donuts at the finish line
I've wondered about BBW/FA netiquette for awhile now, and would love to hear y'alls opinions.
I love chatting online through YIM, or Dim, and get a decent amount of PMs and IMs--I'm sure all the beautiful women here do!
I find myself getting frustrated by fielding the same questions over and over again. Because I don't have a lot of full body pics and the way some of my face shots are, I always get told, "you don't look like a bbw" and then I'm asked to say "how big" I am.
After a day of living life as a very large woman, larger than anyone I know in RL, it's hard to transition into the FA net world where these things are part and parcel to having a virtual conversation with someone. I get so tired of having to quantify and qualify my fatness to others. I just want to be here.
I don't think its a problem with my pictures. I'd rather just share my face.
Does anyone else feel like this? Should I be willing to describe my body over and over again to any FA I come across? Thoughts?
(I wasn't sure what forum to put this on, hope this is ok)
EDIT: I didn't mean this to focus on Dimensions, but the net in general, and people of size sites in particular
