I mean, can we please get some "full-Figured", "chubby", or "bbw" up in here? Please?

"Baby fat," "flabby", "heavy" and "very fat."  

...the existing ones you mentioned?  Instead of adding additional body type descriptions, perhaps the ones mentioned by the OP could replace the existing descriptions.

I have suggested TER adopting something more in line with the P411 descriptions:
Skinny
Slender
Athletic
Muscular
Average
Curvy
Voluptuous
BBW
Super-BBW

but even I have to admit, there could be much better choices than the ones we have now.

Even a non PC guy like me could get behind "curvy" or "voluptuous" as opposed to "baby fat" or "heavy" and I would be ok if "thin" and "skinny" were merged into one, especially as one mans "thin" is another mans "skinny"

Athletic is also one of those terms that can mean anything from a lithe, dancer type, to a member of the East German weight lifting team. I usually don't have a clue what the reviewer actually means by that term until I either see the providers pics, or the provider myself in person.

I just don't see a need on a board that talks about jizz shots to the face in reviews to make PC changes to references to a gals waistline.

I hate the word skinny
I wear size extra small or small but I am well defined
I am a fucking athlete
That would be my description

...rude to heavy women by using "flabby" and "very fat" then thin women should be treated the same way.

If we are going to be flattering, how about slim or slender for "non fat" women?

I have already agreed that full figured or voluptuous would be better terms for larger women, but I still think that flabby, although it's not very flattering, is still an accurate description for women of any size who have "let themselves go" and should remain.

I am also ok with the idea by PS, which suggests we adopt P411 descriptive labels, which while not perfect, are a huge improvement over what we have here now.

You are free to say what ever you like in your ads, but reviews are written by the guys, for the guys, and that's just the way review systems work.

and you might like the term BBW, but please don't think you speak for the entire community on this issue. Personally I hate the term, except when it actually applies, not all large women are beautiful any more than all smaller women. To lump them all in as somehow being beautiful just because they are fat is completely ridiculous IMO.

As for being height/weight appropriate, there is already a place to list height. I would be fine with adding a place to add weight as well. It of course would not be perfect as some guys are a horrible judge of weight, just like some guys are a horrible judge of cup size, height, age, and every other category we have. It's a built in flaw in the system, but letting the women fill in their own profiles is hardly a solution. Why don't we just let the women write their own reviews while we are at it.

...to "own" their weight and re-brand their image.  As such, it should not be a category on TER because it is merely spin and not a valid description.

That's exactly what PC is, BP.  It's coming up with different terminology for something to make low self esteem types feel better about themselves.  

Same terms can mean totally different things to two people brought up in the same culture but decades apart.  In my Dad's time a fag was a cigarette, in my time it was an insult to homosexuals, today's kids view it as an insult to loud bikers from South Park.  Yeah, that's a reach if you don't watch South Park, so let's put it into hobby terms:

I refer to myself as a "fat" quite regularly.

But can you honestly say that you can look at a person, any person, and tell them how much they weigh within 20lbs?  

...no idea what baby fat was supposed to mean. I imagined it to mean she had a bit of a tummy. (Not a roll.) Somewhere on here it's been discussed and I found that's what other guys thought too.  

I don't take offense to any of the size listings that are up now, but I do think there's some confusing overlap.  

The body type description should focus on of the " firmness" or "body tone" as opposed to "body fat" which most likely refers to being :flabby".  Would suggest using the term "firm, full-figure" to indicate the person is above average in terms of body size, BUT, considered to be physically fit as opposed to " flabby". This would be a much more accurate description of AA women whose physiques/body contours are significantly different those of women of other racial groups. Doubt that this will happen because the primary "judges" are white guys who use their standards of what is attractive which compares how other women stack up to how they compare to white women. Whenever I submit a review on large AA women, the choices given by TER to describe her physically is difficult because none of the option are even close to giving a fair description of her.

Its not a matter of being "Politically Correct" but being "ACCURATE" in the description of body type. In general black and white women of the same age, weight, and height have noticeable different physiques (contours). The butts and thighs of black women are more pronounced than women of any other race and in terms of weight and "firmness". Which is why black women have "round" , firm booties and white women have "flat"," broad" ," soft" booties. The term "Firm, Full-figured" should be one of the descriptive terms used to "large" women who are not "flabby" or have baby fat.

Who wants to be called "flabby" or VERY FAT lmao

Support the inclusion of the term "FIRM, Full-figured" to describe body shape. For BBWs body "firmness" or "Body "Tone" is a more  ACCURATE  indication of how "attractive" the lady is thought to be. "Flabby" , "Baby Fat", and "Chubby" are generally viewed as negatives;  on the other hand, Good body tone is always perceived as a positive attribute regardless of body size (slim, skinny, average, or large).

That[s the main idea - all 4 descriptions are negative. FIRM, full-figured is a POSITIVE attribute. Personally, I prefer full-figure ladies who have good body tone or are firm. Until a positive term to describe BBWs is included as an option, I shall check "other" when describing body type and go to great lengths to describe in my reviews why I find them attractive.

Its not a matter of being "politically correct" but the inclusion of terms that more accurately describe the body type of large ATTRACTIVE ladies in a positive  light. From the words provided to describe above average in size - it must be assumed that all these ladies in this category are unattractive when compared to slender or petite ladies. It is true that not all large ladies are attractive just as all slender or petite ladies are attractive. A greater effort needs to be put forth to not put ALL large women in the same category. Efforts are made to NOT to place other ladies into a single category.
