I am overweight but not huge like the bbw porn he likes and he says he doesn't have any porn of women like me because it's hard to find and all either one extreme or the other . Is it true that men simply don't want to see my body type or its just boring to them I know that technically any type of body could be found but he made my body type sound extremely hard to find as if it's simply not that desirable . Is this true

 You have repeatedly asked this question and have got some good advice, what else are you looking to hear from on here?

reader, anonymous, writes (20 February 2017): "I have never understood a mentality of dehumanising women and in porn and treating them as nothing more than bodies."Simple economics. There's a demand for it so there's money to be made in supplying it.I don't condone it and I believe that a lot of women who end up doing porn either have psychological issues, are substance abusers, and/or are guileless wanna-be movie stars who lack talent and are manipulated into it. No doubt they're being exploited and the money they earn, although better than what they could earn anywhere else, is peanuts compared to what the (almost always male) producers make. As I futilely tried to explain to another OP, masturbation is purely a physical release, and often times the type of porn a guy prefers is representative of a fetish which he would never imagine actually indulging in for fear of shame or embarrassment. Porn caters to extremes, and it's not that your body type is of little interest to men but rather that it's of little interest to men who use porn. Maybe most guys who are with women of your body type are so happy and fulfilled they don't feel the compulsion to use porn.

 Even the women in porn don't LOOK like what you "see" in the porn. Camera angles, make up, "outfits", lighting can make ANYONE - SERIOUSLY anyone look like someone else.
So no, I don't think YOU have a body type NO man finds attractive.
But you MAY not attract as much attention because you don't seem to like your own body.
I know when I gained from having kids I REALLY hated my body the extra 60lbs made me feel like I was wearing one of those blow-up sumo wrestler suits. I avoided many of the things I really loved to do, go swimming, be out in public. When I lost the weight - which was seriously hard work, I felt SO great about myself again and THAT attracted a lot more attention than I wanted. It wasn't my body was OH SO much better looking - it was my overall attitude and well, self-love.
Now if your BF said he was looking at either skinny or BIG girls because he couldn't find any that looked like you, HE is full of crap. I think he probably was looking at those types because 1. they ARE easier to find 2. he looked for specific "actresses" 3. they are the types he doesn't see at home.
I don't think there is a category for slightly, but not really overweight or he hasn't found any that appeal to him (not the body type but WHAT they are doing in the porn.
PS, I read an article not that long ago that "plump" is "in" when it comes to pornstars - they are just not sold as that.
I mean if you think about it, the CATAGORIES for porn are often based on race, color, type of sex or size of boobs/butt.
Lastly, I don't understand why you even WANT to compare yourself with porn"stars".....

reader, anonymous, writes (20 February 2017): Purely physically with no emotional connection men would be attracted to within 1 standard deviation of a healthy, trim body type. That is largely biological. Porn doesn't necessarily cater for that as you now have porn look. The rise in popularity of more girl next door and naked selfies is probably a push back against this. Please note though that men are different so he may find you irresistibly attractive both emotionally and physically. You don't have to appeal to the average male because the average male probably does nothing for the average female. Oh and definitely don't discount your worth on insecurities because you don't look like an artificial porn version of beauty.

reader, anonymous, writes (20 February 2017): Hi I'm the asker if this question . Of course I see myself as a whole person and not just a body . Incidentally I see the women in porn as whole people too . Every human being is a whole person and not just a body in my opinion. I have never understood a mentality of dehumanising women and in porn and treating them as nothing more than bodies. This to me is a horrible thing. I am all for human rights and recognise that they add real people behind those cameras .
I'm not sure why you think I see myself as only a body or why I would ever want to see them ( or any human being ) as only a body ?
I was asking if my body type is one that is of little interest to men that's all

 Why do you only see yourself in terms of your body? You are a whole person. Your body is just PART of you. The women in the porn films ARE just bodies, at least for the purposes of the films.
If your boyfriend makes you feel insecure, then it is time to change your boyfriend.

reader, anonymous, writes (20 February 2017): NO that is absolutely not true. Did you post the last question about your bf looking at porn with different body types too? Or was that another person with the same problem?In any event, I think what it shows about your boyfriend is that he likes all body types. I don't think he is lying when he says it is harder to find "middle of the road" body types. Things in porn tend to be exaggerated, extra skinny, extra youthful girly girls, or bbw as you say, from what I have heard from guys, extremes are easily searchable. Porn is an exaggeration of everything, so usually you don't see the average. But obviously in real life men love the average as much as anything.If anything I would take heart that he is looking at a variety of different body types. That just tells me he does NOT have a type, but finds it all attractive, all kinds of females, thin, thick, etc. (which most men do). The other thing which has been discussed on here before is that sometimes men tend to look for the body types they are not seeing at home in their porn. That is because they want variety and fantasy. They have you in the flesh already, so to add to the variety of body types in their head they fill in the others :S That does not mean they aren't just as attracted to yours.Honestly I, as a woman, find the whole porn thing messed up though. If it upsets you, like it does me, I would consider asking him to severely reduce or stop using porn. Sometimes men don't realize how hurtful it is. Good luck
