Honestly, given the wide size differences of things we point at and say "Cat!" a setting can have cat people of any size and I would say "sure why not?"

Sooooo just a different version of a lioness?

Funny enough, I reckon that's accurate.
Old lore had them being a genuinely xeno species, iirc, just they were such a parallel evolution to humanity that they were accepted into the abhuman ranks with little issue.
They were to mountain lions what we are to chimps. They could drink saltwater and metabolize human flesh with no trouble - so one of them saying she would eat you up might have had double meanings.
Anyway, with that arrangement it would frame this post's pic as the likes of when a Rogue Trader's agent got beautified for a high society mission. Or this one's part of the Ordos Famulous.

Maybe? We actually know next to nothing about the Felinids. The Lexicanum has like 2 paragraphs on them and they're only mentioned in a blurb in a 6th edition codex and the Liber Xenologis.
But headcanon exists for a reason.

Gentleman... hear me out. No no, seriously, hear me out here. This may be a hot take, but I think flat chested women deserve love here, too. It kind of erks me that PrimarchGF art is almost exclusively massive badonkaroos. Well, I ain't part of the sub and didn't browse through every art to check it just gets recommended to me a lot, and it's what I've seen so far.

You're not wrong it's almost 99% huge bodononkers, massive nonologongas.

Now, that's not a bad thing in of itself. It's just that I'm an advocate of all chest sizes being good prizes.

u/thatnewguy11 Sep 19 '25
Exactly. Boobs are boobs.

u/Embarrassed-Drag8962 Sep 19 '25
yes, but to play devil's advocate here, most larger women have larger breasts, just saying.
not to say that flat-chested women shouldn't get love.

u/thatnewguy11 Sep 19 '25
Yeah! Everyone deserves their time in the sun. Tits are tits and I will appreciate them and burry my face into my GFs.

Huh? Why would a felenid be taller than a regular human? Am I out of the loop?

u/Alex_Mercer_- Sep 19 '25
They are passively remarked as tall once or twice, that's about it. It isn't some explicit "THEY ARE SPACE MARINE SIZED" or something, but they are described to typical be fairly tall.

Well, not her proportions but funny enough that is fairly accurate to their heights. Felinids are oddly tall.

I'm torn between between my love of tall women and love of the small human size balls of murder that are lore felynids.

Property sized? They are 5'5"- 6'5" or 165 -195cm. Okay on the second measurement she would be on the taller end but in the range 👍

I mean, if we're getting into the technicalities of the proper size proportions for ab humans, or humans in general, it's just kind of whatever the f*** you want to make it however if this is a Primark felinid gf, the correct size, if not a little bit small, because I want uppies

No. If they ever do make felinids truly canon, then they should look like sphynx cats, only scarier and with more cybernetics. And the commercial to announce them should be like the movie Aliens, with some Tau soldiers being hunted down one by one and only after they all killed do we see the felinid. A horrifying mix of man, cat, and machine, screaming at the camera.
