BBWW - a blog of plus-sized Wonder Woman cartoons. via
  • My cat finds her large size to be a superpower in itself. She uses it to subdue me until I pet her.
  • Oooookay, even I find this to be a truly disturbing post. Disturbing, yet strangely erotic....
  • Blatantly erotic and strangely disturbing.
  • You sick feeder fucks.
  • kit's in love with big wonder woman!
  • reminds me of this (ytmnd, SFWish, sound)
  • What's so disturbing about a fat Wonder Woman?
  • EXACTLY!!!
  • R.Crumb would love this stuff.
  • The only disturbing one is that first one, where she's shoveling fried chicken into her mouth. I hate the stereotype that all fat people overeat.
  • Fetishising anything superficial is pretty disturbing, frankly. Still, these are kind of cool.
  • Fetishising anything superficial to that extent is what I meant. I mean, we all fetishise SOMETHING superficial...
  • I hate the stereotype that all fat people overeat. WELLLLLLL, I, for once, am not being snarky when i ask quite honestly, isn't that how most people get fat? Auctually, on second thought, perhaps it's more appropriate to say that most overweight people don't exercise enough for the amount they eat. Speaking for myself, I have been working really hard on eating better, less chocolate and pizza and chips and more vegetables and fruit (even though i feel my manhood shrink a little every time i eat fresh fruit). I still haven't been able to lose weight because I spend to much time talking to you all instead of exercising.
  • I fetishise coffee. Are you looking askance at my Joe?
  • I hate the stereotype that all fat people overeat. Only over recent months and in massive quantities, not all the time obv. Bigger than average wonder woman looks ok to me. I'd hit on her, and then, knowing my own death was seconds away, see her softness begin to envelope me and realise it was worth it.
  • Berek: it's good that you're trying to lose weight. But, even with your determination, you seem to find reasons why it's hard. If you didn't lack WILLPOWER, you'd weigh 140 and be a Greek god. But, consider this. There are metabolic diseases which make it even very difficult to lose weight than if you're the normal Cheetos eating computer addicted sort. For example many women suffer from PCOS. This disease causes the body to not deal with insulin well, so some effect are the same as diabetes but different from diabetes, but others are due to an increased production of testosterone. You might notice that it's deemed a female disease, because of its effects on the female reproductive system, but I'm firmly convinced that, as a metabolic disease, it doesn't discriminate. My ex-husband didn't fit the profile for diabetes, but had many of the same symptoms as in PCOS. And, yes, my daughter has PCOS. I read a study some years ago which indicated that young women with PCOS generally ate less than their healthy peers, but gained weight anyway. You might have noticed that everyone was being pretty determined to not make value judgements about overweight people, till now, in this thread. Maybe you should do the same. So, look, the WILLPOWER thing above was to get your attention. When you get around to exercising, I'd suggest that you get checked for diabetes symptoms which don't quite meet the normal definition. My ex's sugar levels changed with no explanations for the ups and downs, but since PCOS was female thing, no one knew quite what to do. He'd go on carbohydrate binges, which meant he HAD to eat carbohydrates that he didn't really like if they were available. You might think that was just a lack of willpower, but I can tell you it wasn't. So, anyway, no thanks to you for getting aback to the mundane internet tendency to blame the fatties without any knowledge of their situation. I'd say that the large version of Wonder Womean fits the PCOS version very well. Or, maybe not. Maybe she's just a really buffed woman. Yeah, a few extra pounds, but she seem to be doing ok.
  • Well, the vast majority of people that are overweight are that way because of lack of willpower. They eat too much and exercise too little. If you didn't lack WILLPOWER, you'd weigh 140 and be a Greek god. I'm 6 ft and weigh 220 so I'm far from grossly obese and am working on the exercising. If I were a greek god I'd be flinging thunderbolts at you all and accepting virgin sacrifices.
  • Personally, I think the issue is the stereotype of the binging fat person. Yes, many fat people do overeat, but not necessarily all in one sitting. Most of the fat people I know (including myself) don't sit down to buckets of fried chicken or whole pizzas. It's grazing that does them in along with bad food choices. A donut here, a value meal there, a bowl of ice cream - it all adds up over the course of the day. But it's "funnier" to portray a fat slob chowing down on a side of beef, I guess.
  • I will agree with that cabingirl. And because of your wisdom will accept you into my pantheon as cabingirlgod.
  • I'd hit it. The figure on the right, anyway.
  • I hope sketches by Alex Robinson and Terry Moore are on this dude's wishlist. And what the_bone said. Wieringo rawks.
