I agree that we need a better term for male giants, if only for the Size community. I actually find the word “giantess” to be both tired and too narrow for the many purposes to which it is put. If we’re getting into the business of defining new terminology for the Size community, we might also want to consider making a distinction between true giants who are larger than the rest of society and normal-size men who interact with anomalously tiny people.
Quinn just came out with another essay, this time about how masculine giants are perceived in Size spaces. It is an excellent discussion of the history of the Size communities and the differing perceptions of who is supposed to play which roles. Helpfully, Quinn also adds his personal experience navigating these expectations.
@TakoAlice8 So this was the first thing I could come up with. This artist is still on Tumblr, and some of their ladies are “non-conventional,” but I’m not seeing much Size art. I’ll keep looking.
Special Unit 2 was a short-lived sci-fi/fantasy series in 2001-2002 about a secret (municipal!) police unit tasked with discreetly handling mythological creatures and events that weren’t all that mythological. These creatures were collectively referred to as “Links” (as in “Missing Link”).
In the second season opener “The Grain,” there’s a brief scene with a Link called a “Parasite,” which apparently takes the form of a tiny human and eats living entrails. Nothing more about Parasite ecology is ever explained, but who cares because it’s played by the scrumptious Michelle Krusiec in a bikini. Enjoy.
@skysayl As with so many other things, these guys would be in a much better place if they simply listened to women (who vary quite widely) when they say what they want. Too much effort, I guess.
Whether it’s anonymous roleplaying or a long-term IRL relationship, if you’re not curious about what your partner genuinely wants, what are you even doing?
@littlest-lily Advanced Therapy: Watching him eat.
This speaks to me because I already consider my size fantasies to be works of art.
