Winona’s latest movie by Out-of-size

Trying to keep and modify “giant” seems futile. In English the suffix “-ess” is how a generic noun is “marked” as female. It’s a deliberately sexist construction, assuming the default person is male.

I think we’d be better off using another synonym altogether or even inventing entirely new words.

@i-am-insane The biggest “inconvenience” that I hand-wave away is tiny voices being too faint and squeaky and giant voices being too loud and rumbly. I need my characters to be able to converse. Frequently and easily.

@foreverlurk I went looking for an online German translation of Gulliver’s Travels and I found this. Who knows what we’ll get this time?

I much prefer “lilliputienne”.

German doesn’t seem to like double consonants like those in “Lilliput.” Their words for male and female inhabitants of Lilliput are Liliputaner and Lililputanerin.

I bought the first hard copy of Milo Manara’s Gulliveriana I came across, which was in France. When Gulliveriana finally has her big disagreement with the Empress of Lilliput, she calls the latter a “Lilliputasse.”

F/m has been my primary interest for most of my fetish “career.” Over the years I have observed with increasing dismay and disgust how petty and entitled the loudest segment of F/m enthusiasts became, arrogating to themselves ownership of “the Giantess fetish” and demanding everyone in Size spaces recognize their authority and conform to their prescriptions. There’s nothing about F/m that requires such obnoxious behavior and it’s embarrassing to be associated with it.

The chief problem with “objectification” (in any context) is that it removes other people, erasing their personalities and needs and wants, and treating them as mere props in one’s own narrative. A male F/m fan who has a simplistic and rigid view of how giantesses are supposed to behave is indeed engaging in objectification of women in his fantasy. The remedy is to compose a fantasy featuring complex and varied characters, both male and female, such that everyone has different reactions to the scenario and more readers/viewers can find room for themselves or at least for their desires.

A physical fetish like Size is naturally going to “objectify” elements such as body parts, sensations, and emotional effects. There’s nothing wrong with that. F/m should focus on giant female bodies just as much as M/f should focus on giant male bodies. That’s what we’re here for. As a straight dude who enjoys M/f, I want to see/read how tiny women feel in the presence of giant men. That’s objectification I actively desire.

I completely sympathize with anyone tired of how hegemonic F/m has become in Size spaces. You have nothing to apologize for when venting your feelings on this subject.

@nephilim Hiya Neph!

From a formatting perspective, I would defer to those few authors who have started posting long (ie, multi-post) fiction here. I’ve posted a couple of stories on Eka’s, and I gotta say I don’t care for the presentation there. Just my personal opinion.

I don’t know how many “casual” readers of this forum already have or want to make accounts on Eka’s. If you’ve a mind to create some M/f content exclusively for DD, I think that would be glorious.
