10->''"D-do I really inspire that sort of frothing desire in the female masses?"''
11-->-- '''Miles Edgeworth''', ''Franchise/AceAttorney''

13A Chick Magnet is a guy who draws girls to him like bears to honey (and if he's not careful, with similar results). He's not TheCasanova or KavorkaMan, but he pulls girls in about as fast as they do, if not ''faster''. Unlike these scoundrels, even when he ''does'' finally realize the feelings of the girls around him, he never tries to take advantage of them. He can charm the pants off any girl, of about any age, without even trying, [[IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn and he usually doesn't]]. [[CluelessChickMagnet He may not know just the right things to say to a girl]], but says them anyway. This usually means he ends up with two or more girls vying for his affections at the same time.
14
15This trope comes with an amount of WishFulfillment for both genders. Although the main title is "Chick Magnet" because MostWritersAreMale, plenty of [[GenderInvertedTrope Gender Inversion]] happens because MostFanficWritersAreFemale. This inversion is called "Dude Magnet".
16
17Overlaps often with the UnluckyEverydude and occasionally UnwantedHarem. {{Chaste Hero}}s and {{Celibate Hero}}es are highly likely to be this. May result in the Magnet invoking BaitAndSwitchSentiment if the Magnet doesn't want to break their hearts, or lose any of them if/when they finally choose the person they really love. Cranking this magnetism up results in EvenTheGuysWantHim[=/=]EvenTheGirlsWantHer, ThePornomancer, ReallyGetsAround, AThreesomeIsHot and ThreeWaySex. If the characters only attain this level of popularity ''after'' they have a girlfriend/boyfriend then MagneticGirlfriend is in effect.
18
19See MrFanservice[=/=]MsFanservice for characters designed to be a magnet for real-world people. Compare CluelessChickMagnet, when the Chick Magnet doesn't even notice the effect he has and TheCharmer, who is seen as charismatic by others, including men. Compare HeadTurningBeauty. Can lead to a LoveDodecahedron. Compare LauncherOfAThousandShips, which is essentially the {{Shipping}} equivalent to this trope.

35[[folder:Advertising]]
36* The subjects of most male body fragrance commercials become this. Such as the guy in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-DcTT_u99o this]] Bod Man Fragrance commercial.
37* Used for the obligatory VisualPun in the Red Rock Cider adds.
38-->"He's over there. The chicks are all over him." ''RevealShot of man covered in baby chickens.''
39[[/folder]]

41[[folder:Comic Strips]]
42* ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' has [[IronWoobie Charlie Brown]], if you think about it. Both [[LovableJock Peppermint Patty]] and [[TheSmartGuy Marcie]] have a crush on him, as does a minor character named Royanne, who threw two baseball games against his team. He [[PuppyLove had a girlfriend]] named Peggy Jean for a while in the 90's, and in some adaptations, [[TheGhost the Little Red-Haired Girl]] will [[ThrowTheDogABone actually notice him]] too.
43** Also Linus, given that he attracted Sally, Truffles, and Lydia.
44* In ''ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}'', Because of his silver tongue, Wimpy certainly doesn't have a hard time wooing the ladies, and will definitely try if he hears they have access to hamburgers. He even has an occasional relationship with Popeye's archenemy, the Sea Hag.
45[[/folder]]
46
47[[folder:Film -- Animation]]
48* ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' even when he wasn't pretending to be a prince was making chicks sigh left and right, going around with no shirt probably helped. In the [[WesternAnimation/AladdinTheSeries TV series]] he gets the interest of [[GreenEyedMonster Sadira]], [[StalkerWithACrush Saleen]], and (initially) [[BigBeautifulWoman Brawnhilda]]. He also mentioned that he dated a ''[[ReallyGetsAround ton]]'' of girls in the past before meeting Jasmine.
49* The villain in ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'', Gaston, has women falling at his feet. He actually seems to be a case of EvenTheGuysWantHim. The only subversion to his seemingly universal appeal is of course Belle.
50* Joaquin from ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'' is popular with the ladies. The Adelita twins certainly like him at the end.
51* Lightning [=McQueen=] in ''WesternAnimation/Cars1'' has a bad daydream in which his rival Chick Hicks wins the Piston Cup, gets the Dinoco sponsorship, and becomes known as the "Chick Magnet," literally.
52* ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'' attracts a horde of female admirers once he becomes famous (i.e. after killing the hydra). At one point, they scale the walls of his mansion, and are ''literally'' fighting over him.
53* Hiccup from ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'', has won the affections of both Astrid and Ruffnut, the former who he started a relationship with.
54%%* Po from ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'' attracts Tigress and Viper (yes, a tiger and snake have the hots for a panda) and even freaking Angelina Jolie expressed her love for how adorable Po was.
55* Disney's ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'' has Tinker Bell, Wendy, Tiger Lily and a gang of mermaids all over him and easily jealous.
56[[/folder]]
57
58[[folder:Film -- Live-Action]]
59* The title character in ''Film/AustinPowersInternationalManOfMystery''. He also has allied female agents falling for him in the other movies.
60* In ''Film/TheCompleatAl'', ''Playgirl'' magazine declares Music/WeirdAlYankovic "Year's Biggest Hunk".
61* ''Film/Babylon2022'': In Jack Conrad's first scene, his current wife demands a divorce just before he enters a fancy party, where he's immediately swarmed by adoring women. He romances several women over the course of the film.
62* ''Film/DriveAwayDolls'': Jamie is shown as quite popular in the first lesbian bar she and Marian meet at. She easily picks up a woman on their way to Florida, then seduces Marian, while she'd earlier cheated on her girlfriend as well.
63* ''Film/GirlsLikeMagic'': When Maggie goes to the LGBT+ bar with Jamie, many women hit on her.
64* As part of his DealWithTheDevil in ''Film/{{Hunk}}'', nerdy Bradley Brinkman gains this ability when he is transformed into the hunky Hunk Golden: seemingly attracting women by the mere act of existing.
65* ''Franchise/JamesBond'', just like his parody above, is a classic chick magnet, thanks to Ian Fleming's WishFulfillment. Calling Bond a ''man whore'' at this point is the understatement of the century. Later Bond movies paint him as more ChivalrousPervert, as in ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', in which he can tell when a woman is ''scared when she has no right to be''.
66* ''Film/ManOfSteel'': With his SamaritanSyndrome and [[{{Hunk}} chiseled good looks]], Clark Kent/Superman is regarded by women as a "guardian angel" rather than a threat. Despite her [[IceQueen aloof]] and [[EmotionlessGirl cold]] demeanour, [[TheDragon Faora]] gives him an [[EatingTheEyeCandy appreciative once over]] during their first meeting and Carrie Ferris is completely DistractedByTheSexy, much to her commanding officer's bemusement.
67* ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'':
68** Tony Stark a.k.a. Film/IronMan following his old man's ways is a well-known womanizer, partly thanks to immense wealth but also due to his roguish charm. Tony is also a subversion, as while he did sleep around with women in his pre-Iron Man days, his stint in a cave with terrorists matured him fast and in a deleted scene he even abandons four horny women at a party to go save the world as Iron Man. Tony also drops the playboy ways to settle down with Pepper Potts, of one the women he actually cares about, but Pepper couldn't handle Tony's superhero requirements, leaving Tony quite depressed. Creator/RobertDowneyJr is never too far from his character either.
69** ''Film/{{Thor}}'', both on Asgard and on Earth, is like Magneto over chicks, with the movies basically treating him as the hottest male in the nine realms, despite the esteemed competition. And even the business minded lab assistant Helen Cho in the 2nd Avengers movie showed no interest in the hunky members of the Avengers, but when talking about the party: ''Will Thor be there?''
70** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'', Howard Stark is the straightforward ladies' man, as shown in his first appearance. Post-procedure Steve was able to catch the attention of a foxy secretary and a starstruck blond due to a combination of his stage celebrity, Greek God physique, courage and NiceGuy attitude. Interestingly enough, Peggy was the only woman who was even slightly interested in him in any sense of the word ''before'' he got the hot body. This leads to an amusing moment where Bucky points out that ''he'' used to be the chick magnet while Steve was the one who had trouble getting girls to notice him, and that it's the other way around now that Steve is a SuperSoldier. [[spoiler:Bucky Barnes' chances with the ladies are even lessened now that Hydra turned him into a ready kill machine.]]
71* In ''Film/MyManGodfrey'', the [[TheJeeves Gentleman butler]] Godfrey gets both daughters of the family and the maid to fall in love with him, without even trying.
72* Jack Sparrow and Will Turner from ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'', without even trying too hard, have every woman from Elizabeth to Tia Dama having the hots for them. A few might argue they might also be attracted to each other, but more in a longtime friends kinda way. But Will settled down with Elizabeth while Jack is still swinging single (though some women have tried to tie him down).
73* ''Film/PootieTang'': For the viewers, he's a KavorkaMan, but none of the women in the film can (or want to) resist him. He rejects their affections until being tricked into losing his magical belt.
74* ''Film/{{Psycho}}'': Throughout the franchise, Norman has been able to charm and attract several women. As a teenager, one girl ''followed'' him into his house, and the other was a woman in her ''[[MrsRobinson thirties]]''. Of course, since he was a SerialKiller with mommy issues it ended badly. [[spoiler:Except for ''Psycho IV'', in which he finally overcomes his mental problems, and marries a nurse.]]
75* James Hunt in biopic ''Film/Rush2013'', who allegedly slept with over 5,000 women in his lifetime.
76* ''Film/{{Stoker}}'': With his effortless charm and eerie good looks, India's uncle, Charlie, manages to attract the affections of several women and girls. India's mother (at her husband's funeral, no less)... India's female classmates... [[BreadEggsMilkSquick India herself]]... [[spoiler:It's revealed that Charlie, while acutely aware of India's mother's infatuation with him and willing to exploit it, has only ever really been interested in India.]]
77* ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' implies in its first act that Roger Rabbit is this. Upon Eddie Valiant mentioning Jessica Rabbit is married to him, Betty Boop comments, "What a lucky girl."
78** Eddie is also this, attracting both Jessica Rabbit, a crazy psycho woman during his visit to Toon Town, and his own girlfriend.
79* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries'':
80** Wolverine; Rogue had a crush on him, Jean flirts with him, Mystique attempted to seduce him, Kayla was his girlfriend, plus he had a fling with Mariko and Gwen (the mob boss' daughter).
81** Magneto; he was romantically involved with Ms. Maximoff and Mystique, and in the AlternateTimeline, he was married to Magda.
82** Iceman; Rogue and Kitty Pryde have fallen for him.
83** ''Film/XMenFirstClass'': Charles Xavier has the attention of Amy (the blond woman with heterochromia--she has a FunnyBackgroundEvent showing her continued interest), his sister figure Raven (who has a crush on him) and Moira (there is a deleted scene where she and Charles are making out after drinking too much champagne, and at the end, they kiss).
84[[/folder]]
85
86[[folder:Music]]
87* The subject of the Carl Perkins song "Everybody's Trying To Be My Baby", [[WaxingLyrical quite fittingly covered by]] Music/GeorgeHarrison of Music/TheBeatles.
88-->''Went out last night, half-past four, fifteen women knockin' on my door...\
89Went out last night, I didn't stay late, 'fore I got home I had nineteen dates...''
90[[/folder]]
91
92[[folder:Myths & Religion]]
93* Diarmuid Ua Duibhne of Myth/CelticMythology (who was Lancer in the aforementioned ''Literature/FateZero'') had this as an actual magical ability -- any woman who looked at his face would instantly fall in love with him. One of these was a woman who caught sight of him at her own wedding party. Her husband-to-be [[MurderTheHypotenuse didn't take it very well]].
94* Adonis of Myth/GreekMythology. So handsome that two goddesses fell in love with him at first sight. Aphrodite took a shine to him when he was ''[[{{Squick}} born]]'' and Persephone fell for him when he was about thirteen. It didn't end well for Adonis -- when he eventually chose [[FirstGirlWins Aphrodite]], [[IfICantHaveYou a furious Persephone told]] Aphrodite's former lover Ares about Aphrodite's new beau. Ares turned into a boar and attacked Adonis while he was out hunting. Since Ares is a jerk, he killed Adonis by [[GroinAttack goring him in the crotch]].
95* Islam's version of Joseph, Yusuf, turned out to be this. He was [[PrettyBoy so pretty and handsome]] according to [[Literature/TheQuran the Qu'ran]] that women were distracted to the point of ''peeling their own fingers instead of the fruits that they held, without any pain felt whatsover'', and this was complicated immensely by the fact that he was also a CelibateHero. How bad did things get, you may ask? ''His own adoptive mother'' had the hots for him, and when she accused him of false adulteries (twice) after Yusuf refused her, he correctly gave his adoptive father evidence that he did not do so. His adoptive father believed him, but he was jailed anyways, partly due to his low-status, partly to further protect his chastity. When he was the slave of Al-Aziz (Potiphar), not only did the guy's wife try to seduce him, and pull a FalseRapeAccusation on him when he turned her down, but when the other women of the city were invited by the wife to see him (because she wanted to show them that she was justified in being attracted to a slave), it resulted in all of ''them'' wanting the poor guy as well. When he turned them down as well, they got pissed, and eventually got him thrown in jail, though on what accusation, the Qu'ran doesn't really say.
96[[/folder]]
97
98[[folder:Pinball]]
99* In ''Pinball/BigBangBar,'' the animated display for "Get Lucky" shows a four-eyed alien who's suddenly peppered with kisses by various females.
100[[/folder]]
101
102[[folder:Podcasts]]
103* The ''Jade Regent'' RPG Actual Play podcasts from Podcast/{{RPGMP3}} feature a weapon called [[NamedWeapons Oathtaker]]. During their travels, the adventurers [[RobbingTheDead stumbled across]] a magical ''tetsubo'' (a [[CarryABigStick big two-handed Japanese studded club]]). Apart from its obvious uses, it can also force people under a [[MagicallyBindingContract Blood Geas]]. It's currently wielded by Harold Shinken, who discovered that the Viking women of the [[GrimUpNorth Linnorm Kingdoms]] were very impressed by the weapon's... [[PhallicWeapon craftsmanship]].
104[[/folder]]
105
106[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
107* Wrestling/TheMiz in the Wrestling/{{WWE}} used to call himself a Chick Magnet, to the point where one of his [[MerchandiseDriven T-shirts]] includes a chick (read: baby bird) being drawn to a horseshoe red-and-white magnet, just in case some people didn't get the gist of his gimmick.
108* [[Wrestling/BryanDanielson Daniel Bryan]] seems to be this in WWE, drawing the WWE Divas to him without even trying (or acting upon it). In one instance, he's got the Bella twins hanging on each arm.
109* And of course, there's Wrestling/CMPunk in RealLife. His known relationships in wrestling include Wrestling/AJLee (his wife), Wrestling/MariaKanellis, Wrestling/BethPhoenix, [[Wrestling/DaffneyUnger Daffney]], Traci Brooks, and Wrestling/{{Lita}}, along with rumored relationships with Wrestling/KellyKelly, Wrestling/MickieJames, and Serena. In fact, the "CM" in his name [[ArtifactTitle originally]] stood for "Chick Magnet." These days it stands for anything Punk wants it to be at the time.
110* Wrestling/RicFlair has a history of women just being drawn to him.
111* [[Wrestling/DonMuraco The Magnificent Muraco]], during the mid 1980s, famously shot several promo videos depicting himself as a man who drew hot, hot, ''hot'', '''''HOT''''' (wolf whistle) young women to him like bees to honey, all while claiming he would either easily beat Wrestling/HulkHogan for the WWF World Heavyweight Championship or crush Ricky "the Dragon" Steamboat.
112[[/folder]]
113
114[[folder:Roleplay]]
115* ''Roleplay/DawnOfANewAgeOldportBlues'':
116** As the local [[AllGirlsWantBadBoys 'bad boy']] and member of a band, Hyeon has a slew of girls crushing on him, including Luna, Jessica, and Patty. On top of that he [[FriendsWithBenefits hooks up]] with Zia in a {{flashforward}}, and was previously in a relationship with Nadine before she [[LastHetRomance realised]] that she was a lesbian.
117** Marko, an overall NiceGuy who exercises regularly to upkeep his [[{{Hunk}} chiseled physique]], is popular with both the girls and [[EvenTheGuysWantHim the boys]], as his fellow gang members Destiny and Kev have both crushed on him.
118* Wren from ''Roleplay/WeAreOurAvatars'' counts as one. As Falken puts it:
119-->"A gravitational force that draws nearly all women in his direction"
120[[/folder]]
121
122[[folder:Visual Novels]]
123* Miles Edgeworth in ''Franchise/AceAttorney'', according to Gumshoe. His response to this is one of shock: ''"D-do I really inspire that sort of frothing desire in the female masses?!"''
124* Yuuto in ''VisualNovel/AseliaTheEternalTheSpiritOfEternitySword'' was popular at his school before ending up in Phantasmorgia, and after that he ends up winning the affections of essentially every named female in the cast.
125* Hiroki in ''VisualNovel/Canvas2'' has seven heroines, an optional sex encounter and numerous students after him. And he's completely unaware.
126* Okazaki Tomoya of ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}''. Ends up with six girls in love with him, and denies that any of them are.
127* While the protagonists of ''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'' are able to win over most of the girls in their classes, they don't exactly apply for this trope in the main story. Canonically, all three have at least one girl interested in them while the rest of the female cast have their own subplots unrelated to them. This trope only applies in the bonus modes, where they're free to pursue most of the girls (and guys) at their leisure, since there's no killing game or other love interests getting in the way.
128** [[VisualNovel/DanganronpaTriggerHappyHavoc Makoto Naegi]] deserves special mention, since he applies the most. Excluding Free Time Events and bonus modes, [[IdolSinger Sayaka Maizono]], [[spoiler: [[VillainousCrush Mukuro Ikusaba]],]] and [[MysteriousWaif Kyoko Kirigiri]] are known to have an interest in him. However, only [[spoiler: Kyoko]] survives long enough to allude to this in-story; the other two are only confirmed by supplemental material.
129* The protagonist of ''VisualNovel/DaughterForDessert'' can date most of the girls at once with no ill effects.
130* In ''VisualNovel/TheFruitOfGrisaia'' had five love interests, his boss and the principal crushing on him plus his sister acting very suspicious in a flashback. In ''VisualNovel/TheLabyrinthOfGrisaia'' we learn he was warned by his sister who knew he'd be popular to be careful with girl's hearts and by the time ''VisualNovel/TheEdenOfGrisaia'' finally rolled around he has all those girls from before plus the pilot Millie, his boss' assistant, an evil terrorist, his dead master and a couple other minor characters, bringing the total to essentially every female character he ever met apart from his mom and one drill sergeant.
131* ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'':
132** Emiya Shirou. He starts the game with at least four girls crushing at or potentially interested in him to some degree or other (Sakura being the most obvious, plus Rin, Ayako and possibly even Taiga), and as the Grail War goes on both Saber and Rider. Though she probably doesn't quite fall for him, even Ilya at least seems to find him charming or interesting in some way (though if it's mostly in the 'big brother' sense), and Caster (a declared man hater) expressed respect for him.
133** In the spinoff ''Manga/FateKaleidLinerPrismaIllya'' Shirou has the unnoticed favours of Illyasviel von Einzbern, her Dark SecretIdentity Kuro (think Illya in Archer fashion), their best friend Miyu and Rin Tohsaka, Sakura Matou and Luvia Edelfeldt. Also, he seems to have a questionably good relationship with CoolBigSis Sella. And Issei seems to be gay for him too, just to top it off.
134** Back in ''stay night'', there's Matou Shinji and Ryuudou Issei, beloved of [[InformedAttractiveness many unnamed, unseen classmates]]. While both have bishounen looks going for them, writer Kinoko Nasu has said that Shinji's popularity is really just because he's an honor roll student and rich, and won't last past high school. Issei, meanwhile, is a celibate monk-in-training and too much of a [[HeManWomanHater gynophobe]] because of his upbringing to acknowledge any female attention he might get.
135* Yuuichi Aizawa from ''VisualNovel/{{Kanon}}'' is often considered the one true capable harem leader; all 5 girls fall in love with him and he even gains the trust of the 3 supporting ones. He does not think of himself as a magnet, nor purposely tries to attract girls, nor ever notices how popular he is with the opposite sex.
136* Hisao Nakai of ''VisualNovel/KatawaShoujo'' has five very good looking women as potential love interest within only three days of arriving at Yamaku. Its a pity that he is there because of his cogential arrythmia.
137* Riki of ''VisualNovel/LittleBusters'' is a marginal example at best: while he's surrounded by girls who like him, only one claims to have had a crush on him from before the beginning of her route, so at best there are only ever two after him at once. Instead, it's just that he's a nice guy and, as a character speculates, because he's cute and so attracts people who want to look after him.
138** Conversely, Kengo and Kyousuke are said to be quite popular with girls, but since neither of them are all that interested in all that it's something of an InformedAbility.
139* ''VisualNovel/MajikoiLoveMeSeriously'' has Cap and Touma, who're both popular enough to have their own fan clubs. However, the series' main protagonist, Yamato, may very well be the king of this trope as he has literally ''dozens'' of potential love interests throughout the series.
140* ''VisualNovel/{{Melody}}'':
141** The protagonist, obviously.
142** Also discussed with Tim. The protagonist says that when the two of them were in school, Tim would actually be the one who got more attention from girls.
143* Kaine from ''VisualNovel/AProfile'', which is funny considering he's not even the protagonist. He actually gets more attention from girls than Masayuki does. [[spoiler:But if it wasn't for the fact that Masayuki hangs around with Miou, a suspected prostitute, he would get even more attention.]]
144* Souji in ''VisualNovel/{{Suika}}'' to the extent that ''random girls walking up to him on the street and kissing him'' is not that strange an occurrence for him.
145* Rin in ''VisualNovel/TickTack'' is noted by both Sage and Ai to be rather good at getting close to women, apparently due to the way he can [[IDidntMeanToTurnYouOn give romantic seeming lines without intending to]] and has no apparent ulterior motives. This allows him to get close to them while Itsuki completely fails at flirting.
146* The ''VisualNovel/TokimekiMemorial'' series has a few of them, with the good-looking and popular Takumi Oosawa, Tooru Sawatari, and Jun Ebisutani in the first game's saga, and Teru Saeki, Katsumi Shiba, and Shota Amachi in ''Girl's Side 2''.
147** In the original ''Tokimeki Memorial'' this is Rei Ijuin's gimmick. On Valentine's Day he has to bring a truck to school to fit all the chocolates he receives. He's actually [[spoiler: A SweetPollyOliver and a winnable girl in the game.]]
148* ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}'': All hail Shiki! Wielder of the Tohno gland! Any female character, and [[{{Crossover}} any potential female protagonist]], ever. The number of females Shiki hasn't charmed to some extent can be counted on one hand.
149* Ayumu from ''VisualNovel/YuminaTheEthereal'' is pretty popular. Apart from the heroines (though only one at a time except maybe Yumina) there are also the girls from the first four chapters, the club leader of the Arabian Dance club and background girls saying he looks pretty cool during his introduction to the school and planning to hit on him.
150[[/folder]]
151
152[[folder:Web Animation]]
153* ''WebAnimation/BentoBanana'': [[spoiler:In an attempt to get Plump to stop rejecting the anime reality, the Director activates a Doki button to reach maximium Doki. This leads to every girl in the school (including the not-so attractive lunch lady) heading towards Plumpy and being overly affectionate towards him.]]
154[[/folder]]
155
156[[folder:Webcomics]]
157* Troy from ''[[Webcomic/BigBreak2019 Big Break (2019)]]''. Almost every woman he meets immediately wants to sleep with him, especially his roommates Cash, Kris and Miko and his landlord Rena.
158* Eldwin from ''Webcomic/TheBugPond''. His friend Flash takes him to party in hopes he would look more eligible to the ladies in comparison. However, Eldwin manages to garner all the attention from the women at the party, much to Flash's chagrin.
159* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'' Elliot has attracted the affections Sarah, Nanase (albeit non-sexually, being at the time a closeted lesbian), Susan, Diane, and Ashley.
160* ''Webcomic/ExistentialComics'': Creator/AlbertCamus is portrayed as not having to lift a finger for attracting women. They simply come to him regardless, which annoys the heck out of Creator/JeanPaulSartre.
161* From ''Funny Farm'', Flink's ability to turn women (and gay men) on is inexplicable, given that he's an [[KavorkaMan anthropomorphic pig]]. Furthermore, he's not doing anything other than standing there and talking (or just standing), and most of the time doesn't think anything of the fact that they're hanging off him. He's TheFool, but he also might be a truly asexual Chick Magnet.
162* El Chupacabre (better known as "Chuy") in ''Webcomic/{{Girly}}'', who initially is under the mistaken impression that he is using his powers for good. Unfortunately, he's also a sort of unintentional KavorkaMan, and his HeelFaceTurn is complicated by the fact that, no matter what he does, any woman he gets near develops a sudden and overpowering attraction to him. And let's not even ''start'' on [[FreakyFridayFlip what happened when everyone got shuffled into different bodies and his girlfriend got his, mojo and all]].
163* In ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'', Jake English is [[InformedAttractiveness apparently]] this. All three of his friends, Jane, Roxy, and Dirk, are attracted to him, and later, [[spoiler:when all 4 of the post-scratch kids go god tier, Jake's Page of Hope outfit has no pants and he is in yellow underwear, and Jane can't help but stare at it.]]
164* In ''Webcomic/LeastICouldDo'', Rayne Summers has this reputation, but it frequently falls into InformedAbility.
165* ''Webcomic/MagickChicks'': Ash is roguishly handsome and is [[LovableRogue such a charmer]], that he's managed to [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/self-involved hook up with Faith]], who's a known lesbian and [[LustObject the hottest girl]] at [[AllGirlSchool Artemis Academy.]] And it's known that [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/stop_teasing they're banging each other.]] Plus, [[spoiler: [[SuperpoweredEvilSide Doompantied]]]] Chloe, Cess, and Laura ('''note:''' a trio of succubi), [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/door-to-door_girls were drawn to his virility]] and made out with him [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/not_lucky_at_all for over an hour.]]
166* Gary of ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' has countless women wanting to kiss him, date him, or get an orgasm from him.
167* Tip in ''Webcomic/SkinHorse'' even when he's [[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/shaenongarrity/skinhorse/series.php?view=archive&chapter=40132 transformed into a different species]] So much so that he even has this effect on lesbian women.
168* In ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'', Riff has no problems attracting would be girlfriends. The real problem is getting him to settle down and marry one. The one time he thought he loved someone, she turned out to be a mole who had recently received orders to assassinate him. And in a more humorous sense: [[http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/020412 "I invented a chick magnet."]] -- Riff. As in, a literal baby chicken magnet.
169* Jellybean from ''Webcomic/StickInTheMud''. Whenever he appears, girls will magically appear too.
170* Gerard from ''Webcomic/WeakHero'', at least back during his band days. In the present he wears his hair in an unflattering bobcut [[spoiler:to hide the burn mark above his eye,]] but in the past it was stylishly slicked back and paired with studded ears and a leather jacket that attracted droves of women to his concerts.

174* ''WebAnimation/{{Anon|Machinima}}'': Tucker and Kyle have all had most female characters thirsting after them. Unfortunately for them, they all seem to be the crazy ones.
175* Devil Boner from WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic. His MrFanservice status was acknowledged in ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad'', where being a feminist (added onto the leather, the eyeliner and the 'bad boy' status) makes both Curiosa and Hyper attracted to him.
176* ''WebVideo/UltraFastPony''. Applejack mentions that her brother Big Macintosh's party was a big hit. There's a brief flashback to Big Mac atop a pile of lovestruck mares, all screaming with happiness.
177-->'''Big Mac:''' Yarr! I be covered in booty!
178* Thunderbird, in the ''Literature/WhateleyUniverse''. He's gotten all the way into his sophomore year at [[SuperheroSchool Whateley Academy]] without noticing that all the girls on his training team, that girl who is always on his case about something, and that girl he thinks of as a 'little sister' are all crushing on him. Now he has Chaka after him too.
179* Duke Devlin of ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries''. If having theme music of ''Music/JustinTimberlake'''s "Sexy Back" whenever he talks isn't enough, he has an appeal that [[EvenTheGuysWantHim even guys notice]]. From those countless fangirls, to the pretty hair, and those ''gorgeous'' green eyes.
180-->'''Duke''': Don't forget my sweet ass.
181* ''WebVideo/VagrantHoliday'' is a world traveler who willingly lives like a homeless person in the nations he visits. In spite (or because) of this, he frequently finds women who follow him around like puppies.

193* ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'':
194** Maria has both Manolo and Joaquin falling for her. And when she returns to San Angel, all the men go '''GAGA''' over her. [[JerkassGod Xibalba]] was even impressed.
195** [[WordOfGod Gutierrez]] has confirmed that it was [[JerkassGod Xibalba]] who fell for La Muerte first, the Candlemaker had a thing for her once, and her old flame El Chamuco (who is now married to her sister, La Noche), still has feelings for her. And during Xibalba's banishment, many Gods attempted to court her.
196* ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe2'': [[FairCop Lucy Wilde]] has three Minions finding her attractive, El Macho appreciating her looks, a couple of guys she passively mentioned going on dates with (that didn't end well) and [[spoiler:eventually Gru falling in love with her.]]
197* ''WesternAnimation/HappyFeet'':
198** Gloria became the most sought mate in Emperorland after [[SheIsAllGrownUp growing into a fully grown emperor penguin.]] Even as a chick it was implied that a few of her other classmates, especially [[ChildhoodFriendRomance Mumble]], had a crush on her.
199** Norma Jean, Mumble's mother, before she mated with Memphis. Granted, her character is modeled after Marilyn Monroe, the RealLife Dude Magnet.
200* Astrid from ''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'', has Hiccup, Snotlout, and Gustav taking interest in her. In the end, she chooses Hiccup.
201* [[{{Deconstruction}} Deconstructed]] with Esmeralda in ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney''. While all the men, including Quasimodo, are attracted to her, she also draws the [[VillainousCrush unwanted attention]] of the BigBad, Frollo.
202* Helen, a.k.a. Elastigirl, in ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles1'' is mentioned in her NSA profile to have been pursued by many top superheroes but would turn them down as she preferred her independence. However, she eventually fell madly in love with superhero Mr. Incredible and married him, having three kids with him after their forced retirement.
203* ''WesternAnimation/{{Megamind}}'': Roxanne Ritchi gets the attention of [[AffablyEvil Megamind]], [[TheCape Metro Man]], and [[PsychopathicManchild Hal]]. She reveals to Megamind that she and Metro Man weren't a couple, and considering the type of person [[{{Yandere}} Hal]] is, she obviously doesn't end up with him; she ultimately ends up with Megamind.
204* [[HeadTurningBeauty Lola]] from ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale''. It's what happens when you're a pretty tigerfish with the face and voice of Creator/AngelinaJolie.
205* [[HeadTurningBeauty Jessica Rabbit]] from ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit''. Eddie and the rest of the human male population are in lust with her, whereas her husband, Roger, is [[NiceGuy madly in love with her.]]

209* ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'': The ending shows that Marty's sister Linda has become this, as she has at least three boyfriends all at once.

Matt Murdock, TheHero and her love interest; Foggy Nelson, Matt's business partner who attempted to give her bedroom eyes; Bullseye, a murderous psychopath whose attraction to her [[AbhorrentAdmirer isn't something she reciprocates]]; and finally, Mark Miller, a father and a former target of hers.

214* ''Film/TheresSomethingAboutMary'' has the titular girl, who is a kind but tomboyish doctor played by Cameron Diaz and has no less than five people obsessed with her. There is an amount of deconstruction in the fact that the majority of the film's CringeComedy comes from said obsessed people, who are every single one a StalkerWithACrush and completely screwed in the head (even Ted, the one who is the OnlySaneMan of the bunch, pined over her for decades) to not mention ruthless in their struggle to be the only one Mary loves. It is mentioned a few times throughout the film (and showcased in full in the end) that Mary is completely sick of her sex appeal attracting only madmen.

230** Zia is a cheerfully sardonic [[TheTease flirt]] who's managed to amass a fair following; Michal, Marko, and (before he [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome disappeared]]) Hans all have crushes on her, a {{flashforward}} shows her in a FriendsWithBenefits situation with Hyeon, and she has UnresolvedSexualTension with her childhood friend Ciro, who reciprocates her crush even if [[IDontWantToRuinOurFriendship he doesn't want to admit it]].
231** Mirielle has a few admirers for the opposite reason of Zia; her [[TheCutie sweet and kind]] personality has drawn the attention of Benjy, Emmanuel, Simon, and (again, before he [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome vanished]]) Eric.

234[[folder:Visual Novels]]
235* Osanai Shouko from ''VisualNovel/AoiShiro'' attracts a lot of girls, up to [[spoiler:having something dangerously close to TwinThreesomeFantasy sex]]. Being an extremely charming Sempai doesn't help, though it's more obvious when the story is related from other characters' point of view.
236** The sort-of sequel ''VisualNovel/AkaiIto'' has Hatou Kei]], who is SupernaturallyDeliciousAndNutritious, so a lot of characters want her as food. Most of them settles somewhere between treating her as blood dispenser and lover.
237* Even outside of their own routes, all six boys of ''VisualNovel/ClockZero'' are in love with the protagonist, Nadeshiko Kurou, who stands out as one of the youngest examples of this trope in otome game history [[note]] If you're wondering, she and most of the boys are all just twelve. Only one of them is a year younger than her, [[spoiler: while another one is secretly fourteen]]. [[/note]] Kaede and Rain also fall for her, and it's mentioned in [[AllThereInTheManual extra materials]] that she received ''many'' confessions and love letters from a lot of boys when she entered middle school and high school after the VN's plot wrapped up.
238* Ayumi Tachibana of the ''VisualNovel/FamicomDetectiveClub'' series is said to have the admiration of the male student body at Ushimitsu High School, the high school she attends, and one of the male passersby you try to talk to [[spoiler:while desperately trying to search for her after she drugged you to look for Tazaki on her own]] regarding Ayumi refers to her as a "cute lil' chickadee" in [[VisualNovel/FamicomDetectiveClubTheGirlWhoStandsBehind the second title]].
239* In ''VisualNovel/KindredSpiritsOnTheRoof''', most of the cast doesn't get any romantic attention apart from their girlfriends, but track team captain Matsuri Amishima is the exception. She gets {{love confession}}s on a regular basis, and while she turns down every one, the fact that she's so popular makes her girlfriend and vice-captain Miyu Inamoto feel insecure.
240* The ''VisualNovel/ShallWeDate'' series features this for the heroine. The amount of guys that pursue her will vary from each route and each novel.
241* In ''VisualNovel/ShinraiBrokenBeyondDespair'', Momoko Mori is rather popular with the opposite sex. Not only does she have a boyfriend, Hiro Shiratake, who pursued her after she performed in the SchoolFestival, but Kotoba Gaikoku has a crush on her [[spoiler:and even goes so far as to stalk her]]. In the good ending, it is revealed that [[spoiler:Momoko's best friend Kamen Eiga]] is also secretly in love with her.

245* ''WebComic/EerieCuties'': Layla is such a hottie that she's both a dude magnet ''and'' [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer a chick magnet]]. She's been the object of affection for the two most sought after guys at her school -- Kade Whiteclaw and [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/the_beauteous_layla_delacroix Diodore Renoir]]-- and [[MistakenForGay the mere thought]] that she might be a lesbian was enough to have [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/the_surprise all the guys in tears]] that they'd no longer have a chance to get with her. At the same time, Brooke [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/the_conceited_scowl secretly nurses unrequited feelings for her]], despite not liking her. A group of girls took Layla to the prom, believing the rumor that she was a lesbian, and [[spoiler:[[WebComic/MagickChicks Faith Abbot]]]] paused long enough from attempting to stake her, [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/something_something_avenger to admire Layla's beauty.]]
246* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'': Jade Harley, just as her genetic father/post-Scratch counterpart Jake is listed above as a Chick Magnet. It's been implied that she and Dave have some kind of thing, and she even dated Davesprite for a while. Karkat and Tavros both have unrequited crushes on her, and Eridan also hits on her (and unlike with Rose, whom he was black-flirting with, his flirting with Jade seems to be red in nature).
247* ''WebComic/MagickChicks'': As far as the girls at Artemis Academy are concerned, Faith Abbot is [[ThePornomancer the hottest girl on campus]] and she has no shortage of [[http://www.eeriecuties.com/strips-ec/it_is_for_realsies willing partners.]] Even Tiffany finds herself having [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/omigawd conflicted feelings towards her]], both in terms of [[FoeRomanceSubtext the moral divide that exist between them]] and because she's straight. Yet, she can no longer deny the attraction, or the fact she [[IfItsYouItsOkay may be wiling to make an exception]] [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/forces_of_darkness for Faith.]]
248* [=DiDi=] of ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' has nigh-supernatural sex appeal (and not ''just'' because of her StatuesqueStunner and BuxomBeautyStandard figure), to and beyond the point of being BlessedWithSuck; as a result, she not only has so many boyfriends she can't keep count, she frequently [[DistractedByTheSexy distracts every male in line of sight]], to the point she's [[{{Anorgasmia}} unable to get an orgasm]] since she's such a SexGoddess all her partners suffer from SpeedSex or JizzedInMyPants when they try sleeping with her.
249* ''Webcomic/WinterBeforeSpring:'' Yura's friend Hari constantly has other girls vying for her attention, and often they don't seem to mind sharing her. Readers like to joke that the entire female body of the school except Yura and Hana are her harem.

253* ''Toys/EverAfterHigh'' has Apple White, the daughter of Snow White. She occasionally has several boys swooning over her.
254* [[Creator/AllisonPregler Lupa]] fends off the advances of WebVideo/ToddInTheShadows and Stickman from ''WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou,'' in addition to [[WebVideo/SuburbanKnights Angry Joe calling her hot, Sage and the Nostalgia Critic offering to kiss her]], [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] implying that he wants to make out with her, [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall 90s Kid]] outright saying he wants to make out with her and WebVideo/DiamandaHagan being [[ItMakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext pregnant with Lupa's baby]]. The Linkara bit has Lupa ask "[[LampshadeHanging Why is everyone in love with me?]]" Parodied in a PreviouslyOn segment on ''WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall'' (in fact, the same one with Diamanda) where Welshy laments that "she got another one. Film Brain is now in love with Obscurus Lupa."
