    Women have differing tastes. Men on the other hand all like the same.

    Just like many women don’t like extreme muscley figures many men don’t like extreme hourglass figures.

    Not all women are the same. Not all men are the same either. Claiming otherwise is sexist in both cases.

      I feel like your strawman missed the point. No one claimed all men or women are the same, and literally no one said “Women have differing tastes. Men on the other hand all like the same.” (or even tried to make that point)…

        Did I misunderstand the post?

        The point seemed to be that sexualization of men and women is different because not all women like the typical sexualized male man (as per the example given). That being different implies that men do all like the typical sexualized woman. Which is wrong.

        (edit: just realized I did a reverse menandfemales)

    Imo an important point to add is that sexualized characters aren’t inherently bad. It’s only bad when all or nearly all characters are sexualized. I like media with hot dudes, chicks, and everyhting else, but if all characters from 1 group are sexualized, then it gets weird

      There was an Oglaf comic where the aliens noticed that the lobsteroid males looked like lobsters, while the lobsteroid women looked like hot human females in a sexy lobster suit. Same for the bee people, the bear people, the tree people. All the females looked like sexy humans.

      They concluded that they had to team up and kill all the humans.

      I will not tolerate trash talk of Golden Wind

        I guess I should add the caveat that if the point is that they’re supposed to be sexualized, it’s a different situation. I have no idea what the golden wind is, but I assume that’s part of it.

          JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Part 5 is called Golden Wind, set in a highly exaggerated Italy in 2001.

          All of these characters are men:
