The concept:
Some folks can’t wrap their heads around being attracted to people of middle age, plus sizes, non traditional gender presentation, etc
Others cry themselves to sleep because they can’t fornicate with literal monsters and cartoon characters that don’t exist
Does this fictional crush require some convincing and mental gymnastics or do you just need to lower your standards?
Example:
Lady Dimitrescu, giant woman, mega babe, love of my life. Cracking chalk white foundation but otherwise she is the moment (cue Sinead O’Connor’s cover of Nothing Compares 2 U)
Decidedly NOT a “hear me out”
Alcina Dimitrescu’s monster form
An eldritch horror dragon thing made up of tendrils that explode into mouths layered upon mouths like the petals of a rose, all lined with jagged teeth. The only semblance of humanity is her head and torso also made up of tendrils, making her look like a skinless diagram of human musculature
Debatably a “hear me out” because firstly, would😏 and secondly, she is literally designed to be terrifying and upsetting, if not also impressive and interesting
The rules:
No minors or real people
The wilder the character, the better
The focus is primarily on physical appearance, please keep the conversation light and civil and steer away from ableism, racism, bigotry in general, or shaming others
Submissions or asks welcome! If you’d like to be anonymous, send anon asks or you can request to be anonymous in your submission. Otherwise, I will post the poll as is
If there’s multiple versions of a character, please specify. Preferably a picture reference included with submission
If you want to prevent spoilers, please include a spoiler warning in your submission
Votes decide whether a character’s appearance is unconventional enough that being attracted to them warrants elaborate defense (“Okay just hear me out!” or “why they kinda…[hot]?”) Essentially, is this person being attractive a hot take?
NOT smash or pass, would you rather, or FMK, there’s other blogs for that. The assumption here is people do find the proposed characters attractive
I’ll tag characters and their respective media so you can check tags for your favs. But you can still request them again for a recount
FAQ
Is it okay to submit fan art/designs?
•Official art for polls only, please! This can include scrapped concept art. I don’t want fan art submitted without proper credit or permission, nor do I want to sway the polls one way or the other with a specifically more visually appealing design
Fan art and designs can be sent separately as “propaganda” for polls that have already been posted or just for fun. Still with artists’ permission, proper credit, link to their page, etc.
Also nothing TOO too graphic or suggestive
Fan art and concept art can also be submitted as their own poll separate from
Can we submit original characters?
Yes. Original characters will be posted on weekends
MUST BE SUBMITTED WITH A PICTURE
OC art should be the standard design, not more attractive or sexy to sway polls
