Secret 7 - Thorin Oakenshield (character), The Hobbit (films)

[transcriptanon]

[Picture is Thorin Oakenshield, as portrayed by Richard Armitage, from the film series "The Hobbit". He is a man with light olive skin and long dark hair, a beard and mustache. He is standing in a room next to a candle.]

Whenever I see Thorin/Original Female Character fanfic mentioning the non-Dwarf Original Female Character is "small in stature/small for the race of Men/smaller than Thorin" or a Hobbit (and MOST Thorin/Original Female Character is like that, not to mention full of self-inserts, but that's another story), I can't help but hink the author doesn't like short men in general or, at least, their men being shorter than women.

Is it really so hard to get over the fact that most women would be taller than Thorin? I don't understand why people are so bothered by the size difference and the reversal. There are lots of interesting things you could do with it (not just smut-wise). If only writers used their imagination! I just find it a lost opportunity.

It reminds me of comments from last year when fangirls would go: "Oh, I fantasize about Thorin all the time BUT in my mind he's not short, he's as tall as Richard Armitage LOL!" Are you shipping yourself with Thorin or the actor?
