What are your favorite personality types for giants/tinies?
-
For me it varies depending on my mood. I also don’t have any characterizations I dislike- ultimately it boils down to how well the giant is written. However, there are a few traits that always stand out to me.
I definitely love “himbo” giants. Handsome, well-meaning, but a bit ditzy. I feel like they’re perfect for playful and teasing interactions, while also being sweet and affectionate. Their absentmindedness gives a lot of opportunity for accidents to happen, and we love a bit of risk in our size fantasies. The biggest issue I’ve seen with this personality (in both giant and giantess content) is that sometimes they make the himbo/bimbo flat out dumb. It can get to the point where its unbelievable or obnoxious to read, so I do think there is a line that can be crossed.
On the complete opposite end of things, I love giants who are VERY serious, but also a bit oblivious to the tiny’s feelings. They’re super responsible, protective, and respectful of the SW- to the point where she wishes they weren’t. Maybe she has feelings for him or is attracted to his size, and wants him to unwind and be a little dominant. Usually these giants have to be told these things outright, and when they figure it out they get all flustered…
Anyway, enough rambling from me, I’m curious what you all enjoy. Especially what giants prefer from tinies! That’s a dynamic I can’t fully grasp obviously, so I’d love to know what personality traits make a tiny lady appealing.

“Redhead” and “three inches tall” aren’t personality traits, are they? /j
I think my favourite archetype for a tiny lady already has a subby demeanour, which they manage to hide well in society and at her normal size, apart from a slight lack of self-confidence. This all changes when she’s only a few inches tall, of course, as these traits gradually come to light and her behaviour changes. I usually love the rather unsure and shy girl who’s at least slightly embarrassed about being shrunk. I don’t like to think of her as having a size kink outright, but rather as someone experiencing a journey of self-discovery to accept her new size. I love when she gets flustered at the simple mention of her tiny size, and how easily she blushes when I tease her about it. Maybe she’s the kind of girl I never would have approached in real life, but right now she’s powerless and reliant on me to be her sweet protector.
However, I must admit I also love a completely different personality: confident, assertive, and proud. There’s something about taking down such a person to tiny size and making them powerless. She’s been in charge her whole life, now she must learn to obey. The shift is even greater and makes for a very interesting relationship. Those rare tinies that stay defiant while being smaller than my pinkie also have a special place in my heart (and in my boxers ).

Don’t call me out like that! I feel very close to this description - oblivious to feelings, blissfully unaware of the fear I can cause or sheer dominance I can impose. I love to combine this with a tiny having the first archetype I described. Both have to work over their self-consciousness and that moment is

When it comes to the little ladies, I’m afraid I’m exactly the same. In fact, the chief attraction of keeping a “harem” of SWs is for the variety of personalities. Also, nothing flatters my sense of dominance more than having to resolve disputes between petulant tiny women.
The only personality type that irritates me is utterly submissive and worshipful. Too suspicious. I’d probably regard that as a challenge to find some way to provoke her to protest.
Like Foreverlurk, I really enjoy the journey as a shrunken woman adapts to her new size. Enthusiastic or distraught, I want to see her discover what she really wants and needs, and determine if and how I can provide that. I also want to give her the opportunity to entertain me. They can occasionally come up with the most delightful surprises.
Those that were born tiny (like Borrowers) think they know everything. They also act like I’m the freakish one. I don’t want to break that attitude, but I stay alert for an opportunity to demonstrate that she doesn’t quite know everything.
Even when a SW has finally become acclimated to her size and my presence, I still appreciate it when she retains a modicum of indignation whenever I handle her. I like being reminded that I’m overwhelming.

Well, I think I prefer giants to be mostly gentle, yet a bit playful and liking to tease. But if I got too uncomfortable he’d stop right away, actual cruelty is a turn off for me also I really like the idea of the giant already knowing I have a shrinking kink and he’s just “helping me embrace it”

When it comes to giants, I like a wide range of personality types, but my favorite type is probably the evil (or morally ambiguous) giant who wrestles with his dark side and who occasionally shows glimpses of humanity. This type of giant is surprisingly difficult to find in size content because a lot of content tends to be either completely cruel or gentle. It’s something that I’ve been trying to explore more in my own work.
As for tinies, I also like a wide range. I’m totally into fear play and while I love the overwhelmed, frightened tiny, I also like tinies who are confident and capable. I like the idea of a woman standing up to a giant who can wreck entire cities.

I’ve always liked the idea of a tough businesswoman who comes home and only shows her subby, shrinky side to me. I like the idea of being a tiny’s solace.
I like overly clingy and possessive tinkerbell style tinies who want me all to themselves and get jealous around other women.
I like curious borrower types who are maybe a little too unafraid and treat my giant body almost like an experiment like the sheer curiosity about my size overwhelms them.
I like ditzy, giggly, girly, extra horny tinies whose tininess lets them have a greater sensation than usual and simply want to drown in hedonistic pleasure.
I like kind nurturing tinies who want to take care of me and mother me despite their tiny size.
I like worshipper tinies who see me as a God and believe it’s their life’s goal to please me no matter what I ask for.
I just like tinies!

@BigCuddlyGiant These are all excellent!

I need that little squee when I pick her up unannounced, even if she’s used to it.

I’m sorry but teasing is one of the ways I show love hehe. And teasing about size is unsurprisingly my favourite and something I can actually do IRL for once.

^^ This! That’s about it in a nutshell hehe. I love all the types you listed, too!

Awww that’s so adorable. I love seeing content like that! Nothing like a good character arc between the two.
Personally, my mind tends to gravitate towards the “opposites attract” types of relationships. I love pairing these kinds of giants with an assertive, flirty tiny. She shamelessly comes onto him, he’s completely clueless about it, and finally she gives in and tells him exactly what she wants. Meanwhile the big is like "You want me to do what?!"
I love the idea of being tiny and at a guy’s mercy, but I think I have a small sadistic streak as well. I love giants getting embarrassed, flustered, angry, annoyed, etc.

Does this mean you like to see a giant put SWs in peril?
I think that part of the appeal of Unaware encounters is that it allows an SW to be endangered or humiliated by a giant without having to think of him as a cruel person.

I do find those types of personalities a bit boring, both in sizeplay and other kinks. But like I said, there aren’t any personalities I DISLIKE. If someone is a very talented writer they can definitely make anything work! I would be interested in seeing this type of tiny matched with a giant who has no desire to be worshipped/submitted to.
Actually, this could be an interesting writing exercise- writing something outside of your own preferences. It would challenge you to be creative, and may even bring a fresh perspective to the topic. For example, I’m personally not the biggest vore fan, but I think it would be fun to try to write something that would appeal to those who like it!

“No, I don’t want my feet rubbed. You’re only three inches tall; how much pressure do you think you could apply?”

This was, of course, the entire conceit behind Size Riot.

As a giant imagining a tiny?
Someone who would be happy with it, ultimately, or at least could be happy being kept by me while shrunk and/or being a tiny
It doesn’t have to be, ‘Oh my gosh, I shrunk, this has always been my fantasy!’ (honestly, that always throws me off because it seems so unlikely), but trapping and keeping a tiny woman and having her spend the entire time miserable and afraid is just… not my taste, you know?
Maybe she does like it, just not to some overwhelming degree. Maybe she’s tired of her life, and wants to be spoiled with no responsibilities. Maybe she just comes from bad situation and my decent treatment makes her like me. Maybe she’s so small that her entire life is in that aquarium (preferably with some equally attractive friends), and she doesn’t even see me as a person, almost, as much as a background object/sentient force of nature that gives food sometimes.
Hell, maybe she has a tiny house in the house, instead of a guest room, and we’re room mates or something.

@Olo I didn’t realize it, but it is the same concept as Size Riot! There have been so many fantastic stories to come out of that contest. I think when you’re into a subject matter as niche as this, it’s easy for it to become a bit of an echo chamber. An outsider can really help bring some originality into the mix!
