Am I the only one who didn't get the appeal of ahegao faces. I seriously don't get why it's even popular in the first.

It's porn, so is basically fetishism, there's no way this could be discussed objectively. People just get turned on.

"Why ahegao faces is even popular?"
I can not tell the exact reason why this thing is popular, but a lot of people probably fap to those faces.

...That's an O-face. Just call it an O-face. You don't need a stupid new term when there's already an existing stupid term for it. It's an O-face.

Because they're insanely hot? Nothing finishes a doujin quite like an ahegao, except maybe

Maybe both. It takes real taste to be able to appreciate hentai and doujins objectively.

It's an obvious fetish of a man dominating a woman who has lost control and got "destroyed" by him.
This triggers sick fantasies in some weak and pathetic jerks who wish to be powerful and useful.
So, basically it's bullshit. Though funny sometimes

Neither from UK nor USA too. I can't see you point. MAL is a site that focuses on anime/manga culture. It's more likely for people to know a term that comes from Japanese. A melting pot let's say.

Wishfullfilment maybe? Being so good in bed that the girl makes such faces is probably very good at boosting the ego and masculinity of the viewer. Imagine being soo good in bed every girl you lay with basicly looses control of her facial muscles. Makes you feel like a god doesnt it?

simple, it depicts a female in a sexual ecstatic state, the face expresses these emotions, which triggers a biological impulse in many males.

Nothing's a bigger turn-off than a messed up face. (ahegao)

It's the worst kind of porn - an awful troll that causes limp noodle just before the viewer can climax.

Pretty much sums up why I don't watch hentai. It's not good for fapping purposes, however, it's hilarious to listen to so I often end up sharing some scenes with my pals.
Yeah, I've found that porn in general is not great for sexual arousal but better for unintentional awkward comedy.

It's not a new term, it's actually been used longer than the term "O-face". Ahegao was used to refer to facial expression in Japanese pornography (specifically in magazines) as early as the late 80s or early 90s. Where O-face became popularized by Office space in 99.

I think alot of the Ahegao face popularity comes from the meme crowd, not necessarily just hardcore weebs. (like myself) The Ahagao face is blatantly sexual and depicts sexual climax, but it is still PG rated and can be posted anywhere, so its great for a raunchy if not offensive profile picture or for FB safe memes.

Also, some guys in the JDM car scene like to slap hentai/ahagao stickers on their cars to poke a bit of fun at the Japanese Itasha cars.

well, same. it just makes me uncomfortable --but i think it has to do with sexual (visual) stimulation, right? mostly because it's become a meme but also because men (mostly, not saying girls don't do it as well, even though it's a fairly smaller amount) like to jack off to it (?)

because the industry sucks and its sole purpose is to objectify women in any way they can.... i think you'll only find ahegao in male characters if you look for doujinshi and even then you'll have to really search. it's "common sense" to agree that the female body and female pleasure is to be all out and exposed and made fun of, while males just gotta have it and that's that, no questions asked.

it's hentai. Are you really complaining about equality in fucking hentai? You should probably be more concerned with the amount of rape that becomes consensual half-way through - or after a prolonged period of blackmailed sex. It's meant to fulfil the sexual fantasies of the readers - most of which are male.

i'm not complaining about equality, i just answered a question with what i think, what's the issue there?? and hell yeah, i despise the whole industry, it's garbage and it's not something people should look after, but guess what?? they do and it's not gonna change anytime soon, so let me make my points and share my opinions on why it's so stupid. yeah, it's supposed to fulfill sexual desires and that's what's fucking wrong with it, i never said it wasn't --and i stated in earlier, it's fetishism and it's disgusting that many men actually enjoy it to the point of jacking off and fantasizing about it. it's not about equality, it's about abuse and degradation and that is most definitely NOT okay.
