How does the thought of being the opposite of your preferred size make you feel?

[littlest-lily]

Oh man… the idea of NOT being the smallest person in the room is honestly the biggest turn off for me. It makes me soooo incredibly uncomfortable. Part of it is just not wanting to be that center of attention, and there’s the thought too of any of my physical flaws being magnified to someone else. I hate it so much. Even irl I’m pretty short and I like it that way.

Oddly, though, the idea of giantess doesn’t make me nearly as uncomfortable. I’d still much rather be in the presence of a giant man (or preferably being tiny around a normal sized man), but if the woman is the larger one then I just self insert into the role of the tiny person she’s with, even if it’s a tiny man. I wouldn’t mind having some giant lady friends, in a platonic way, that actually sounds really sweet to me

I prefer the role of the small one and will relate more with tinies in shrinking stories, but don’t find any appeal in being shrunk myself and prefer to be human sized. Like @Nyx, I would rather interactions with a literal giant man. I don’t like being in the big position, whether as a human with a tiny, or a literal giant with a human.

Tbh I have a bit of a complicated relationship with GTS content. Whilst I appreciate (and have appreciated) the appeal of being a giantesses, I also don’t like being in the spotlight, being a public subject, the “main event”, if you will, only magnified. Also, I daresay and sadly, my experiences relating to GTS content (whether in private or with others) have likely contributed to my feeling extra uncomfortable and being put off by a lot of it - in saying that, I am much more tolerant and open-minded than I was before, particularly with cute, fluffy GTS stuff.

I think it comes down to that I don’t seek the empowerment, strength or role that a giantess may be put into and which others might find appealing; whereas being the small/tiny presents its own challenges as well as opportunities to demonstrate those themes and qualities. But the simplest answer being that I just don’t like it, like on a physical level: I’m 5’3" (160cm) in RL and if I’m put in a position where I’m the tallest one in the room, it makes me very uncomfortable!

I’ve found that most people respect this, but occasionally, someone would try to tease me by telling me that they’d shrink me.

Boundaries are lost on some people

@littlest-lily Do like being next to an SW or a tiny the same size as you?

[littlest-lily]

@TakoAlice8 Yeah, that’s fine! I don’t mind people being “normal” sized to me in fantasy any more than I do in real life. Although I’m not particularly keen on being part of a tiny harem or anything… but that’s just because I’m selfish and want my giant all to myself I do like multisize scenarios, multiple tiny people of various sizes interacting. But if I’m self-inserting into that I would always want to be the smallest one heh.

How about you?

[TakoAlice8]

@littlest-lily Yeah, I like being with someone who is “normal” sized to me, especially of they are female. I do kind of like the idea of being in a tiny harem as long as all the other tinies are all female. I personally am not a fan of being in a scenario where there are people of multiple sizes. I only like those scenarios where like you, I am the smallest, and the people bigger than me are are male.

I can be a bit of a size switch myself (though more tiny leaning), but for me the difference tends to be in how I view shrinking versus growing. The idea of being shrunk sounds terrifying, and even as a tiny, I don’t ever fantasize about being shrunk. But I can find the idea of being already smaller (like a pixie or borrower) appealing and fun since there’s an element of having made it so far, ‘I’ know how to deal with the world and maybe just dealing with humans is novel, making that the point of focus, and dealing with cultural differences.

Where as growing does sound exhilarating. The outcome of being a spectacle and having the world after you, not really, but the Alice in Wonderland effect is such a fun spin on things. So I think its fun for the quick novelty, but not necessarily the long term, for me personally.

[Technomage]

Oh that’s a great question! As I usually mention, for me M/f is a very strong erotic fantasy. When I picture myself in the opposite scenario, it tends to change the focus to a wonderous or adventurous feeling.

I’ve visited theme parks in which that is a theme, as well as art expositions, and as a videogame player I’ve found myself in that situation lots of times (Grounded is the most recent example I can think of).

So for me, well I just won’t get turned on and that’s all.

[TakoAlice8]

@miss-lillipants I relate to you a bit that your relationship with GTS content has made you feel more uncomfortable about the thought of being a giantess. Although I don’t like the thought of being the bigger one in general, the way the toxic part of the GTS community has acted has made me put of GTS content. I don’t dislike giantesses in general, but I do dislike the way some of their users act towards people who don’t like GTS also the lack of non GTS content in the size community.

For some reason there is this group of people in that community that assumes all women want to be giantesses. It’s really annoying because it’s very disrespectful and invalidating of people not into GTS. I’d Imagen how they’d react if I told them that I think all men wanted to be giants(I don’t actually think this way), they’d know how I feel.

I hope I am not repeating myself too much. I hope you and everyone knows that they are loved and perfectly valid.

[Giganto82]

I like to be giant and tiny equally tbh. I enjoy SW, giantess , being small or giant, also couples like MF/f. I guess I like every size woman and being every size.

[TakoAlice8]

@Giganto82 It’s nice that you have lots of size diversity in your tastes.

[TakoAlice8]

@Nyx Just curious, you said you don’t like being shrunk but do you dislike being around huge furniture. Such as not being shrunk, but being in the house of a giant?

[FairyFanatic]

I’d be down for going on tiny-scale adventures with a tiny woman, it doesn’t bother me too much though I do still prefer to be regular sized. The idea of being actually giant though I’m not that keen on, just doesn’t work for me, seems too much trouble and like I’d be missing too much detail. I can personally roll with the idea of 3-6 meters but too much difference and I lose interest, although my ratio for SW is about 1:10-1:6.

I wouldn’t mind being in the house of a giant (after all, giants need to live somewhere too). I’m more uneasy with the idea of being at the mercy of a gigantic world, where things like cats or insects could hurt me.

[MegaBear]

I would hate to be shrunken or tiny sized, especially if it involved a woman getting larger than me. Absolutely nothing against giant women and the people who enjoy that fantasy (who are everywhere in the size community haha), but while I love looming over both genders, the thought of being tiny to anyone else is just such a massive turn-off.

I want the power that size gives, I don’t want to be de-powered.

[AnnDViant]

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).
