As many of you know, I’m interested in military themes too, because questions of bodily autonomy there interest me a lot. Governments and institutions experimenting on bodies isn’t just a ripe metaphor, it’s a reality. And to me it’s a way more powerful metaphor than just “shrink ray go zap”. Military institutions are also very interesting ways to explore the symbols and ethics of power, danger, and hierarchy. To me, it all goes quite hand-in-hand with size difference.

As I get older, too, the more I realize that my kinks are best enjoyed in narrative form, building toward something, whether that “something” is a well-crafted scene or a friendship or something else, rather than just it being a mindless escape. With IRL kink - whenever I get back into it - I want to explore this a lot more too.

To me, “being big” is about effortless and unwavering confidence - big dick energy, or literally being “the bigger person” - not about power. Because if you have confidence in yourself, no matter where you are and what you’re doing, you have complete power over yourself, which is something that can’t be taken from you by anyone or anything. It is the ultimate “alpha” move. Any dumb idiot can get mad, anyone can hurt and lash out and abuse, especially a stranger or someone smaller. But it takes a metaphorical giant to not lose themselves to a petty situation. A metaphorical giant isn’t bothered by the little people and the little problems around them: they have the power to remain detached, to walk away. I’ve always been more interested in the stories of giants and the people brave enough to accept and love them rather than the stories of shrinkers for that reason.

It’s exciting to me because that’s a real thing, that’s not something that I can only indulge in secret on the weekends, it’s something to bring with me into my actual lived life. It’s something to bring into real sex with real people. It’s a real way to be a dominant and build relationships. The fetishy stuff is great fun, don’t get me wrong, but the particulars of this or that exact way of stomping on a city or doing cockvore come second, they’re the window dressing to the core of the kink for me, which will always be that question of “how does one wield power in this fucked up world?”

(My first comment on this post was not related to the topic which I apologize. I was new here and that was my very first comment on this site.)
Seeing a giant gives me this really unique feeling, it’s like ecstasy mixed with excitement, doom, and arousal. The intimidating presence of him makes me excited. This feeling is only with male giants. I used to be into female giants, they didn’t give the same feeling, but I did find them interesting. I drifted away from them because male giants give me a better feeling to me. That is why I crave size content of male giants so much. I do like gentle, gentle does give me a comforting feeling, but I also like when the giant is intimidating, makes it more exciting.

Although I am not either dominant or submissive despite being tiny in the size community, I did felt ashamed with being a submissive. It didn’t help that when I was researching about my fetish, I couldn’t find any articles or videos on women with macrophilia.

I understand this feeling, like guilt in feeling good about being submissive, weak and powerless while living in an already misogynistic society. And in line with what’s been said already, you are not alone and there is no shame in liking feeling that way - it is both a deeply personal feeling and one that doesn’t define who you are and how you value yourself or others.

Personally, I have been treated like crap for being a woman and, with age, have unlearned a lot of internalised misogyny and learned my worth in my private and working life. There’s still a lot of work I need to do to not take people’s shit, but what I know that is NOT part of that is undoing my predilection for being dominated by a hunky kaiju-sized man who stomps through the streets; crush me, my house and the house next door; sit on me, keep me in his underwear all day, roll me around in his mouth; gently or violently - whatever it is that makes me or other women in particular feel small and helpless. Even in RL, I like to be dominated by my partner. But at the end of the day, I want women, femmes and non-binary friends to feel safer and be treated better by our families, friends, co-workers and society.

All of them explained men having the fetish. A lot of them explained that women don’t have the fetish as much as men because of society seeing women as less dominant and men as big and powerful.

I wonder whether representative numbers or stats exist to back this. There are plenty of theories with regards to the lack of women in this fetish (and many other fetishes with power dynamics, I’m sure), including that women are simply not as vocal and, therefore, present. Which, of course, doesn’t mean they don’t exist as macro/microphiliacs, but (or maybe as a result), their views are also not sought after - and less so for asexual, femme, non-binary peeps, etc. There are a few interviews that I’m aware of, but they often centre around GTS content and the men who consume their material. Part of it is curiosity, but the other part is out of concern because, as you shared yourself, it can feed into misunderstandings of ourselves.

Anyway, from a sub, I hope you are able to find some solace in our little forum please keep sharing and asking questions.

Acceptance, from ourselves and the persons we trust will help us understand there’s nothing wrong or abnormal with liking this so much, it’s something to enjoy which actually enrich our lives.

I’m glad you found us.

I’m more on the GT end then the SW end, I’ve found, and it’s for the simple reason that I, personally, want more power, rather than I want to take away other’s power. Even as a child, before any of this really kicked in, I wanted to be a dragon because dragons are a symbol of power: big, strong, unstoppable, inspiring both fear and awe.

On a fundamental level, I’ve found, a SW story is about dehumanizing a woman to some degree, even if those around them are gentle and kind and treat them like people, because they simply can’t do the things considered normal for a person to do. The crueler stories simply take that to the logical extremes: they are lesser, they aren’t human, they’re pets, toys, etc, and therefore they don’t deserve those rights.

A giant story, on the other hand, is about empowering a man to be more than a man. On the logistic end, there can be conflicts with how daily life things aren’t there, or how fragile the world is, but even then that’s a dynamic/metaphor all it’s own, about how they surpass the works of humanity, and thus humanity itself, which is of course something that can be played with as its own concept with giants as rulers or gods.

There’s this odd juxtaposition on the fact that I want the ability to do things to people, including horrible things at times, but at the same time having no real desire to use said things outside of fantasizing, which is probably why my stories tend back to the SW end: it’s easier to be kind when your less likely to do damage to everyone around with your existence. There’s probably something to say about the fact I want that power for the freedom of it, rather than the use of it.

Fantasizing about being cruel has its place, of course. From vore and the brutal primal nature of it, the implicit triumph and taking involved with eating something, to the casual domination of stepping on things, people, places simply because you can, or even out of the lack of desire to even avoid them. To reduce a living thing in merely what you want her to be, to destroy whatever parts of her personality you don’t like until her world is you, and she can’t imagine a life not being your possession.

There’s something especially tantalizing about betrayal, perhaps because I loathe it on a fundamental level: the act of making your victim lower her guard, maybe making her think you’re her friend, maybe making her a promise that you’ll protect her, spare her, help her, if she just does this one thing… only to break that agreement when the time comes. And at that moment, her emotions: the heartbreak, the disbelief, the hurt, the despair, that instant when the hope dies is… intoxicating.

But meeting some of you at the last three live Size Cons was so great. It meant a lot to me to see in person how people reacted to my stories and hear about what they liked. I also shared with someone who (I think) was there for their first Size Con how much I loved his art. I think he got the same feelings I did when someone told me that.

Honestly I’m a writing simp, hearing from people interested in my stories really gets my imagination pumping out ideas.

Also, reluctantly, I should mention my coffee link below. But, really, yeah comments.

I think I like the unnatural control of the Big/small dynamic. A situation that even in a mutual respect situation the larger will still have more control. Only in very limited situations would the small would have control. A Shrunken woman in a man’s fist is at his mercy. His to do with as he likes. I think that it has a lot to do with the fact I’ve never had much control in my life. That the idea of being a titan before someone is appealing.

Now I’m not a dom in real life. I’m uncomfortable being in charge of anything. I too am an equilest. Both people in a relationship have to be at the same level. I think that’s why I like the term partner over Boy/girlfriend/Wife/husband.

Now that doesn’t mean all my writings are big man uses little woman. But, yeah, most are at some level. I do include F/f, but that’s not really an interest of mine. Heck, I have many scenes of the tiny enjoying the giant’s attentions. But I think that’s from my delight at pleasuring a woman.

Hope that makes sense?

As for aspects I enjoy/use:

Hand play: I like it when a guy strokes a shrunken woman. Admires them as the lovely little being they are. Some of the more enjoyable scenes I’ve written are of a giant almost massaging the tiny woman’s naked form.

Mouthplay: Orally exploring the tiny woman’s body. Suckling their legs (Funny enough, I’m not a feet guy), breasts, and so on. Sexually licking the tiny woman. Lapping along her womanhood. Using the texture and mass of a giant tongue to stimulate her into a satisfied stupor.

Cock play: Having the tiny woman work their form along the manhood. Stroking with their legs while the rub their busts into the sensitive skin. Or with more selfish man, wrapping the helpless tiny woman around their hardened shaft and stroking the tiny body along as they want.

I’m sure there are more, just can’t think of more. Man, I sound like a monster don’t I?

Now for other things. I understand vore. The power of it. The containment of it for some. But, I too see it as an end. And therefore wasteful. I’ve used it and will use it in stories. And honestly, at times, have been aroused at the idea. But mostly, its to remove unwanted tiny women from the wanted tiny women.

Footplay, no. But I just don’t like feet. I’m the same with feces. Strangely I do use urinating on tinies, but it’s to degrade/lessen the target more then any sexual desire. Make them seem even less then human in the character’s mind.

Insertion: Only in F/f style scenes. And usually non-fatal. Entrapment but not deadly crushing mostly. Like the F is being intensely stimulated by the f squirming inside their pussy.

Well, I should stop rambling. I hope I haven’t offended anyone. This is an opinion request so no one is wrong. Just different likes.
Questions?
