It seems to me that the basic error here is assuming that one’s sexual desires somehow reflect on one’s social values, particularly if one has a hidden or obscure kink.

I consider myself lucky to have avoided experiencing this kind of shaming that appears pretty common from M/f and SW fans. It wasn’t until when I was older that I realised that the fantasy could be (mis)interpreted as misogynistic. There is undoubtedly misogynistic material and fans out there, but I don’t think the fantasy itself is inherently so (both sexual and non-sexual content).

I think people grossly misunderstand by essentialising it to “big = dominant, small = submissive” and conveniently omit other elements like agency (a character’s or the fan’s), subject portrayal, audience, perspectives, themes, etc. It’s the same with F/m and GTS which can also get confused: I also think it is not inherently misogynistic and you would think exemplifies a fantasy where women can feel empowered. In reality, that is overwhelmingly not the case within the fandom and its content (even mainstream content tends to leans towards the male gaze) - consider, e.g. the paradox of power.

It’s the epitome of misogyny to dictate what a woman should/shouldn’t like.

☝ simply put.

@TakoAlice8 You are so so kind, thank you for those lovely words ❤

I’m also not sure if this helps… But another thing that I’m realizing has helped me is that I have a friend who is on the SM side - he thinks SW are cute but would much rather be tiny himself. And he is JUST as bothered by judgy GTS fans as we are and also thinks there should be more variety in content. It helps me to hear that kind of thing from him and know that the toxicity comes from a very loud minority.

@Peep Ah well, I mean he existence of multiple size differences at once; e.g. halflings, humans, and towering giants all at once

In my stories, almost all of my main characters have elements of me. I can’t help but make them somewhat similar.

Some of them have a lot in common. But others just have tiny little opinions or annoyances that I share.

I have one story about a fast food worker who shrinks an obnoxious customer. The worker’s a cis man, a second generation immigrant, and he’s vindictive in ways that I’m not.

But, he shares a complete impatience with rude customers that I have.

I have another story about a woman who works in a media company that’s attacked by a giant business owner. She’s very similar to me, if I had just gone into media, the field I wanted to go into. (But I ended up stumbling into another field.)
The building she’s in is based on the building I worked in for a long time. And her CEO is based on my company’s CEO. That story largely came from years of fantasizing while looking out over the cityscape from a high story.

My story characters always have a mental separation from me, though. I never actually put myself in a story or a roleplay. It’s too intimate to do that with The Internet. That’s what my pen and paper journal is for.

I’m a switch, but I still get pretty pissed off when people want me to be big for them while I’m feeling small (and vice versa).

@i-am-insane I hope you know that if you think your on the ace spectrum, you don’t have to have a label for your asexuality or your sexuality in general. Sexuality is complicated.

I do also crave the more wholesome end of size scenarios. I also really like it in M/f scenarios where the bigger person is intimidating but not cruel. I also really like when the bigger person teases in M/f.

I am very glad the SW community has been welcoming towards you. What I have heard from other people’s experiences, the GTS community can be a bit toxic at times but not all the time.

@Mrgoblinging7 Awww I love this artist, her stuff is so wholesome 🥰

Day 1: As soon as Santiago captured the tiny Hailey, he was sure to grab all of her stuff to head home together and relax. He was completely fascinated of her little figure considering she’s truly a doll. Of course she tried to resist, she tried to insult, to bargain, nothing worked. She was truly helpless in his grip, as a tiny damsel in distress trapped in King Kong’s grasp, immobile as his powerful fingers poke, caress and squeeze her tiny, firm breasts as much as he wants. She was still shocked, not even thinking if he’s gonna keep her like that.

Hailey’s Journal: This must be a nightmare, but I cannot find a way to wake up. I’ve been trying to figure out what happened, but as I see things this man shrunk me and took me to his place to violate me. I’m exhausted but no matter how much I try to defend myself, I’m too weak compared to him. He seems totally obsessed with my breasts, forcing me to moan when he squeezes them, of course it’s painful but that’s still a very sensitive area for me. I really need to wake up!

That’s what I’m talkin’ about.
