As someone who was the target demographic for the classic tumblr sexymen, I’d like to offer some insight that I never see talked about; basically the whole core of why some characters gained a cult following was the idea that we weren’t supposed to be attracted to them. Like I remember the onceler taking off so hard because everyone was just in pure shock that he wasn’t just a pair of green hands like in the original. People were seeing images from the 2012 movie for the first time and going “omg THAT’S the onceler??” Like, he fit the aesthetics of the time just enough to gain teen girl interest without being an obvious choice for a giant fandom. So it felt sort of scandalous to take these characters that no one would conceive of being sexy conceptually and thirsting after them instead of a character that specifically pandered to teen girls (you know before people started to catch on to the fact that that’s what teen girls liked). And we thrived on that scandal.

I wonder if part of that too is that even though it was seen as weird, people would be more confused than degrading because of it. Like if you liked boy bands or justin beiber people would make fun of them but if you like the onceler those people just laugh at it or are just so confounded they cant say anything. Idk how accurate that is because i dont remember it the best, and people certainly cringed at it but i think it was a bit of a reprieve from all the shit teenage girls get in that sense

She acknowledges this phenomenon was difficult to define as there are multiple outliers, but people know it when they see it; there are still trends that can be used to give a definition that covers most examples though.

Instead of “evil” being one of the criteria, it should be ”edge factor” instead. Sans isn’t evil, he’s in fact probably the most heroic character of the genocide run but if he didn’t have that edge factor at the end of the run he’d just be a goofy skeleton and people probably wouldn’t care about him as much. Same thing with the Once-ler, I mean he’s definitely capitalist garbage but if they’d have just played him straight, people wouldn’t have cared. But once “How Bad Can I Be” happens, his edge factor skyrockets and he reaches that sexyman status. This isn’t really a particularly new phenomena, I’d say someone akin to a Sasuke from Naruto or an Axel from Kingdom Hearts would fit into this sexyman camp as well but as they sort of pre-date Tumblr they don’t get included, even though this is basically the same phenomenon at work.

or perhaps even the concept of most being morally ambiguous; I think without Bill or Alastor being including the conversation. For as long as I can remember there is always been a love for 'villains' but only if they have a sympathetic reason or reasoning for bad actions coming from a morally faulted background (what they are doing is wrong but they have the right intention mindset) often because people love the 'i can fix them' mindset. Once-ler can sorta fit into this because his badness is a contract to his goodness and while they crave that darker, edger side they also want to be able to crack through the capitalistic monster he becomes to redeem that good side. Sans is similar in the fact he is the good guy in nearly every route or at least some form of good but morally can handle things negatively as well as in general having a sadder, emotionally darker side in canon. Pair this with a tough shell that needs to be broken through and boom, you have a romanceable sexyman Sans. I say this ideology does come in with Bill and Alastor but only work in terms of fandom, I mean both are canonly forms of evil that would have no interest in love but to the fandom being able to be the one to break through their evil exterior for something else and be the one thing they care about is partly why they are so loved often trying to twist it into some moral ambiguity into their actions despite it deviating from the source text. Honest, this idea is even found in popular media so I don't think it's as strange as people make it seem and was around on social media well before the sexyman ideals were in place; I'd argue the only difference between these ideas and traditional versions of the troupe is that it steps away from what is conventionally attractive to what was peak attractiveness for the more 'nerdy' ideals seen on Tumblr with the height of superwholock. I mean it's ironic to me for people to start thinking some of those troupes came from nowhere but they hold value to what is intricately popular at the time and what still continues to be.

I feel like the tumblr sexyman has evolved somewhat. Bruno Madrigal is considered the latest tumblr sexyman but he definitely is his own breed of sexyman and has very little in common with Bill, the Onceler, etc. I feel like this type of sexyman is a few evolutions past Sans. Funny, short, dark, not conventionally attractive, glowing green eyes, tortured. Sans and Bruno both have this “weight of expectations” and “potential for evil” commonality as well as a desire for a stress free life. But due to their responsibilities, they can’t ever truly be free. There’s a little more of a conflicted edge to the new tumblr sexyman and a little less “evil for the sake of it”.

I think they’re popular because there’s also the fact that these characters are rebellions against the expected attraction norms women of the past had to deal with. Think of movies over the past decades. The main male protagonists often are either buff painfully-masculine white dudes or more modern comedies have “dad bod” everyday white men. Both are typically seen in boring attire like tshirts and jeans. I think many women are more interested in men who care about their appearance, show their weaknesses, and display more personality through their clothing choices. Art and style go through these periods of rebellion over and over and over. Ex:cubism is rebellion against more “realistic and complex” art styles. It’s a natural thing, and it will eventually lead to other rebellions in art.

The most important qualities for Tumblr to find a character sexy: 1. Must be ChAoTic and qUirKy uWu 2. Must be a villain, antagonist, or at least cold in personality. 3. Must be an obscure character in mainstream media.
