Why do feminine anime boys seem to be more popular with the girls?

I mean c'mon. As a girl, if a guy looks prettier than me, I get turned off. I want someone the complete opposite. There need to be more romances with bulkier, buffer, hairier anime dudes. But that's just my opinion.

So for the girls who do find the feminine boys to be more attractive, what's the appeal?
I'd go with emobubbles, but someone else already had it, damn bastard.

I can agree with some of the voices. Especially the lower pitched ones. Aizen had the best one

Is it hard to draw body hair and make it look right on an anime character?

Or maybe because high school age boys don't look like 'real men' and romances tend to take place in high schools so it's more realistic to make them appear cute or pretty.

It seems like anime on the whole thinks cute >> hot for character design.
Now you're wondering if there's white text in any of my other posts.

Some women like men with beards and/or chest hair. That's actually a thing.

You just need the right artist.. often you end up in the bara genre to find manly men because gay men can draw attractive masculine men.

Edit: With facial and body hair. Visit the fap-thread if you're curious. Posted plenty of examples recently.

Well to be honest there was no source and my response came primarily from butthurt because I have some chest hair that I am proud of which I most definitely will not wax, shave or whatever.

But from Googling it, there seems to be a preference towards hair from the ladies.

JoJo is still.. "pretty boys" though, just with muscles. When you finally flip the switch to bara they're not so pretty.



Note: I had to check that pic like 10 times to make sure there was no nudity.
