Goblins

Look.

One of the areas that has seen not as much exploration is the Shortstack genre. I enjoy a good shrink, but then only goes so far as where you have a woman as large as a penis or a clit. I say, no, that isn't interesting. You lose an amount of humanity where it goes so far that it isn't interesting anymore.

What is interesting? You have a woman that can still interact with the world of people, but hasn't shrunk so far that they are treated as a different status. So if you go to 4Chan or other mediums (Corruption of Champions comes to mind), you have this thing going on with Goblins or others (Alfie) that has an appeal that goes *beyond* the traditional "You are six inches tall and you are mine." scenario that has no commentary or emotional reality beyond "I have as much affect for you as a sex toy."

As someone who is an aficionado of "process", having more than height affected in an interesting way (in the same way that something like an elf, Asari, Goblin, or other "modified" individual has an interesting, non-mundane component about them) has FAR more appeal than you might find in individuals collaging women onto city-scapes or other who gives a fuck environments.

It is like the difference between an individual who wants to take some intelligent but outlandish woman with style and individuality versus a person who is just fine with the disposable bimbo in the bikini and the GOD AWFUL stripper heels.

I am going to tell you something. If I ever produce (and that is an eventuality unless I go bankrupt and end up homeless because Real Life), I am not going to create something where a woman shrinks so small that she ends up being a sex toy. She loses touch with general culture and how people treat each other, and I am not okay with that. I am okay with a more emotional exploration of what it means to be smaller. Insects have no appeal. People smaller than how society has conformed itself to others is more appealing.

I played a game recently on tfgamessite.com which you should all visit where you enter the household of a husband and wife who have been transformed into goblins. It is like entering the household of Bilbo Baggins. Everything is on a different scale. Heads bump into ceilings, counters are at knee-height instead of waist-height. In that regard, it is erotic, and if you agree with me, that means you are seeing things on the same wavelength that I do.

I agree LK, it's far more interesting to have someone shrunk or transformed into a smaller size that still allows them to be their own person and not someone's plaything.

You have a genuine emotion when you affect them in such a sense that they are still human.

There are women who are over 18 and are 4'4" that have a much different experience from even the women who can wear six inch heels at 5'0" and can still interact with society.

It is kinda weird to be using the imperial system when the rest of the world and science uses the metric system. Losing a cm has a more subtle, erotic effect than an inch which feels far more fake.

For me half the fun is in the woman having to cope with being at an impossibly small size, whether or not a partner is involved. Think Incredible Shrinking Man. Having to fend for herself after being reduced. Unfortunately works that go beyond "shrink then sex plz" are few and far between.

That being said, I can also see the appeal of someone once tall being reduced to a small, but still possible size.

[Eviscerator]

Goblins, Mobians, Looney Tunes, Dwarfs, Halflings, the list of potential methods goes on.

The inability to interact meaningfully is probably why I prefer MiniGTS over 'Skyscraper is my dildo nao!' sizes, so I have more than a bit of sympathy here.

[Shrinkmaster22]

I'm in agreement, as nice and consistent as shrunken to doll size content is, I would like to see content where shrinking is only half way or to child size. It may be because I do have an attraction to shorter women and "short girl problems" are often real struggles, though admittedly some are entertaining and even kinda hot, but again that's just me.

Come to think of it, I find that most of the transformations stop being fun if they go too far. IMHO, BE is the worst offender in the "inhuman" department.

Forgive the shameless plug, but have any of you checked out my latest, "Shrinking On the Job"? I ask because the two primary antagonists get "short-stacked" in it. ^_^

Also...

I do love me some BE, but I agree it's easy to go too far. And then WAY too far, lol. Seriously, once they're twice the size of her head, you can stop!

The key factor is: "Do they still have a future?"

Can they go outside and interact with the world? Can they date? Could they get a job? Is it that life is more difficult for them in an interesting way or have they been so affected that the reality of their situation doesn't sink in until the man has lost his erection?

I do like the idea of someone being so small as to be an exploration of the world at a minute scale. Something TEMPORARY. There was an artist who showed two women competing in a chess game where every piece lost reduced them in size. That same artist liked to show women shrinking into their shoes and creating a cavernous and more interesting depiction than I see from Clips Sites that stick a microscopic camera into footwear.

This whole thing doesn't work without stylized representation.

What about imps? For example, Midna.

Oh hey, it's my art. But yeah, shortstack-ification either simply proportional transformation or transformation into a fantasy race that is proportioned differently from humans can be rather fun.
