A Discussion of sexualised design of male/female characters

Maybe it's just me, I don't find body/facial hair attractive in the slightest lol

Male or female, I'm also not too big on muscles on guys either but I like muscles on girls.

Maybe it's just that I have some weird warped thing where I like effeminate guys and masculine females.
I agree with you, I find body and facial hair somewhat disgusting. In any game I play that allows me to create a character myself(SC, Saint's Row, etc.) I make my created male characters clean shaven and make them have the most youthful and softest face I can, for a more young and innocent look I favor for both the female and male characters I create. I don't see how people can honestly ravage their characters with chest hair and full beards and such....but that's just me.

As for muscle, it's OK as long as it has natural soft form and doesn't make them appear too muscle bound and like a hulk.

It is interesting that in most fighting games male characters usually don't have the body of a well trained martial artists but of a pro bodybuilders and women look like super models.
DOA is an exception for the guys, which definitely could use some muscle definition (not bulk though!) :

...and Street Fighter is an exception for the girls, who have muscles like real martial artists would have (maybe even bordering on bodybuilding woman):

Hayabusa is a strange case... Especially when he's ripped to hell and back and has all those gross arm veins in Ninja Gaiden but looks like that in DOA which NG3 takes place in between DOA4 and DOA5.

Deer(lol) god is that a mod or an actual costume? because that looks terrible... But I think certain females especially should have at least a 4 pack on their stomachs and minute definition on their arms and such especially characters like Hitomi, Mila, Tina, maybe Kokoro and Leifang and especially the ninja since they do the most rigorous training of them all to be able to shoot ki blasts and teleport lol

Remember this mod that was posted some time ago by one of the modders here on Freestepdodge?

Oh, I liked Tina with stomach muscles around the time of DOA2. :)

Lol, you used the exact same gif some months back when we were talking somewhere about that exact same topic.

Nash Grier? XD If it makes you feel any better, I am OK with stubble and 5 o clock shadows, those are actually pretty cool to me. I myself don't grow out a beard though, I feel so weird and stuffy if I even have a little patch of hair on my chin and neck, so I shave it down to the skin once each week if I can. I once even went as far as using my mom's Nair hair remover to get rid of it.(Never doing that again....)

At the end of the day everyone has different preferences so it isn't that big of a deal if some thinks something's attractive or not. ( I think hot Ryus sexy as hell though so that's all that matters. )

So here's something that I'm not sure how I feel about.


Digimon did a batch a while back of new monsters based on Journey to the West.

Gokuwmon and the other guy are standard monkey king and kappa (the latter being a recolor of an existing digimon based on the same thing. Then there's one based on a god who is really straightforward.


However. Three of them are...sexy to kind of absurd levels, in one case feeling kind of blasphemous.

The first is ChoHakkaimon. Based on ChoHakkai the pig monster. They decided on this for that monster design

Then there's Sanzomon. Based off the male monk who made the titular Journey. This is the one I'm not sure how I feel about.

Then there's Kinkakumon one half of the gold and silver brothers. Depicted as a
Yandere oni girl and her younger brother who is a giant mech she rides in.

Their designs make them look more strange to me than actually sexy...

this defines a lot of eastern design choices for me.
The last one kinda gives me a sort of western design vibe, since it doesn't have much cutesy to it, it's just straight up sexy female warrior. The middle one is kinda middle ground, and the first one practically screams eastern design with piggy robot parts and and the kawaii but "sexy" vibe it tries to achieve.

Then again the last one is also a yandere always looking for a man then getting flustered and sending them flying with her club as a sign of affection

That's extreme! XD She definitely doesn't look like any yandere I'm used to. Knifes are one thing, but using a spiked club to show affection? That's original.

Kinkakumon is a rampaging girl that is feared as one of the "Gold and Silver Oni Brothers" alongside its little brother Ginkakumon. Since it's the type to rush headlong into a love affair, it's a romantic Digimon that will begin violently attacking if there's a Digimon it's interested in. In addition, because it is a thoughtless person prone to making silly mistakes and jumping to the wrong conclusion, if it falls in love with its opponent then the misunderstanding will cause a ruckus. Because it has a confident personality but is naive in the ways of love, it strikes the opponent and sends them soaring if it's bashful, and strikes them dolefully if it's snubbed, so no matter how many lives the opponent it likes has, they aren't enough. Its Special Move is swinging its "Shichisei Kanabou" from overhead and pulverizing the whole ground (Kibakusou). Its "Dokidokidokyūn", in which it discharges a high-tension current from its whole body, is an all-purpose technique that excels in offense and defense. Its lightning-speed, surprise kick technique "Raikou Kishū" conceals an electric shock in its foot and has a paralyzing effect on the opponent.
