What might be challenging for someone of the SW perspective is to realistically model how a male Biggo who never thought about being attracted to a SW before might “come around” to it. This includes, of course, what sort of stimulation he might expect or hope for from such an encounter. How does he view his own sexual self, and what would he think of a man who gets it on with a mouse-sized woman?
It might be simpler to go after a guy with microphilia, but wouldn’t it be hotter to have to make the case to him (and the reader)?
Yes! I was referring mostly to writing physiological responses + feelings of arousal for men (because I like to include little details like that, even if it’s not the major focus, because the human body is lovely and fascinating. Helps the reader relate, I think). @foreverlurk, you’re probably right in that it’s probably not that complicated. But @Olo, you’ve also brought up a very good point!
This was something I only recently noticed in my own process/preferences: that giants were sort of neutral about the size difference. Like it is an objective truth that he is big and she is small. When the initial attraction develops, it is primarily around her as a person, but he might develop an appeal for her tinyness later. Once that happens though, the challenge is describing that realisation, the moment of discovery, that being able to hold her in the palm of his hand is actually a massive turn on and how it makes him feel. Is he conflicted? Does he embrace it? When that is done well, then I am also well done.
