size pervs

@Olo licking is fine but…

Credit to RogueSchol over on SWB for digging out this post-season interview with our queen Lizze Broadway:

Really seems like a fun person all around. She mentions writing a 40-pages character biography about Emma (and I thought my D&D character backgrounds were novels!), in which she mentions her relationship with her mom, and like when she got small for the first time(!), her sexual experiences(!!), etc. No specifics but maybe that’s something we could potentially see later on.

She also jokes about being short IRL(!!!) : “I’m 5’2" on a really good day, on a really bad day I’m like 5’0"”

PS: Forgot to add something about my “looking-at-my-hand” quick fix - I tried VR w/ some size interaction recently and, while I don’t want to overhype it or anything (there are still some limitations), it’s the closest thing I ever experienced to that dream. I think everyone should give it a try!

With the VR tech only getting better, it’s going to be a wild ride in 5 or 10 years…

@skysayl YES. I have watched that one… too many times lol. It’s still one of my favorite, but it could have been even better. I’m blown away that top talents got together and decided to create a G/t animation, out of all possibilities.

The original plan was for the woman to actually shrink, but the setting in which the woman looks like a cockroach was added later:

“Originally, the story was about a woman who became small and fought enemies that appeared in the small world, such as cats, hamsters, Roomba and even cockroaches, but the relationship between the three parties (boyfriend, woman and enemies) became too complicated, so the cockroaches (enemies) and the woman were combined.”

So the whole Kafka-esque plot was put together after they couldn’t make the original SW idea work. Sad, since I would have liked to see her shrinking out of her clothes in such a nice animation style.

I don’t understand Japanese but there’s also an hour long interview available here:

@Aborigen No problems, size identities can be complex to navigate. I know I have no desires to grow or be a literal giant, I only want to be huge relative to the shrunken woman at my feet.

I also know some ladies that prefer to be normal sized with said literal giant, which is also completely valid. I think your questions were open enough that we understood the assignment regardless.

@skysayl said in When Chaotic Good Giants Attack:

the fact that there are people who exist that would happily fill the giant slot in my funny little fantasies

Seriously it is unreal, especially thinking back on my early days “no way anybody else on Earth is into that, let alone women, ah!”

I don’t know if you’ve seen Jaxon Sorby’s “Small Molly”, but he created a few sketches and animations which reminded me of this. Here’s a comparison between his work (left) and to the right a reference sketch from 20min Walk from Nishi-Ogikubo Station…

I’m a huge fan of his work, have a look : https://www.instagram.com/lumber.jaxon/

@skysayl said in The dream:

yay, your dream came true, you shrunk! Time to go find boyfriend and–

… “and”? AND what!?

I love how you think though! First thing after being shrunk? Must. Find. (now) Giant boyfriend.

Thank you so much.

It’s so interesting that you bring up Freud because that was actually one of my fears when I first thought about going to therapy. I’ve studied him when I was younger and I was worried that his ideas were still being used. I’m much more a fan of Carl Jung, but that’s another story.

Here in Canada, at least in Quebec, CBT is by far the most used method. My therapist main area of expertise is with PTSD for Canadian Armed Forces personnel, where CBT has shown to be greatly effective.

@tiny-ivy said in Depression and Size Kink:

If you’re finding that this kink is too troubling, you can put it down and walk away for as long as you want. It will still be here for you if you ever want to pick it up again, after a period of time of you focusing on your mental health.

That’s the thing… I’ve already tried to put it down in the past, and the truth is that I simply can’t. It’s not a switch I can turn off, it’s a huge part of my sexuality wheter I want it or not. I thought that I could live without it and it only led to even more frustration and isolation. I realize not everyone with the fetish has this level of intensity, but that’s just my own experience.

@Olo

I’m not female so maybe not qualified to answer fully, but what I personally like about it compared to MOST (not all) male writers :

• Larger overall focus on psychological aspects and growth of characters
• Insights and narratives presented purely from the SW’s point of view (sooo interesting)
• Slower pace overall, richer build-up to get to the spicy parts (bigger payoff!)
• More space and easier for me to insert as the male/giant in stories, sometimes eerily so(!)

My take is that usually the male gaze is focused on our (male) needs without delving too much into the consequences of such actions. I guess partly because some male authors would then share at least some level of guilt or shame at their character’s actions, or also perhaps because they don’t actually care and see the SW as a sex object/tool (which is okay sometimes, not judging).

But again I want to reiterate not all male authors are like that.

@littlest-lily What… me, moi, having “ulterior motives”? Never!

@Olo When I saw this I was really this close to posting it on GiantessCity. Not sure if they would appreciate that kind of humor.

@littlest-lily said in Language barrier:

He hardly knows any French and now she wishes she’d paid closer attention to her English classes lol.

Oh you know I love this idea!

If i could run away with it, I would set this in Canada as it would be relevant to our own IRL language issues that have been ongoing between French and English for generations here.

It could bring an interesting personal layer to a situation where they not only have to work out some way over the language barrier, but also overcome their own prejudices towards one another’s cultures.

@BigCuddlyGiant While it’s still impressive tech, I feel Luma was way overhyped (they cherry picked the videos in their demo).

What I would like is to be able to give keyframes and let the AI interpolate the render in between (yes, I’m thinking of a shrinking sequence, of course )

I did more tests here but I don’t think the tech is quite ready yet.
