I was under the impression it was a shrinking process forum. Not a shrinking woman only forum.

Some leap of faith is required, I think. A while back I was reading something where some brainiac theorized that a monster like Godzilla (or maybe it was King Kong) would be impossible because their bone density would never support such weight and just taking a few steps would be crippling and merely breathing would be difficult.
I kinda think the "same" would be true for really tiny people. They would be super fragile and delicate. Nature has designed bugs the way they are for a reason (exoskeletons, no lungs, etc) because that is best for their sizes. And they are still very delicate when you try to handle them. We wouldn't work as well being scaled up or down to that extreme.
Tl;dr Setting your own rules for the narrative is part of the fun.

I wasn't looking to set rules for anything. I merely wanted to know if a couple could still realistically be sexually intimate with each other. Along with, if the woman could safely and comfortably carry him around in bra all day.
Though these questions did come about when I was thinking of a story idea. With the ramifications about being so close together and no longer able to be with each other.
