What does Wikipedia say?
What we do know is, the term #BBW is a euphemism for an overweight woman, according to Wikipedia, and was coined by a woman called Carole Shaw way back in 1979 when she first published a fashion and lifestyle magazine called BBW Magazine aimed at “plus-size” women. See Wikipedia for more on this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Beautiful_Woman
The article on Wikipedia also suggests the term “BBW” was probably first used by the magazine, and nowadays, women who had never heard of the phrase are now referring to themselves as BBWs! Well, here at BestBingoWebsites, if you’re a BBW you are more than welcome and we’re sure you’ll love our site Best Bingo Websites!
There’s also a “fat acceptance movement” and the term BBW is used as a positive euphemism by those involved with it, according to the article on Wikipedia.
The abbreviation BBW is also used in online dating websites and personal ads, making reference or indeed preference to women of the plus size category.
