Plus Size Dating: Where Bigger is Definitely Better

Plus size dating means different things to different people. Some fashion designers would probably argue that anyone over a size 8 is way too porky to wear their clothes.

The average woman in the USA and Canada is a dress size 14 (size 16 in the UK).

Plus size dating sites don't require that you be a certain size to join, just that you feel comfortable identifying yourself as a plus size, or admire people who are plus sized.
