Euphoria aired perhaps its most talked about episode of the entire series on Sunday night, with many fans of the show turning on it after its ‘most disturbing scene yet’ featuring Sydney Sweeney.
The beginning of season 3, episode 5 – titled This Little Piggy – saw the 28-year-old star’s OnlyFans creator character Cassie Howard making X-rated fetish content to build her subscriber base.
Cassie performed all kinds of wild acts in front of the camera, including sucking on her own toes, doing erotic Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) recordings, mailing used panties and mulling farting in jars, but some viewers were left completely disturbed by a different scene.
In the final scene from the nine-minute cold open sequence, Cassie is shown growing to Godzilla-size proportions and terrorizing Los Angeles before going topless, leading many fans to draw parallels to the sexual fetish macrophilia.
Macrophilia is the erotic obsession with exceptionally large women, and the fantasy often centers on being at the mercy of or controlled by a giant figure.
The scene ended with one of Cassie’s subscribers self-pleasuring while watching her content in a high-rise building, just as the giant version of the character appears.

‘Macrophilia?’ one fan wrote, while another said: ‘The giant Cassie montage was super effing annoying and way too long, waste of time.’

Another said: ‘Sydney Sweeney needs to learn to say no. Or her manager needs to. Or her parents. Anyone.’
Other users were not happy about the constant use of fetish content by Sweeney’s character.
A commenter said: ‘Aannnnnd immediate fetish content [weary face emoji] there’s ways to film this stuff without making it something to j*** off to [unamused face emoji] but the camera angles and closeups and everything 100% is why I have an issue with this stuff.
‘There’s a way to show this stuff WITHOUT it being REAL fetish content [rolling eyes emoji]’
Has Euphoria crossed a line by exploiting shock value, or is this just bold storytelling?
Another blasted Euphoria’s creator and showrunner, Sam Levinson, as they wrote: ‘Is this just some giant humiliation kink that Sam has?

They wrote: ‘We are done with Cassie. This is Cassiphoria at this point. Wtf are we watching.’

Keeping the wild content flowing, Cassie channeled a sultry cop, showing off her figure in a skin-tight police uniform.
She also recorded content for those with a humiliation kink, calling one client a ‘fat little f**k’ and asking to see him play with his ‘tiny little penis.’
However, she reached her limit when one client wanted her to ‘fart in a jar’ for $700, telling Maddy, ‘You fart in a jar. He’s not gonna know the difference.’
Notably, her most common request from clients was that they wanted to hear her say their name.
In another eye-popping moment, Maddy walked in to find Cassie passed out on the bed in skimpy pink lingerie, with a buzzing adult toy left turned on nearby.
She smacked her butt to wake her, excitedly revealing that Cassie just hit 50,000 subscribers on OnlyFans.
