Young Fatties claims to be the 'one and only fat teen place'. A couple of seconds spent typing 'fat teenagers naked' into google proves this claim to be false. The site says that there are 70,000 photos on offer and 12,000 downloadable videos. According to the blurb, subscribing to Young Fatties will grant you access to a world full of 18-23 year old models who are more than a little on the chunky side.

Once you log in, the site is pretty simple. It's easy on the eye and simple to navigate - white text on a blue background, with the most popular photographic sets on the left hand side. At this point, you're also informed that you've got access to Cuties In Tights, Flower Panties, Pee Hunters, Plumper World, Plump Mature and Matures World.

While the site says that it updates with exclusive material three times a week, the 'news' section features around two listed updates a month, one in the middle of the month and one at the end of the month.

There are currently 270 photographic sets on this site. One nice feature is that members can 'rate' the photographs and leave comments - this has a downside, however, as some of the comments and ratings are less than friendly. At a glance, you'll find girls of all shapes and sizes - the majority of the girls could be classed as big, with sizes ranging from curvy to huge. As with a lot of porn sites, I'm a little sceptical of their claim that all the girls are teens, and a few of them look to be pushing 30. However, there are a few skinny girls in the gallery as well, so not every single set will contain the BBW that you're looking for.

The photographs look to be cheerfully amateur and mostly have been taken in apartments and houses. There's a couple of bondage sets in there, some girl on girl, guy on girl, some group sex and some toys - it's a real mixed bag. They aren't available in an easy zip file download. While looking at a set the only real navigation you have is 'previous' and 'next' - for individual photos, and for the sets. You're given the chance to view sets as a slide show, if you're um.. hands-free.

Similarly to the photographs, the videos are also pretty mixed. There are no video options - some of them are .avi, some are .wmv and some are .mpeg but each of the videos is only available in one format and it's pot luck as to how they've been formatted. They're also huge - most of them are in parts which are well over 100mb and even on a 2mb broadband connection it was a good 30 minutes before I could watch 10 minutes of Amanda getting down and dirty with her playmate.

The second video I saw was a girl going through the motions of masturbating for around 10 minutes, her eyes squeezed tightly closed the entire time and without as much as a whimper of pleasure. On the other hand, another video - one which had received a lot of praise from those who had watched it, was miles hotter, thanks to a girl who really did seem to be enjoying herself. In all cases it took far, far longer to download the films than it did to watch them and the fact that they are in segments is a little annoying, to say the least.

As with the photos, users can rate and comment on the videos - and again, not all the comments are good. Members use them as sounding boards for complaints about the site, the videos, technical issues and the fact that they're being charged to watch these films.

Aside from some erotic fiction (meh..) and links to other websites, there's not much else on offer from Young Fatties. I was also less-than-impressed to notice that it added itself as a favourite to my browser toolbar, without bothering to ask - not ideal if you're on a shared computer.

It's one of those sites that consistently scores fairly highly on review sites, but I'm at a loss to explain how. Especially when there are sites such as American Daydreams getting the same kind of scores, and are far superior in every way. Maybe youngfatties.com stands out as one of the best BBW sites out there, but I really hope not.

Young Fatties is a bit hit and miss, really. When they score a hit, they do it really well - but those videos are few and far between, unfortunately. Still, if BBW are your thing, with Plumper World and Plump Mature thrown in for free there are probably worse places you could start your BBW porn collection. But there's bound to be better stuff out there, too.
