I love it when comments take on a life of their own.

agree, bilby. I've always used 'concave' to mean someone sort of sunken-chested or way skinny.

I think I'm voting for for serial-convexation.

A convex woman would have absolutely nothing sticking out anywhere; ie she'd be like a sphere. Too big, no shape. Non-convex to me implies the right things are sticking out the right places.

Don't you mean non-concave? Or have I been drooling over the wrong kinds of women?

I've always liked the term non-convex to refer to this type of woman. Clearly nonstandard usage, and it may not even be obvious to most people who hear it. But to me the description is perfect.

Haha sionnach!

I don't mind the gaps. I think it's a good thing if the female of the species has gaps in the right places.

well-upholstered?

Big-boned.

But if they're all interesting and they're all the words you want on your list, I'd say you don't have any gaps at all. :-)

Nothing explicitly wrong with ample, robust, and curvaceous.

In fact—segue to a metawordiernal ¶—I struggle with this. I have lists that could conceivably hold lots of words, but I don't want to be promiscuous and let in any old word. I want the interesting ones. So my lists often show gaps. Which, I don't know which is worse, including boring words or having my gaps show.

Adoarns, how about ample, robust, curvaceous?

Forgot about that song, John! Thanks for citing it.

generously-endowed

Reminds me of that Taj Mahal song, "Keep Your Hands Off Her":

She's a heavy-hippin mama,
she's got them great big legs,
when she walks
she shakes like a soft-boiled egg

That's not a euphemism, that's a paean :-)

I like this list. Thanks, adoarns!

Big Beautiful Women, that is, and the terms we use to describe them without being cruel.
