Overweight to me depends on a lot of things, including a person's height and the size of their frame.
Personality is what I am most interested in, but I must admit I do judge people by appearances, as well. I tend to form unfavorable opinions of people who are unwashed, with greasy hair, and dirty clothing, if they have the means to be in another condition and just don't take enough pride in themselves to take care of their outsides. Obviously, some people do not have the resources to bathe regularly or wear clean clothing, but I am not talking about them. I am talking about people, both men and women, who are just skanky and gross. And skanky and gross has nothing to do with the size or shape of their bodies, the color of their skin, or any other physical characteristic like a misshapen limb.
So the most honest answer I can give you is this: when I see a generously proportioned woman (but it works the same with men, for me), I either see a big beautiful woman who takes care of herself, or I see an overweight, unattractive lady who does not. And either way, I make an effort, if their personality is appealing, to get to know them for who they are inside.

it varys. IMHO anyone over 10 - 15 pounds of the *ideal* weight (factored by height, age, ect...) is over weight. The BMI also plays a big factor.
A woman, 25yo, 5'8, 145lbs and a BMI of 22% - that's pretty ideal.

A BBW is a woman who loves herself and life too much to be concerned with what a narrow minded societal standard of beauty is.
She is secure in herself, her happiness, her loves, desires and needs and carries herself with diginity despite adversity, and opinons contrary to what she knows to be true about her self.
