@Nyx No rage like nerdrage.

@SmolChlo This is what I looked like after a year of social distancing.

@SmolChlo By contrast he’s remarkably smooth Down Under, isn’t he?

I keep having moments of pausing and wondering “should I share my stuff here? There’s nothing sexual in this one at all, there isn’t even anything romantic!”

It all contributes to the collective faith in, as Aborigen put it, Someplace This Was Real.

Downright adorable is what it is.

Stop stealing my comments!

I remain envious of your industry. Do you plan to keep this one just from Cameron’s POV?

I have also noticed the (general) trend of it being mostly men who have the “which celebrity/character” discussion.

It’s a discussion that men are constantly encouraged to have in a way that women typically aren’t (although this is changing rapidly, of course).

I also have the opposite problem of “bleed-over,” where once a given actor has taken a role in a Sizey scenario, that actor remains “potentially Sizey” in every other role they play. Diana Rigg, Barbara Eden, Jessica Lange, Teri Hatcher, Robin Williams, Brooke Shields, Melissa Joan Hart, Pamela Anderson, Ted Danson, Alfre Woodard are now all “Size-tainted” for me.

I’m going to make a generalization and say that looking at an image of a random person or celebrity and deciding to incorporate that image into a personal sexual fantasy is a form of entitlement that anyone can indulge in but is massively encouraged by the male gaze. Men in our society have no problem speculatively placing anyone and anything into a sexual context, and this extends to discussion prompts like “Wouldn’t [X} make an awesome giantess?” and the thousands of sizey photoshops we’ve seen since the dawn of the Internet. I’m not saying this always wrong, exactly, but it’s an artifact of our sexist culture and we shouldn’t be surprised when women are less likely to engage in it.

The whole issue of photoshopping people without their consent (or legal permission to use the photos) is complicated because, to be blunt, Size Fantasy as a genre might not have become as popular as it is today without it. Today we have hundreds and hundreds of Size artists, writers, render artists, models, actors, and other creative people producing specifically with a Size fetish audience in mind. Thirty years ago we, uh, didn’t. Individual fetishists were creating for themselves, but they probably would never have started sharing their creations if they didn’t think there was an audience for it. In the 90s, simple photoshops of celebrities enlarged to 500-feet-tall were thrillingly easy to make and circulate, rapidly demonstrating that an audience for Size Fantasy did in fact exist. These days I don’t look twice at most Size photo collages, because tailored Size illustrations and renders exist in plenty. We also have models and actors who are intentionally posing to be 'shopped into Size collages, and those always make me smile. We now have the luxury of disregarding celebrity photo collages and pirated porn.

It’s kinda similar to how I’m not interested in fanfiction either and would much rather read original content involving size.

So here is where I admit that my autism is something of a hindrance to enjoying Size content. When I first started browsing Size Tumblr, I was flummoxed by all the characters from anime and videogames being shoehorned into size scenarios. Did these shows or games have regular Size themes? Some basic research indicated that no, they were from all manner of genres and didn’t particularly lend themselves to the scifi or supernatural genres where growth and shrinking were possible. It took me probably longer than necessary to realize that the artists and 3D modelers were using established characters from known fandoms because that’s all they had to work with. The fact that their giantess waifu was from a show where no one ever grew or shrank wasn’t an obstacle for them, but it was a constant frustration to me.

For me, the goal was to enjoy size differential itself, not imagine how established characters would appear and respond to a mixed-size juxtaposition. The backstories of these characters was a distraction at best and often spoiled the whole illusion. If they were from a genre where a Size encounter made sense, fantasy magic or superheroes, say, it was easier to accept. Giant Mulder or Shrunken Scully, sure. The Tiny Housewives of Beverly Hills, not so much.

So, yes, please, create original characters and settings for your Size scenarios. Put a little work into how they got that way. Take pity on the literal-minded.

Just for closure, the shrinking scene is only a few seconds longer than what we see in the trailer. The two main characters are on their first “date,” going to a trendy restaurant called “Little Italy.” Before the guy outside shrinks them with a “boop,” the male character hunches down and peers through the tiny window, looking at two shrunken women enjoying their dinner (they don’t notice the giant face looking at them). The female character is “booped” first, and after she’s tiny she tells the guy to “boop” her date too.

The gag continues as the two diners eat giant Italian food inside, but there’s no more interaction with giant characters. Later we see them walking home normal-sized, and we never see them return to normal size.

If I had to guess, we’ll probably never see Signor Boop again.

Sure, go ahead, abet more evil.

@giantmaneddie I knew something was supposed to happen on March 6. Thanks for staying on top of it.

For years I let myself be deterred from embracing my M/f desires by (in part) the most vile voices describing what they would like to do to shrunken women. To this day I am more likely to call a SW a “bug” than a “bitch.” I know there are SWs out there who crave straight-up misogynist abuse from giant men, but I have to work myself up to provide that.

I still remember being taken aback by an anonymous comment from a SW on Tumblr who wanted to be passed around by a fraternity and abused every which way. I knew the inverse scenario was a staple of the SM fantasy, so I eventually shrugged and let it become the inspiration for Bitter Dregs, which some readers indeed wrinkled their noses at.

I knew I’d get a similar reception for The Prof, although it was easier to write knowing that I might eventually give those guys their comeuppance.
