@i-am-insane Sex-related guilt is not confined to the U.S., but our Puritanism lends itself easily to sex-negativity both in faith-based guilt trips and in personal hangups. I was extremely sex-negative in my adolescence, and that had nothing to do with size fantasies (which I thought were unique to me and didn’t even rise to the level of “kink”). Everyone has to find their own path through this shit, and only you can release you.
@tiny-ivy I didn’t read the original draft of this chapter, but the recent version flows very well!
@Kisupure Glad to hear that webrings are still around. Let me Find what I want rather than Feed it to me.
@littlest-lily Mug-warmer FTW! This is now part of the canon of tiny accommodations.
I hope Aiden doesn’t have any awkward surprises for Evie in his laptop’s browser history.
One of my favorite aspects of handhelds is the opportunity for non-verbal communication through body language.
@TakoAlice8 I didn’t know that DeviantArt had been bought or by whom, but I’m not at all surprised that this has been the consequence.
@sumguy13 said in Gift of a Tiny Woman:
Author’s comment has me turned off to them though.
He’s outside his comfort zone. Everyone deserves some space to experiment. There was a time I would have echoed his comment.
@i-am-insane To quote my own blog:
I am a full-on feminist. I espouse and practice affirmative and enthusiastic consent among real people. I support dignity, respect, and justice for all people everywhere. I abhor cruelty, dehumanization, and bullying, whether they are committed by individuals, institutions, nations, or faiths. I also sometimes get off to fantasies of shrinking, kidnapping, raping, and eating women (sometimes it’s the other way around).
If you find this difficult to comprehend, this might not be the blog for you. Or perhaps it is.
In my opinion, G/t ASMR (where the performer looms over and addresses the camera as if it is a tiny person) only really works if the performer is willing to expose their whole face. Voice is important, but you need to have their eyes on you.
@sumguy13 At the risk of sounding patronizing, I don’t think Aborigen was speaking out of conviction, but rather his personal aesthetic. Both his male and female characters display a full range of moral worthiness, and none of them are exempt from narrative judgment upon their actions. He was just expressing some understandable hesitation about writing a story intended for sexual gratification of the reader that features distress being visited upon a female character.
Nazis do have it coming to them, but that is a straightforward judgment upon the (well-understood) consequences of Nazis’ statements and actions. In fact, the uncomplicated nature of punishing Nazis makes it less interesting for me to incorporate into a new story. I’d rather write about more intimate transgressions.
