Not a site per se, but some of Lee’s short SW stories are amongst my favourite :

@blehb Without going full mean giant mode, you can have gentle yet teasing and playful? What about if he knows about her triggers and he simply can’t resist getting her to shrink in the most inopportune of places and time? I admit it would be hard to resist, and even better if she’s freaking out about it (while secretly enjoying it)

LOL at her shrinking randomly and the poor the giant going “WTF NOT AGAIN!” and getting his magnifying glass

@littlest-lily Lukas’ self-control is next-level. Truly an inspiration for exemplary behavior for the gentle giants out there.

@coolguy69 Oh I’m not really too hung up on my physical appearance. It’s more a realistic take on what I have (and have not) to offer.

Growing older well - uh, this is off topic but - of course there’s the physical aspect : you’re not as much in shape in your 40s than in your early 20s. You need more regular visits to the doctor’s office, and medical tests. You feel signs that some parts of your body are raising the white flag.

But that’s not what scares me. I’ve recently lived through the pain of losing a parent to dementia. I would not wish it on even the most foul human being, yet it happened to the kindest, most gentle soul that ever was. She went away slowly, forgetting everything about her life, about the people she loved, and it took years for her suffering to end.

I’m not scared of death, but this is worse. That will not be my fate.

@Olo The Aints? No way, I’m a Miami Dolphins fan for life (I like pain ).

@AnnDViant in French we say “géant” (male) and “géante” (female), always have. Sadly, there’s no real single word for a shrunken (or tiny) woman, which again hurts visibility and searchability. The closest we have is “lilliputienne” (i.e. an inhabitant of Lilliput, used as an adjective), but it’s not seen very often.

There’s also not much size literature in French, in our folklore or popular culture. Charles Beaudelaire did write a poem called “La géante” in his seminal “Les fleurs du mal” :

La géante

Du temps que la Nature en sa verve puissante
Concevait chaque jour des enfants monstrueux,
J’eusse aimé vivre auprès d’une jeune géante,
Comme aux pieds d’une reine chat voluptueux.
J’eusse aimé voir son corps fleurir avec son âme
Et grandir librement dans ses terribles jeux ;
Deviner si son coeur couve une sombre flamme
Aux humides brouillards qui nagent dans ses yeux ;
Parcourir à loisir ses magnifiques formes ;
Ramper sur le versant de ses genoux énormes,
Et parfois en été, quand les soleils malsains,
Lasse, la font s’étendre à travers la campagne,
Dormir nonchalamment à l’ombre de ses seins,
Comme un hameau paisible au pied d’une montagne.

@blehb Armour can be fun to take off from tinies, in a weird sensual way. It’s hard to explain but removing soft clothes is one thing, but removing heavy ceramite armor pieces? A bit of effort to get to my prize

Sadly this isn’t a mini painted for tabletop gaming (those are much smaller, 1:48 scale), it’s a miniature “doll” for my collection. Yeah, I know, I have dolls, judge me all you want hehe

I don’t have Battle Sisters in my armies but Saint Celestine calls to my heretics-purging, righteous-fury-Paladin inclinations. Also, bonus points if you can guess why I love the Adeptus Sororitas so much? Here’s a clue:

Call me old fashioned, but Shrink Rays all the way! Potions will do too, in a high fantasy setting.

I would also add natural/innate shrinking abilities. Either fully controlled, ie. they can change size at will without too much downside or cooldown. Or, the ability isn’t under the person’s control and they shrink either randomly(!) or under some external factors (emotions, getting wet/hot/cold, etc)

@sirensinner Not open at all. Even as a child I knew something wasn’t quite ‘right’ with me, so I kept this under lock and key, even more so after puberty.

I did try to tell the women who shared my life, but I never could. Awkward, introverted & shy, so communication has never been my forte, let alone discussion about my secret fetish. I have lots of respect to people coming out to their partners.

I think as an older (in my 40s) dom male, it’s simply hard mode. Subby, tiny men offer this “power reversal” trope. Women wanting to be big or shrinking men is “empowering”. But someone like me? I’m “perpetuating harmful gender stereotypes” Only half-joking, because that’s what a lot of normies (and even people in this community) think of classic BDSM, so imagine their reactions to me wanting to shrink women down and use them for sexual gratification?!

I tried to tell my sister with whom I’m otherwise very close, but even then it was a disaster. She was clearly uncomfortable and changed the topic, after acting like this discussion never happened

I’m most certainly taking this to my grave.

@blehb I come from Space Hulk which is a really frustrating fun game that dates back to before Games Workshop got greedy. Armoured marines with angelic names purging heretics called to me hehe.

Some artists are modding their Phicen dolls, some look really life-like (the default heads are uncanny-valley territory). I’m really curious about the “skin” feel. I’ve seen people use them for all sorts of… things. Personally, at that price point I’d be VERY careful with what I do to my dolls, hehe (that’s kinda meta, I wouldn’t want to break my SW either).

@i-am-insane said in What are your favorite clothing items for giants/tinies?:

I’ll be honest, I’ve been thinking about trying my hand with WH40K miniatures.

Sisters of Battle and Astartes are both solid choices. I’d say the Astartes are a bit more beginner-friendly in terms of rules. Just stay away from AdMech. If you’re unsure about the game and maybe want to test it before diving in fully, I’ve heard great things about the starter set:

Or if you have friends that can show you how to play, that’s even better. Oh, and get ready to spend quite a few $$$

@blehb said in Shrinking Abilities:

either love the shrinking process or love the interactions afterward

They’ve always been equally important to me. Give me a good, long, multi-stage shrinking with different interactions at each height and I’m in heaven.

The 7th Voyage of Sinbad

Oh yeah that smoke, with her arm getting smaller and smaller. We’re never getting another movie like this ever, right?

We are but days away from seeing the first trailer for The Miniature Wife, either at the Superbowl or during the Olympics. Finally, after all this time! The rumoured air date is now April 9th, and the main cast is know mostly known :

Only a bit more patience now…

@SizePrize69 Yes, I’m male and I have bought many books from authors within the community over the years, although if I’m being honest some of the absolute best SW stories I’ve read were free. I’ve even bought mainstream books not written by the community that include shrinking, like the “Meek” trilogy.

A few that comes to mind :

• “Just a Few Inches” by Tara St Pierre
• “The Promise” by C.E. Wilson
• “Spare Change” by Bonnie Huffington
• “How the Chips May Fall” by scidram

Highly recommend those books, btw. About male/fem gaze… it’s a relatively new luxury that we have more female authors and I’m here for it. I’ve read so many SW stories from the POV of giants to last me a lifetime, and discovering something written from the other side is so refreshing.

That doesn’t mean that I don’t find malegaze interesting, hell that’s probably all that I could write if I tried anyway, hehe.

@blehb Hehe, nice catch! I was wondering if someone was going to notice there’s no way for her to win!

I didn’t explicitly ask for an unsolvable maze, but maybe that’s beyond the AI’s model. Actually, there’s a “hidden” side entrance to the maze, to the left, which look promising. Whether she’ll spot it or not is another story.
