended for their height and frame.  They are typically categorized by their less toned (and more pronounced) thighs and buttocks in addition to a small but noticeable tummy.  They may also have slightly thicker upper arms, as well.  This is typically what is meant when someone refers to themselves as having "a few extra pounds."

Quick, call Sir Mix-a-Lot!

So sexy!

Full-Figured

These women, often referred to as "Voluptuous", are characterized by having obviously large hips, buttocks and thighs while retaining the smaller tummy of their Chubby sisters.  These women will often have "pear-shaped" or "hourglass" figures (the latter being if their chest is also proportionately large).  This type of body is usually associated with "Plus-Sized Models" (see Denise Bidot or Fluvia Lacerda).

I do like a round belly.

Um... dibs!

Fat
"Fat" women are what people generally tend to think of when they imagine BBWs.  These women are usually well past their "medically ideal weight" (though I'm loathe to even use that term).  An example would be a woman who falls into the average height range (5'2"-5'6") who weighs somewhere between the 220 lbs. and 300 lbs. mark (maybe slightly more depending on height and build).  In addition to the (now expected) large thighs, hips, and butt, these women also tend to have large bellies that will often begin to hang down over their waistline and noticeable excess fat on their upper arms.  Most, though not all, will also have soft, large breasts (usually D-cup or greater) that just make for the most adorable...  Whoops, I'm getting ahead of myself.  Moving on...

Can't... think of caption... too aroused...

You can never EVER have too much ass!

SSBBW

This term is reserved for the largest (and "in charge-est") of women.  The name itself actually stands for "Super-Sized BBW", and they have the highest weight and body mass of the various BBW types.  Assuming average height as described earlier, a woman weighing 300 lbs. or over would most likely fall into this category.  These women represent the extremes of weight gain, with hip measurements of 65"+ and very large bellies which protrude as far as (and, in many cases, further than) their already ample breasts.  Additionally, their bellies will typically "fold" over themselves at least once, and they typically hang low enough to cover the woman's pubis.  Their thighs and butts tend to have a large amount of cellulite "dimpling", and their feet will sometimes be a very wide width (3E+), as well.  Their arms are characterized by large fat deposits which can be present on both the upper and lower arm areas.  There is only one course of action should you encounter SSBBWs in the wild: smile, flirt, and pray to Goddess that one (or more) of them is interested. ;)

Well, that certainly describes a lot of different women.  So, which type of BBW do you like?

Honestly?  All of them!

Yeah, yeah... diplomatic answer.  Seriously, though, which type is your favorite?

Personally, I'm happy with Full-Figured and above.  To understand why, though, puts us suspiciously in the territory of another sub-heading...

Dr. StrangeChub, or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Pudge

In order to understand just what it is I love about BBWs, it's helpful to know a few key facts about me:

This is on my Christmas list, so start shopping now.

1. The ass, legs, and breasts are, in that order, my absolute favorite parts of the female anatomy (aside from feet, of course, but I've already talked about that fetish).  I love to touch them, lick them, squeeze them, suck on the, etc... you get the idea.
2. When it comes to sex, I am incredibly greedy, and I am of the mindset that there is no such thing as "too much of a good thing."
3. I am a wanton, sexual hedonist.  If I find something that I enjoy, I'm going to indulge in it (so long as it's safe, sane, & consensual).  Is it considered weird?  Don't care.  Will it freak other people out?  Good, maybe one or two of them will end up trying out something new as a result.

So, to summarize, I love the parts of the female body which happen to be prone to storing fat, I love it when there's even more of those bits to go around, and I'm not swayed by social norms saying that I shouldn't be attracted to such things.

That's pretty much the short version, right there.  I like what I like, and I'm going to keep liking it.  That third part catches a lot of people up, though.  Society (specifically ad agencies) spend an inordinate amount of time an money selling us the idea that "Fat" is wrong.  Clothing commercials, beer commercials, and even restaurant commercials... the focus is thin women and "delicious low-calorie food."  

Collars come in all sizes!

And don't even get me started on the commercials for various "weight-loss systems".  So much effort is spent trying to make people believe that a woman is only valued if she's thin!  I remember being so utterly incensed by one specific commercial in which a woman bounced around in front of her "before" picture (in which I thought she looked gorgeous) talking happily about how, since losing weight, her husband felt like "he finally had his wife back."

Honey, if your husband actually feels that who you are is determined by the numbers on a scale, dump him and come fill a position serving me (ask about our special "Sex Slave Signing Bonus" - as much cunnilingus as you can take, and all the cupcakes you can eat... act now and receive a new wardrobe consisting entirely of skimpy lingerie)!

So... much... sassiness!

And that brings us to one of the things I love most about the term BBW and the women who identify themselves with it: acceptance and attitude!  That second "B" means Beautiful, and true BBWs know it!  They are proud of their bodies, and they refuse to be sold a lifestyle of shame and salads.  They know that they are gorgeous, and they show it.  And let me tell you, the single sexiest thing a woman can wear is confidence that she is attractive.

*CLAP* *CLAP* Very nice speech, but isn't it just an attempt to obfuscate the fact that it's still just a form of objectification?

Well, no... or, yes, but... only kind of, and... stop asking pertinent questions, dammit!

Look, I'm not going to lie about the fact that I tend to objectify BBWs and place them on a sexual pedestal.  Objectification is, while at times less than ideal, integral to the nature of sexual desire.  Physical attraction is just as important as mental stimulation (hell, I actually get incredibly aroused if I feel like I'm being objectified for someone else's pleasure).  Again, I plead the argument that it's alright to indulge in some good ol' fashioned sexual objectification as long as everyone involved is of age & consenting.

Fine, we'll let that slide for now.  But, as long as you're objectifying, let us in on the action.

Hmmm... I never could refuse a reasonable request, so...

How Do I Love Thee?  Let Me Count the Pounds

So many places a tongue could fit...

A lot of my usual sexual appetites mesh just fine with my attraction to BBWs.  I can do all of the things I normally like doing with others, there's just more surface area with which to work.  Am I in the mood to strip someone naked, strap them down, and tease them relentlessly while I lick/nibble/kiss their entire body?  Then I can literally spend hours blissfully exploring every curve and crevice of a full-figured beauty.

If you need me, I'll be under her.

Am I looking to be physically overpowered and forced to submit to ass worship and analingus (oh,the feigned horror)?  Well, it's hard to put up a fight when you have 350 lbs. of SSBBW booty pinning you to the sheets and gigantic legs immobilizing you.

I'm sure she did something to deserve it.

Perhaps I want to dominate someone and force them onto their hands and knees while I paddle them until the beg me for more.  One of the most beautiful sights I've ever seen is watching a fat girl's entire body jiggle with every swat.  Even better is the fact that the punishment can go on for much longer due to the plentiful amount of flesh.

Double the feet, double the fun!

Or maybe I want to lick and worship her feet (because, let's face it, I usually do).  Chubby feet and toes can be just as much fun.  And the wider and squishier they are, the more massaging they need.

I want to wear those thighs like giant, squishy earmuffs!

Last, but certainly not least, I may just be in the mood to perform copious amounts of cunnilingus.  It is, after all, one of my absolute favorite sexual activities.  And, let me tell you, the chubbier the girl is, the more I enjoy it!  I'm not sure what it is, but fat girl pussy just tastes better to me.  Maybe it has something to do with sweat or the types of food they eat... I don't know.  Whatever it is, though, it drives me wild!  It's like potato chips, once I start eating, I just can't stop.  And then there's the fun of making her orgasm!  One of my favorite things about cunnilingus is the way the recipient's thighs clamp around my head the second she starts to cum.  Not only is that experience less painful with a BBWs (it's like thick, comfy pillows encasing your head), but all that extra thigh flesh provides some very intense sensory deprivation.  Suddenly, all other stimulus is cut off, and you are left with nothing but the intense need to continue licking through the duration of the orgasm.  Oh, and the wild hip bucking?  Much more comfortable when there is padding between you and the pelvic bone.

Um... wow.  That certainly was... descriptive.  So, are there any activities specific to BBWs that you like?

The perfect comforter... and there's a blanket under her, too.

Well, aside from BBWs being just great to cuddle into, I love the warm, comfortable feeling of being"smothered" by them.  I'm not referring to the face-sitting mentioned above.  I mean it in a non-sexual way.  I like laying in bed with a BBW and having her cuddle me in a way that mostly throws her on top of me.  I feel completely immobilized, but not in the same bondage-y way.  It's hard to explain, but the feeling all of that warm, heavy flesh pressing down on me, her thick leg pulling my body in closer... it just makes me feel... happy and safe.

I'm not hungry. You can have the rest.

Also, BBWs make great dinner dates.  There's something so satisfying about looking across the table from you and seeing someone just absolutely enjoying all the flavors of a delicious meal.  Unlike the "smothering" thing, this actually does have a sexual component for me.  It's something called "feederism", the act of feeding someone food (usually fattening) as a sexual activity in order to exert control over their size, and, while it's something I'm only familiar with observationally, being a feeder is definitely high on my "things to try" list.

And one last bonus pic since I like you so much!

Well, that about wraps up this particular installment of My Favorite Fetishes.  Keep your eyes peeled for more long-winded rambling in the next installment (which I promise will totally be the hypnosis talk) as well new stories and updates.

If there are any specific topics you'd like me to touch upon in the future, or if you'd just like to chat further about my views on BBWs, feel free to leave a comment here or e-mail me directly.

EDIT (05/06/2013): A delightful woman and self-identified BBW contacted me via reddit to discuss her views on being viewed as a "fetish".  The discussion and it's results can be viewed in the first installment of a new feature, Reader's Response.

 
Until next time, keep that freak flag flying high!
