@miss-lillipants said in Question Tiny Ladies.:

Personally, I love my giants to be broad-shouldered and sculpted like a statue, but it’s not necessary. I’d like for him to be attractive, but the specifics of his looks comes secondary to his personality, actions, intentions and the overall story. It’s a feature, not the main event. As @littlest-lily says,

@littlest-lily said in Question Tiny Ladies.:

I like for the giant to be attractive (just according to my IRL tastes), but the kink is around the fact that he’s much, much bigger. And then at that point I care more about what he does than what he looks like.

Hmm. So what I’m getting here is that while good looks are desired, they’re secondary to the overall package of overwhelming size/compatible personality, is that it?

And there’s no… overemphasized feature, just… a normal, attractive man, blown up to point where he can step on people/cars/cities.

@SmolChlo
I mean, I can’t make half this stuff, I don’t get to talk. Is yelling a lot going to help make author/artist make more stuff? I don’t know what they think that’s doing for them.

@Nyx
I mean, you say misogynistic, but really, it feels like they just hate… humans, really. They turn women into tools for the sexuality, lobotomized them into mindless killers or amoral sociopaths as soon as they’re looking at someone smaller, yeah, but at best men generally end up as sex slaves in GTS, if not just killed. So much GTS stuff is just… ‘what if an apocalyptic meteor was a boob or a foot instead’ or something, like they just want everyone and everything to die. I can count actual gentle GTS stuff I remember on one hand, and one of the first size stories I ever found is a gentle one where the man is basiclly unbirthed into a permanent coma at the end.

It’s very… I don’t know, it makes me think of a death cult, sometimes.

So, in Fate Extella, one of the main characters/waifu is not only a GTS (Nasu is an infamous obvious GTS fetishist, considering how many women in his settings end up gigantic), but is a literal world destroying monster. Yet, most of her interaction is kind, and there’s literally a (text only) sequence straight out of a gentle GTS dream (or an sw’s, considering you can have the mc be a female).

I saw someone on a forum say that Altera woke the GTS fetish in him, then he looked it up and lost it because of what he found. Presumably, in the span of the same day.

They self sabotage themselves at times but also, their fanbase is bigger.

This. I can get, on the face of it, wanting bigger women because big boobs/legs/etc, but the fandom around drove me off and I never really went back, but I can’t go anywhere size-y without seeing them because they’re everywhere.

@Olo
Mostly images/comics, where they either start off huge, even if they remain normal sized or get huge as they go. I read less stories these days, because it’s usually easier to tell that this will be ‘F/m’ rather than maybe having something else in there, but there generally seems to be an assumption that the woman is attractive, if not the big boobs ending up directly stated to be growing/always big/‘looming like mountains’ or something.

@HHunter1
I mean, if it’s made by a guy, not surprised; everyone wants to to feel more attractive, and there is a focus on that for guys, but that’s why I’m asking women, because it’s clear on the ‘men writing GTS’ end they like abnormally large boobs, even if it’s not to inflation fetish extent, yet so far it seems that women don’t really care about the equivalent on men.

Hmm. Unless the equivalent is actually huge, bulging muscles or something? Big arms broad shoulders?

Hmm… yeah, I get that. In the first place I only like the realistic options after all, but if we’re working off the logic that most GTS content is from men… well, it made me curious about the reverse.

So… out of a sort of dreadful curiosity, and while this topic is here, I gotta ask.

I’ve made it a habit lately to try and flip GTS cliches and imagine them in a GT/sw context, but there’s one thing that bugs me: a lot of GTS stuff ends up with the woman having… frankly, ridiculous breasts. From ‘theoretically possible if at jackpot lottery odds’ to ‘this is bigger than her entire body’, and every stage in between.

So… applying that the other polarity… would you like, or mind, a giant, or normal guy, with an equally impossibly large dick? And, while I’m at it, being tiny with ridiculously huge breasts (which is the inversion of another common GTS thing, where the normal guy gets a giant penis so he can be used by the giantess).

@littlest-lily
I’ve been on a bit of a micro kick lately, so applying that logic ot a micro? It must be like getting dropped from a plane without a parachute.

I’m conflicted on if its more interesting to have an adrenaline junky be addicted to be tossed around like a toy, or a woman panic every time she gets accidently blown of the table, even if she comes out of it fine every time. Or considering micros… both!

@littlest-lily
Well. Now I need to work it into a story somewhere that a tiny keeps getting thrown around, but is always fine, so she loses all fear of heights and/or gets super traumatized.

@Olo
I mean, narrative convenience is one thing, but what about on the realism end. Or, ‘realism’, anyways?

@littlest-lily
That’s the thing though: an ant can. Could a woman of equal size do that?

No, seriously; creatures that small are built around being that small, and insects are famously much stronger proportionally than a human is. Could a woman and her hands match an ant’s mandibles?

@blehb said in Lesser Known Inconveniences of Being Giant/Tiny:

I am the same way. I dwell too much on the details and fail to make a single cohesive story, and at some point give up on writing anything at all!

It’s just so easy to spiral on it! I think, ‘Oh, I like this idea, and I want it in the story’, but then it’s like… why is that there? What caused it? How would that work on a biological/societal level? What are the repercussions of this change and it’s like-

I just want to write about a giant hugging a woman shaped robot piloted by his normal sized girlfriend so they can still have physical contact even if it’s really hard for them normally, is that so hard?! I don’t want to wholesale make up a setting-wide backstory to explain it!

Meanwhile, I’ve also thought about how really small tinies, women so small that the surface tension is a factor, would drink.

Honestly, I’m leaning towards the idea of no really being able to ‘drink’ it, and it being more of getting needed moisture from their food…

Which brings up the fact that, at that size, they probably couldn’t eat a lot of food; too big, too tough. Honestly, outside of artificial things, smoothies, pastes and what not, I’d think they’d be forced to eat only fruit, and only certain fruits, at that: the berries and the like, the really soft ones, or something someone else opened for them. I doubt they could even get through an apple’s skin.

@foreverlurk Chronic overthinker, thaaaaat’s me!

I’ve never felt more known.

I think the problem is the plumbing, hooking it up and all that.

So, how is the bathroom handled? After a certain point you can probably do hamster cage thing, maybe put an area aside, but when they’re bigger? Or if you’re not doing the hamster cage?

Best I’ve ever figured is the defacto built-into-the-seat child’s tiny’s toilet seat I used once, where between the lid and the usual seat is one with a much smaller hole so the little lady doesn’t fall in. That, and ladders. So many ladders.
