What are the best bbw plus size fashion tips for a first date?

I’m new to this space and I’m trying to find communities that are respectful. What are the best bbw plus size fashion tips for a first date?

A few things I’m prioritizing:

• Strong block/report tools
• Ability to filter for serious intent
• Less spam and fewer empty profiles
