For years Plus Size women have been discriminated against. There is constant bombardment from the media and the fashion industry to be stick thin. BODacious Inc. is trying to change society's perception of full figured people. The plus size community is not ugly, lazy or stupid; as what is portrayed by today's media. Our goal is to change the view of the world about our under represented plus size community.
Our first step in doing this is attempting to put an additional meaning of the word bodacious in the Webster's dictionary. We believe full figured people should have size positive words that represent them instead of the negativity that surrounds the community today.
This petition stands up for plus size rights by encouraging a positive spin in describing a fat person. If you would like to support our cause, please sign this petition, because it's not only our petition, it's yours.
Petition for an additional meaning of bodacious to be listed officially in the US Merriam Webster dictionary as a descriptive word for 'sexy fuller-figured person'.
We would like to include an additional definition of "bodacious" to be listed as a descriptive word. The adjectives sexy and voluptuous are there but voluptuous just means full. Where is fat or fuller figured? Bodacious means and represents the sexy fuller-figured person, man or woman, and this definition should be added to the dictionary.
Word: bodacious Function: adjective Etymology: probably blend of bold and audacious Date: 1832
1. Descriptive of a sexy, full-figured person; or something of that nature.
So please sign your name and be counted and let's hit our mark and try to make it official.
Thank you for your anticipated support, Azikiwe I. Ukaeje Jennifer Cherry Vanessa Reece Stacy L. Taylor Amanda M. Tucker

The word bodacious is not currently in the dictionary as a descriptive noun. Yeah, the adjectives sexy and voluptuous are but voluptuous just means full. Where is fat or fuller figured? Bodacious means and represents the sexy fuller-figured person, man or woman, and this definition should be added to the dictionary.

I agree 100% I have always loved the full figured woman. It is like I always say and stand by... The bigger the berry the better and sweeter the juice. Plus size woman have it going on and I personally would rather have a plus size female than a skinny old stick any day.
