I want to preface this thread by saying that I am aware that this topic has already been discussed on this board, although not recently. I also want to address the topic in a respectful way.

Many of us have noticed that the proportion of slim escorts working for escort agencies has been decreasing over the past decade or so. Perhaps (or not) agency owners would like to hire more slim women, but there may be a lack of candidates. Indeed, a look at recently published official obesity statistics shows that obesity has increased significantly among the Canadian population. More specifically, for women aged 18 to 29, the obesity rate has almost doubled between 2003 and 2023, going from 13 to 22% (source below). Based on the graph in the article, we can estimate that there is an additional ca. 32% of overweight (not obese) women, leaving ca. 46% with a healthy weight or underweight. Obesity is linked to poor mental health by experts cited in the article below. (Based on the same statistics, we would likely notice that clients have been getting bigger, too, because on average, everyone has! The obesity rate is however increasing faster for women than for men.)

There are still slim escorts on agency rosters. However one has to be careful if they want to assess the situation by looking at the websites, because published weights are almost never accurate, and pictures are often photoshopped and/or dated (this varies a lot depending on the agency; some are excellent at being accurate). Like many other men, I have preference for slim women, although preferences may vary among other clients. What we can conclude from the above and the use of these in-person services, is that agency rosters seem to reflect relatively well trends seen in the general population, as it relates to body mass index (BMI).

At a population level, healthy lifestyle habits (sleep, exercise, nutrition), increased attention to the importance of mental health, in addition to (perhaps) more widespread use of GLP-1 agonists (Ozempic and others) could reverse or at least slow down this trend.

P.S.: If we are unable to have a respectful discussion on this topic, I will delete this thread. Thank you for your cooperation.

if you're paying they are better be to your liking.

I noticed many agencies photoshop the pictures when you come in it is frequent they have a few pounds over the advertised description. I usually leave when the difference is too deceiving.

Do you understand what the difference is between someone who is actually obese, and someone who is not thin? To be obese you have to have a BMI of 30. That means, at my height, I could gain 70 pounds and still not be obese technically. I have worked with women who applied for agencies in the 2000's and who worked for them 10-15 years ago, if you were not ultra skinny, they would not hire you. It's the same thing with strip clubs, a lot of them will refuse girls who have an ''average weight'' because they aren't super thin. I heard the same thing about age, if you were over 30 an agency wouldn't hire you in the past but I've had 2 popular agencies ask me if I wanted to work for them in the past 2 years and I'm 30+...

Beauty standards and what is seen as desirable change, 20 years ago in order to be considered attractive you had to be ''ready for the hospital'' thin. Most of my friends had eating disorders growing up and I have a friend who died of anorexia. 10 years ago things started changing, what is seen as attractive is someone who has a big ass and curves. Maybe that's not to your liking, but a lot of men love that. When I worked at a salon 2 years ago, I was one of the thinnest girls there and my look was not popular. Guys went for the curvy girls.

I highly doubt an agency will hire someone who is actually obese.. even if there is a niche for BBW's and some of them are quite popular

For me, a very slim/ borderline skinny woman feels a bit unhealthy, especially after 25. However, the most important is to be comfortable and confident in your skin. And believe me, it shows. If the importance of the penile size is debatable, the woman’s weight is not. The other factors trump it easily.

Around the corner
I have never had an issue finding someone to my liking.
I don’t ask how much a lady weighs, my eyes are still quite good I know what I like when I see it.
Basically average to tall in height, someone with an hour glass figure, nice curves in the right places and rear end, long dark hair if possible and a pretty face.
Not that difficult to find actually.
Spinners and BBW are not really my thing.

Some guys are into that. It's fine to prefer thin women and I do think that if stats on websites are too misleading the SPs themselves will pay for it, but really often people with the same height and weight can look completely different... Depending on muscle mass, body type etc.

When I was younger ultra skinny was in style and women who were at a healthy weight were often called fat. Remember when people said Britney Spears was too big? Maybe she was too big to some people's liking but she definitely was at a healthy weight..

It's like everything else on the market. There's a race between businesses to offer the shittiest product/service for the highest price possible. The sex industry is not spared

BMI is an imperfect tool. Sheesh.
It doesn't differentiate between fat and muscle and it's useless for minorities

Anyway. Just because one is considered slim doesn't mean they are healthy while one who has a BMI over 30 is unhealthy and overweight

I don't think it's an imperfect tool. It's just the wording it use vs the meaning of those words (underweight, healthy, overweight, obese) has evolved or maybe the perception.
We are comparing scientific meaning with subjective meaning.

To the BMI scale I am overweight :(

BMI is used as a societal index to follow the population health as a whole, as a median marker. It shouldn't be used for each individual, since as you say, there's no difference between muscles and fat.

For sure, but I doubt that this increase in BMI is due to people becoming weight lifters... We're looking at high level population stats, and at present, BMI is the only measure available at large, although doctors/scientists are working to develop a more accurate one.

It's possible that hiring practices have changed, but only agency owners could tell us if it's the case and why.

On your point you are assuming that general population overweight is reflecting on the agencies roster.
But isn't it more fair to say that ladies in the roster are actually not impacted by that statistic and they often if not always fall into the percentage of the population who is not overweight?
You are also assuming that the agencies ladies weight has increased? If so you must have some sort of database that track such characteristics and over at least the same length of year as per the article time period?

If not the discussion can be closed! :p

Approximately, yes.

No. It's based on casual observations and prior discussions on this board. What I am saying is that population levels stats support the hypothesis that has been circulating among clients that the average escort BMI has increased. It is not a definitive conclusion, due to the absence of reliable data.
