What is your earliest memory of having this fetish?

The most I ever dared do was to slip some Size into our D&D campaigns. I was very sparing lest they figure it out. Perhaps three times over twenty years or so.
I was a teen when I played D&D regularly, and aware of the sexual side of size things.Too uncomfortable for me to have shrinking in our sessions, I think. A shame because I do remember a couple of Forgotten Realms campaigns using size reduction creatively, like this one alchemist having to treat a sick girl with an ultra rare onguent, having only has a small dose, so he shrinks her to six inches tall - problem solved! Well, until a Zin / snake-spirit decides to capture her while she’s tiny. It’s from the “The Talking Tent”, in the Al-Qadim’s setting. :

In the same setting, there are ruins of a city where every citizen were shrunk out of their armor/clothes to the size of insects :
- “To cease hostilities, aid from a Djinni was sought out of desperation by the humans. The djinni took their plea quite literally, shrinking every citizen of Vahtov to the size of insects. Since no one was now able to lift their weapons, all lost the taste for war. One week later the citizens were consumed by a flock of ravens from the Pit of the Ghuls. Only a small band escaped by hiding in the wilderness. These survivors set aside their differences and founded a new city deep within a crack in the ground. This secret city was rumored to still exist, filled with the miniscule descendants, none of them larger than a man’s thumb.”

We also played Animorphs (I can’t remember how popular it was, but it was a book series where the kids get the ability to turn into animals)
Magic School Bus, and Animorphs, I knew about those but I was older by then, still I can clearly see how those were triggers for imagination games.
Except this guy was an asshole and honestly a cruel giant but my third grade self didn’t know any better and I guess I was desperate lol).
LOL!
And I like your subtle system to “detect” which friends were receptive, very clever. The things we…

@foreverlurk oh my, another 1976 King Kong macro origin… Haha jk. I LOVE reading the similarities in everyone’s story, it shows just how connected all of us are!
You climbing 10 ft into a tree to reenact that scene with your neighbor friend is adorable and so creative. Did you guys ever try to recreate any other shrunken scenarios?I didn’t get to play any shrinking games with my friends, I remember feeling pretty shy/embarrassed about wanting to be tiny so I did my best to hide it.
If we were watching something and suddenly a character shrunk or if there was some kind of interaction with a giant my face would turn bright red, I’d sweat a little too… then I would quickly look around the room to see who was reading my macro thoughts
Now I’m much more (if not painfully) vocal about my fetish -

No, it was really a spur of the moment thing, we weren’t even that close. Its such a strong memory and I had never shared it with anyone, I though I’d take that little moment of childhood bliss to my grave.

Argh, same! Like I said, cartoons were my primary source of SW when I was young, and almost every series had a shrinking episode. I felt, and still feel a non negligible amount of shame about this fetish (working on it!), so the few times it happened were really embarrassing.
So, you know that Captain Planet episode where the russian girl shrank out of her clothes? With the handheld at the end? Yeah, well the first time I ever watched that was at a birthday party. With like 10 other kids. From my school.
Kill. Me. Now.

…I always loved the book where the boy finally was the one to grow in Monster Blood. It was also, ironically, introduction to my least favorite ending to that kind of thing: he shrunk at the end. God I hated that. Couldn’t he just have started growing again like everything else always did? -
I also remember the Give Yourself Goosebumps with the Purple Peanut Butter and Growing Cake

@foreverlurk with 10 other kids from your school?! And it was your first time seeing the episode
I can imagine your internal struggle in that moment.I would of been like “heyyyyy so like totally weird episode
let’s open gifts and eat more cake NOW” -

the other times, it was just my sister and I watching cartoons, but I’m 90% sure she knows about my fetish. I mean, between that, the “shrinking games” I always wanted to play, and her Barbies mysteriously making their way into my room… she must have connected the dots!

I really wish I knew about How I Got My Shrunken Head episode on the Goosebumps show, mostly the ending. I didn’t see it until a few years later, I did the 3 parter with the kinda shrinking?

@TheReducer where it all started for me is when I watched land of the giants it immediately turned me on seeing tiny Valerie

Between 5 and 10 years old. I Dream Of Jeanie and lBewitched were my two biggest influences.
Also, the Tim Conway shrinking scene in The Worlds Greatest Athlete is a significant trigger.

I was very young when I saw King Kong '33 on tv, but it stirred something in me. Maybe not so much the size thing, but how important the pretty lady was and how everyone was trying to save her. And of course how misunderstood Kong was, who was never intending to hurt her. From then on in later years, re-runs of LOTG was my main influence, then came the internet and here I am… Living the part thanks to Photoshop. Ps. Thanks @Olo Thanks @frollo
