What do you enjoy about size stuff?
-
Hi! First of all, I’m letting this post serve as a bit of an introduction. I’m Alex, though feel free to call me Rice (I know, it’s weird for the giant to be the one named after food). I’ve just joined the forum after having interacted for a bit with the wider ‘size community’, especially on Reddit and Discord. Most of these interactions were related to RP (which is something I discovered through size), so that’s going to be the thing I’ll be focusing on, but I think it applies to everything else as well.
Whenever I’ve discussed a plot with a potential partner, we’ve talked about kinks and limits. I do have a few hard limits that I don’t want to include, but when the discussion comes to kinks, I’m always left a bit stumped. My partner replies and says they especially enjoy vore, feet, crushing or whatever else, and then I ask myself—how am I supposed to pick a favorite?
I’ve reached the conclusion that I just enjoy size over everything else. I’m a switch, and I’ve always enjoyed both the giant and tiny perspectives. And while I do have some slight preferences, and my mood somewhat dictates what I’m looking for in a story, through the time I’ve spent roleplaying I found out that I enjoy both being the cruel giant who just thinks of tinies as toys and prey, and the gentle big that is afraid to accidentally hurt his thumb-sized girlfriend.
It’s not just sexually related either, though the great majority of RP plots on Discord and Reddit are very focused on that. I just think size dynamics are really fun to write and read about, and they really help build an incredible amount of depth into a relationship or a scenario. I just think it’s weird that I haven’t met anyone else who thinks like that, and I’m painfully aware that it probably makes me look like a people pleaser when someone asks about my kinks and all I can say is ‘anything to do with size’.
What’s your opinion on this? Is there something specific that you especially enjoy about size stuff, or do you experience it in a more general way?

@ricenoodle honestly I see size as a base that I’m happy to branch off of I also think a dabble in other kinks not many as deep as my love of size. Furry,vore and so on not into feet but not judging others what ever floats your boat in that regard.
-
@The-Big-G Something I’ve found out is that sizing up stuff (or shrinking them) really makes me enjoy them more. For example, I’m not really attracted to feet normally, but feet in size content are nice and something I enjoy.

Size differences just heighten so much about the relationship between characters.
Every time you’re alone in a room with someone, there’s an exchange of trust there. You both know you could do something to each other, even if it is buried under the surface, especially as that trust builds. Sure, there are definitely differences between different people and how much others ‘outclass’ each other based on physical capabilities, and subsequently, if they have tools to defend themselves. But we’re all still trusting (or not trusting) each other to some level.
When one character vastly outsize another, that changes. The giant doesn’t have to trust the tiny in the same respect. There’s not much the tiny can do to physically harm the giant. Why would the tiny stick around knowing the giant could harm them by some accident? How that trust is achieved and maintained (or just stolen, point blank) is so fascinating to me. There’s extra levels of complexity to address with such blatant power imbalances. Does one lean into it? Do they try to avoid it? Does the avoidance lead to accidents?
Ultimately, to me, size differences lend themselves to beautiful character driven interactions because trust has to be earned (or taken) on a much more extreme scale.

I have to say the aspect I love the most is shrinking - the actual process itself has always been as enjoyable to me as the aftermath. Seeing girls shrink in cartoons as a child was one of my first awakening experiences to the fantasy. I would replay in my mind the scenes, that’s why even to this day I love shrinking to be a rather slow, gradual thing.
I’m hopeless in the number of times I’ve imagined using shrink rays on unsuspecting victims…
Primary school teacher? SHRINK.
Girl I had a crush on in 8th grade? ZAP.
Woman who intimidates me? FIRE.
Cute co-worker? DOWN SHE GOES.Thank god they couldn’t read my mind.
You seem to have had some pretty good experiences in RP, which I can’t really relate to. Maybe I haven’t been lucky, or probably I just suck at RP? I realized I simply can’t play the cruel giant, that’s not me. I can be playful, teasing, a bit rough or somewhat blissfully unaware of the fear I can cause, sure. But I love tinies too much to hurt them. Yeah I know the whole noncon shrinking is borderline and contradicts what I just said lol
Nowadays I’d much rather indulge in well-written fiction - the community has sooo many talented people.

Get to know a woman well enough and she won’t have to tell you she wants you to take her home in your pocket; you’ll just know.

@wildxpixie I hadn’t really thought about trust! Just goes to show the extra layers of complexity that mixed-size relationships have
The idea of earning the tiny’s trust is so fun, and it actually helps with something that I think tends to be a narrative obstacle, which is the fact that the giant ends up being the one in control. Going back to RP, I’ve had times where I felt like I was the only one moving the plot forward, being the big one. It’s really a beautiful compromise! -
@foreverlurk The process of shrinking isn’t usually the highlight for me, though it’s a very nice part of the fantasy, of course. To be honest, one of the things I enjoy the most about it is how everyone seems to relate to it in a different way! It isn’t something that gets stale, that’s for sure.
For RP… it’s a mixed bag. My experience on Reddit hasn’t been really good. I’ve found a few good partners, but there’s definitely a lot of ghosting (I’ve had people stop replying suddenly, after several weeks of activity…) and I think there’s a lot of one-liners and really short form RPs, which isn’t really what I’m interested in. Same for Discord, but it tends to be a little better, at least the servers I’ve visited.
I imagine it also helps that I rarely posted plots of my own, I’m much more comfortable replying to someone else’s so I can have an idea of what it’s going to be like.

@ricenoodle I enjoy learning what everyone likes too, It’s been such an eye opener. Crazy how much variety the size fetish has spawned! Made me discover so many things about myself, even if outside of my comfort zone.
I have to say that, even more than the shrinking itself, it’s the anticipation of the shrinking that gets me really going. I like a slow buildup leading to that moment. Even better are the rare times I truly wasn’t expecting any size change, only to get hit out of nowhere with my kink lol
I’m ashamed to say I sound like the bad Redditors RPers you describe. Sometimes I just get too tired, English isn’t my mother’s tongue and requires a mental overhead to translate and express myself properly. Or it’s a compatibility issue, I get self-conscious, etc. I just suck sometimes.
-
For me personally I always get a little bored when size content focuses completely on one thing. I definitely like variety in stories I read, as long as it stays within my limits.
-
@foreverlurk I’m not a native English speaker either! I don’t think you sound like a bad RPer, though. Just from the detail of your replies I can see there’s thought and interest in a discussion, which is… more than I can say about a few people, haha
Besides that and the ghosting part, I think everything else is mostly a preference and a matter of compatibility from my side. I prefer writing a fair bit and being hit with a quick one-liner after sending two or three detailed paragraphs is tiresome (or conversely, receiving too much text, though I’ve only had that happen once). But I know there’s people who enjoy the shorter RPs, and definitely a lot of people who just enjoy chatting about different scenarios and size thoughts but don’t want to RP, and that’s perfectly okay, even if it’s usually not my thing!
The struggle to translate myself is real, I can totally relate to that. Though if it’s any consolation coming from another non-native, I wouldn’t have thought English wasn’t your first language

Power, control, domination of the weak. A lot of my fetishes revolve around that, actually, not just size stuff.
-
@ricenoodle size makes everything else bette, to me. But I definitely have my own strong preferences within that.
When talking about just any story about anything, any genre, yeah, size makes it all way more fascinating to me. No matter what the original author has a preference for.
When talking about a story that I’m reading because I’m horny, that’s when the specific kinks come into play.
-
I like girls who are so clingy and needy for affection and care that they want to be surrounded, smothered, and swallowed up by it. Someone who is such a bone deep natural submissive that she literally wants to be a dress up doll or an obedient pet. Sizeplay is just the ultimate expression of that level of trust and literal outsized need.

@ricenoodle Thanks for understanding the struggle of realtime translation during RP.
But now I’m curious, what is your native language? Mine is French, btw.I’ve been guilty of ghosting, but to be fair I’ve been ghosted FAR more often than not. I’m more into an RP session if I’m in control, and the best ones I’ve had was when I was stealing someone else’s OC from a story I liked hehe. It’s kinda like taking a pre-made character in Dungeons and Dragons and playing his part. Works very well if you align with said character.
Oh and welcome to DD!
