There are some women who find that physical trait attractive. Shock and vapours, I know right. But that's humans for you.)

To be clear, this is not about the following: Things which are sexy. Things which are exaggerated. Things which are vibrant. Things which communicate visually in bold ways.

This is about the following: hypersexualization, reducing otherwise interesting characters to sex objects.

If you wanted to make a hypersexualized male, this is maybe a 6/10. Broad shoulders? Okay. Bishi good looks? Check. But other than that? He's a gigantic dude in plate mail with a big sword. If I wanted to go-a-demon-slaying, that's the guy I want to be. Fully clothed, heavily armed, well-protected, and if he's sexy, it's clear his primary purpose isn't to be sexual.

Um. That's not an exaggerated sorceress, like dudebro up there is an exaggerated knight. That's... I'm not even sure what that is. Someone's mommy issues with a staff and a hat? The knight dude gets classic superhero strength poses. The sorceress pose is 100% boob-'n-butt, which is not only anatomically impossible, but completely useless for any combat of any kind. She's at equal risk of falling out of her dress, and falling over.

These are not of a kind.
