@littlest-lily how dare you share this gift distraction

@SmolChlo I can ham up the Australian drawl. That tends to be a pleaser for some reason (jk, I know why - we sound ridiculous).

Not sure if there’s a thread for this already, but anybody have any webcomics or webtoons with size content (centring around the theme, or simply containing in some way)?

For clarity, this includes comics published online (legally and usually for free or for a small access/subscription fee). As an example, my personal go-tos are Webtoons, Tapas and Manta.

I was reminded recently after reading the latest episode of Lore Olympus by Rachel Smythe on Webtoons. This comic is a contemporary interpretation of the Greek gods and mythology, with a focus on the relationship between Hades and Persephone (with a non-r*pe take). A fantastic comic in general and I highly recommend it for the story, humour and art, but an added bonus is the occasional size content. This usually comes in portrayals of the titans as being many times larger than the gods, who are assumed to be human-sized (with some being able to “grow to titan size” if they are powerful enough).

Another comic of note is The Falcon Princess on Tapas. A story about a princess whose consciousness is mysteriously transferred into the body of a small messenger bird. No one else knows, including the handsome captain of the guard who looks after her. For the first half of the comic she is portrayed as a bird, or as a human in flashbacks. But there have been times her “human form” figuratively substitutes her “bird form” to represent her feelings about (and being in) a certain situation for the reader. Think, woman in birdcage type scenes.

I’m afraid I can’t share screenshots of said scenes, but LR is free to read and TFP has free episodes + “wait until free” type service (inconvenient at times, but Tapas has got lots of content to pass the time).

Anybody else have any suggestions?

Full disclosure, I haven’t listened to the podcast yet.

@foreverlurk got me curious to look up research and published work on macrophilia, because, yeah, that sounds really outdated and unsubstantiated. I mean, it might be true for some people, but I think it’s, at best, an extremely uninformed conclusion.

Professor Mark Griffiths posted a decent blog piece on macrophilia in 2012. It already seems a hell of a lot of insightful into the psychology of extreme size differences. Note his comment on Friedman’s comments:

"However, most online accounts by macrophiles that I have read online, don’t seem to match the psychological profile put forward by Dr. Friedman. "

I know that we, as fans, have enough insight to dismiss her comments (as you have), but perhaps it’s some consolation to see an informed observation coming from the outside.

I’d love to see the results of a survey/study on size fetishes/fascinations more broadly - the few papers I’ve skimmed so far focus on a single person and treats it like a mental illness, which is neither particularly representative or very encouraging. I’ve mentioned before that even a demographics survey would be cool (someone did one a while ago that did the rounds for a few months).

TL;DR Dr Friedman’s comments are, at best, questionable speculation on the roots of macrophilia/size fetishes.

it’s one of the things that disappointed me about the movies…the robots weren’t as big as they were in the 90s cartoon

That said, personally, the idea of having a sizey interaction with a celeb or internet famous person feels a tad ooky on the grounds that 1- I don’t know them personally and 2- It toes the lines of consent.
Sure, famous people have porn made in their likeness after all. Someone literally turned Rebecca Black into a giantess once (which she seemed receptive to when asked about it, funnily enough.) But I ask myself how I would feel if random people had my photos and were turning me into a giantess or manipulating my body or face to fit their particular fantasy without my knowledge. And you know what… it doesn’t feel great. lol

Same, and for the same reasons. So my fantasies don’t involve people in real life, which extends to celebrities or other public figures.

In saying that, some giants I’ve fantasised about (or created original characters with) have been inspired by characters played by certain celebrities, or their physical characteristics like hair, face or body shape, noses, hand size, etc. Features that I generally find attractive. Henry Cavill (lololololol) has made the list, along with Lee Pace, Richard Armytage, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and a handful of professional wrestlers for their great thighs.

Okay he’s not a “giant” in the sense we think of, but he’s still freaking SEVEN FOOT TWO (218 cm!)

But what if - and hear me out -

I’ve bought so many books and other media based on the fact that they appeared to be giant-related.

@Olo said:

Comic books are the worst in this regard. Size differential has such an immediate and universal symbolic meaning.

Aren’t they just? Like there was absolutely no chance that Reacher would have any sizey stuff happening (just posted as a bit of fun), but it’s much harder to tell with fantasy, sci-fi and horror media in general. I appreciate the imagery, but my little heart and my bank account can only take so much disappointment

Speaking of comics: here’s a few choice pages from a JLA comic someone from CF kindly posted a while ago. When I first saw the cover, I thought “oh, this must be symbolic.”

It wasn’t.

I like to revisit this one when I’m looking for “giant superheroes causing accidental chaos in a city” inspiration :3

1. That looks like a giant phone
2. Imagine a giant texting that to all of the normal-sized people in the area just before he shows up

Oh no, I’m glad I’m not walking through again right now, because this has got me all flustered

@FairyFanatic thank you! I’ll happily share if I create anymore, writing or drawing

I’m fortunate to have one of my best friends being into size stuff and we constantly share scenarios, ideas, creative projects etc. Very, very few of my friends know otherwise, and those I’ve told years ago have probably forgotten (or I like to believe that they think I’ve moved on from it all - that’s what I tell them anyway).

My ex knows, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s used it to paint me as some weirdo to mutuals, including to others in our profession - bit of a concern when the national field is rather small - but what can you do?

I shared recently with my current partner: aside from him just being amazing anyway, I was spared a lot of additional embarassment with a simple acknowledgement and some general follow-up questions. Not in an apathetic way either, he could tell I was sharing something really personal and was already uncomfortable. It makes me giddy when he reminds me that I (5’3") am small compared to him (6’2")

@TakoAlice8 said in Asexual Size kinkers, what are your struggles?:

I am not sure if I could be looking in the wrong places, but a lot of the pictures I found tend to focus more on sexual aspect of the fetish.

I’m not asexual, but am very sympathetic to this as my tastes have changed over the years. Whilst the content posted on this forum is primarily geared towards the sexual side, it’s not like it’s compulsory. To some people (I daresay a lot, if not most), there is far more to this fetish/fascination/interest/trope than sex, like @tinyborrower has highlighted (which btw is -chef’s kiss- ). I hope you feel comfortable to continue to share your thoughts, tastes and perspectives here

Ugh I love noses so much. They’re so handsome.

Noses are lovely ️ boops, little kisses on the tip and nuzzles along the bridge are some of my favourite interactions. It’s a very intimate spot

So the God of War franchise is no stranger to titan sized beings with the Greek Titans making plenty of appearances pre-PS4, and Norse Giants/Joten (who are not always literal giants) playing a key role in our protagonists’ story in the more recent Next Gen versions.

Sadly, there’s not much in terms of M/f content, with one brief scene I remember in GoW2 with Rhea and Kronos at 0:50 :

https://youtu.be/fKMrPV81gyo

Another is the interactions between Pandora and Hephaestus in GoW3, the story of her creation here at 1:40 :

https://youtu.be/rJsdNOi-itA

But one part I think of note is from the more recent GoW Ragnarok involves Atreus entering the home of the giantess, Gryla, to save some animals. I realise the scene below focusses primarily on Atreus, a teenage boy, but he is accompanied by Angrboda, who is also the granddaughter of Gryla. Also, there are some nice perspective/comparative shots of them against features of a giant’s home, kitchenware and Gryla herself. I guess this could be for the exploration fans!

This part of the story itself is quite sad (but what part of the game isn’t?) with themes of abandonment, loss and the toll grief can take on family.

Scale is maybe 1:6 ?

@Aborigen Some great questions, thanks for putting it together

She’s of course experiencing both fear and eagerness, which is why the heart on the floor is divided.
