So I've been using this site for about a year now, and something interesting i've noticed is that there is a discrepancy between (what I perceive to be) the average age of users between boards. I've noticed the art focused boards seem to skew younger with a bunch of zoomer slang and "fandom Twitter" behavior in them while the irl boards seem to skew older, with older media being refrenced and more typical chan board language and behavior.

Has anyone else noticed this? If so, what would you say the cause is?

Your mention of image board culture made me bite, albeit my contribution here is more about culture than age.
Bbwchan has such a unique fucking composition. Draw does seem to draw more people less tolerant of image board lingo (faggot, nigger, etc), but even on 4chan you're barely called a nigger anymore.
Tits has a ton of normies who, interestingly enough, seem to be the only people ever complaining about models being fat on the fat women forum. Don't see them much around I feel.
Booty is one of a kind on the internet. I'm convinced it's the only image board populated by a majority of niggers. Frequent emoji use, ghetto slang and people aping in the comments all make me think this. It fits perfectly well with the stereotype but it's so obvious that it is NOT the same user base posting on booty as on the rest of the site.
The games thread on alt is full of minors, mouth breathers, autismos or a combination of all three. Occasionally there's good discussion there but it's rare.
Elite and threads dedicated to the more niche fetishes (loli, as well as many others) are usually the groups that seen the most sane and with by far the most "image board literacy".
Gen, BBW and ssbbw has a lot of boomers posting I feel.

Kisame here I am motivated by special interests instead of people as an autistic. I choose to accept that I am autistic.

Great analysis anon. /booty/ will never not amaze me at how low the bar can go with phoneposting and twitter lingo. Every now and then there is the stray retard that asks for "wins" on /bbw/ and it sticks out like that scene in Inglorious Basterds

/booty/ is barely readable. Threads aren't even good either. It's all just random women. No Randalin, No TheButtXXX. Not even Ms. FUCKING Cleo.

That was my first thought, but I feel like it just needs to be deeper than that.

>>80743
>my contribution here is more about culture than age.
Those things are very strongly correlated. It's how I came to the conclusions about the boards' average ages.

>Draw does seem to draw more people less tolerant of image board lingo
It almost feels like people on /bbwdraw/ seem to actively push back against image board culture at times. Seems odd to me. Why would you use a chan site if you don't like or can't tolerate chan culture? Go back to Deviantart or wherever.

Another thing I've noticed about /bbwdrawn/ is that it has alot of shizos even outside of the fucking containment thread. It's normal 95% of the time, but when that 5% shows it's fucking insane. I'm still in awe of the guy who wrote Sonic the Hedgehog songs parodies about how a certain WG artist is a Mossad agent.

>on 4chan you're barely called a nigger anymore.
True. Wonder why that is. If I had to take a guess it has something to do with younger people starting to use the site, regardless of political alignment. Really the only conext you see it in now is when it's explicitly refering to a black person. "Jeet" seems to be the new popular vernacular.

>Tits has a ton of normies who, interestingly enough, seem to be the only people ever complaining about models being fat on the fat women forum
Lol.
Lmao, even.

Also that explains why that board is so fucking boring, then. I never use it beccause of that.

>/booty/...
Might have to go see what's going on there. I've looked at it before, but I found the thread topics and the imagery to be boring as fuck so I didn't stick around. On a side note, it makes me cringe very hard whever I see someone using emojis on this site. It's the same feeling as biting into a randomly hard part of food that's normally soft.

>The games thread on alt...
Seems like the kind of crowd the idea of fat-fetish games would attract.

>Gen, BBW and ssbbw has a lot of boomers posting I feel.
This is what inspired me to make this thread. It seems, to me, that the average /gen/ poster is pushing 40 while the average /bbwdraw/ user just left (or is still in) high school.

Overall, good analysis, anon! I agree with alot of the points you made.

/bbfurries/ has alot of autistic children, I feel. That does makes sense to me, though, since the furry community pulls in alot of kids and I feel that it also has a bit of a grooming problem. Even if nobody directly grooms you, the culture of the fandom just seems to lean into the sexual and fetishistic. Kids under 18 just shouldn't be involved with furry shit if you ask me. I have a friend who was a furry in high school and later left the fandom. I have stories I can tell about him.

I hate trying to discern which anon's an underage b& or a User before I immediately begin mocking them. The latter's funny to watch meltdown, but the former? Scary shit, man. I've managed to report at least one to the mods and he had his Youtube channel in the "Name" field.
>the culture of the fandom just seems to lean into the sexual and fetishistic.
True. Although, I think it should've stayed a fetish community rather than a "fandom". I've never seen people call "bondage" a fandom. Are you part of the bbw fandom? BBWfist!
>Kids under 18 just shouldn't be involved with furry shit if you ask me.
I wish more people shared this sentiment.
>>80764
So buttplug grab is here too
Gen is weird. There are obviously plenty of mature, sensible people on here, but then you look at the way some threads get hijacked, and there's an alarming number of people who most like maladjusted 14-year-olds, and therefore presumably are maladjusted 14-year-olds.

I wouldn't call furrys a fetish, it's just an aspect of the community. Furrys were always about liking anytho animal characters in general first, it's just thst liking them sexually has always been a big part of the community too, which has caused alot of interal stife. Frederick Knudsen made a really good pair of videos about the early history of the community years ago. I'd recomend watching them if you're interesed in learning more/want to verify what I've said.

Overall agreed with you, though.

I think it has to do with what someone is used to. Older guys "outgrew" jackin off to art. this means /bbw/ and /ssbbw/ are the most "boomerish". Note that /ssbbw/ in particular is also a blatantly autist-heavy (ha!) board, in my opinion. The entire site is (autism and fat fetishism connection should be researched more), but that board in particular is an exemplar. This also makes it more "boomerish" as spergs and boomers can be very similar.

>autism and fat fetishism connection should be researched more
Most wierd fetishes are born of autism imo. The wired the fetish, the more autistic it is. The current theory I'm workshoping is that strange fetishes like fat, inflation, vore, etc. evolve from ideas and tropes that child have innocent, yet austistic fixations on. Then as those children reach puberty, something happens im their brain that changes that innocent fixation to become sexual. I'm far from a psychologist, but that's what I've been able to some up with
>>80764
furries were never a purely sexual community? nerdy communities are just sexual af, especially the oldschool ones from the 80s and 90s
what percentage of us are chuds and what percentage are moggers
What about the /bbwai/

Im the reason youre friends again. But fuck me right lol

Not really, /elite/ definitely leans older. I know people there and they're mostly older millennial and Gen-X
>>81065
Wouldn't know since I don't use that board. Not a fan of masturbating to hot garbage.

Zoomers don't have the attention span to read a written text.
I think that the fat fetish user base in Asia is very very low and also young. Its just starting to wiggle in genz who have the money and time to jerk off to fat women. Also as a sidenote, asian and south-east asian young adults do not get any kind of privacy so the jerk off rates are low. Most of the people over here are hardwired to like really petite and nimble women.
>>81006
That's all communities man, the "old school ones" in particular exactly because there were a lot of IRL meets

Running club? They fuckin.
Hiking? They fuckin but the average age is like... 60
Really anywhere mixed groups with similar interests meet, they just trend to sex

>>81000
Idk, I don't think fat is that odd compared to inflation or vore. It's more like feet imo
Has anyone else noticed a pipeline where normies start getting interested in fat girls?

>Guy likes art with big boobs, moves on to girls with "thicc" proportions
>Realizes that girls can't get those proportions IRL with being at least somewhat fat
>Starts liking the other aspects of fat girls like belly and cellulite
>>81120
Thast what happened to me 18 years ago. Now I'm 31 lol. I imagine there's just more exposure and normalization of it these days, so we'll see a lot more of it

/bbwai/ is a rotten sewer filled with children and mentally handicapped adults.
I remember back in 2024(?) there was a guy who kept spamming with crappy images of fat 12 year old girls wearing american flag tank tops, straight up walls of that shit.
The old request threads sometimes had decent pictures coming out, but you could tell it was full of autistic children just by looking at the characters who they'd spam requests for to the point that every contributor eventually got tired and dipped.
A lot funnier are the occasional guys (probably one guy, but never underestimate the retardation of the masses) who'd come onto the board thinking it had a built-in ai generator and would just type in prompts hoping to get something. One time I saw someone humour one of these requests (something along the lines of "I want to rp with a cute fat girl") by pretending to be a chatbot, to which the dude responded with some weebshit like "H-hi do you wanna.... go out?" but the thread had already bumplocked by then.
