BBW/SSBBW boundary question for incredible science

Fri Jun 19, 2009, 10:47 PM
All right, before I get to the meat of this journal, I will say that I'm not working on the final chapter of 1K lb Statue. The chapter has become so long and intense that I've decided to split up the last battle for the Legendary Cookbook into two pieces to make for maximum suspense. I'll probably have the 8th chapter up soon with the 9th, the climactic climax, some time after.

Otherwise Netherworld of Endless Delights will be continued shortly after, and I'll begin Candy Coated Turnabout soon, since I have so many ideas and lines I just can't wait to incorporate.


Otherwise, I have a question for all y'alls. This is getting into semantics, but at what point would you distinguish between BBW and SSBBW? Of course such titles are arbitrary as all hell and definitely vary from FA to FA, but I'd like to see if the weights cluster around a general weight and fit to my prediction.

I'm not gonna post my idea so that I'm not skewing the poll results, but consider a couple things. Do your weights for BBW/SSBBWs in real life and fantasy/fanart differ? If they do feel free to post both.

This journal really isn't of any consequence, but I love science and so should you!

I've never really thought about it, it's kind of one of those things that you can just tell by looking at the subject where they fit in. But if I had to guess I'd say a BBW becomes a SSBBW, not so much when they hit a specific weight, but when their body reaches a certain point. I'd say they become a SSBBW when, for lack of a better term, their body can't fight gravity anymore. I don't mean immobilization, I mean something along the lines of when their stomach hangs down in front of their body rather than spreading out around their body. That's just a vague example of what I mean. But that would just be for real life, in the fantasy/fanart world I'd say a SSBBW would be someone who's weight could not or is very unlikely to exist in the real world.

Wow, you know I never thought about it before but when I describe it in specific terms this fetish actually sounds dirty and gross. I think I need a shower.

The general rule is that after 300 pounds, it's SSBBW.

What Shadow said, generally.
:icondr-black-jack:
Hmm, the great weight debate rears itself once again! Since measurements and other standardizations are pretty hard to compare, I'd say that 330 is the point where a girl should be ranked as ssbbw if she's at about average height (5'7'' or so). It's the halfway point between the 100 kilo and 200 kilo point (220 and 440 respectively XD) so there's a good place to start XD Of course, she shouldn't have to limit herself to just 330 if you know what I mean.

As for sizes, yeah I think there's a clear distinction between reality and fantasy XD As fun as it would be to have an enormous girl at my disposal, I think a more practical yet huggably soft size would be ideal XD I guess I blame my desensitization to sizes over the years for that XD (I once thought a size 16 was HYOOOOJJJJEEEEEE, you ever get that? XD)

I'm not in at the moment. Please leave your details, together with the nature of your condition together with how much you are willing to pay me. I will get back to you later.

Is this coming from in part our little conversation from the other night?

She's an SSBBW if a fat person calls her fat.

Yes, I too have heard that the general weight divisor for BBW/SSBBW is around 300 pounds. However there are many caveats involved, height being one, type of fat cells (some adipocytes seem to be more compact than others - this is why some people of roughly the same height and weight can look like they are different weights), general body type - the whole 'big boned' cliche, which really can factor into overall body weight, as well as if they have bigger apendages, more muscle mass, etc. At any rate, 300 to 350 seems like as good an arbitrary number as any for the real world.

However, in the fantasizer (to borrow a term from the great Wilson Barbers) world, I'd say around 500 pounds is a nice number. A good ol' quarter of a ton!

Although, I quite like karatelincoln's statement, very succinct. When fat is calling fat fat then you know you're FAT!
:iconrandomnintendogeek:
It is sort of grim when you think about it, which is part of the reason I relegate it to fantasy. The other reason is that I imagine finding a woman I'd be compatible with that is also into gaining herself are quite low. And really, fatness and other physical traits are something not quite as important to me when looking for love XD

I sometimes consider it closer to 350 or 400 myself, but I guess it really is a case by case sort of thing XD
