What do you miss about L&C of the Past?

[aaltra]

For me, it seems there is less and less really tall and strong womans since Skytriss and Blythe retired. Bunny glamazon does not make video any more. Nicole Bass is out of shape. Karla Nelsen disappears of the scene as Tina Lockwood. The bigger, taller, stronger is the lifter, the lighter, skinnier is the liftee, the best it is for me.

I guess I have mixed feelings.

There was definitely some of the older video material that was more interesting to watch than what most people are trying to make today. Like the original poster said though? I think that's just the nature of things - because it was easier to turn a profit if you had to buy the stuff on VHS tape to see it, as opposed to digital media today where everyone can easily share it around for free. Plus, there's more expectation of getting content for less money on subscription-based web sites.

On the other hand, all of the workout routines like p90x and crossfit, plus competitions like "Tough Mudder" have really made it more mainstream acceptable for women to carry men around or squat them as part of a workout. So stuff you wouldn't ever get a woman to even TRY to do without paying her as a "fetish" thing, 10-15 years ago, they'll happily do (and capture on video) to show everyone, today.

More and more? I'm finding what interests me the most is some of the hardest content to find anywhere .... women showing off their strength by doing "non traditional" lifts in settings outside a gym. Like there's a sample video going around that one producer made with a girl leg pressing a pool table off the ground while several of her friends are sitting on it. Or once in a while, you find videos of women lifting the back end or one side or corner of a car off the ground. Or even something like my ex-wife used to do, where she'd use her big leg muscles to scoot our king size waterbed across the floor in our bedroom. Even the stuff where women crush watermelons between their legs, or the one soccer player gal who deflates a soccer ball the same way.... all of that is the really cool stuff to see, IMO.

Also don't forget Thea Bennington.

You are right about there being less size in general. It is now more acceptable for a female to work out and have some muscle, in fact I think it has become more the standard of what is attractive. However, the ones who are extremely into their physique mostly go towards those Figure Competitions rather than the old school heavyweight Bodybuilding Competitions. It's more now skinny lean and cut, rather than big bulky and massive. These new Crossfit athletes don't exactly have the incredible mass either. The Karla Nelsen's, etc do seem to be a thing of the past. Probably the crack down on anabolic steroids also contributes.

Part of it was the scarcity of it. Plus the girls enjoyed doing it a little more back then. Tasha Welsh and Robin are two for instance that really brought a lot of fun and playfulness to it in their videos that you don't see now.

Don't forget that with new generation of content coming a new generation of L&C fans. Over 50% of visitors on my site are under 30 years old(based on Google Analytics), so they don't catch ages of VHS tapes and so on

Also, in 1990-2000 only in USA and maybe Europe was possible to get this content, f.e. in Russia no one man has selling L&C videos on VHS or DVD's

Before internet I just believed that I was alone in the world to have this strange interest in piggyback rides. The first L&C place I discovered was Liftnet. My best choice was Bonnefemme. However I did not purchase materials, looking just what was available for free.

Recently I looked at some pictures of Bonnefemme but I found they were not as interesting as I believed before. However those pictures did not change. So I changed, not Bonnefemme.

There was a video you will certainly remember. It was a guy who was waking up to go to work. His girl-friend was also waking up. The guy was rude towards the girl. The girl had to carry him when he brushed his teeth in front of the mirror in the bathroom. Then they went outside together, the girl still carrying the guy. The guy took some money from a cash machine, putting one hand on the girl’s eyes in order that she cannot see the secret code. Eventually the two went together to a bus stop and then they parted for the day.

We are the wizards since we know about L&C. The guy who made the video probably ignores a niche such as L&C. But he is smarter than us to represent our own interests. So the art of the muggles is more advanced than the art of the wizards. I will call “no-L&C” the art of the muggles. At his time I am less interested in L&C and more interested in no-L&C.

I posted a few contributions to introduce no-L&C covering issues such as social piggybacking, piggyback ride service, piggyback taxi service, choregraphy, luggage as a third party, cradle with kissing, human furniture and symbolic korean piggy back rides. Human furniture is an interesting sample of cross-fetish interests.

No-L&C is free of limitations so I was forced to mix texts, images and videos on the same messages. Also I had to show together M/F and F/M positions as our Korean masters teach to us.
In this forum, pickmeup9, explains his interests in this way : " I am specifically talking about videos that are not intended as lift and carry, but happen to have occasional lifts in them anyways."

[Stefan999]

I miss mostly the era 2006 to 2011 when we could harvest a lot from YouTube. At this time there came up a lot of videos from "normal" girls messing around with friends occasionally doing lifts. This has disappeared almost fully.

Now there is far more professional L/C content on YouTube available now ut I see it as somewhat monotonous.

The same seems to happen in *ollywood. Less f/m or f/f LC in movies or TV series than 10 or 20 years ago.

Not recognizing the celebrities winds me up. When I look into who it is they aren't talented in any way. Just reality tv stars.

I miss Laplan.de

Yes dendrin, you hit it straight on the head. The playfulness is a lost art. Why don't they enjoy it as much anymore? I give mad props to the video producers of the 90's who brought this type of potential out in the girls. Why are we not able to replicate it today, given the advanced resources and technology that we have. ??
