The Growing Glossary of Dating Slang

If you're new to online dating, then I'm afraid there is whole new language with well over 250 terms for you to learn.

Particularly since the rise of the iKids, people have been far more open about their sexual preferences and desires, and this has generated a long glossary of new dating terms. Many sexual preferences are still abbreviated on dating sites, presumably with the idea that those who do not understand the term do not need to know it. That thinking does not help newcomers though. Here is the term you're looking for:

BBBW means "Big Beautiful Black Woman."

More Observations...

The term "Big Beautiful Black Woman" is used to describe a woman of African origin who has a large figure and a pretty face. It is an empowering and politically-correct term for good-looking women who might previously have been described as "fat." The abbreviation BBBW is typically used as a description on dating sites or as an indexing tag on pornographic websites. Other terms that relate to plus-sized women include:

• BBW (big beautiful woman)
• PHAT (pretty, hot, and tempting)
• THICC (big, curvy, and sexy)
• THICK (big, curvy, and sexy)
