I believe it has to do with how she is posed and the framing of it. For example the 2nd to last panel when they focus on her lower body.
That's the article that I was reading.
How about no given their track reccord on anything non striaght and their treatment of it ...
I'd also say the costume of the first one is almost drawn like it's translucant, you can see literally every contour, and there's something about the slow removal of clothing drawn in each panel and the way she's posed that reminds me of a striptease.
They wouldn't write a non straight relationship in the first place
But that's like not attractive at all. I mean maybe it is for some. Is that something you would want?
You don't even need to get that goofy just google for pics of yaoi VN/Dating sim games with actual sex scenes in them and you're golden.
It's objectification - society hasn't been conditioned to view men that are made objects as attractive, it's seen as demeaning and wrong, and kinda a joke. Women being seen as objects are not viewed the same way.
Yeah, the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 9th panels would demonstrate the point they are making without drawing it out.
See i could get behind something like that.
I understand that, i think that poster and me meant different things. I wanted to know what would be considered sexy for male characters. I didn't mean for comparison for the extreme side of how comical things can get for women.
I just want to give you props for your good posts/points today.
Thing is in those games it does makes sense I maen the whole point of the gameplay is to get to date them and have sex with those characters , so their sexualization isn't out of place and doesn't come with zero context .
Sorry that's not what i meant for my question. That's on me, i wanted to know your idea for a sexy male character.
Look at BioWare games, particularly Dragon Age - they are usually pretty good at making sexy male characters for straight women (I'm assuming that's who we mean as I'd argue that due to how women and men are raised and brought up in society, I doubt that even though gay men and straight women are both attracted to men, they are attracted to the exact same traits as they have been in general socialised differently). Reaally, look at any game franchise on tumblr or deviantart, or fanfic on Archive of your own and you can see who women are attracted to.
This just this oh my fucking god this ...
A (male) friend used to mock me mercilessly for that, but I found Vamp in MGS2/4 to be pretty hot, as well as Gabriel Belmont in Lords of Shadow. (Neither are ever objectified though, and their level of sexualization is fairly tame compared to female designs.)
Glad he did because yo Vamp and Gabe are hotties like for real how did he not see this !
It should be noted, since SF5 keeps coming up as an example of "SEE?! HOT MALE CHARACTERS EXIST TOO." Capcom has gone on record to say that they were incredibly surprised by the reaction to Battle damaged Ryu.
Haha. IDK, straight men often think they know what women find hot. I've seen this happen in multiple topics about "sexy men" where a lot of men acted baffled at some women's choices, or their own ideas of what made men "hot" was completely out of sync with what a lot of women preferred. There was even a thread where someone was borderline telling women they were wrong about their picks (lol)...
VOLDO ? Really freaking Voldo ? Even to gay men that are waaay into BDSM shit he's a turn off O_o
Guessing it's hard for men to understand how women may find guys with actual clothes attractive. Don't get me wrong tho, I thought Kratos was hot too in a way.
Ummm, how did i not know about this game. Gonna get it when I'm home.If only you saw the baffled faces of some dudes that I know when they saw all the girls having a big crush on Damien in Dream Daddy , and then be even more baffled when pretty much every gay / bi dude was big into Brian ...
That shit was hilarious .
Damien :

No seriously for real after ladies explained up a bit they were still baffled but the face of the ladies just was enough to convince them that "something was going on here"
If we're talking about his appearnce in Nomad Soul I'd like to forget about the whole game personnaly.
Well he was in MGS 2 too for a looong section of the game . So can't be mad at Platinum for doing it too , if you're gonna be mad be mad at Kojima for doing it first .
Well in the case of MGS 2 , straight dudes reaction around me was pretty much "dude's got his peepee out lol" , and then them asking why I'd change room and go have a smoke on the balcony waiting for that section to be over ...
Yup Dragon Age Inquisition in this case and why am I not surprised to see it's yet another Cullen x Allistair one you found ? XD
Three Kingdoms starts during the yellow turban revolution and although there are female generals of the bandits tribes that were given some spotlight (contrary to chinese made games happening in that same time period) , most of the Warrior Matriarchal tribes were on the side of the yellow turbans, guess who is the day one paid DLC ?

I feel like you kind of answered your own question there. Just because something is objectifying, doesn't mean it's actually attractive in any way. They're exaggerated and over the top to the point where there's nothing left of them beyond the fan-service-ness of it all.
I say this as a bi man: He's way up there. Top 5 at least. The accent doesn't hurt either...
Answer to the spoiler : That on the other ladies didn't pick it up until I pointed it out ...
I'd be down for that too! I like AnimeFeminist but it'd be nice to hear critiques and recommendations about older anime.
He's going to have some serious competition if Konami takes cues from the Netflix show's adaptation of Alucard for the next Castlevania.
This site is my filter for new anime an OT for it would be nice.
