@littlest-lily said in Depression and Size Kink:

I have a feeling (and it sounds like you do as well) that it might not be the fantasy itself that’s the core issue, so I do hope that once you’re in a better headspace the sizey yearning might not be quite so painful.

Thanks, Lily. That’s exactly what I think. This sizey longing can be (bitter)sweet too, and even be enjoyable, and I’ve lived with it just fine for a long while.

Right now it has been tainted by depression, and exacerbates my feeling of loneliness. I was curious if others have had those feelings as well, to some extent.

I did a bratty SW edit of B.J. from Dr Shrinker. Five minutes of pouting, shouting, and being bold despite the fact that she’s six inches tall.

Say what you want about that show, it was refreshing to see a SW acting like this for a change (not that I don’t like damsels in distress, but variety is the spice of SW)

@littlest-lily For better or worse, I cannot speak from experience.

It’s for the better, trust me. Not that painful, but not pleasant either. It feels stretched and I would compare it to the lingering sensation that can last a few minutes after cumming hard, sometimes.

Unless you happen to also have an urinary infection - then, then it’s fucking hell on Earth. Please don’t ask me how I know this lol. But honestly at first there’s a psychological side too, not gonna lie.

@The-Big-G haha I know but I cannot resist sizey puns and jokes !

@blehb LOL that gif is just perfect

@SmolChlo said in Militsioner:

I came across a new game that’s currently in development called Militsioner!

Very cool concept if they can pull it off. Of course I’d like the role of the guard (hehe) but I can see how this could be designed differently to include asymmetric multiplayer gameplay!

Like, “Escape the Dollhouse”… hide and seek meets survival horror. One player is normal-sized, 1 to 3 are shrunken. Add VR to the mix and that would be insane!

They are trying to pass such a law in Canada, too. I think it depends where the website is physically hosted, and from where you’re trying to access it. But I share you worries about the future of privacy and censorship.

For what it’s worth, I did see size content before the age of 18 (shocking, I know!), I wasn’t traumatized by it and it helped me tremendously on my road to acceptance. Just learning that I wasn’t alone, for one.

@littlest-lily said in Trust:

Why can’t this be reaaallll

WHYYYY

… but seriously your art is the closest thing and captures perfectly the essence of the experience.

@Mrgoblinging7 Well first off when I was young I thought all imaginations were like that? I don’t know, it’s just one of the things you realize growing up that you have, like having a perfect pitch, or being able to hold a beat, or being colour-blind. You think it’s the same for everyone at first.

For sure this has caused me issues… it’s hard to let go when you can revisit moments in your memory, and re-experience them vividly, especially of times when you were happier. Might explain my tendency towards nostalgia, and why I still remember detailed stuff from childhood.

It also means I’m at the mercy of some fiction authors lol. If I really like what I’m reading, I go all in and view those scenes in my head. If it’s something really fucked up, I am NOT okay afterwards. But I still wouldn’t want to be rid of it. I’m just highlighting the cons.

Antidepressants somewhat tinker with hyperphantasia btw (along with a shit load of other things), makes memories and feelings more neutered and colourless. But hey, at least you don’t spend your day crying in a corner so that’s a plus, right?

@miss-lillipants Really liked it too but I’m not a fan of the way the story ends - you can probably guess why - but there are so few SW audio out there, I can’t complain.

A common thing I love about those is the way the SW first presents herself as being able to care for herself, she doesn’t want to be a burden, etc. But when faced with the reality of being so vulnerable they ask for the giant’s protection.

Honestly, a tiny lady saying she feels safe and protected with me… that makes me fucking melt.

@blehb said in What small details really elevate size content for you?:

Typically shrinking could be seen as a negative representation of feeling anxious, or being placed in an intimidating situation. But I love the idea of reversing that trope and the tiny finding a way to overcome not only that situation, but also their typical irrational fears.

Oh I love that idea, it’s just too easy to tie shrinking purely with negative emotions - in a negative light - all the time!

If only I wasn’t struggling with anxiety myself. I think I mentioned before that even from a young age, this fantasy always had a calming effect on me. There’s something about, like @Nyx said, a SW’s “softness and delicateness and quietness” that work just like benzos sometimes.

Having a giant to protect and comfort you also helps with those feelings as well.

And I like to think it can go both ways - not for protection, of course, but a tiny could also help a giant find his inner strength/confidence, and overcome his fears. Which I realize might go against the common trope of an all-powerful, almost infallible giant!

Just something I found, I guess most of you have seen this classic scif-fi comic from 1968 (no we don’t talk about the 2017 movie ) but someone uploaded a really high quality scan of the first album of the series, La Cité des eaux mouvantes, on Archive.org, which features a very nice SW sequence. Basically this mad scientist wants to test his shrinking device on Laureline (and keep her hostage so that Valérian won’t try any heroics):

Really nice… and did I mention the shrinking is PERMANENT? Sadly, the process is interrupted before it can be completed , so not only it’s now possible for her to revert back to normal(boo!), and instead of ending up two inches, she’s about 8 inches tall:

I just love how pissed off she is on Valérian’s shoulder

It’s a line I want to cross but I can’t bring myself to do it.

Same. I suck at this so much. I don’t want to wallow up in self-pity again, but me being a dom cishet male in my 40s brings a whole lot of bonus difficulty to opening up (perceived or real), that some in the “it’s-no-big-deal” crowd might not have to account for.

Or maybe that’s just my excuse ¯_ (ツ)_/¯

I mean, folks don’t tend to post their L’s online, but I’ve had some private conversations with people who “came out” to their partners about their size kink and things went horribly wrong. You don’t really hear about those, but it’s always a possibility.

(Chlo I’m sure you’ll be fine, please don’t mind me)

@SmolChlo said in Tall and Short Make a Match:

Made me wonder if their insinuating that some people bury and ignore their genuine preferences for whatever looks good or is deemed acceptable by society.

This behaviour sounds adjacent to the Halo effect, which associates traits like being fat means you’re lazy, being tall means you’re powerful, being beautiful means you’re a good person.

Consequences of that unconscious tendency? There’s the height wage gap, where tall people make more money on average. There’s the beauty card that let you get away with almost everything. That sort of things might explain why some people prefer to have a taller mate (and, consequently, offspring).

@littlest-lily said in What small details really elevate size content for you?:

@foreverlurk An all powerful giant can be exciting sometimes, but I think it’s much more interesting for him to have flaws and insecurities and vulnerable moments and all that jazz

I realize it’s almost the antithesis of the kink but I like when power shifts back and forth between G and t (only possible if love or at least gentleness is involved in the scenario).

Different kinds of power, of course. She could never have any physical control, but she probably holds more sway over him overall than the casual observer might notice at first.
