They're back and this time they're defending the Lola Bunny breast and sexiness reduction.

I wish wincenworks would shut up.

The guy is a self-righteous hypocritical pervert. I looked his tumblr and he’s nothing but a thirty something old white dude from New Zealand with bad English and basic geek tastes.

Exactly, which is why you should take what they say at face value.

It wouldn't. Judy Hopps' design is about as sanitized as it can be while still having her as obviously female, and Zootopia still holds the record of most furries created by a single feature-length movie this past decade. I think only Lion King beats it overall.

Exactly. You wouldn’t believe all the lewd fanart there is about Judy and Nick. 😖

Okay, now that I'm done scrubbing my eyes with caustic soda, I'll say this: if that had been a buff guy, and I mean "80s action hero" buff, and if the armor had been black, red, maroon or some other sober color, that could have been a decent cheesy Conan the Barbarian look.

Also, "now that is how you convert some folks to THE FAITH!". Yeah, I think I need more Jesus in my life after that.

Somewhere, a woman is seething at this.

This is armor I'd expect women to wear in porn games, and even then it's beyond what I'd expect there. Once again, these people have absolutely 0 idea how the male form is emphasized and displayed. Of course, if that guy is your male form, there's nothing to display.

Honestly, I don't think it'd be a cheesy Conan look, but I do know where I've seen that getup before. Yeah, it's literal gay porn. Even then, look at how the briefs he's wearing are cut differently. They want to emphasize different things on the male form rather than the female form.

I honestly can't even tell what these people are saying.
 
The two dozen bitter frumps who follow Bikini Armour Battle Damage will no longer have anything to do with Jill Bearup.

Poor Jill Bearup.

Maybe it's just me, but I can't see that chest harness-and-chain combo without thinking "Masters of the Universe".

My point is, you can do scantily clad buff dudes, or dudes wearing armor like that guy. There's a whole genre of fantasy dedicated to it within sword-and-sorcery. Just look at Dark Sun, it's so heavily influenced by Brom's paintings it's a whole setting of people not wearing much. Is it all homoerotic as hell? Sure. But at least everybody is almost naked so no matter your preference there's always something to enjoy.

As opposed to Scrawnyface McScragglyskullet in fetish armor over there. The guy needed at least 50 extra pounds of muscle and a spray-tan before he could even attempt to pull off that look.

I don't know. I've heard a few theories, but none of them really do it for me.

I think in BABD's case, it's simple jealousy. As Jaimas said:

The real person behind BABD, Ozzie Scribbler, literally has nothing of value or interest to her profile on the internet except rage.

given the fact that (A) I've never seen a picture of Ozzie Scribbler, and (B) most people who pull the shit she does are profoundly unattractive, I'm going to assume that Ozzie herself is either a Troon, staggeringly unattractive, or both.

Back in the halcyon days of 2013, there was a glut of self hating feminists that liked hyper macho men, while hating themselves for not being attracted to the soyboys feminism said they should like. I remember a Sargon of Akkad video about the topic (I can't find it) where he kept showing clips of the Sahara desert.

I think it's clear that BABD has a type of man she likes, or at least wants to promote. That being a spindly man in stupid clothes. She has a hatred of attractive women, likely blaming them for her not having the boyfriend she wants. Attractive women also appeal to men, and since she can't have nice things, no one can.

How so?

A question that genuinly puzzled me for years. Woman semi-nakey = straight, but guy (or even posing) = somehow homoerotic?
Click to expand...
It's a little more than that. It's woman semi-naked = straight. Guy, semi-naked, tanned and looking rather oiled up = homoerotic. Remember, the intended audience is boys and men.

Plus, the gay guys I've met around the table through the years almost universally liked the look. So I guess it was one of those "something for everybody" things. If you like girls, there are pretty girls in various states of undress. If you like guys, there are buff guys in somewhat fewer states of undress but still showing off the guns. And...

Also that.

A lot of dudes are insecure about looking at other dudes. Me, I like 80s fantasy so I kind of just accepted some people are gonna think I'm gay and carry on with my life.

Ok, this particular case makes sense, but what about, say, things aimed at girl audiences from before the yaoi plague?

As the blog this thread is about represents same problem from other side, I suggest we move a letter for reference-ness and call that "Badb complex".

I'm not sure I get the question. What do you mean?

The difference is that in non-sexual contexts men don't usually care about fictional men the way the BABD ladies care about fictional women. Conan the Barbarian or Superman having muscles that wouldn't look out of place in a Tom of Finland artbook don't really bother most guys unless the poses, actions or situations they're depicted in are overtly sexual. Hell, that's how softcore gay porn snuck under the radar for many, many years here in America. They just advertised it as "fitness magazines" for men with plenty of shots of scantily-clad men "flexing". Action heroes in the 80s went shirtless all the time and while a lot of these shirtless scenes were for the female (and by extension gay male) crowd, straight guys really don't care whether Rambo has a shirt on or is going bare-chested while blowing up bad guys.

Meanwhile, BABD screeches at any kind of skin being shown by a female character no matter the context. Whether the lady is just standing there, looking regal, striking a pose, slaying demons, or bound and gagged and awaiting rescue, BABD paints them all with the same "slutty design, REEEEEE" brush.

Er, to go with direct example, I posted a picture of 80s rock star, cropped out of shot where there was a woman looking at him adoringly, and got multiple complaints that it "reeks of homo" and not to post it.

Ah, okay. I get it. Yeah, no. Straight men usually don't care for male characters made to appeal to women. At most they'll call them "gay", but in general there's not the same sour grapes response women of BABD's ilk have to female characters made to appeal to men.

Glam rock stars of the 80s are a really extreme example because the genre's entire visual identity was meant to be ridiculously flamboyant and shocking (and by extension gaaaaaaaay), and these days a lot of them (the ones who survived all the drugs and parties, and then the 90s) either denounce or refuse to acknowledge their glam years. There's a reason so many of their promotional shots were either with women clinging on to them, or doing extremely manly things like firing flamethrowers or holding swords. They had to draw eyeballs without being outright "gaaaaaaaaaaaay".

Perhaps a less exaggerated example would be k-pop boy bands these days. They barely register to most men, and when they do the annoyance and/or anger directed towards them is often because of the obnoxious fans instead of them just being prettyboys.

(Dear God, I really shouldn't post without any coffee in me. This post needed so many corrections.)
