I've seen more and more plus sized avs lately, and my first reaction is usually "Oh look, someone who is self-confident and looks like a real person". I always go out of my way to chat to them and feel out what kind of person they are, and almost every time they're fun-loving, sincere people.
I'm not talking about the bling babes who fill all the gangsta groups, with size-80 butts, big tits and hoochie hair. They're nothing but shallow caricatures.
Well-done plus-sized avs can be beautiful as well, and to me are a sign of courage.
