Giant Men > Shrunken Women
-
I realize I tend to lean toward the idea of giant men in cities causing destruction and humiliation more than the single shrunken woman fantasy. There seems to be less content about that that focuses on women tinies. Anyone else?
-
I have seen many polls made on various social media platforms over the years, and the results are always the same in terms of popularity.
Basically, there are way more tinies than bigs (ie. more subs than doms), and way more men than women overall. So SM is by far the most popular, GTS is next (whether m/F or f/F), then SW followed by giant men.
If you drill down into the data, SW interacting with normal sized men is more popular than giant men with tiny ladies. City destruction is yet another sub-niche, after all that.
I feel your pain as M/f is already rarer and my own niche is micro, which is way less popular than the other more traditional sizes for SW. Oh, I made a few renders with city destruction btw, if giant paladins are your thing hehe.

@annaconda I agree that true giant men are rare in both Size imagery and stories. Almost all of the giant man images I post here were originally intended for M/m viewers. Kinds ironic since King Kong is so popular and evocative.
-
@annaconda I enjoy both growth and shrinking scenarios, but if I have to choose, I prefer growth scenarios. I noticed a long time ago that there isn’t a lot of M/f content involving giant men towering over everyone, which is disappointing.
-
@Nyx What I’m gathering from all these responses is that someone (more talented than I am) needs to get on making more content
-
@foreverlurk I’ve had the impression giant men are more popular than SW because gay men also want their guys big.
-
@LuvShrunkenGirls You’re right, my bias is probably because I don’t actively participate in the M/m community (I’m straight), so if you were to do a full breakdown by gender/sexual orientation, you’d probably see that M/m is more popular than M/f.
My original comment was in the context that OP was lamenting the lack of giant men compared to shrunken women. So my angle was more “giant men + normal size women” vs “normal sized men vs shrunken/tiny women”.
Same (relative) size difference, but different scenarios.
-
@annaconda Definitely! And I think when it comes to that, a first step can be either making your own content or getting it commissioned. I’ve done both for myself and it’s nice to have the results we want.
That said, I love that you’re into Giants and I did make one picture where I’m peering out over a mountain top, it can be fun as long as the comparison to a tiny woman is always there :3

@foreverlurk In the past I tried writing M/f stories that were giant men with normal sized ladies. Woman lost in the woods found by a giant, woman through a portal into a world of giants, giant aliens in spaaace…
Even though these scenarios and others are narratively rich, as a straight guy it is hard for me to put the camera “on the giant” so to speak. I like being a giant, but as soon as you write a story about a giant in the woods finding a lost normal sized woman (from the giant’s POV), it feels like an SW story with additional steps.
It isn’t really even a kink thing (liking something and not liking something else) it is just how to write the actual prose (or how to make the actual pictures from a truly giant point of view). I also know that some people just love the power fantasy of busting up a building or city, but I’ve never even attempted to write something like that.
This is probably on the edge of polite conversation, but when I’ve chatted (this was a problem more in the old days as people are more careful now) … I found the people who told me they liked giant stuff were actually gay (trans was super rare back then) and would “surprise penis” … maybe they were just trolls, but respecting people’s sexuality even us boring straight guys (is it boring to be into shrunken women?) would be nice.

nah I still think we’re pretty nieche generally speaking. As much as I don’t prefer it most of the time, I do get the desire to lean more into a relationship aspects thereof though if that’s what you meant.

Honestly, I get the vibe giants are more common because a giant guy is a rare but still existent movie monster.
It puts the concept into people’s minds. Meanwhile, SWs have been phased out, if anything, probably because some people think it’s offensive to women and a larger portion are afraid people will think it’s offensive to women.
