@Olo RIP. 😔

@protect-tinies Dad jokes have nothing on giant jokes.

@skysayl I can’t say for sure, because I guess we don’t imagine the same things - where you imagine overwhelming full-body sensations, I focus on small, localised sensations on my body, mostly my hands, chest, and, well, privates. My hands are really good at getting those “phantom” sensations by pure imagination…

But having external stimulis never hurts! I found this stress ball squishy thingy, but in a different material than most, it’s NOT the jelly ones, I can’t explain but its texture is leathery/smooth and it doesn’t squish as much, like it offers some kind of resistance. If it was doll-sized and shaped, I would definitely use it to get the imagination going.

@Olo ahhh yes ~ to be able to bleed freely on an enormous pad would be pure bliss. It’s funny bc all of my non-sizey friends talk about rolling around on a Giant pad too lol

@SmolChlo I’m the self improvement guru then. 😆

@Jitensha oh man! This looks like a lot of fun!

RIP ☹

always just ‘tomorrow’ when asked if there is a day when they can have freedom or regrowth or mercy

Yes, I have had size interactions in real life, but I was the one who initiated them, so I’m not sure if that still “counts.” 😁

I’ve romantically/flirtatiously roleplayed size stuff with more than one girl I was potentially interested in. I did it in a normie-friendly, playful way, not in a kinky-sounding way or in a way that would set off a normal person’s creep-o-meter. I never told them it was a kink or a special interest of mine or anything like that, because:

A) Why make it weird or awkward when it doesn’t need to be?
(Also, I wouldn’t want someone to feel pressured to play along, or to like something just because I like it.) B) It’s an impossible fantasy anyway, with no chance of ever happening in real life, so why would they need to know?

When I did this roleplaying, there were a couple girls who got really, REALLY into it. They embraced being tiny and loved every second of it (and embraced the idea of staying tiny indefinitely). No, I don’t think they had a size kink, and I don’t think they were sexually turned on by the sizey stuff itself…I think they just really enjoyed the emotions (and the flirtation) that came with the fantasy. I think it’s a fantasy that speaks to something pretty universal in the female psyche, which is the same reason why Twilight and 50 Shades of Grey became so mega-popular. I never got a negative response from any of the girls I tried it on. Maybe a couple neutral responses, but most of the time, the responses were either positive or VERY positive.

This isn’t related to roleplaying or size stuff specifically, but I would disagree with the idea that cheating is the point when you romantically desire someone else more than your partner. The thing about desire is that it’s not really something we can consciously control. I think it’s very unrealistic to expect that you will never see or encounter anyone who seems more desirable to you than your partner in some way, especially considering that there are eight billion people on this planet. What are the odds that the person you chose to build a relationship with is going to always and indefinitely be the most desirable person in the world to you? Very, very low. Plus people change, and relationships change over time, so you can’t expect desire to remain absolutely constant. That’s why long-term relationships are based on commitment and not on desire alone. That’s why it used to be so hard to get a divorce: it was meant to deter married people from abandoning their commitments just because they were having a bad day or a bad year, or because they saw a hot person in a bar and became infatuated.

I think there’s a world of difference between desire and action. I might hate my boss, and I might desperately want to wring his neck, but does that make me a murderer or a violent person? No. I’m not guilty of violence unless I act upon my desires, or unless I start making a plan to hurt my boss and I intend to follow through on that plan. When desire turns into action or serious intention, that’s when the line has been crossed. It’s the same way with cheating or with other “crimes.” Desire alone does not equal guilt.

Desire is involuntary, but action is voluntary. Action is something you can control, but desire is generally outside of your control…that’s the key difference. Why am I harping on this? Partly because I don’t want anyone to beat themselves up for something they can’t control. I don’t want anyone to beat themselves up for having perfectly natural and understandable desires that every human has. But the other reason is that I don’t want to see anyone use desire as an excuse. If you believe that having certain desires automatically makes you guilty, then it’s easier to rationalize certain behaviors to yourself. You might think, “I’m already guilty of cheating, because I desire someone else more than my partner…therefore I might as well do what my desires tell me to do, since I’m guilty either way!”

I won’t be attending but this did remind me my passport is expiring soon 🤔

@Giganto82 what they said

I totally agree with this sentiment. Enough with the giant woman trope… I want myself a tiny woman stat

@Olo love the hug holidays

@coolguy69 said in Does your size identity affect your body image?:

I wonder how you can ensure that it’s not your fate… lol

I don’t know if you were asking seriously, or maybe you misunderstand, but in my country we can make plans (with safeguards, of course) for this eventuality.

@giantmaneddie He should reach out on Coiled Fist for the M/m community. If POC have their own Size venues, I’m not aware of them.

“Sinbad, how can you love a tiny, insignificant female such as I?”

Rest in peace, princess. 😢

@Olo Ohh my bad! I saw the two interact but after I posted that I realized that tiny-taker was referring to it as their survey so I got very confused lol. With all the recent reblogs bringing it back up I’m hoping lilegite’s survey data crops up soon~
