Miriah, I'm a BBW sub. I'm reading a terrific book called "Big, Big Love" by Hanne Blank (The book speaks to kinksters and vanillas alike). It is helping me normalize my own experience as a BBW and to understand it really is all about preference. Yes, it is doubly difficult to deal when we live in a society that perpetuates this crazy myth that fat is undesirable, when nothing could be further from the truth for a significant portion of our society. I once told a boyfriend of mine that I didn't think I was attractive enough because I was not thin. I told him men don't find me attractive (I was not including him in that statement). He looked at me like I had just said the nuttiest thing on earth. He said to me, "you're just not paying attention." He was so right on point. Since I've been accepting and understanding that statement of his more and more and the fact that size, like every other kind of preference is just a matter of "taster's choice," so to speak, I feel a hundred pounds lighter (pun intended). More importantly, I'm now putting myself out there first thing as the bright, attractive, got-so-much-to-offer submissive bbw I am. And I'm finding some folks don't like my fatness, but guess what? Some folks do. How groovy is that? And btw, there are plenty subs who dig bbws dommes, just put yourself out there and present yourself to reflect your wonderfulness. (Don't forget to post a pic, if you can. Or offer a pic first thing.) Then sit back and enjoy the deluge. After all, "If you build it, they will come." Take care, gina
