@blehb Since you brought aesthetics into it: cut or uncut?

[blehb]

@Olo Hmmm, no particular preference tbh. I think uncut plays better into size stuff though.

Hmm. Unless the equivalent is actually huge, bulging muscles or something? Big arms broad shoulders?

Not necessarily. This parallels discussions around superhero bodies and male power fantasies: portrayals of muscular men often don’t aim to appeal to women so much as to other men. But of course, it’s more nuanced than “men like muscles, women don’t”. I think because a lot of social conditioning around sex centres men and male pleasure so heavily, you may be hard pressed to find a direct equivalent to a lot of fantasy tropes (often leading to false equivalencies) without a lot of de-centering first. It’s complicated and I appreciate the effort you’re putting in to understand!

Personally, I love my giants to be broad-shouldered and sculpted like a statue, but it’s not necessary. I’d like for him to be attractive, but the specifics of his looks comes secondary to his personality, actions, intentions and the overall story. It’s a feature, not the main event. As @littlest-lily says,

the kink is around the fact that he’s much, much bigger. And then at that point I care more about what he does than what he looks like.

I like for the giant to be attractive (just according to my IRL tastes), but the kink is around the fact that he’s much, much bigger. And then at that point I care more about what he does than what he looks like.

Hmm. So what I’m getting here is that while good looks are desired, they’re secondary to the overall package of overwhelming size/compatible personality, is that it?

And there’s no… overemphasized feature, just… a normal, attractive man, blown up to point where he can step on people/cars/cities.

@i-am-insane (or just a normal attractive man… and we’re the ones who are small 🤭) But yeah, while I hesitate to represent all female SW fans, I at least feel like this is a pretty accurate general trend.

I do appreciate the discourse, by the way. So often when I see conversations around “what women like” I’ve seen it turn into men arguing about what they think, while ironically ignoring the women who try to participate lol

@littlest-lily
Well, I’m trying to understand, after all; it’s really interesting to me, because in most the ‘GTS Flip’ scenarios I’ve done/proposed, it’s been liked, by women as well as men, but for this… there’s definitely a type of GTS guys seem to like, yet there’s no real equivalent.

So I guess that men like the visual as much, if not more, than the actual scenario (AKA ‘I AM A GIANTESS AND I SQUISH PEOPLE BECAUSE I’M BIG!!!’), while for women it’s the scenario more than the visual.

That… actually works out fine for me, since I prefer a story heavy focus on those blue moons when I write, but it’s good to know.

I’d cavil at this, too, but this isn’t the venue for a discussion about F/m.
