Ok so...Im a Megamind fan and can confirm it is monster fucking combined with the smootheness.
Glad to hear from an expert!
My heart could barely handle that one babe
i don’t care what anyone thinks megamind IS fuckable
Also a Megamind fan I can vouch
Megamind stan here, he just hits a lot of sexyman boxes. Dance moves, witty dialogue, morally grey but in actuality a sweetheart, leather, alien, twink. He's got a lot going for him
as an outsider, Tumblr felt like a place where all the kids that were into drawing in middle school hit puberty and realized no one would arrest them for art crimes
You're pretty much on point
Oh god you put it into words. I hate that this is so accurate but it absolutely is
It’s like that scene from Turning Red where Mei Lin starts drawing her crush and goes feral.
GOES FERAL LMAO
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
The lack of Jack Frost is ridiculous; he was a *phenomenon* on tumblr. His lack of shippable pairings, (by tumblr's "sexyman standards" at the time,) created Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons just so people could ship him with Hiccup. Those that didn't want to ship him with Hiccup shipped him with Elsa. Tumblr was so incredibly horny for the ice twink that they scanned alternate canons just to ship him, and if *that* isn't sexyman behavior I don't know what is.
Shipping him with Pitch Black had a place. I’ve stumbled across the fanfiction on AO3 in the wild
@Muc4ke gOD I JUST REMEMBERED PEOPLE SHIPPED HIM WITH RAPUNZEL -AND- MADE ANNA AND ELSA THEIR KIDS
Someone already mentioned us weirdos shipping Jack with Pitch Black but I gotta add "no one to ship him with" ignores the furries and awakening furries who were REALLY into shipping the dead Twink with the "I'm Not A Furry BUT-" weirdly hot Hugh Jackman Easter Bunny.
Actually a lot of the voice casting in that movie can be summed up with "why is his voice so hot"
I'm confused by "no one to ship him with". He had a very canon ship in the movie, where's the love for the Tooth Fairy?
that really is textbook tumblr sexyman behavior honestly
I remember years ago a Lesbian on Reddit once said that she was somehow attracted to Waluigi, and only Waluigi when it comes to men. She still considered herself a Lesbian due to total disinterest is men otherwise, but she's haunted by this weird part of herself which considers Waluigi the height of sexyness
Waluigi transcends gender.
He/him lesbian waluigi
She is haunted by the truth
Waluigi is fabulous
She found the 1-in-a-million man on the continuum 😂
I like how the onceler fandom had the guts to ship oncest but not the ambition to twinkify the lorax and ship them together.
truly outrageous. i wasn't a tumblr dweller back during the oncler era but if i had been, oncler/lorax would have been my ZONE and i would've been furious nobody else shipped it. now i would ship it ironically, because being an affront to god is my talent and passion, but back then i would have been DEAD serious about it
Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave
Jack Frost, voiced by Chris Pine in the movie Rise of the Guardians was such an archetypical Tumblr sexy man that there was an explosion of Jack Frost fanfic on AO3 _before_ the movie even released. He's an angsty loner with a mysterious tragic backstory and a penchant for mischief. He's a white haired ghost twink. The fandom was huge.
"white haired ghost twink" is possibly the best description of jack frost that i have ever heard.
I think Jack Frost could be judged only in the context of The Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons multifanon thing, or whatever it was called. like he lost a lot of the sexyman energy through the energy put into constructing a whole new canon.
OH FUCK. I was there for the whole jack frost thing. That was very real for a year or two
rotbtd was my first fandom omg i miss those times 😭
HOW could i forget rise of the brave tangled dragons' poster boy
Tumblr sexy men are just the living embodiment of the phrase "Hear me out-" and you can't change my mind😭
Shut
All of my fictional crushes are basically *that* 😭🤚
It's embarrassing at this point.

To me, Cecil from Welcome to Night Vale is THE tumblr sexyman for the simple fact that he has no canonical appearance so the fandom collectively created one for him out of literally nothing, and as you can imagine, most fanart of him depicted him as a tall skinny blonde twink in a purple suit.
how does it feel to be so right after the tumblr sexyman rematch post
good news! you're correct.
but also, modern day tumblr interpretations of cecil are nothing like 2012 interpretations and i'm VERY into it, esp. because i've been seeing a lot of art of him on my dash since cecilsweep. it's nice to be like "hey the tumblr sexyman is this kinda goofy guy who really loves his husband, might be an eldritch abomination, might be a normal dude! we don't know!"
with tattoos
@@dimensionalremi THAT and the fact that I've been seeing a lot more poc Cecil than white Cecil lately
@@dimensionalremi recent cecil fanart is leagues better than 2012-2014 cecil fanart for sure. im really sick of the blonde white twink interpretation so its nice to see more diversity. most of the art i see now is like... hes a POC and often with a dad bod which is nice
Waluigi is basically a tumblr sexy man if you don’t take it very seriously. He’s tall, skinny, handsome in a weird way, morally grey, and makes all sort of wacky poses. But he’s a goofy character who does nothing but play sports and cause mischief, and likes to go Wah.
I feel a need to say this
"Waluigi FUCKS, dude!" - Jacob Andrews
Nintendo could make Waluigi a Tumblr Sexyman if they weren't cowards
YES EXACTLY I would argue that Luigi is also, though maybe he's not quite "evil" enough
I feel like with ur un you might have slight bias
Thanks for the input, Waluigiisthebest2802

i hate that i heard "tumblr sexywomen" and my brain just, on command went to green m&m
hearing a lesbian’s perspective on “sexy men” as a gay man is always so funny because there is so much i could say about these men and you would look at me like i’m crazy (i am)
I want to hear it 👀
…… Go on. Tell the rest of the class what you have to say?
but are you a tumblr gay man?
I'm a cishet straight man, and I still want to hear it. Why anyone would be attracted to men is a bit of a mystery to me, but my wife assures me that she and other people aren't faking it. I acknowledge that reality. And yet... y tho?
Starting to think I might be straight bc what do y’all see in these men
Lady Dimitrescu (tall vampire Resident Evil lady) is ABSOLUTELY a Tumblr sexywoman. She has an entire community dedicated to her on Tumblr and AO3 (she has over 1000 X READER FICS ALONE). So if you were ever to make a Tumblr sexywoman list, she would be on like the first or second layer.
tbf i think lady dimitrescu is just straight up an _internet_ sexywoman
@@wysteria. That she is my friend. That she is.
That's a dangerous door to open, because talking about tumblr sexy woman brings the risk of Strange having to mention Vriska
@@21_yoKai That would be unreasonably funny. I hope she does.
ok but lady dimitrescu is legit attractive and stylish so shes just a hot evil milf people thirst after. that doesnt fit the tumblr sexyperson requirements
i feel like wearing a suit increases your chances of becoming a tumblr sexyman by 70%
Especially an unusual suit
Or suit accessories, particularly dated ones which would be seen as mildly to moderately eccentric in a modern context: Top hats, bowties, monocles, fancy canes, shiny black loafers.
Long coat. Done.
@@princessravendiamond4288 Wouldn't be surprised if someone decided that Slendy was a Sexyman. Long arms to hold you in the dark of the night…
@@ConvincingPeople I'd consider him a Sexyman, albeit far from a popular one anymore
Sam and Dean are not Tumblr Sexymen, but Castiel is. He's done crimes, he's scrungly; lettuce, turtle, etc.
TRUE. and he has a stupid outfit (i love him)
i think kuzco from the emporers new groove was prime sexyman material and i will never understand why he never happened. he was twinky, he had power, he was a bitch, he had some onceler-like attributes in terms of personality, etc
Not white enough at a guess. You might get away with it if it's an East Asian anime character, but most of the time the character has to either be white or a non-human they can characterise or anthropomorphise as white for the kind of intense fixation these tumblr fandoms generate
bucky barnes should definitely be on the tumblr sexyman list. he is a white, darkhaired antihero with a bodycount in the hundreds. widely headcanoned as gay, and fucking captain america. hes one of the most basic ones too. should be up there with Loki, Sherlock, and Kylo Ren
YES HELL YES
YES!!
and draco malfoy!! like hes literally the definition of tumblr sexyman
By this logic Deadpool should have been a tumblr sexyman, plus he is canon lgbt+ rep, but he wasn't. I still sometimes wonder why
My only counterpoint is that he is too traditionally hot for true Tumble Sexyman status.
We have to stop calling it an iceberg and start calling it an inferno. This was 100% a journey through hell.
What's more Tumblr Sexy than the Devil Himself?
The seven layers of hell (or eight idk)
Edit: nine
It’s the ninth circle of hell that’s freezing cold
“And here, Dante, is where sinners are forced to be exposed to their middle school crushes for all eternity”
“The pale, lithe men I understand, but why is that one a skeleton? And a triangle too?”
“Well, they’re in hell for a reason.”
the fact you didn't use "super hell" hurts my soul. you are now sentence to face the plinko, enjoy the heebie jeebies - orb gods
I’m surprised we just skipped over the triple threat that was Deathnote. You had L, Light and Ryuk all battling for the title.
as a middle schooler in the 2010s, i can confirm, jeff the killer was a tumblr sexyman and not just tumblr but also other areas of the internet! such as deviantart. it wasnt too uncommon to look up fanart of creepyasta characters like jeff and find a bunch of anime thirst art with people gushing about it in the comments. the fanon generally went that slenderman owned a huge mansion in the woods where he and a bunch of creepypasta characters lived. smile dog was jeff's dog, ben drowned was jeff's bestie, hoodie and masky were there but i never watched marble hornets so ???, and there was like an antithesis character to jeff named jane the killer and her deal was apparently that she Didnt actually kill people and she made it her lifes goal to get revenge on jeff for killing her parents or something. what i remember most abt jane was people FUCKING HATED her!!! calling her a mary sue and unoriginal and stuff. like absolutely vitriolic. it was wacky! what a time to be a kid
Bruh you just unlocked memories.
There were also a bunch of x readers on Wattpad. I wasn't really into it, but I liked the drawings Wild times to grow up!
I REMEMBER THIS!! honestly i was kind of surprised he was at the bottom because. like, it was impossible to look up creepypasta stuff without seeing teenage girls wanting to get railed by various characters. i would submit Slenderman as a tumblr sexyman
Yeah I was surprised it was so low on the list because I swear the whole Jeff the killer thing was super popular. There was like a bajillion comics and webtoons and character blogs around it too I swear. I remember this because I used to like creepypasta and I’d run into this stuff all the time when looking for like creepy art and stuff
I was is the trenches off gacha life recently, and I can confirm; jeff the killer sexy men is. A thing. Specifically on youtube. Also, so was/is Slenderman sexy men, and Ben Drowned, ect, ect.
There’s a large gap in the musical theatre sexymen here. I would argue for JD from Heathers, Hamilton, and Beetlejuice as morally “grey” weirdos that people have STRONG attachments to
And let us not forget the Original - The Phantom of the OperAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
I don’t think JD counts. Part of the essence of tumblr sexy man is making something that was not meant to be hot hot. JD was absolutely meant to be hot. Goth badboy willing to kill for you? That’s just too basic to be tumblr sexy man. Like he’s adjacent, but I feel like he’s something different
@@rileyrose5166 I also think the fan base of it more determines it more than the sexyman itself. And I think the musical theatre fan base and the superwholock fandom can definitely throw hands.
Hamilton specifically gets too close to the "miku binder jefferson" chaos of musical fandoms. Musicals fandoms, in my experience, tend to lean in projecting oneself onto a character rather than making them into an ideal, unattainable partner.
Ah yes, don't forget Be More Chill's the SQUIP! An AI whose largely defining traits in the show are that it *vaguely* resembles Keanu Reeves and escalates from manipulating people to win our protagonist a more impressive social life into becoming convinced that making a hivemind out of the human race is the most efficient way to help mankind. Gets a new flashier costume change every time he gets more evil. It lives in a hosts brain, talks to just them and projects into their vision, predicts the future, gives perfectly effective advice, can control the body if pressed, and by design decides how to look and behave based on the subconscious will of its host! (Can you imagine if Be More Chill had resurfaced any earlier than 2017?)
"If the Tumblr Sexyman did not exist, the Tumblr User would invent him."

Amazing how Patrick Bateman has men calling him a sigma male and women writing edgy porn. I cant think of another character that gets these kinds of reactions.
i find it so weird cause i could never find someone who hurts other people sexy. especially women and yk. literally a dog and homeless person killer 😭😭
stupid, sexy christian bale
Oh, this is a whole genre of character. There’s a subset of women that find dangerous men REALLY sexy. The Patrick Bateman thing is extreme, I don’t personally fw it and it reeks of internalized misogyny. But yeah, this is a genre of fictional men women obsess over. James Bond, that Cillian Murphy guy from Peaky Blinders, ect. “Men want to be him, women want to be with him” is a common cliche. OFC this goes both ways, which is why men love writing dangerous Women Who Kill in skintight battle armor.
Alex Hirsch never ceases to amaze me. Name me another creator that would make a nasty OC of their own character to combat teens lusting over it

See, THAT'S the kind of crush I really appreciate - it confirms someone's attracted to their charisma and personality, not just because someone drew them as a hot anime boy.
Respect.

No line could ever come close to encapsulating tumblr sexy men than
"You could fix him- or make him worse. You could put him in a terrarium and handfeed him lettuce like a turtle, or you could put him in a Pringles can and shake em-"
I was never on Tumblr, but I think the general reaction to these characters could also be what we're seeing now with the Clussy Craze: "I could fix her but whatever the fuck is wrong with her is honestly way hotter."
Damn, im sitting here realizing that if I had engaged with Tumblr a little more as a middle schooler this would have absolutely been me. Like almost all the Tumblr sexyman criteria fits my general attraction for real people. My boyfriend of 2 years whom I love very much, I think of him is sort of a "I could stick him in a terrarium and feed him lettuce". Like when people ask about why I think hes attractive I am just like "long, smart, sometimes has bad ideas but never bad intentions, face is a little fucked up, I feel like i could throw him pretty far"
If I was your boyfriend I’d feel really weird reading this comment. Does he know that this is your opinion of him?
Spamton G Spamton not even being mentioned is kinda stunning to me. Like even if he didn't get his own slot on the iceberg I figured he'd at least get an aside in relation to Sans. He took over my Tumblr feed unprompted for like, months. (I find him delightful, he's horrid in the best way)
The complete lack of ANY homestuck or FNAF characters on this list is actually shocking. Eridan, the Striders in general, William Afton, Foxy... tumblr sexifies everything.
Yeah
At the very least put afton in like the semi normies tier
Like you're right, but the intricacies and depravity of h*mestuck is so much it's like the eldrich horror trolling the depths beneath the iceberg.

Teya one-liner compilation when
When I was but a youngin with major insecurity issues, a fear of talking to people who weren’t my friends, and a blossoming homsexuality tumblr sexymen were surprisingly comforting.
The fanart was plentiful and so widespread that the normal shame you feel when googling “bill cipher sexy” is nonexistent. And it was a safe way to explore whatever weird sexual fantasies I had whilst still being semi straight. Eventually I grew out of it and am now a full time lesbian, but this brief era of the most heterosexual behavior imaginable haunts me.
oh my GOD i had a "tumblr sexyman" phase as a young child and im a lesbian now too,, wrote doctor x me fics and all... :'))))
there could honestly be a whole tier dedicated to niche onceler rip offs (the warden from superjail, black hat from villainous, alastor from hazbin hotel, etc) it's actually insane how popular he was
_"You could put him in a terrarium and handfeed him lettuce like a turtle, or you could put him in a Pringles can and shake him."_
As a fan of Toby Fox's other (accidental) Tumblr seximan, Spamton, I can confirm his fans either want to tuck him in gently and kiss him goodnight, or throw him in a dumpster and drop it in an acid pit. Sometimes both, it depends on the day.
Spamton wasn't (isn't?) nearly as bad as so many other sexymen I've seen, and honestly thank god for that. I don't think I could have handled another quirky non-human character be sexified into a completely different version of themselves.
@@aeiou_ena I think this was due to UTDR fans having been through this song and dance before, and recognizing the character as sexyman bait. As such they decided to embrace his goofiness and make things that were the complete opposite of the typical sexyman fandom output. However some people went the unironic sexified route anyway.
@@kordeliiius9821 that's true, I'm just glad to see more silly scrunkly man and less sexified man
@@aeiou_ena to be fair i've seen him reach selfcest levels (spamton ex -cest specifically) which is extra ironic since the tailor made sexyman character from UT, mettaton, who was completely eclipsed by sans, is who he body-snatched. sort of a retribution
@@kordeliiius9821 funnily enough Toby said he didn't anticipate the spamton craze at all. i believe he said that he was expecting people to find him weird and dislike him, since his test players said he was 'scary'
The reason there's so many Tumblr sexy men and very few sexy women is that there's nearly no sexy men in real life. I'm bisexual and the ratio of sexy men to sexy women is astonishingly sad. Hetero women have been starved of nutritional sexiness so much that if you imprisoned them and fed them nothing but the leftovers from the lettuce you fed Loki they'd be 80% healthier than they could ever be in the wild.
I'm also bi and thought about this... you're absolutely right lmao. I feel like guys think that all women want Thor so they thrive to be like him while the people on Tumblr actually want Loki.
@@Venya9 hetero guys think taking care of your appearance is for the gays, the ladies and the puppies in grooming salons. Even when they try, they just end up looking exactly as plain and unremarkable as every other John Doe out there. Look up RUclipsrs sincerely talking about male fashion and how to look fashionable as a guy and you'll think you're going insane because there's no difference between before and after.
100%
And you don't have to see the man to be instantly turned off when they speak in the internet too, and that is the realest they can be.
this is actually so real
OMG this is so sad it keeps me up at night. Bisexuals face higher rates of DV and we have to deal with erasure from all sides but at least we are never ever deprived of sexines!
before i was even on tumblr my friend introduced me to creepypastas and specifically jeff the killer, who she thought was hot. i think this set the tone for how i view tumblr sexymen because after that everything else seems so normal.
this unlocked so many repressed memories on me. Specifically the jeff the killer ones. I remember him popping on my page in a twinkilized version so vividly that when i googled him to finall understand what fandom he came from i was SHOCKED
dont make me talk about him being shipped with slenderman, you guys werent there but now i have decided to curse you with this knowledgement
nah because i remember the height of the creepy pasta fandom and it wad WILD
the fact JTK is so far into the depths concerns me beyond belief because there is
so. much. worse.
I feel like Spock was an initial sexyman too, but pre-tumblr by about 40 years. Definitely not a bad boy but defiitely a tall white twink whom you could feed lettuce, women went wild for him in the 60s and he is still insanely popular to this day. Also fits the johnlocked trope with him being shipped with Kirk
I was just about to post this! Spock is like the ur-example
Mirror Universe Spock might fit better?
Spock really is the proto-sexyman. The shipping of him and kirk was essentially the beginning of fandom as we see it today. If star trek was a bigger fandom in 2013 I think tumblr would go wild for him.
Spock had a little moral ambiguity about him. He logical nature led him to come off as cold and unfeeling. Definitely not an anti-hero but not quite your classic hero morality either. McCoy always argued with him about it anyway.
Yes I was going to comment about Mr Spock being a pre-Tumblr sexyman. There's even the official term for falling in love with spock - "spock-shocked"! And like another commenter has already pointed out, there's even mirror spock to fill the criteria of edgy/bad/morally dubious. Also he goes into rut every 7 years 🤣
Surprised you didn't include the invisible guy from Hotel Transylvania. I remember people literally making up what he looked like based off the floating glasses and made him super hot...then the film actually gave him a body and people were PISSED
wasn't that more of a twitter thing?
@@officialdjspookyjim yeah that was definitely twitter-centric, so it couldn't be considered a *tumblr* sexyman
yeah he got the bill cypher type canon design type treatment. I remember accidentally stumbling on to tweets with people absolutely losing it on twitter lmfao
@@officialdjspookyjim still a t website
@@officialdjspookyjim Yes, but I’ve found over my years of fandom exploration and movement that Twitter is extremely connected to Tumblr. More than any two sites are connected without literally coming from the same company, Twitter and Tumblr are intertwined in the funniest ways since we’re all on both even if we only use one. Because of the porn ban and the site having slowly lost popularity, everyone moved to Twitter in the second half of the last decade but kept some aspects of their fandom origins. It’s at least a spiritual successor.
Some of the ships that the sexymen are involved in can be far more cursed than the sexymen themselves. When you find out that people ship Count Olaf with Violet and the Grinch with Cindy Lou, your soul dies a little
Olaf even has a canonical girlfriend who’s an evil girlboss fashionista with literal stiletto heels… and they STILL ship him with the kid
Yup to both the comment and reply
(Eśme is a goddess tho)
I think this is possibly a symptom of them being popular among a really young subset of fandom. I'm sure there are plenty of creeps who ship those things as adults perving on the young girl characters, but I'd wager a fair amount of it is young fans who self-insert with Violet and Cindy Lou a little and haven't yet realised that no, you are not basically an adult because you're a "mature" 10-14 year old, and no, it wouldn't romantic or sexy for a grown man to see you as one. Probably also a few who objectively know this now they _are_ adults, but still have associations from shipping it as a kid or something.
If she was so concerned abt the Patrick Bateman stuff, then the entire Slasher Horror fandom is going to shock the fuck out of her 😭
I'm a little bit surprised that Slender Man wasn't included in this list. He's also a creepypasta, like Jeff the Killer, but he's longer, more mysterious, and always wears a suit and sometimes a black hat. As an added bonus, Slender Man has been shipped with Jeff the Killer and is an eldritch being. I rest my case.
I think it's the lack of face. Facial expressions, especially the sultry smirk with the one eyebrow raised, are a HUGE part of what makes a sexyman sexy.
Any Slendy shippers should look up 'Sympathy for Slenderman' right now, if they haven't watched it already.
@@codex_jinora Although, in fanart, Slenderman is usually given more facial structure and teeth. Tumblr can find a way around the lack of a face. Honestly, if anything, it's gotta be the lack of witty remarks and personality because it doesn't seem like he talks all that much, he just kinda stalks people and instills paranoia.
I was surprised Jeff was so low tbh I thought it was common knowledge that the creepypasta fandom went from horror story fans to uhhhhhhh depravity /hj
I think he also falls under the trope of people making a bunch of different versions of him too. Not sure if it counts since they were meant to be his brothers or whatever, but I remember people making characters like Splendorman, Trenderman, and (REDACTED). Creepypasta fandom was wild, they would literally invent stuff just so they could sexualize it.
i went on a dive down the sexypedia and found a lot of characters who i didn’t expect but probably should have, like lord garmadon from lego ninjago
He checks every box, he would have ended up there eventually
i think i saw greely animal jam on there
I just realized he checks out all the boxes omfg..
Lord garmadon can ****************************** me
It's sad to say but when I think about it... yeaaaaaaah he fits the Tumblr Sexyman tropes
Wheatley came before Onceler, back in late 2011, people would ship Wheatcest. I was deep into the portal fandom at the time, he was Onceler before Onceler. Hundreds of different human wheatleys being shipped together. I promise he was a big deal back in the day.
I'm glad someone else mentioned this, he definitely ascended from the Portal fandom as a whole. I was not even a Portal fan, and I remember somehow having random Wheatley's literally all over my feed for at least 3+ years.
I feel like this was such a phenomenon on Tumblr even within fandoms. I was on Sanders Sides Tumblr for like 2 years and Logan, Remus and ESPECIALLY Janus/Deceit were totally THE fandom sexymen, especially Janus, who was LITERALLY deceit and self-preservation manifested, he had half a snake face, a mysterious cloak and a cool hat, he was suave and sassy, and he was often portrayed as a villain but morally justified in his actions
Like he was one of the first people I thought about when it comes to Tumblr Sexymen, but because it never escaped the TS fandom no one else knows about it
Feeding someone a piece of lettuce in a terrarium like a turtle makes me even more confused about what sexual attraction is like
Oh don't worry, experiencing it is just as confusing.
It's not anything like that, for most people
To be fair, I think that.. fandom impulse is not generally specifically about sexual attraction? I'm part of a little-talked-about side of tumblr shipping fangirl history; i was/am a shipping fangirl and also a lesbian. I deeply loved a lot of tumblr sexymen but I was not necessarily attracted to them!
I think the turtle in a terrarium urge is more akin to the fascination you can sometimes get with a specific character where you just wanna put em in different situations and see what they do. it's obsession, but not necessarily coupled with attraction
glad im not the only confused ace
@@amberbydreamsart5467 you 100% nailed it. I was never attracted to any of the tumblr sexymen, but I was deeply in the fandoms of several. The feeling was a bit like… watching those RUclips videos of the guy with all the ants feeding his colonies. I’m horrified and fascinated and I can’t look away, because I just want to see what those ants do.
Except the ants are tumblr sexymen
Considering people simped for the invisible guy from Hotel Transylvania, it's safe to say the tumblr sexyman can take on any appearance as long as the personality fits - leave it to tumblr artists to give him a sexy rendition
NO FUCKING WAY LMAO
Totally forgot about the time he received a canonical physical form and he was decidedly not sexy and Tumblr threw a fit about it
I had a decent following in the Wheatley sexyman fandom for a bit (unfortunately) and I'm so disappointed that nobody mentions the self-cest. I think most people's idea of the fandom starts and ends with that singular blonde wheatley, primarily shipped with chell and occasionally a humanized core or something, but in the trenches there was a onceler-esc alternate universe wheatley x wheatley subfandom absolutely thriving. An unexamined ecosystem
what i mainly saw was cute fluff innocent wheatley x evil chassis betrayal wheatley
As someone who only made it roughly three years in the creepypasta fandom, I am absolutely horrified to learn Jeff the Killer was your very last, very much doubted addition to this. That means I once waded into dark, toxic waste infested waters and I was practically alone. That is teRRIFYING. That man was EVERYWHERE.
I was genuinely surprised when they put Slenderman in the poll instead of him. But I'm not surprised that he has like, serial killer fan vibes. There was a good portion of kids who were actually convinced he was real. So the vibe is identical.
But the creepypasta fandom was somehow more, wholesome?, like it made everyone into twinks or teenagers, compared to the real serial killer fandoms (which i think is so unhealthy)
My addition to this discussion is that the Narrator from The Stanley Parable is absolutely a tumblr sexyman. He's british, fancy, incredibly white even though he doesn't have a canonical human form, a dilf, dominating, smug, chaotic, edgy and angsty, and when people draw human versions of him, he's always thin and tall. I have no clue if there's a tumblr community dedicated to him, but damn he fits the criteria
thought the same thing too lol
You have my vote. As someone who's in the modern day TSP fandom, I definitely would agree that The Narrator is a tumblr sexyman. I mean, he even comes with a guy to ship with (Stanley). I've heard that he also used to be big, back in the first TSP boom too.
As someone who roleplays The Narrator for the sake of jokes/fourth wall breaks, I can assure you that the number of people who try to make it sexual is shocking. I thought it would be fun and get a laugh in the chatrooms, but instead *people keep trying to fuck.*
I'm not even attracted to men but I definitely see the appeal in the TSP narrator. he's got a good voice
Holy shit yes
If I may present a theory to you all: ‘Snape’ (bad boy who is sad) and ‘Spock’ (smart boy, effeminate) are 2 slightly different breeds of sexyman. Like, Loki is a Snape, Sherlock is more of a Spock. Slightly different vibes imo.
I love this. Kylo Ren, also definitely a Snape. Bad-sad boys.
The Doctor, if I may, is actually more of a manic pixie dream boy from what I've gleaned. Closely related, but not quite under the genus of "sexyman".
I sincerely hope we start categorizing tumblr sexyman by spock and snape subspecies
Spock was the first EVER sexyman. His fans were housewives in the 60's handmaking zines and mailing them to their friends lmao
i feel like that though their origins may be different as soon as a character gets classified as a sexyman they will also eventually be attributed the features of the type of sexyman they're not. For instance snape definitely started out as type 1 badboy but as time went on he also got seen in certain fanworks as pretty effeminate tumblr sexyman.
@@froggdoggs8551 ahh boy do i sure love deranged fangirl culture
I didn’t even blink for most of these but idk why but finding out Count Olaf was a tumblr sexy man threw me off so much
You don't really get it from the movies but penguins of Madagascar very much define the personality of Kawalski the penguin. I can say with certainty it is mainly his voice and smart boy vibes that did it. The best human example I can think of is Kyoya from Ouran Highschool Hostclub. Kawalski is a less sassy, less scary version of Kyoya but just as hot (bar the penguin form).
"Depraved tumblr weirdos wanna make out with this triangle" nearly made me burst out laughing in the washroom at work while somebody else was in there with me. Thank you Strange, you nearly ruined my life
the fact that you were watching this in the bathroom at work??????? epic win
strange is his real name
i feel like a big part of the tumblr sexyman formula that often gets overlooked is that they tend to be on the border of "dangerous" and "totally non-threatening", usually either having a "frail sickly wimp with incredible power" thing going on, or like a "talks a big game but would cry and beg for mercy at the first sign of resistance" sort of vibe
True hotness is being vulnerable
@@SieMiezekatze is that why people wanna fuck The Letter F from The Alphabet now?
"has a god complex but is constantly on the verge of tears" seems to be a big one yeah
Sooooo true
Eggman from Sonic
i quite literally grew up in the creepypasta fandom and the twinkification of any and all characters was just so normal to me LOL its crazy to think i started out in Super Hell and gradually made my way up
I feel like although the Winchester brother's did not fit in the first tier, Castiel belongs there tho. Like he gets a little morally grey and he definitely fits the strange way Tumblr fetishized a male ship with most Tumblr sexy men.
i think sans' inclusion in the tumblr sexyman canon (which he is, inarguably) is a sign that a character does not necessarily need to be morally ambiguous or edgy THEMSELVES so long as there is some darkness related to their character. for miss strange and others who don't know, sans is literally just a lazy guy who likes to hang out and crack jokes, but gets hinted at knowing some of the more esoteric characters in the game & only becomes threatening in order to stop a murderer, which is not very morally ambiguous. this is why i also argue that cecil from wtnv is a tumblr sexyman because he's nice but has darkness SURROUNDING him and was also infinitely redesigned into a lot of sexy white twinks
YES TO CECIL!!!!
I mean it's pretty easy to read into canon Sans as having high-functioning depression. Not sure if that was intentional on Toby Fox's part or not. Still, it's there.
I agree on Cecil! so many people drew him as a pretty thin white dude in good clothes
@@ramppappia it’s funny because the only canonical descriptions of him exclusively describe his clothing and it is horrendous like that man has no fashion sense at all
@@IceFireofVoid Lmao yeah I haven't gotten very far along in the podcast but I'm pretty sure the only outfit of his I've ever heard described was his "best tunic and furry pants"
Dr. Facilier from Princess and the Frog had so many trappings of the Tumblr sexyman but he was largely ignored as far as I know. I'm sure there's a reason why but I can't white put my finger on it.
holy shit you're so right
I wheezed at the end, oh gosh-
Funny thing, King Dice from Cuphead was big on Tumblr and most consider him the first black Tumblr sexyman
good one
He will also be a tumblr sexyman in my heart❤️
The twinky whiteness of human!Bill Ciphers always annoyed me. I always felt like he should be chubby so his silhouette would be a triangle (instead of an inverted triangle like it is if his shoulders are wider than his hips), and giving him a golden brown complexion seems logical just from a character design standpoint. But then again, I don't understand why people would want to make him human in the first place. Fuck the triangle or don't, quit half-assing it.
see i think the issue isn't the twinkification, it's the human shape. like just give the triangle a c🙈ck and be done with it
@@condemnsnah, they're too cowardly for that. Some of them claim to be monster f**kers but humanize the characters way too much. If you ain't looking at Godzilla as is like this 🥵 you ain't a monster f**cker, you just like twinks with maybe some body paint and a few theather props on.
@@condemnsAs a genuine freak I support this. Fuck the triangle!! ⚠️
being chubby would give him a more rounded shape instead of an angular one though. inverted triangle is really the only way to reasonably keep the sharp points with a triangle theme on a human body. shape language and all that. complexion fits as pretty much any shade with a warm base color shifted more towards yellow than red I think.
@@callmecharlie4250make him lanky and skinny, but with wide boney hips. Let's you keep the angular shape language while also making a triangle shape.
Alternatively, the widest damn bell bottom pants you've ever seen.
In my personal Tumblr experience, the version of The Grinch that most frequently was TumblrSexyman'd was the Jim Carrey version. Very much the type you could put in a terrarium.
The thing is I think Raymond is actually the world’s first twitter sexyman. A sexyman for a new era. A remnant of the tumblr sexyman culture of old, but with the modern twist of twitter capitalism. In this essay I will explore how twitter’s brand friendly environment led to the commercialization and sky high price value that became attached to Raymond the business cat from popular video game animal crossing- a phenomenon never seen before on tumblr. And I argue that this phenomenon would have been impossible on tumblr, due to the very advertisement unfriendly nature of the platform. I will also explore how the culture of sponsored posts on twitter created a community that was ready to accept introducing real money to the sexyman formula.
Part one: the trafficking of a cat in a maid dress-
I WANT THIS I NEED THIS I KINDA WANNA WRITE IT IF YOU DON'T??
_fuck_ I try to inject my Internet bullshit into my academic work as much as I can but I don't think there is any way I can slot this into my current topic without first explaining the tumblr sexyman, and fandom culture generally and on tumblr specifically alskdjf
That's not gonna fit in my 550 word max _despite_ it being about the impact of news distribution on social media.... urgh God I just wanna be paid for writing this stuff
@@throughcolouredglasses9300 lmao go ahead my dude, I don’t know nearly enough about economics statistics to actually write something like this. I just feel like there’s something there but I have no idea how to put it into words properly so if you can be my guest 😂
Edit: For what it’s worth though I think an academic dissection of the tumblr sexyman phenomenon and it’s derivatives in online culture would be an extremely entertaining article to read. Tumblr in general is a literal goldmine for sociological study imo
@@HeyItsNovalee It really really is, and luckily i'm in the humanities so I don't need to know economic statistics because other people before me have made the point that capitalism + social media = bad xD I get to just build on the established foundations and use them to support my own claims and analysis.
Hes absolutely a twitter sexyman, him and spamton
@@throughcolouredglasses9300 haha hey fellow humanities student, I’m starting in sept xD
Can't believe you left off Real Actual Human Tumblr Sexyman Franz Kafka. This is basically 1984.
As a person who is in the portal fandom, I know some people keep Wheatley as an orb sometimes.
I've been thinking about this a lot, and I've come to the conclusion that the Babygirl is the opposite counterpart of the Sexyman. Dean Winchester isn't a Sexyman, he's a Babygirl. To give a more modern example, Edward Blackbeard Teach should by all rights be a Sexyman. He has all the requirements. But he's not, he's a Babygirl. Whereas Izzy Hands IS a Sexyman, because he's completely unhinged. I think that's what it comes down to. A Sexyman needs to be unhinged. A Babygirl can be a little softer, a little more normal. But they MUST be attracted or somehow related to the unhinged. Unhinged adjacent.
so what I’m getting from this is… Stanford Pines babygirl, Bill Cipher sexyman
I humbly submit Bruno Madrigal and Paul Dano Riddler as some of the newest men who fall into the sexymen chart
idk who dano riddler is but yes i definitely 100% agree with Bruno lmao omg
@@petrichorbones paul danos portrayl of the riddler from this year's batman.
Tbh every incarnation of the riddler is a tumblr sexyman. He's a character that just -is-.
So true bestie. The sweaty nerdy glasses boy with messy hair was definitely an archetype I foresaw was gonna blow up on the sexyman scene, but I didn’t expect it to be Batman’s Riddler of all characters to get it started lol.
@@petrichorbones The Encanto fandom absolutely considers him a sexyman.
and even more recently, the grabber from the new horror movie, the black phone
Tia i honestly cant believe you forgot about the purple guy from fnaf. He is the worst and also most tumblr esque of all sexymen. Worse than jeff the killer. I am so apalled.
I also believe that castiel from supernatural and bucky barnes are essential to the tumblr sexyman lore.
(Also the comments are right: jack frost, L and light from death note, and nagito komaeda are all integral and very famous sexymen and should have been included).
Bucky Barnes yes, but Cas isn't edgy enough. Rebellious, yes, but edgy? I can't see it.
@The Stonefish He has the trauma and emotional vulnerability to make up for it
I don't think Cas was a sexyman because he didn't break containment all on his own, as far as I remember? I mean, he did by default because all of SuperWhoLock broke containment in itself, but there wasn't/isn't a "Cas fandom" separate enough from the SPN fandom (feel free to correct me if you have expert knowledge, though, hahaha). I agree about Purple Guy and Komaeda though.
i was thinking about micheal afton too
From what I have gleaned from the FNAF fandom, the Purple Guy is several robots inside a human corpse inside a robot suit. And then later all of that goes inside another human. Just a Russian nesting doll of robots and corpses.
“That orbs got it going on”
Yes, yes he does
I think Ingo and Emmet should be somewhere on that iceberg sole the fact that an alarming about of people saw these two characters with bearly any screen time and made an entire community of off them.
I feel like a newly emerging Tumblr sexy man would be Izzy Hands from Our Flag Means Death. He fits a lot of the tropes, but also just really fits the idea of put him in a terrarium and feed him lettuce. He also goes together with Blackbeard/Stede shipping often
I'm sorry, I now have the mental image of him, cramped in a little glass terrarium being force-fed lettuce. Lol
AbsoLUTELY he definitely has that vibe already and I for one embrace it wholeheartedly
You are 100% correct
oh gosh did i get fixated on a TUMBLR SEXY MAN
He is absolutely the next tumblr sexy man! He’s kinda weird-looking, nasty, and pathetic but bc he’s a little guy with good hair people love him
I remember lamenting that I only attracted girls who were into harry potter and astrology, and my friend took me aside to explain the repercussions of being tall, thin, white and well dressed. I could only cry.

@@MoonchildDontCry this is cringe as fuck
anyone remember that invisible guy from hotel transylvania? i remember seeing fan art of him (even tho he was literally invisible)- and then in the the second movie he’s briefly shown, and it turned out he was really unattractive. they were all freaking out ab it i loved it
this is certainly a video. i certainly have so many thoughts about the state of humanity now.
I think Spamton from deltarune is an unconventional tumblr sexyman (and also my favourite). He hasn't left his own fandom, but he is very big within his own. He has the skrunkly, deranged, pathetic, morally ambiguous aspect nailed down. He's also white (literally) and dresses in suits. But his drawn versions vairy wildly from faithful adaptations of his ugly-ass world sprite, to tall lanky twink, to slightly overweight man in his 40s. And all versions are pretty universally adored by Spamton stans.
The man can be stretched in any direction and people will love it
@@merrittanimation7721 Literally. There's someone on insta who has a super deformed horror au Spamton, and I love him dearly.
I dont think i see him as a tumblr sexyman for the sole reason that i havent encountered horny posting of him. He's just a skrunkly for the fandom and i love it
Zamn Toby Fox really can create Sexymen
VERY true, plus it's not uncommon for Spamton to be depicted as some kind of weird bird. Sometimes this extends to the Addisons as a whole
As a Megamind stan for me it's less about his appearance and more about just how loveable his personality is, he's goofy, dark, edgy, and also the.. "i can fix him" type. Except after learning from his actions he decided to fix HIMSELF and ultimately was only a villain because he was forced into the role as a kid. He's an edgy villain who after some growing, became a genuinely good person and that is so so sexy!
wholesome thanks for sharing
Okay but also that goatee
Yes, sure, of course, u-huh...
*sweats in black mamba*
I love his personality!
To put it in laymen’s terms “he’s just a poor little meow meow”
Would argue that Mangus Archives’ Elias and John Sims should’ve been included. The characterization of the two of them as gangly weirdos and morally corrupt and SEXYBOIS was RANCID in the fandom 😂
I think it’s criminal that Draco Malfoy wasn’t mentioned. I mean he’s a founding father to what tumblr sexymen would be, no?
I cried laughing when you said "You could put him in a terrarium and hand feed him lettuce like a turtle!"
The fact that Tumblr Sexymen use the fucking SCP classification is killing me.
Truly the perfect combo
Great now I need to write a tumblr sexy man SCP article
Dr. Alto Clef is a minor Tumblr Sexyman, and the retired SCP admin who created him is aware and extremely amused that he tried to make his author avatar character as sexually unappealing as he could but people still want to bang him anyway.
I fully agree that the penguins of Madagascar fandom had to have existed because I understand why, I am a big fan of those penguins, and have been for a long time, if I had been on the parts of the internet where this fandom was I would have been a part of it, I didn't quite realize how deeply those pieces of fanart would affect me
also I guessed right in the thumbnail that it was Kowalski, he's the most Tumblr sexyman of the penguins
ngl surprised to not see komaeda or alastor here, but honestly good for y'all if you didn't stumble upon their fandoms bc it's a truly scarring experience
As someone who was very involved in tumblr portal fandom, dear fucking lord did people think that orb had it going on. And glados (my circle is like 95% lesbians). At least in my circle the orb was far more popular than the humanized version. Otherwise this video reminded me of my tumblr past. Also yeah tumblr is 80% monsterf*ckers and they need to accept it.
so i only recently played portal and (thankfully) was not aware of any of this back in the day, at least not to the point i remembered it. so let me tell you when i decided to look up fanart i did NOT expect what i saw
What's the consensus on Potato Glados?
Did the Portal musical spur on tumblr sexyman Wheatley or did tumblr sexyman Wheatley make the Portal musical feel like That
lol i first saw a humanized Wheatley on DeviantART and it was from an artist who upon reflection was def into twinks, but mostly based her humanized Wheatley on his actual VA Stephen Merchant so I never thought it was weird he was a tall skinny white dude until i started seeing depictions of people's headcanons for Cecil from Night Vale who as most peeps know got the tumblr sexy man treatment.
the obsession with GLaDOS was so prevalent amongst gamers i felt harried and grew to dislike the game.
but then i crushed on almost every female dark souls character, soooo
A more recent one I'm surprised wasn't on the list was Alastor from the Hazbin Hotel pilot. It's heavily theorised that he was even a purposeful Tumblr Sexyman, which considering Vivziepop first designed him when she was fourteen, it's s not too outlandish.
Fits the stereotype to a T. Demon, killer, fancy, dapper dresser, vomit inducing "classy", bad boy, he has a fucking cane and top hat for God's sake, like so mysterious omg, he's evil but "I can save him", he's a lanky tall boi.
100 percent a product of Tumblr
Not to mention vivzie was a tumblrina back in the day...
Vivziepop's entire library feels like it was just manufactured to get money and fame from obsessive tumblr fans tbh
I find his tumblr sexy manification a bit odd considering he’s aro/ace but you know that’s never stopped them before.
@@em01455 agree,tumblr people have no shame and I say this as a recovered tumblr user
I think Waluigi sexyman status begins in places like deviantart tbh, so pre-tumblr. Also I would like to bring to the table Zacharie from the game OFF. Maybe not as huge as some of these others, but there was definitely a fandom there.
I didn't expect to see Hannibal here I don't know if I'll ever recover from this video
I feel like creepypasta sexymen could be a whole subsection of its own. There was a whole creepypasta fandom akin to the sexyman vibe
It's still there, lurking

Shout out to Spamton Deltarune for being what definitely would have been a Tumblr Sexyman if he was around sooner. But since the culture online shifted over the years he ended up as a TikTok sexyman and a Tumblr funnyman.
Whereas the teens of TikTok thirsted for the creature, Tumblr was more interesed in driving him to McDonald's for a happy meal only to forget him in the ballpit.
Tumblr learned to actually treat their sexy men right
Funnyman Spamton is definitely the more seen on tumblr, but rest assured the sexyman spamton community is thriving some where in the dark corner.
i hate to say it but there is a LOT of spamton sexyman content on tumblr and its all some of the most depraved shit ive ever seen
@@chysandzain7303 there's always a corner for every conceivable sexyman!
he was a tik tok thirst trap and a tumblr pet hamster
NPH’s depiction of Count Olaf is devastatingly disgusting.
I get why Dean and Sam don't make the grade (especially early on), but I want to present Cas and Crowley for consideration. Cas especially fits. I would say second tier. Weird outfit, morally ambiguous, definitly a trauma baby and shipped with Dean. Crowley has the outfit, the british accent, the sexually ambiguousness and (definitely my favorite trope) villain turned awkward friend. We can kick Wincest people right out, but Destiel has a chaotic mind of its own. I would make the argument that it is foundational to the Tumblr golden age and should not be left out. I admit that I am a devout Superwholock shipper and trope collecting goblin so I'm definitely biased and proud of it.
As someone who has gotten back into Tumblr recently, I feel like the tumblr sexyman is still there, but changed, somehow? Like, it’s the same energy, but being channeled toward skrunglier men now, as opposed to put-together twinks and characters who can be modified into put-together twinks. I feel like the hype around Bruno from Encanto and Robert Pattinson’s Batman iteration are good examples of the new vibe, if that makes sense.
Tumblr sexymen walked so poor little meow meows could run
Welp that explains that
Omg Bruno is totally a sexyman! My ex friend used to be almost disturbingly obsessed with a lot of the characters on the list, and last I heard Bruno was her latest obsession.
_BRUNO MADRIGAL IS A TUMBLR SEXYMAN_
Listen I'm generally a simp for Robert Pattinson, not just his batman. Tbh I was laughing the whole movie because of his hair i was so taken aback for it lmao
Sam and Dean are definitely not Tumblr sexy men but I would argue that Castiel is. His fashion is just silly enough and he isn't technically human so...
I think Tumblr goes equally feral for Castiel and Misha Collins himself.
I feel like Cas or Crowley would be the Tumblr Sexy men of supernatural tbh
exactly what I was thinking lol
This is what I wrote too, he fits the trope with him being conventionally attractive but still a little different looking enough to be in the tumblr sexyman category lol
This was going to be my comment, based on a decade+ on tumblr and my viewing of three (3) Supernatural episodes, one of which was the animated scooby doo thing.
As a committed fan of “Half Life: VR but the AI is Self Aware”, gotta say Benrey is my favorite tumblr sexyman
13:12 "Nobody is like 'wow, that orb has got it going on'"
Oh you sweet summer child
I once called the grinch "The Onceler's fursona" and I am truly sorry
THIS IS THE BEST COMMENT IVE SEEN ALL DAY 😭😭😭
No no, don't be 🤣
you're right but i hate that you're right
I am absolutely devastated that Cecil Palmer wasn't on here. Welcome to Night Vale was a pillar of 2012 tumblr, he has no canon design so people made him tall, white, and with bleached roots, everyone drew him in a tie and sweater vest, he does things of questionable morality, and he's gay.
Ah good lord do not remind me of those dark times
Ah yes, I remember purple-and-gray third-eye Cecil from my high school cosplay days
HOW COULD I HAVE FORGOTTEN HIM 😭😭😭
Every artist drew him with conventional sexyman clothing despite Cecil describing his own outfits. They were always extremely weird things that would probably clash.
I didn't listen to wtnv until like 2020 but I immediately thought "oh, this dude was DEFINITELY a tumblr sexyman at some point".
It's so funny to me as a person who had an incredibly long creepypasta phase that people *wouldn't* be aware of the sexy-ification of various creepypastas
5:25 as a doctor who fan I'd like to make a correction that the doctor does actually check off the moral ambiguity box. If you've seen certain episodes (*cough* waters of mars *cough*) and know a bit of his history involving the daleks and his home planet it's easy to see that he's definitely not all good
RIGHT?! I couldn't believe she said he wasn't morally ambiguous?! Lol
