Don’t Shrink and Drive by Bare-Faced-Cheek

I’d say most of my guilt is self-imposed, reinforced by those factors, and the occasional comments I’ve read.

No censor is so strict or vigilant as an internalized one. Trauma can be self-reinflicted years after the original cause has been removed.

My humble contribution comes tomorrow

I knew we could count on you.

@Technomage I’m working on a long post about dark fantasies. One thing that’s very clear is that when sexual desires are involved we don’t trust people to have honest motives.

There needs to be more M/f Valentine’s Day art! I already posted the two (two!) I know of!

@skysayl said in I found a crumb of M/f in a manga:

I’m glad you seem to have found a way to banish that shame.

Thanks. It took a long while, and there’s a sympathetic twinge every time I see someone else struggling with shame.

At least, I assume you have because every comment I’ve seen from you has been level-headed and emotionally intelligent.

Oh dear. I need to start posting while drunk more.

Did you ever feel like the shame was a result of your fantasy being at odds with your own sense of integrity? The way you’ve worded it, it sounds like there was a belief there that responsibility was synonymous with control.

I believed responsibility was synonymous with adulthood, and I felt I was shirking it by not launching a career or doing any of the other things that were expected of me. If anything, my fantasy was too aligned with my sense of self, such that it was a tempting distraction from getting my shit together. For a while I entertained the possibility that I would have to abandon size fantasy if I were to ever “grow up.”

For me, the idea of a giant being in control is a comforting thing - not because I don’t want control of my life, but because being an adult is exhausting!

When I was feeling ashamed of my shrunken man fantasies, one way I would beat myself up was to tell myself that it was an infantilizing fantasy driven by my reluctance to take responsibility for my life. It took a very long time to give myself permission to take the occasional vacation from adulthood.

Then I had to learn how to give myself permission to enjoy taking control of shrunken women…
