well for me, "BBW" is an oxymoron which provides no tumescence.

but i won't be rude and hurt people's feelings.

but i am practical so i will preach.

fat folks are unhealthy.

fat people have higher medical expenses.

and in the western world if you buy private health insurance you have seen premiums soar dramatically in the last 10 years, at a rate much higher than inflation.

this is largely due to rising rates of obesity in the western world.

so everyone pays when people get fat. it costs more to fly across the country because airlines have to buy more fuel due to weight increases, etc.

forget aesthetics, it's physics, science, reality. the argument that "i am fat and it is my decision to be fat" is irresponsible because it effects everyone in society.

the BBW idea is a compensatory concept. fat is unhealthy, not beautiful.
