@blehb said in What celebrities would you want to see more of in sizekink content?:

All this talk about Henry Cavill, though. With him working on the Warhammer 40k series we might have plenty of size content to look forward to. A lot of the more powerful characters in that series can range from 8-15 feet tall. I know characters can manipulate their size to be hundreds of feet tall as well. Very exciting!

By the Throne, I didn’t know there were other WH40K fans here. Praise be to the Omnissiah, praise the Machine-God!

@skysayl Right?! They don’t know the pain of being geo blocked. Maybe we should get someone in the US to stream it for us over Discord or something, and have a watch party!

@skysayl that’s the fun part, if he sees she’s about to win, just pick her up, disorient her and drop her somewhere else in the maze.

Truth is, the game was rigged from the start.

@blehb I saw Arrietty as a grown ass 20-something and it blew my mind. I’m such a sucker for impossible or forbidden love stories. I’m never fully comfortable watching sizey stuff with other people, even to this day.

What’s a “mobility aid size self check area”? Like, can I just stand there and offer free hand rides to tinies or what?!

Holy crap there’s something huge back there (not talking about the giant himself, but err…)

That being said IRL naturists are usually the chillest, most respectful people I’ve met. That guy is breaking about all the “laws” of nude beaches lol.

@blehb said in Watching Others Watch Size:

I think Minami-kun works so well because the goal is to get Chiyomi back to her normal size, so general audiences are rooting for their relationship knowing that.

Of course, I was rooting for her to remain tiny. That’s why I love the 2004 version were she stays small but they are together and well at the end.

@blehb said in Watching Others Watch Size:

I’ve said this before on here, but the very few people I have mentioned this to described it as “adorable”.

It’s funny because the 3D artist I commissioned recently didn’t know about the size kink at all (to my surprise, I must say - based on her portfolio I thought otherwise). I had to explain the basics and her reaction was similar - it’s “cute”. Umm, I left out some details, of course.

I’m always down for a sizey chat with normies

Haha you’re just built differently, Chlo. I wish I had just half your confidence when striking up conversation: “Hey ladies, so… wanna shrink to three inches tall tonight?”

@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.

@skysayl said in I found a crumb of M/f in a manga:

There was even a macrophile they interviewed who imagined herself as a tiny mouse to hide from everything that frightened her.

Such an interesting subject! I’ve recently had a discussion on the origins of our kink with a woman telling me almost the same thing verbatim - a way to deal with fears and trauma. There seems to be a good degree of correlation with anxiety overall.

Don’t know about other microphiles, I’ve mentioned before that one place it could stem from is extreme shyness. Social phobia wasn’t taken as seriously back then, especially in children (“oh it’s just a phase, it’ll pass”). I guess the thought of shrinking others, making myself bigger in some situations, might have been an internal coping mecanism?

The desire to protect (or control ) is harder to pinpoint - I always loved taking care of smaller animals, or looking after my younger siblings. Beyond that, I think I felt like I lacked control in my life - so having control over another smaller person could have been projection on my part.

Rendering someone helpless and harmless (ie. shrinking) meant I could approach her in spite of said shyness, annnd also act as caretaker. Don’t know if this makes any sense? How all this also became a kink, I’m at a complete loss to explain beyond “hurr durr, me wants tiny woman”

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.

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

@miss-lillipants Thanks for sharing that article. Sadly, I’ve yet to see some in-depth research done specifically for size kinks (we don’t talk about Dr. Helen Friedman).

I agree there’s no be-all / end-all explanation to their origin, I’m not trying to find a universal truth. I’d just like to understand myself better.

@blehb said in A slightly evil scenario:

Or have her get smaller with every sneeze.

I love shrinking triggers like this. It’s fun when the shrinking is out of the SW’s direct control, but even more fun when it’s just slightly out of her control, ie.

• Shrinking when feeling a specific emotion (embarrassed/sad)
• Shrinking when in contact with something (rain/water)
• Shrinking when hearing a specific word (“shrink!”)
• Shrinking when turned on.

Things like these are less on the nose than shrink rays or potions, and the unpredicability of her size change is chef’s kiss to me. Getting tiny at the worst best possible time…

@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?

@Olo I can still tell pretty easily, but then again I’ve spent hundreds of hours generating content and my eyes can spot the telltales of generative AI.

I do love the way you describe them as being statistically generated - a much better term IMHO, closer to reality (Markov Chain).
