Tiny Guy, Huge Girl: Difference between revisions

* [[DC Comics]]:

** [[New Gods|Scott Free]] and Big Barda. Awww, so cute.

** Also with Scott Free's Manager Oberon and Fire.

** Post-''[[Zero Hour]]'' ''[[Legion of Super-Heroes]]'' had Monstress and Element Lad, which might also count as [[Beast and Beauty]] except for the fact that Monstress doesn't have a "Beast" personality.

* Avatar Comics

** Christos Gage's ''Absolution'' has Alpha, a female [[Nigh Invulnerability|Brick]], well over six feet tall and happily married to a non-metahuman man of considerably more average proportions.

 

== Fan Works ==

* In the opening sequence of ''[[The Triplets of Belleville]]'', the audience consists ''entirely'' of tiny men and their enormous wives.

* Mr. and Mrs. Wormwood in ''[[Matilda (film)|Matilda]]''.

 

== Literature ==

** Sometimes they like to [https://web.archive.org/web/20210302012150/https://www.google.com/afs/ads/i/iframe.html exaggerate their size difference].

** Princess Daisy is more or less the same height as Peach. Rosalina on the other hand, is much taller (she is approximately the same height as Waluigi). Even more so with Rosalina, who was seen as a giant at the end of both ''Galaxy'' games, and the ''[[Mario Kart]]'' series games classes her as a heavyweight despite her slender [[Princess Classic]] type delicate build.

* In ''Metal Combat'' (the sequel to ''[[Battle Clash]]''), the alien Zephyr has a huge and hideous wife named Pamela who is a good deal taller and wider then him. Even her mech is huge!

* [[The Napoleon|Shoma]] and [[Huge Schoolgirl|Natsu]] from ''[[Rival Schools]]'', though both have trouble [[Cannot Spit It Out|expressing those feelings]] and spend their time [[The Masochism Tango|arguing with each other]] [[Slap Slap Kiss|instead]].

* [[Fable]]. In the second game investing in Strength will give you muscles, while investing in Skill gives you height, meaning than a female character can potentially end up much taller and more burly than a husband. There is also a far bit of fan art with [[Brawn Hilda|Hammer]] and [[Squishy Wizard|Garth]] that strongly features this trope. In the third game, the Princess is taller than almost everyone else from the outset, possibly because of her Heroic bloodlines).

* [[Dragon's Dogma]]. Due to the the game's main feature of Pawns (you create a main Pawn to be your constant battle partner/follower) you can create a tall/muscular/plump woman as your main character, and then make a short/skinny man as your main Pawn (or vice versa).

 

== Web Comics ==

* In the ''[[Harley Quinn]]'' cartoon, Dr. Psycho - a [[Depraved Dwarf]] - seems to have a fetish of sorts involving women much larger than he is. He brainwashed [[Hot Amazon|Giganta]] into marrying him and even sired a son before the brainwashing wore off and she left him. (Poison Ivy asks him in one episode [[Improbable Species Compatibility| how it was even possible]].) In a later episode, Poison Ivy drinks some forumula that makes her grow to giant size, and Psycho quickly starts gawking at her.

* In ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' episode "My Leg!" it is strongly hinted that one reason Fred keeps hurting his leg is because he's in love with a nurse at the hospital, who turns out to be a huge, muscular woman about twice his size.

 

== Real Life ==

* This is, as you might expect, [[Fetish Fuel]] for some people. [[I Thought It Meant|This is not related to]] (but still can cross over with) giantism related fetishes. Even if the girl's not bigger, many of these guys like it when a girl can kick their butts.

** There's also an interesting variation. Some men and women like to have ONLY the height and things related to height (such as who puts their arm around who) defy stereotypes and gender roles while preserving traditional dimorphism aspects otherwise, such as a 6'0" 260 lb strongman and martial arts type guy with a 6'3" 160 lb woman. It's almost like a [[Double Subversion]] in a way.

* Sophie Dahl and Jamie Cullum.

* [[Tom Cruise]] and either [[Nicole Kidman]] or Katie Holmes. Both are taller than ''he'' is. Of course, being taller than Tom Cruise isn't exactly that impressive, but still.
