This is part of a series on the BBW, a topic found to be "too big" to fit in any one forum. The BBW will be explored from different angles in different forums.

Does our society discriminate against BBWs? Are BBWs likely to have more trouble making friends? Are BBWs with Asperger's syndrome doubly discriminated against in our society?

Big Beautiful Women?

Of course.

In our society, poor people are more likely to be fat, and rich people, by virtue of having more disposable income, are more likely to be "skinny" and tanned. Therefore, we prefer the upper-class skinnies to the lower-class fatties.

Don't worry, with our current jobless rate, I'm sure being "skinny" will soon be less about being "rich" and more about being hungry and desperate. Zog bless America.

My younger daughter is overweight and is very popular and has no trouble making friends.

You seem to post a lot about overweight women. What are you really getting at?

Well, he's basically said on another thread that they were desperate, and the question of whether or not they have more trouble making friends seems ridiculous, because while people may choose dates based on appearance, I don't know anyone who chooses friends based on that. He seems to want to backhandedly insult heavy women under the guise of "learning" or "discussion".

why are you focusing on BBWs, as opposed to ALL overweight people? the phrase "BBW" does not include men. please PM me as to what you are getting at here, and then i will unlock the thread.
