Let's Discuss - Clubs for Plus Sized People

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,569668,00.html

Eggface posted this article just now about a club in CA that caters to overweight people. I know for myself I love to dance and do feel self conscious going to clubs.

How do you feel about a club just for big people?

Discuss!

I think that it can be both a good and a bad thing.

of course I run a group that has BBW in the name of it....  but we let skinny folks in too... just have to LIKE BBW...

yea sometimes i wonder if having our own place is our way of hiding away instead of just going where everyone else goes. I may feel uncomfortable but I still try to get out there sometimes, at regular clubs, to dance. I guess it depends on why you are going. If you are there just to have fun and move your body, it shouldn't matter where you go.

i've gone to bbw type events and although i feel more comfortable it also makes me uncomfortable but in a different way.

well you've met a lot of our friends... sad that I'm the skinny chick (already)... and yes a lot of our lifestyle revolves around food and sedentary activies (GAMING mostly)....   

the problem with larger people going out to dance at mainstream clubs is that some folks are just too ignorant and they make fun and laugh...

did you ever see the new movie GET SMART... one scene is where Max asks a woman to dance   a SSBBW....   it's a great scene...  the skinny girls are making fun of her till she gets up and does some awesome dancing...

i know you are right. freakin sucks. especially the bigger you are. it is very sad :(

I agree with Nessa, it could be good and bad. Me personally, I love to go to the club and dance and all that, but when I was single, I wasn't attracted to overweight men all the time, so from my perspective, if thats the only type of men your letting in, I don't think that would be my favorite night spot.

that's interesting because we have skinny men in our group because they LIKE BBW...


i think that SOME men that go for BBW (esp very young men) think that they can't do better than that it's not really a preference.    

I 100% agree with this as well. I always found that skinny men were attracted to me before, however, the quality of the men I attracted before was CRAP (to say the least)

I do notice the smaller I get, the better "quality' of men that are attracted to me, does this make sense?

yep it makes perfect sense.   the thing about it is that maybe some of OUR own behaviors are what attract the better quality now?  ya think?

ABSOLUTELY, Nessa!! This process is very mental as much as it is physical!
