    Default "Average" body types & Camming

    I've been camming a little over a year now, with several months off in between and during that several months I gained 20 pounds because I was really depressed. When I first started camming I was no skinny girl, but I was "average" I guess lol. Now, I've been hitting camming hard and am working to be better/get more eggs in my basket/etc. But this extra weight feels awful. I've been trying to eat better and started exercising more...but I find it's hard to market myself. I'm just not sure where I fall in the world of camming bodies. I'm not quite big enough to be BBW, some argue with me when I try to tag myself as curvy because I don't have large breasts, and then I have issues when I tag myself as big booty or small breast too. I feel like I've got kind of a girl-next-door look almost but I'm finding it difficult to figure out where I fall in categories. Right now I'm at 5'5" and 180lbs (most of it is butt, thighs, and hips) but I only have B cups.

    Do you ladies have any encouraging stories, advice, or tips to share with me an "average" shaped/sized gal? Thanks in advance!

I am in this industry for almost 13 years and trust me, my body changed in all this years.I can tell you that there are customers for everybody out there.I have gained some weight the past few years too, due to depression i guess .This job can eat you alive sometimes. Also my body is not what it used to be no more Never mind , there is fish in the sea

    please dont feel like this , i am a bbw / fatty / chubby what ever u want to call it ... and have been a larger size for the whole 3 years i have been camming , i have lost weight put it on , now trying to lose it , I think all you need to be is confident !! that goes a long way and take everything at ur own pace and yours only !!

    As for my size and camming - i chat to guys who go for girls that are nothing like me (half the size ) tonned , small pert boobs etc ... personality goes a long way and be happy with yourself !! If you don't feel like you are bbw then don't class yourself as this .. curvy is good ! shake what ur mama gave ya ! xxxx

    I appreciate this so much. It's hard sometimes to feel that confidence because sometimes these guys are quite mean like saying things along the lines of "xx for THAT price? totally too high for being your size" bleh. I know I gotta ignore them though, so I'll work on it.

    What i have learned in all this years is that the more confident you feel and you laugh it off, the more you attract em. So, f..k em.Men a lot of the times can be pigs and especialy in this job. But i also learned that there are nice guys out there too. Hang on to the nice ones and ignore or laugh at the rude ones.

    I totally agree that confidence is key. I am 'curvy' but not BBW also (and I have average sized breasts). I honestly don't think it matters what my size is (I have fluctuated a lot) as long as I smile and believe (or at least fake believe) that I am sexy I do get called names but honestly almost all of us get that regardless of size/appearance. Whether it's fat, big nose, ugly, small boobs, etc there will always be someone trying to get attention by being an arsehole. Just don't feed them.

    Well I've never been close to bbw but I was "chubby" as ass holes on mfc would call it. Sm worked well for me when I had extra weight. Guys like big asses too so that helps. I lost a lot of customers when I lost weight. I've since replaced them with guys who prefer petite girls. But I've had ppl tell me they miss me weighing more or miss the tits and ass I used to have. There's a market for every type of girl. Just play up your best features.

    Agreed with the above comments. Play up your features. Wear a push up bra if you have one. I market myself as BBW- I'm 5'8 255lbs but I have smaller breasts - B cup. So don't be afraid to test out different categories, BBW isnt ALL about tits, if you have a belly and a decent ass you're going to do well in the category too. Trial and error - test yourself as BBW, as curvy, play with your rates etc til you find a happy medium or a spot where you bank !

    I agree with the other ladies.
    I will be damned if I don't see a BBW on every single site who is on the first page, if not first page, first row... or the number 1 listed! Love your body no matter what others 'think' you should look like.
    They used to say being a fat girl was unhealthy, a disease. Well what about all these average body types that are dropping from Heart Disease etc.
    So many guys in the cam world seek out Big Beautiful Women and pay them well. I feel it's like what the new 'blond' used to be... a huge selling point for many.
    Even on Chaturbate (CB) first row and often number 1 when she signs on... BBW!!!

    I gained 30 pounds while dealing with a health problem last year and I'm not of fan of the extra weight but guys seem to really like it. My boobs are spectacular now and my ass gets me a lot of attention Lol

    Don't let the weight get you down. I'm sure you look great and are probably being a bit hard on yourself.

    I'm going to lose the weight I gained because I'm just not physically comfortable with it but I'm really going to miss my boobs

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks when you loose weight your boobs shrink, mine do but no one ever believes me. I wouldn't worry to much about weight. I have actually gained around 50 pounds over the past 2 years."I know it's crazy, probably due to some medication I was on" Either way the weight didn't hurt my income at all. My customers will use terms like chubby at times, but they also like me the way I am, and could care less if I loose it. I do think it comes down to confidence. Confidence is sexy and they can sense it.

    I think webcamming is pretty diverse. You can deviate from conventional beauty norms and still make good money. But those norms still exist, and on average I do think slimmer/average weight girls make more. Not the only factor, but I think it is still a factor.

    Thanks for all your encouraging comments ladies! I guess my worry is...I feel like it's hard to pin down what to describe myself as for tagging and such to get the kinds of guys that would be into someone who looks like I do. I WISH sometimes I was BBW because I would know that I could tag myself as that and not wonder anymore if I am misleading guys who look at the tags and come into my room expecting something else-bigger/smaller/etc. "average" sounds so boring! lol

    Meh, guys don't really read profiles/go by tags that much. You can make your tags about your best features, not your overall body type. If a guy bitches about you being misleading or mislabeling yourself he is a dick. I'd say just go for curvy if average doesn't sound appealing to you. A big ass is a curve

    Default Re: "Average" body types & Camming

    I have the same body type OP and i label myself as Curvy, i tried BBW but they said i am too small for it and no big tits; i saw myself not fitting in the BBW category with real big girls as competitors plus i dont provide the show type they provide (the eating shows and all BBW related roleplays) so i decided to just be Curvy.
    Yes i got nasty comments myself but i feel they came from other performers not members actually, maybe just a small number were real members.
    I wish i could have THIS experience when i started camming and was young and thin but i feel good in my own skin so i work the niche and make ok money still.
    Good luck and be confident, there are men who like our body type, i sometimes am amazed by how can a man like ME and not go to a young slim girl?!? But for some reason they love ME so i am happy about that!!

    Aw Alice thanks for sharing your experience! You're awesome as all hell so I'm glad you rock it still. I want to have confidence that unwavering someday. I've started really thinking of myself as curvy and not feeling like a fakie saying it. Honestly I've heard "ur fat" all my life from men and family and had an eating disorder issue when I was a young teen. Now that I'm "food reformed" it doesn't mean I'm better. It's so uncomfortable sometimes to have all the thoughts about how much you've been put down when you're out there for the world to see on cam. I'm feeling better now than I ever have and I think that's why I was able to come back to camming. When I was super depressed a couple of months ago I literally couldn't do anything and just couldn't face the camera (this was even in early months when I hadn't even gained weight yet) because I felt so UNconfident. I'm glad that feeling is on its way out of my life though and all your ladies kind words and overall encouraging atmosphere has had some major part in that.

    Be confident and ignore the guys who call you fat. Some of these trolls just like to insult women. I have seen beautiful blonde barbie first row girls called fat , disgusting and ugly. It does not matter how you look to those type of guys. These trolls do it to everyone regardless of appearance they get off on insulting women and are probably just hoping to make you cry. Ignore them. Tell them you are the most beautiful girl in the world, and to kiss your big, curvy ass.

    It's a good idea to test out different tags and see what ends up attracting more customers, but what other girls have said about confidence is the BEST advice IMO.
    Before I started camming I was terrified because I have an unusual body type too. (Tiny boobs, "skinny" looking but wider hips and a tummy that sticks out more than anything else) It hurt my feelings at first when people would say something about my stomach (strech marks and all) but after a while I started coming back with things like "what!?! You don't loveeee my cute tummy? But it makes me look so soft and sexy!! It looks so good with how my hips curve here..."

    And then the other members in the room jump in talking about how much they love my body, I feel 10x better, and sometimes it even starts some tipping
    If YOU think you look good, it's much more likely that customers will see it from your perspective
