BBW dating websites cater to plus-sized women and men who are attracted to plus-sized women, no matter what their size may be. A Google search for "bbw dating" and "bbw personals" turned up more than 1.3 million and 1.6 million results respectively. The acronym "bbw" stands for "big, beautiful woman".
In this society, with so much emphasis put on weight and body type, it's understandable that women who fall outside the cultural norm would want a room of their own, so to speak. BBW personals websites provide that. Unfortunately, many single women who would be very successful meeting men in this niche market are uncomfortable using bbw dating sites. There is a certain stigma attached to being (and admitting to being) big or overweight in America, especially as a woman.
Many single bbw women would prefer to instead use a traditional dating site and either outright lie or refuse to answer questions about weight or body type. Some will be honest and then be disappointed by the lack of interest she receives. Typically, plus-sized single women on traditional dating sites will fare far worse than their thinner counterparts when all else is equal.
This is due, in part, to the fact that men who want their women robust will gravitate towards a bbw personals website. Although there is still some negativity attached to the desire to be with society deemed to be an overweight or fat woman, men feel less of society's scorn on the topic of attractiveness. There is, therefore, no reason for men not to go to the dating site that is most likely to provide them with exactly what they're looking for.
If there is one thing the proliferation of niche dating websites has shown us, it's that no matter who you are, what you look like, or what you're into, there is someone, somewhere out there who's perfect for you. But often, finding the right place on the web to find that right person is the biggest challenge, unless you know the proper terms. And for single plus-sized women looking to meet men who will love every inch of them, the term you need to know is BBW.
