I wanna know people’s earliest indicators or when it finally went full fledged growth/size>all haha
For me apparently I was a precocious hornball xD my first time I went O.O to someone big was a coloring book I had of A Goofy Movie and it was of Pete and his big ol belly in a pool and he took up most of it and I would look at that page for a long time and I refused to color on it. I ran around saying “I wanna be bigger!” For years and it always made people laugh hahaha. I think my fate was written at that time xD I was probably 4 or 5 I think. It was giving that one meme with Robin hood being tied up
Then in like late middle school I was definitely looking at burly beefy guys but especially if they had “dad bod” I would staaaare. I could not wait until I could play around with a bigger dude or jock or that hot wrestler that was getting way into bodybuilding that I sat next to in band and used to jokingly flirt with (but literally made out with at a furry convention 10 years later xD yesss!) but never got the chance all through high school.
In terms of ME growing - definitely in early high school I didn’t want (any of me) to stop growing, it’s fun to be big but it would be even more fun to be bigger (especially dick and just overall size which has remained to this day xD). I’ve been blessed with being well enough sized all around but with average height…
I also ended up falling into the furry porn stuff in high school because man those dicks were so big and then oh wow those muscles/bellies are so big this is so much better xD but didn’t join the fandom or speak to any furry until like 8 years later haha. And I went from “uwu twink 18 year old” to “proud owner of dad bod” myself" xD because it just feels good to be huge and grow
I think it’s so funny and cute and interesting what little things just flip a switch in our brains at some point! I’d love to hear everyone’s
the first for me was many years ago i was just scrolling through images online and saw a few pictures. Was a bit confused but also curious and saw a few more images from the series of pictures, and eventually got me into furry and macro as a whole. The pictures were an old small series of pictures from Stampydragon. So it is quite nice that i have pics from stampy now after being inspired to join this stuff by him in the first place.. -w-
I realized I was into size very very soon, way before finding out about furries.
I remember trying my best to watch cartoons at the same time I did the previous times whenever I accidentally stumbled upon one of those growth focused episodes hoping to see it again for months in a row, and I definitely already wanted the growth to happen to me just like in those cartoons >>
Of course i wasn’t aware of it being a kink, I didn’t even know what kinks were back then of course, I just thought “why is growing so cool, I want way too much of it too!!” Whenever I got reminded of it by any sort of media or situation! Definitely an early awakening x3
The first instance of ‘I feel funny’ crazily enough was a comic strip in a Calvin and Hobbes book.
Calvin eating at the dinner table imagination runs wild and he grows and swells up.
The end of the strip was him being sick as his dad tells him to slow down eatting.
A cavalcade of other macro/micro related things started occuring that I began to notice.
OG Spyro the dragon, i kept trying to get Spyro hit by the growth/shrink rays (Dreamweavers) cause I wanted to see him bigger.
Various cartoons had ‘that one episode’ that had to be the obligatory giant episode. The ones that stuck out most to me was King-Sized Canary by Tex Avery, Tom and Jerry: Dr Jekyll Mr. Mouse, and Courage the Cowardly Dog.
As a kid, I loved the Bowser’s Inside Story giga fights. Something about becoming large and powerful just tickled me into replaying it for those fights. I felt so unstoppable on every fight, but it was imagining what smaller people thought when Bowser got that large that REALLY set me down this road.
waaaaaay before I got into the furry fandom..
I think what did it for me was watching a video of a mario cartoon where bowser drank a potion and grew bigger than a building, destroying it or something..
then I watched muscle growth animations
I’ve loved giantess furry content since a young age, before knowing what it was for quite a while. I was kinda sheltered, and didn’t get to finding the adult stuff until like 22 years old.
As for ME growing? Happened when I found the red and blue avatar you see here in my pfp, actually. Last October, I found this Vulper and it.. clicked. And then my love for perpetual growth just kept fitting more and more. So I started that growth drive, and it just cemented it.
I’m not much for muscle or fat or anything, but I could grow forever and not be satisfied~
I think for me it was a couple different things, Watching Godzilla when I was young, Tom and Jerry, angry beavers, a bunch of cartoons from the 90s probably did it for me. Digimon and power rangers definitely contributed to it too.
Honestly I believe it was when I first saw “strawberry flavor” by pokkuti THAT got me into growth and it rolled down deeper into love of growth and size!
I do think cartoons that involved growth got me interested when I was younger. Felt like that got accelerated by stuff like Bowser growth moments/fan art, Smash Bros mushroom stacker videos, and Geltydrake uploads.
And then of course, there was DNAPalmhead’s work, which is one of my biggest (heh) inspirations for doing macro art today. Remember stuff like Free Lunch and the Smash Bros. fanfic. Still support his work today.
