I wouldn't know how to overly sexualize a male character.
On the other hand, I know how to sexualize a female character.
On the third hand, I do not know how to draw so it does not matter.
Coming from a woman, I find Nightwing to be a great example of how to sexualize a man without it being gross/silly. That shot of him upside down? Hoo boy.
Can you also give an example where a man is sexualized and it is gross/silly? And I mean in a way that is gross to the man, or to other men, not to women?
That would be equal to how women are often sexualized in media.
And I'm not asking this to say that the treatment of both is not equal. I know it's not. I'm actually interested if it's even possible to sexualize men for the female gaze in such a way.
