Why are women called broads?

It is considered offensive by most women because it is used to describe the woman as a thing rather than a person.

Answer 2

Wide or widespread: The building had wide windows. The author's works were widely known.

In the past it was a slang expression (usually somewhat derogatory) for a woman, especially one who was less than respectable.

Answer 3

The reason why women are sometimes nicknamed "broads" - (or used to be, before political correctness took firm control of the English language...!) - is 'broadly' obvious... Namely, that when viewed from behind, the adult female figure generally looks much "broader in the beam" and thus proportionally wider across the hips than that of her male counterpart - a commonplace image often accentuated by the narrow wasp-like waist of the ideal woman.
