I’m talking like Ursula or the French spider from from James and the giant peach. Don’t give me some conventionally attractive humans (though humans are totally allowed) please.

Personally mine was Goldie from Rock-a-doodle. I probably watched that movie 100 times on VHS as a kid.

      I mean, it depends on what convention you’re attending.

      Like… Are we at the furry convention? In which case, yeah I agree.
      Some of these are pretty weak, but still valid imo because it’s specifically asking for ones from your youth; the start of your freak journey

      Just spill it, you kinky freak, what is it? Fat cartoon animals? Differently-abled Schoolhouse Rock puppets? This is a no-judgment zone (speaking only for myself, mind you).

            Fine, I’ll just quote from the blog hosting that photo (checks notes…catholicfootnotes.com, wtf?):

            The very existence of such a creature raises pressing questions, some practical (life application) and others more scientific or theoretical (as G.K. Chesterton once said, “every question is a theological question”). Life application questions might include: Does this thing swim near the shore? Might I encounter the Blobfish on my next tubing adventure? Would the Blobfish survive in my massive aquarium? More (or less) scientific questions might be: Is that a nose? Is the Blobfish nearing extinction? Does the Blobfish live near the bottom or top of the oceanic food chain? And the question everyone is asking: What’s up with those lips?

        There have been a few in here, but the real “hear me out”s are Few and far between.

        Someone mentioned Hexxus from Fern Gully (a tar monster voiced by Tim Curry), or the Hydra from Hercules.

        I still think it holds true that men’s HMOs are conventionally attractive women (Jessica Rabbit, Tinkerbell, Gadget). Women’s HMOs are things like The Brave Little Toaster; the dog monster from The Thing; and the abstract concept of ennui.

          I’m sure there’s a psychologist that has something to say about the general trends between the genders on this topic.

          Why are women more attracted to abstract things that may not resemble as man at all while most men require that they at least vaguely resemble a woman?

          Who knows.

            Because the patriarchy conditions men to be awful to women, and women to be nice to men. Women are more likely to develop resentment towards men and look elsewhere for their tastes.

              I would argue instead that while patriarchy encourages people to overvalue oversexualized beauty in women, and does encourage men to be dipshits towards them, that would cause women to overvalue kindness and gentleness in their non threatening, masculine related fantasies. Maybe I’m overgeneralizing, but I am thinking of Bandit Heeler, or that fucking toothbrush
