@SmolChlo Ngl, it would be fascinating to watch someone not into size kink try to engage in it. Just watching them try to figure out what you find appealing about it. It might be attractive and definitely amusing to witness. 😆

Huh. Well, I got that completly wrong then.

@The-Big-G I’m sure you’ll get it if you take another look at the examples, but the options loosely correlate to the many categories and content tags that Size folk use to describe images, stories, scenarios, etc. I’ve all but decided there will be “meta-categories” like Size Range, Gender Configuration, Activities, Theme, Tone, Genre.

Examples of Size Range: “Doll” or “3-4 inches.”

Examples of Gender Configuration: “M/f” or “F/f.”

Examples of Activities: “Handheld” or “Cock Riding.”

Examples of Theme: “Historical” or “Fairytale Land”

Examples of Tone: “Gentle” or “Callous.”

Examples of Genre: “Romance” or “Horror.”

I reserve the right to revise any or all of this without notice once I start compiling.

@Olo

Yup. All islands, everywhere, are basiclly abandoned, since they’re too small to be effectively protected for how rare giants are. Antarctica is basiclly gone, and the containment zones mean large parts of Asia, North America, and Africa are basiclly cordoned off as de facto sacrifices for the various Mid-Sizes. Stuff on the water’s edge is theoretically protected, but it’s very ‘on your head be it’ levels of risk for those who live there (the spring break parties are even wilder in such places than they are now, since most of the beach goers are to some extent adrenaline junkies); ship based trade has dropped substantially, because out in the ocean is filled with monsters, replace with more air freight and less need to in general because of more advanced technology.

Compared to the current amount of people on land, it’s now closer to 2/3s or even a 1/2, I’d think.

@Olo This is absolutely amazing. I love the way she is holding all those girls. Although Overwatch has died a long time ago. Pictures like these keep the ip strong. Thank you so much for this. 😊

My personal thoughts on this type of trope is that it is a little difficult to tackle where trans people are put in this trope, but I am very glad the post that started this thread included trans people. Then again, I don’t write, I just read, so I could be wrong about how hard it is to implement trans people in this trope.

In the past I have railed against the “all men and only men shrink” scenario because I (perhaps uncharitably) suspected insecure straight shrunken men of adding an unnecessary and illogical constraint just to avoid any possibility of encountering a giant cock. I become even more uncharitable when all the women instantly adapt to the new world order and have identically dehumanizing attitudes toward all shrunken men. It’s the lazy writing in service of a too-transparent thirst that offends me.

I have since become less strident on this issue and allowed that there can be multiple reasons for scenarios like this and that different writers can put their own unique spin on it. I still insist on there being some explanation for this phenomenon other than “it fuels my fetish.”

The trans issue is delicate. I recall @Taedis saying that they wanted to attempt an “all men shrink including transmen” story. I don’t think I’m equal to writing a story in this vein, and if I did I would probably be obnoxious enough to have some trans people grouped with their identified gender and some grouped with their birth-assigned gender.

@TakoAlice8 Oh, a nose boop is far too gentle. You gotta make it into more of a boxing match!

Ooh were you guys using box/Sherman traps? One of my other favorite things that is such size fodder is when we trap small rodents in Sherman traps (they’re live traps for catch and release) in the winter, we’ll throw in cotton balls to keep them warm. But sometimes, in the morning, they’re still chilly, so we’ll hold them in our pockets until they’ve warmed up enough and then release them in a safe spot

Yes we did, in fact! It was during the cooler months and were set up for nocturnal capture, so we used hobby fill to help keep them warm. We checked and released early in the morning though, because it would get hot and sunny during the day and we didn’t want them to cook. Animal welfare was a top priority.

We also used pitfall traps (i.e. buckets in a trench) in which we placed some sand, bait, a PVC tube with hobby fill, and (this got me) a square of cork for any creatures to hold on to in case the bucket filled with water overnight 😭

just makes me think of a brownie/borrower/tiny human getting in one on accident and then getting warmed up by a giant hand

Bruh, my mind full GT/SW wandering during stand-by times!

I think it’s like the idea that art imitates culture, and culture also imitates art. It’s a constant feedback loop. I don’t see it as an “either/or” kind of thing…I see it as “both/and.” Art shapes people’s taste AND their taste shapes art. It’s hard to separate the two or to tell where one begins and the other ends.

@SmolChlo those are great stories I often imagine myself as the titan in them.

@ricenoodle I have favorite kinks or specific activities, and when I first discovered other size fantasists online that’s all I focused on. Size remains a primarily sexual area of imagination for me, but in recent years I have expanded my interests to mixed-size relationships, different takes on world-building, and “slice of life” scenarios. Exploring a wider variety of perspectives just makes it more real for me.

@SmolChlo I really like the way you shrink, I mean think 😉

@foreverlurk How could anyone resist a bit of teasing? Even my gentlest giants can’t help themselves sometimes. ❤

@foreverlurk I have endless fun with state agencies placing tinies in “caring homes.” See also workplace accommodations and non-discriminatory hiring practices.

@foreverlurk said in Language barrier:

Even the terms used for descriptions in English might change as the understanding grows (ie. “giant captor” --> “giant savior”)

I think the trickiest part of it all would be trying not to give away too much of what you’re thinking or feeling. Getting it just right and making those small changes like in your example can definitely add to the experience. Managing to get a tiny’s trust would probably feel so nice. 😊

My Sindarin is a bit rusty but during the solar eclipse last week, at totality my daughter turned to me and said “mornië alantië!” which made me tear up a bit (and a very proud father lol)

LOL. That’s hilarious and adorable! ❤ ❤ ❤

@Olo wasn’t able to attend just saw it in @MightyTinyGiant twitter feed after they appeared at the con I was scrolling there twitter feed
