I mean, it's straightforward but I still find it baffling that apparently so many people will refuse to consume something unless they can fap to the female characters.

Fapping is the only reason to appeal to humans. You do know that, right?

(Anonymous) 2018-05-31 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a reductive explanation, and I also feel like what you're talking about (all female character designs defaulting to maximum sexy, even if they're alien or fantastical) is a subset of the broader question of why things aren't more alien and weird

Like, I don't think it's really surprising that people are generally more interested in things that appeal to contemporary aesthetic sensibilities, as opposed to things that are truly alien and weird and unappealing to contemporary aesthetic sensibilities

If it was just about "appealing to contemporary aesthetic sensibilities," then the male aliens would always be handsome/beautiful/sexy like the female ones. But OP specifically used images of creatures widely mocked for their extreme sexy-ual dimorphism.

I don't fucking know, man. I chose to respond to the words that OP used in their secret. Sorry if that was incorrect.
