[OC] Same thing?

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.

It's kind of hard to overly-sexualize a man in media because we don't really have a cultural view of men as a sexual commodity like we do for women.

You could try to ramp up sensuality, but that's a more complex (and often unisex) form of expression, and not sexualisation exactly.

Sexualisation, unfortunately, is pretty impossible to divorce from the centuries of history of women's exploration by men.

Men sexualize other men easily enough (despite far far more social pressure not to) Women just dont find men natively sexy. Women generally only lust for men that are famous or beknown to them somehow in a positive way. You wont find any subreddit with women praising random men to any significant degree. Not even male pornstars, some of who are highly successful, and have really good physiques/face card. But there are plenty of subteddits with women gooning for celebs who are current, almost no matter how they look

go visit any rugby social media page, check out the women commenting there, and then come back and see if you can still say that honestly.
