Etymology

The word 'plumper' originates from the adjective 'plump', which has been in use since the late 14th century, derived from Middle English 'plumpe', probably a blend of Middle Dutch 'plomp' or Middle High German 'plump' meaning 'to fall' or 'to bounce'. Over time, 'plump' evolved to describe softness, fullness, or roundness in objects or bodies. The transition to 'plumper' as a noun can be seen as a natural linguistic evolution, reflecting changing societal views on body image and diversity. In contemporary contexts, the term has been reclaimed by some as a body-positive descriptor, celebrating fuller figures rather than stigmatizing them.
