7This is a trope about when an installment becomes more risqué in nature. Whether by giving characters more skimpier outfits, adding in sex scenes or otherwise making things more steamy between the main couple, things in this installment are much more sexual than the one that came before it.
8
9There are a variety of ways for this trope to be put in place. Sometimes the writers want to add more sexier scenes in their work for the sake of {{Fanservice}}, other times they want to explore sex-based themes in a broader sense than simply for titillation. Others want to make this installment suited for an older audience so they add them in.

31* The freaking ''Sun Maid Raisin Girl'' has gotten this treatment. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJZcFq8ige8 Seriously, see for yourself.]]
32* The Wendy's logo depicts a little girl who looks like Literature/PippiLongstocking. The commercials portray her as a young adult.
33* Viagra commercials in the late 90s consisted of former US Senator Bob Dole telling men that ED was a perfectly normal condition and there was no reason to be ashamed of having it. Twenty years later, they consist of a variety of hot, flirtatious women in suggestive outfits.
34* Some of Creator/{{YTV}}'s advertisements for its shortlived teen-oriented block "Limbo" used this trope, compared to the normal child and family-oriented programming on the lineup. An ad for ''Lucy Sullivan is Getting Married'' tells the viewer to get past the British accents in order to see "lots of skin" while focusing on shirtless guys and hookup scenes throughout, while another ad for ''Series/OppositeSex'' calls the male protagonist a "lucky bastard" (bleeped) as we see him surrounded by scantily-clad girls in a changing room.
35[[/folder]]
36
37[[folder:Arts]]
38* As proof that this Trope is much OlderThanTheyThink, artwork depicting scenes in Myth/ClassicalMythology is often used as an excuse for nude art, even if this would be completely out of character for the subject being portrayed.
39** One very common "offender" is the Judgment of Paris. From the Middle Ages onward, all three goddesses are typically depicted nude in art, despite the fact that they were not trying to seduce Paris, and it only fits Aphrodite's character. (The opportunity for three female nudes was a large part of the attraction of the subject.)
40** The Three Graces are subject to this too more often than not; Renaissance masters like Raphael and Charles-André van Loo have featured them in nude art, and the trend goes back even further, as [[OlderThanFeudalism explained by Greek poet Pausanias]]:
41--->"Who it was who first represented the Graces naked, whether in {{sculpture|s}} or in {{painting|s}}, I could not discover. During the earlier period, certainly, sculptors and painters alike represented them draped. At Smyrna, for instance, in the sanctuary of the Nemeses, above the images have been dedicated Graces of gold, the work of Bupalus; and in the Music Hall in the same city, there is a portrait of a Grace, painted by Apelles. At Pergamus likewise, in the chamber of Attalus, are other images of Graces made by Bupalus; and near what is called the Pythium there is a portrait of Graces, painted by Pythagoras the Parian. Socrates too, son of Sophroniscus, made images of Graces for the Athenians, which are before the entrance to the Acropolis. Also, Socrates was known to have destroyed his own work as he progressed deeper into his life of philosophy and search of the conscious due to his iconoclastic attitude towards art and the like. All these are alike draped; but later artists, I do not know the reason, have changed the way of portraying them. Certainly, today {{sculptors}} and {{painters}} represent Graces naked."
42* ''Art/{{Olympia}}'': Compared to other portrayals of the RecliningVenus, ''Olympia'' is very sexualized and the character is very aware of it. That's why this painting was considered scandalous in its time because of the naked woman's confrontational gaze and the details suggesting she is a prostitute --such as her bracelet, pearl earrings, and the orchid in her hair.

45[[folder:Comic Books]]
46* In addition to making everyone YoungerAndHipper, ComicBook/UltimateMarvel did this for almost all of its female characters, not to mention how everyone ReallyGetsAround and there are far more sexually charged storylines.
47* Creator/{{Wildstorm}}'s [[https://paulsebert.tumblr.com/post/174421869849/worst-comics-of-the-2000s-thundercats-the-return horribly misjudged]] ''WesternAnimation/{{ThunderCats|1985}}'' revival, which included amongst other things, an aged-up (but still in their teens) Wilykit and Wilykat ''becoming Mumm-Ra's sex slaves''. Cheetara was chained provocatively to a wall in her first appearance, with the insinuation she'd been [[{{Squick}} raped by the mutants]].
48* Pictured above is Zenescope Entertainment's ''ComicBook/GrimmFairyTales'', with the comic in question obviously centering around ''Literature/LittleRedRidingHood'' (although she isn't so little anymore). The wolf actually turns out to be the [[{{Squick}} former]] [[InterspeciesRomance lover]] of the teenaged Red. [[spoiler:In the end, this story is merely a teenager's DreamSequence based on her fight with a boyfriend who wanted to have sex with her.]]
49** As a whole, ''Grimm Fairy Tales'' is a subversion -- sure, all covers feature attractive women in fetishized costumes of fairy tales characters, or with those characters, but stories themselves are mostly modern versions of fairy tales, rather DarkerAndEdgier than Hotter and Sexier.
50* Comic book artist J. Scott Campbell has been producing [[http://j-scott-campbell.deviantart.com/gallery/26565897 "Fairy Tale Fantasies,"]] an annual pin-up calendar series that features female characters from various Disney/Mother Goose fairy tales in decidedly skimpier outfits and sporting more [[MostCommonSuperPower comic book-proportioned]] figures.
51* Happened to the second ComicBook/WonderGirl, once she moved from ''ComicBook/YoungJustice'' to ComicBook/TeenTitans. [[http://www.quietmuse.net/images/wgirl/cassie.jpg This]] is how she was looking in her Young Justice days. [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/97/f5/d0/97f5d02f77b04c02d2e50bb0584b1351.jpg This]] is her current look.
52* Done in ''Green Lantern Corps''. Sheriff Mardin was originally an overweight woman in a trenchcoat. In the ''ComicBook/New52'', she's a lot skinnier and is now a [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Purple-Skinned Space Babe]] and wears a tank top.
53* Speaking of the ''ComicBook/New52'':
54** The sexuality of traditional [[MsFanservice Ms. Fanservices]] ComicBook/{{Catwoman}} and ComicBook/{{Starfire}} in ''ComicBook/RedHoodAndTheOutlaws'' have been ramped up significantly. Notably, ComicBook/AmandaWaller also had a major redesign to slim her down when she has ''never'' been a particularly attractive woman (in either looks or personality). DC later toned down Starfire into something more similar to her portrayal in the ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'' cartoon in her ''ComicBook/Starfire2015'' solo series.
55** Similar to Waller, Ma Hunkel[=/=]ComicBook/RedTornado I has apparently also been revised to no longer be a slightly overweight middle-aged housewife/grandmother, with her cross-dressing theme seemingly removed. Though, she's apparently now a composite of Ma Hunkel and her granddaughter Maxine, better known as Cyclone, who didn't share Ma's appearance.
56** The male characters are getting it a little, too. Jay Garrick and Alan Scott, as part of the YoungerAndHipper reboot in ''ComicBook/Earth2'', both went from senior heroes to young and very attractive (as drawn by Nicola Scott, who gives the readers plenty of FemaleGaze). Superman's facial features have been reworked, making him look more youthful and cute.
57** Slightly downplayed with ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'', whose LeotardOfPower shows a lot of leg but removes her {{Panty Shot}}s.
58** Averted with ComicBook/PowerGirl who for about a year had a [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rsz_powergirlnew52_6447.jpg much more modest costume]] that even lacked her infamous "[[CleavageWindow boob window]]"; and the Star Sapphires in the ''Franchise/GreenLantern'' books, whose new costumes aren't nearly as {{Stripperiffic}} as the old ones.
59** ComicBook/HarleyQuinn was always a bit fanservicey considering she was a PerkyFemaleMinion; however, most of the time she was completely covered up. She rarely appeared without her harlequin costume, her face coated in makeup, or even her hat off. ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'' started the trend of Harley without the hat and in skimpy outfits. The New 52 embraced this and got rid of her traditional outfit for GirlishPigtails 100% of the time and casual clothing (often with a [[BareMidriffsAreFeminine midriff baring]] shirt and short shorts) instead of a costume. Adaptations such as ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'', ''VideoGame/InjusticeGodsAmongUs'', and ''WebAnimation/DCSuperheroGirls'' use the more fanservicey outfit, however ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueAction'' uses her classic clothes.
60* In the '80s, Peter Riverstone did this with Literature/TheBible stories where ''every'' notable woman has an ImpossibleHourglassFigure that would shame [[Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit Jessica Rabbit]] from their perfectly cherubic faces, perfectly set triple-Ds, ''washboard abs,'' a matching ass and the long legs of a runway model that don't even need heels to stand that way compared to every notable man being [[HeroicBuild built like Superman]] with a permanent RagingStiffie, which in Holophernes's case could literally [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impale a woman to death!]] Stories like [[OffWithHerHead "Judith and Holophernes"]] and [[InformedAttractiveness "Thamara and Judah"]] would be certainly memorable this way.
61* Dynamite Entertainment has made a comic adaptation of the ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'' novels, which is by far more similar to the book than [[Series/GameofThrones the TV adaptation]]. Particularly, comic Catelyn is younger and hotter than her TV version.
62* ''ComicBook/ArchieComics'' usually portrays the characters in a chaste manner (with the main trio explicitly being celibate according to a 70s comic, and sexuality beyond a PG manner being rare). In the 2010s they began drifting away from this image:
63** ''ComicBook/ArchieVsPredator'' is a parody of slasher films. It features all the overly sexual tendencies that slasher works are known for.
64** ''ComicBook/AfterlifeWithArchie'' uses this mostly for FanDisservice. For example, the twins Cheryl and Jason Blossom are involved in {{twincest}}, though whether it's sexual or not is not mentioned and it's heavily implied to be abusive.
65** The ''ComicBook/ArchieComics2015'' reboot is designed to be more realistic and contemporary than the [[ComicBook/ArchieComics classic continuity]]. The characters still don't have sexual relations in the reboot, but the topic at least gets suggested.
66** The ''ComicBook/JosieAndThePussycats'' reboot which goes with the 2015 reboots uses this trope even more than the other rebooted comics. The characters are in their mid-twenties, unlike previous depictions or the high school ''Archie'' characters, which gives the writers the ability to write them as having active sex lives. It is suggested that Melody ReallyGetsAround instead of just being a DudeMagnet while Josie and Alan have had sex.
67* Despite already being one of the most provocatively dressed stars in comic books, Harris Comics began the process of making ComicBook/{{Vampirella}}'s costume more and more like "Dental Floss" as Trina Robbins said.
68* ''ComicBook/XMenPhoenixLegacyOfFire'' is an alternate take on the ComicBook/XMen, or more specifically ComicBook/JeanGrey, that focus entirely on scantily-clad female characters caught in risque situations and cramming as much {{fanservice}} as possible. The comic was originally published with a normal PG rating, but after the first issue, execs most likely realized they were publishing soft-core porn that the two following issues were released with a Creator/MarvelMAX brand, bumping it for mature audiences.
69* ''ComicBook/NightmaresOnElmStreet'': Taryn's outfit in the dream world is even skimpier than her badass leather outfit in the third movie.
70* ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'' has had two instances of this:
71** When Mike Grell redesigned the team's costumes, everyone was more Stripperiffic. Saturn Girl's original costume covered her up entirely and wasn't even drawn to be skintight, but Grell's redesign is essentially a bikini (a later issue (after Saturn Girl had reverted to her original costume) had her actually use it as a bikini at the beach), Cosmic Boy's costume changed colour so that it matches his skin and gave the appearance that he was naked, Phantom Girl got a shutter-style CleavageWindow, and Princess Projectra ran around in a bikini.
72** The Retroboot Legion, who are basically the original Legion up to a certain point in their history (though they ''had'' gone back to their regular costumes by this point), had this in ''spades'' compared to their previous incarnation, the Threeboot Legion. Shadow Lass was back to a bikini, and Phamtom Girl's costume actually got ''more'' fanservice-y than her Grell outfit, as it was now skintight on top of her cleavage window.
73* ComicBook/{{X 23}} was introduced in ''WesternAnimation/XMenEvolution'' as a child. When made a CanonImmigrant, she was {{age lift}}ed up into a teenager and given a RaceLift. Laura in the comics is portrayed in a much more fanservicey {{goth}}-ish way than her original incarnation and usually bares her midriff. She also has RapeAsBackstory elements not present in the cartoon.
74* The ''Franchise/RoboCop'' franchise doesn't really have much in the way of fanservice. Given Creator/AvatarPress released ''ComicBook/FrankMillersRoboCop'', it should come as no surprise that there's a lot more scantily-clad women there.
75* AC Comics' ''ComicBook/{{Femforce}}'' has Golden Age characters Miss Victory and Yankee Girl, whose costumes have been updated to match the {{stripperiffic}} tone of the series.
76* ''Star Fems'', also by AC Comics, features Planet Comics heroines Mysta of the Moon, Gale Allen, and Futura. While all three wore {{stripperiffic}} attire in their original stories, ''Star Fems'' puts them in tighter, even skimpier outfits.
77** ''Star Fems'' also features ''ComicBook/{{Femforce}}'' character Stormy Tempest, who dons a LeotardOfPower, being rendered topless due to ClothingDamage.
78[[/folder]]
79
80[[folder:Fan Works]]
81* ''Fanfic/WeissReacts'' applies this to a ''character'', mostly for comedic potential. In canon, Pyrrha is a TeamMom who quietly nurses her feelings for Jaune. In ''[=WR=]'', she's a StalkerWithACrush who openly [[FemaleGaze ogles]] Jaune and tries to invoke ClothingDamage.
82* Invoked in ''WebVideo/PopCulture'', which is an AMV about a fictional singer in the music industry. According to a blink-or-you-miss-it piece of paper, Cassie's abusive managers forced her into changing her image and becoming more sexualized.
83* ''Fanfic/ANewHopeDanganronpa'' features far more romance than in canon, complete with detailed sex scenes between characters.
84* ''Fanfic/NewTamaran'' and other stories by [[https://archiveofourown.org/users/Saberlord_Oboeshoes/works Saberlord Oboeshoes]] aren’t shy about discussing the young heroes’ sex lives (to the point where it can be awfully disjointed from the rest of the story).
85* ''Fanfic/LeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemenTempestRewrite'': This story has a lot more sex than the original comic; it also ends with our heroines in [[{{stripperiffic}} much more revealing clothes]]
86* ''Fanfic/WhiteNoise'': Yang can't believe that the famous popstar Weiss used to be a Christian singer.
87* The ''Webcomic/MobPsycho100'' fandom is not in any way shy about the character's sexuality. This can be seen in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13226631/1/Shigeko-Kageyama-AKA-Mob Shigeko Kageyama AKA Mob,]]'' ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/8225062 Could Do, Should Do, Will Do,]]'' ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/18118466 Apparitions Gone Awry,]]'' ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/10726515 Null Homotopic,]]'' ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/11905506/chapters/26897814 3 a.m.]]'' and ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/13454469 The Penny Drops.]]''
88* Many, many ''Series/OddSquad'' fanfics are downplayed examples, since the characters are, after all, kids. The only thing added is romance, which was barely present in the original show outside of a few ShipTease moments and some subtle GettingCrapPastTheRadar moments. The ''Fanfic/ShipsAhoy'' [[TheVerse universe]] of fanfics is the most well-known example of this trope, as many of the characters are either in relationships or looking to be in a relationship.
89** The fanfic ''Fanfic/OSMUFanfictionFriction'' has an in-universe example of this trope played straight, with the revival of ''[[ShowWithinAShow Bizarre Brigade]]'', which was initially introduced in the ''Odd Squad'' Season 1 finale "O is Not For Over" as an adult-casted counterpart to ''Odd Squad'' as a show. The main characters, who are [[AgeLift aged up into teenagers]] and are [[invoked]] [[DawsonCasting played by adults,]] are all in skimpy outfits and there are a lot more sex themes (such as Oprah's counterpart's bodyguards in bondage gear). The revival as a whole is a triple TakeThat at terrible revivals of TV shows, people who sexualize minors, and TV shows that have black characters solely as a RatingsStunt but treat them poorly to the point where they only get one MandatoryLine.
90* You thought ''To Love Ru Darkness'' is already more fanservice-heavy than the already extremely-fanservice-heavy ''Manga/ToLoveRu''? Well, the fans thought ''Darkness'' isn't sexy enough and in turn, decided to make a FanGame based on the anime, but this time, turning it into a full-fledged {{Hentai}} [[HGame game]] and making the game show the sex scenes as explicit as logically possible and not pulling any punches about it. The name? ''To Love-Ru Diary''.
91[[/folder]]
92
93[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
94* ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'' does a costume-specific variation of this trope. After Elsa runs away, she realizes she no longer has to hide her powers, so she does things like swap her [[PimpedOutDress proper coronation dress]] for [[AnIceSuit a slinky dress]] (through GorgeousGarmentGeneration), which she does a SupermodelStrut in.
95* Disney's ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'' is this to the original ''Literature/TheLittleMermaid'' story. The demure little mermaid is revamped into Ariel. The mermaid in the original tale was topless (as most mermaids were at the time) but is presented non-sexually. Ariel however is a slightly older character with more MsFanservice aspects. The film contains a lot of [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything subtext]] with several of her scenes.
96* ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit'' does this with Jessica Rabbit's rendition of "Why Don't You Do Right?" that she sings in her opening number. The song, best popularized by Peggy Lee, was upbeat and jazzy. Jessica's performance is slower, and involves teasing the men in the audience.
97[[/folder]]
98
99[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
100* Every single Creator/UweBoll adaptation of every video game, particularly ''Film/AloneInTheDark2005'', which was changed from a [[Creator/HPLovecraft Lovecraftian]] detective story to a poor man's version of ''Film/TheMatrix''... but with more sex.
101* In-universe in ''Book of Love''. Creator/SamClaflin is the author of a badly received book. Then he discovers [[GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff it's a best seller in Mexico]] and they want him to visit. While there, turns out the translator basically rewrote the book with more romance and sex - by her admission, she "made it more interesting" and changed "the boring parts" - including [[GirlOnGirlIsHot a lesbian scene]]. He is outraged at first, but eventually comes to both accept and start a relationship with said translator.
102* This happens with a lot of adaptations of ''{{Dracula}}'', in particular ''Film/BramStokersDracula'', as it was TruerToTheText (probably because the Lugosi version [[AudienceColoringAdaptation that became the benchmark]] is based on [[Theatre/Dracula1924 Hamilton Deane's play]], and not Bram Stoker's book).
103* Two in-universe examples in ''Film/TheCabinInTheWoods'':
104** The controllers use pheromones to influence Kurt and Jules to have sex in the woods, and for Jules to show her breasts when she wouldn't have otherwise.
105** The board of potential monsters has a distinction between 'witches' and [[HotWitch 'sexy witches']].
106* ''Film/CaptainFracassasJourney'': This adaptation of Creator/TheophileGautier's ''Le capitaine Fracasse'' is the only one to feature a seductress, bare-breasted women and long kisses. Compare the way more chaste ''Film/LeCapitaineFracasse'' made in TheSixties.
107* In-universe in ''Film/DarlingLili''. The song "I'll Give You Three Guesses" is first performed as one of Lili's SillyLoveSongs in her routine - where she's wearing a frilly and conservative dress. The DarkReprise has it turning into a striptease.
108* The film versions of ''Series/TheDukesOfHazzard'', which took a family-friendly comedy series (with a resident, though mild fanservice character) and turned it into a sex comedy, complete with a raunchier unrated DVD version and R-rated direct-to-DVD sequel. Several actors from the original series even went public with their complaints.
109* The LiveActionAdaptation of ''Film/TheFlintstones'' had Creator/HalleBerry as Fred's SexySecretary, with some lines that went beyond ParentalBonus. To prevent backlash, however, Wilma and Betty were not oversexualized, [[Rule34 no matter what some fans thought about them]].
110* ''Film/FrightNight2011'' is infamous for casting a bunch of sexy actors (including Colin Farrell as the villain and David Tennant as a Criss Angel-like stage magician in the role originally portrayed by Roddy [=MacDowell=]) in this remake of ''Film/FrightNight1985''.
111* ''Film/HolidayOnTheBuses'' features nudity for the first time in the ''Series/OnTheBuses'' franchise and being set in a holiday resort allows for more women in bikinis.
112* ''Film/TheHungerGames'':
113** In the [[Literature/TheHungerGames book]], the yellow dress that Katniss wears at her final interview was supposed to be girlish and understated with a high, modest cut. In the movie, while not designed to overtly flaunt sex appeal, the dress's design is more mature than what's described in the book.
114** Inverted with Glimmer's dress. In the book, she's described as wearing a translucent golden dress. However, in the movie, she girlishly bounces out on stage in a puffy white dress.
115* ''Film/MaryShelleysFrankenstein'' (which appropriately enough was a FollowTheLeader situation from ''Bram Stoker's Dracula'') adds in a passionate sex scene for Victor and Elizabeth's wedding night. Victor also finds a lot of reasons to walk around shirtless.
116* ''Series/PoliceSquad'' is a straightlaced parody of cop shows. It's film adaptation ''Film/TheNakedGun'' finally let loose with sex jokes.
117-->'''Frank''': Nice beaver.
118-->'''Jane''': Thank you. I just had it stuffed.
119* ''Film/TheNewMutants'': {{Downplayed|Trope}}. While the film contains no explicit sex scenes, there is more explicit discussion of sex than is common for the franchise, with Rahne confessing to masturbation, Roberto's powers triggering whenever he becomes aroused, ToplessnessFromTheBack occurring for both Dani and Rahne (then them kissing outside).
120* "''Not Of This Earth''" was an alien sci-fi movie from the 1950's. It was remade thirty years later and it had become borderline softcore porn, what with all the nudity. It was the last film in which ex-porn star Traci Lords took her clothes off on camera.
121* ''Film/{{Ophelia}}'': Not a very severe example seeing as it's rated PG-13, but this iteration of ''Hamlet'' has more of an emphasis on romance and sensuality, including several make-out scenes between Ophelia and Hamlet. Even Claudius and Gertrude get a few make-out scenes too and it turns out that Gertrude likes to read the medieval equivalent of ''Mills and Boon'' in private (though nothing that explicit is mentioned). Also, while the original story is [[DidTheyOrDidntThey a bit ambiguous]] as to how far Ophelia and Hamlet's relationship went, in this case [[spoiler: it's made very clear that they did have sex after secretly marrying. Ophelia even has their daughter [[SomeoneToRememberHimBy after Hamlet has died]]]].
122* ''Film/PaintYourWagon'' greatly rewrote [[Theatre/PaintYourWagon the original musical play]], adding subplots about prostitution and wife-sharing.
123* ''[[Film/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief]]'' did this with Grover. In the book, he was shy and introverted with self-esteem issues. The movie turned him into a sex crazed maniac and played up the lust in Percy and Annabeth's romance.
124* The musical ''Theatre/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' was already this compared to its source novel, but the movie of it is even more so -- not to its benefit when it means the Phantom has been hit with severe AdaptationalAttractiveness that makes all the talk of his hideousness prior to his unmasking moot.
125* ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides'' to the franchise and Disney in general; it's the very first Disney film to mention sexual content (though not in those words) in the MPAA's reason for giving it a PG-13 rating.
126* The only real differences between ''Film/Psycho1998'' and [[Film/{{Psycho}} the original]] are that the remake sex and nudity added, such as a shot of Norman masturbating and a gratuitous scene of Viggo Mortensen's butt.
127* ''Film/RedRidingHood'' is a great example of this (as well as DarkerAndEdgier), what with all the bondage-gear pseudo-medieval clothing and rolling about in the snow.
128* There's more nudity and related fanservice in the third ''Film/{{Riddick}}'' movie than in previous installments, including from Riddick himself.
129* In ''Film/ScoobyDoo2002'', when a FreakyFridayFlip occurs, Freddy in Daphne's body [[ManIFeelLikeAWoman feels himself]], while Shaggy in Velma's body looks up her own skirt. This is quite a departure from the very chaste animated entries of [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo the series]].
130* It's common for {{parody}} films such as such as the ''Film/ScaryMovie'' series and ''Film/AustinPowers'' trilogy to feature more nudity and raunchier sex than the target material.
131* The 2002 TV movie ''Film/SherlockCaseOfEvil'' is a hotter and sexier version of Franchise/SherlockHolmes, transforming the great detective from a celibate misogynist into a sexy ladies' man who sleeps with no fewer than four different women over the course of this one hour and a half movie (two of them [[ThreeWaySex at the same time]]).
132* ''Film/SleepawayCamp'' had two sequels that were more explicit in sex and nudity for two main factors: more money from following the common {{Fanservice}} in 1980s horror movies and the fact that they could legally do it with their DawsonCasting compared to the original which used real teenagers.
133* ''Film/TheThreeMusketeers2011'', starring Creator/MillaJovovich as ActionGirl fourth member [[spoiler:Milady De Winter, who at one point rips off her overdress and has a petticoat cut as a ShowgirlSkirt]].
134* In ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'' cartoon, Spike did have some dating issues. [[Film/TransformersFilmSeries The movies]] made it more explicit and had plenty of fanservice shots of the love interests.
135* In ''Film/TronLegacy'', the costumes are a lot more attractive, tighter and revealing than in the original film. Casting Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde and Beau Garrett really helps.
136* ''Film/TheWayHeLooks'' is a Brazilian ComingOfAgeStory QueerRomance focusing on a blind teen figuring out his sexuality after falling for the NewTransferStudent that befriends him. The movie is based on a 15 minutes short called ''Eu Não Quero Voltar Sozinho'' (in English: "I Don't Want to Go Back Alone"), which only goes as far as a kiss in the end of the video. The film however, dives deep into Leo's developing sexuality and Leo and Gabriel's genuine sexual attraction to each other, includes a shower scene in which Gabriel [[EatingTheEyeCandy looks and analyzes Leo's naked body]] and has [[spoiler:Leo masturbating with Gabriel's sweater]].
137* ''Film/Wishmaster3BeyondTheGatesOfHell'' had some gratuitous nudity added in compared to the previous ones. And then this is taken one step beyond with ''Film/Wishmaster4TheProphecyFulfilled'', or as put by [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzjDfR93j7c Deusdaecon's review]], "Wishmaster 4: The Porn Version", where the very first scene after the opening text is the protagonist having sex with her boyfriend.
138* Who knew that Charles Xavier was a charming, PrettyBoy cad or that Erik Lehnsherr was a brooding, TallDarkAndHandsome "bad boy" during their youth? ''Film/XMenFirstClass'' also provides the most scantily-clad females in the entire franchise. Inverted, surprisingly, with Mystique, who usually wears at least ''some'' form of clothing in ''First Class'', whereas she spent basically the entirety of her time on-screen (as herself) entirely naked in all three of the previous movies.
139* ''Film/Zapped1982'', a sex comedy, was originally filmed as a more family-friendly PG-rated movie. However, following the box office success of ''Film/{{Porkys}}'', parts of ''Zapped!'' were refilmed to increase the amount of nudity and to intentionally earn an R-rating. These changes led to an official complaint from actress Heather Thomas and gave the movie a TroubledProduction.
140* 1970s Brazil, which saw the emergence of the SexComedy genre "pornochanchada", had a few spoofing Hollywood blockbusters: ''The Godfather'' inspired ''[[https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BOTI5ZGUwZmQtOWNjNy00ZmUzLTk4MmQtNWFmMWY5ZmVjODY1L2ltYWdlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMjU4MzEwNTU@._V1_UY1200_CR108,0,630,1200_AL_.jpg The Studfather]]'' and ''[[https://media.fstatic.com/zrFofZRUzue9FaYoY4YkFF1s7A0=/fit-in/210x312/smart/media/movies/covers/2014/12/o-filho-do-chefao_tNone.jpg The Godfather's Son]]'', ''The Exorcist'' was followed by ''Sexual Nightmare of a Virgin'' and ''The Women Exorcist'', and ''Jaws'' had ''[[https://jornal.usp.br/wp-content/uploads/20160901_03_filmescompartivos2.jpg Bacalhau]]'' (where one of the many women in bikinis comes from the sea smiling, waves thankfully to the killer fish, and then says "he [[DoubleEntendre ate me]]", followed by some BowChickaWowWow music).

142
143[[folder:Literature]]
144* This trope has been applied to the [[http://inventorspot.com/articles/element_girls_pretty_periodic_table_21561 periodic table of elements]] by a female Japanese university professor.
145* ''Literature/AgathaHAndTheClockworkPrincess'': In the [[Webcomic/GirlGenius original comic]], when Lucrezia decides to "admire" Agatha's body, she strips down to her skivvies. Here, she strips down ''completely''.
146* When Creator/LewisCarroll's heroine from ''Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland'' is portrayed as [[SheIsAllGrownUp a teenager or adult]] in a work of modern fiction, she is likely to get this treatment ''and'' {{Xenafication}}.
147* ''Literature/ACourtOfThornsAndRoses'': The series has never shied away from depicting sexual content, but ''A Court of Silver Flames'' (the first book to be specifically marketed as adult literature rather than young adult) really ramps this up, with sex scenes being far more frequent and explicit than previous installments, to the point of bordering on/crossing into PornWithPlot.
148* While the overall tone of ''Series/{{Heroes}}'' isn't shy about its {{Fanservice}} or the number of characters who hook up or have had illegitimate children, Hiro's TV character is written as a very pure, romantic, nigh-asexual man (in contrast to [[TheInternetIsForPorn his buddy Ando]]). In the TieInNovel ''Literature/SavingCharlie'', however, Hiro "gets pretty randy" [[http://www.upcoming-movies.com/interviews/Heroes2/default.asp by admission of his actor,]] Creator/MasiOka. A classic example of Administrivia/TropesAreTools, as many fans loved Hiro precisely ''because'' he's awkwardly earnest and [[IncorruptiblePurePureness a sincere knight-in-shining-armor wannabe]].
149* Hunter Steele's novel "Lord Hamlet's Castle" is this to ''Theatre/{{Hamlet}}''.
150* The ''Literature/NancyDrew Files'' is this to the original series, with Ned and Nancy making out quite often, and it being described more sensually and in greater detail. This series also had much more emphasis on romance and relationships in general--not just Nancy's and Ned's, but also those of other characters--than any other ''Nancy Drew'' series.
151* ''Literature/TheHardyBoys Casefiles'', the SpearCounterpart to the ''Nancy Drew Files'', counts as well. The romance isn't played up as much for the Hardys as it is for Nancy, but makeout sessions between the boys and their girlfriends, or sometimes the GirlOfTheWeek, are referenced or at least implied or alluded to (usually with a SexyDiscretionShot), and both of them have deeper relationships with their girlfriends than they do in other series.
152* The tie-in novels, ''Literature/TheRiseOfKyoshi'' and ''Literature/TheShadowOfKyoshi'' are more overtly sexual than the rest of the ''[[Franchise/AvatarTheLastAirbender Avatar]]'' franchise. There are some pretty erotic scenes between Kyoshi and Rangi in the first book but the second ups the sex even more. Kuruk sleeps with one of his maids in a flashback, although no actual sex is shown. While there are other half-siblings in the franchise, notably Toph's daughters Lin and Suyin, the implications about having multiple extramarital sexual partners are glossed over. All that's said is that they have different dads and Lin's dad was a nice guy named Kanto but things didn't work out between him and Toph. Fire Lord Zoryu has a bastard half-brother whom is specifically called his bastard half-brother. Kyoshi even meets said brother's mother who regales her about their passionate extramarital love affair. Zoryu also tells Kyoshi he assumes he has other half-siblings out there that he's never met.
153* The first season of ''WebVideo/PrettyDudes'' is very tame compared to the seasons that followed, but the novelization of the season ramps up the sex, with Zario hooking up in flashbacks and the present, giving a particular AdaptationalContextChange to [[spoiler:his book-ending decision to skip town with Jay]].
154* The publisher Monarch Books released {{novelization}}s for the European {{kaiju}} movies ''Film/{{Reptilicus}}'', ''Film/{{Gorgo}}'', and ''Film/{{Konga}}'', all of which featured explicit sex scenes completely absent from the actual films, to the point that they seem like soft-core pornography that also has a monster attacking in the background. This is particularly egregious with ''Gorgo'', which had a CanonForeigner as the female love interest because the film had no women characters.
155* ''Literature/TheShipWho'' is a short series where every entry is co-written with Creator/AnneMcCaffrey and a different author and is largely independent of the other entries, though callbacks abound. ''The City Who Fought'', written with Creator/SMStirling, is the longest, darkest, and most sexually explicit. Simeon introduces himself to his [[BrainsAndBrawn new brawn Channa]] by hitting on her, which she does not appreciate. When Channa's on a date with a pretty, charming man she thinks that if this was a movie there wouldn't be a dry seat in the audience, alluding to how wet she is. Simeon is wildly jealous and resents that Channa wants privacy for sex, so [[CoitusInterruptus interrupts]] them by [[SeeingThroughAnothersEyes accessing her ocular implants]] and telling her he's watching. This is also the book with the Kolnari, who are obsessed with spreading their "Divine Seed" and not concerned about consent.
156* ''Literature/StarWarsLostStars'': The manga adaptation depicts several young male characters as {{pretty boy}}s, female characters (especially Ciena and Jude) have some generous MaleGaze and even partial nudity when Ciena is taking a shower.
157* The “Wild and Wanton” editions are writers doing this to some classic books (there’s a Wild and Wanton edition of ''Literature/TheAgeOfInnocence'' with sex scenes added, for example.)
158* There's a company called [[http://clandestineclassics.blogspot.com/ Clandestine Classics]] (link contains NSFW) which takes classic novels like ''Literature/JaneEyre'' and ''Literature/WutheringHeights'' and adds in explicit sex scenes.
159[[/folder]]

161[[folder:Music]]
162* Music/NellyFurtado's first two albums were kinda experimental pop/folk, [[http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/sunday2001/images/leicester/wallpaper/nelly_furtado640x480.jpg normal clothing]]... then ''Loose'' had her singing R&B/hip-hop, some with suggestive titles like "Promiscuous" and "Maneater", and [[https://whatisthegrain.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/nelly-furtado-promiscuous-girl-1.jpg sexy wardrobe.]] Giving birth between those albums helped her body to get good enough for those tight pants. It's downplayed however because, as critics have noted, she did not resort to just wearing underwear or grinding like some of her contemporaries.
163* The [[KPop K-Pop]] group T-ara did two music videos of their song, "Bo Peep Bo Peep". The 19+ version is basically [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9403-9CptH8 softcore porn...]] Some think it's still "not porny enough" compared to Western music videos going the same way, but then again, [[ValuesDissonance this]] ''[[ValuesDissonance is]]'' [[ValuesDissonance South Korea we're talking about]].
164** Then there is Hyuna, whose sexy solo career has more views on Youtube than when she is working as part of 4minute, her teaser video for What's Your Name has more views than her entire group combined which says the Hotter and Sexier direction is well received.
165* Music/HilaryDuff is a downplayed case. Her music has gotten hotter and sexier over time, and many critics have noted that it is strange to hear her sing things like ''"Reach out and touch me"'', but she still wears the same type of clothing from her Series/LizzieMcGuire days.
166* Creator/MirandaCosgrove is starting this with her EP, ''High Maintenance''. Note the last track of the EP, as it's just that.
167* Music/MileyCyrus went there the moment she started ''Party In The USA''. Special mention goes to Wrecking Ball.
168* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxVNOnPyvIU Untitled (How Does It Feel) by D'angelo.]]
169* Lovage did this when they covered [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=luMoGdwixTM Berlin's "Sex (I'm A)".]] The Lovage version [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4joDAJQA30 can be heard here]] and is either Hotter and Sexier or {{Narm}}y depending on taste. Probably NotSafeForWork either way.
170* Music/KatyPerry started out as a Christian pop singer. Then she made "I Kissed a Girl"...
171* Music/CarlyRaeJepsen. After the saccharine sweetness of "Tug of War" and especially "Call Me Maybe", she released "Good Time" with Music/OwlCity; she bares her midriff in the video. [[https://web.archive.org/web/20120731235421/https://www.at40.com/news-article/carly-rae-jepsen-real-xxx-stolen-photos/22446/ There was even a nude photo scandal!]]
172* Music/MichaelJackson attempted this starting with the ''Bad'' era in the late 1980s, as a contrast to his previous more innocent-looking image.
173* Music/KwonEunbi, formerly of Music/{{IZONE}}, went this direction after embarking on a solo career. Her solo music has contained more sensual lyrics, especially "Underwater." Her stage outfits have accentuated her figure as well.
174* Christina Milian, during her Dip It Low phase.
175* R&B group 702, after their hiatus returned with skimpier clothes and with what some believe were boob jobs.
176* Brooke Valentine, but it didn't stop her album ''Physical Education'' from being shelved.
177* Music/RKelly became this more and more over the 90's heading into the millennium.
178* Ciara was always in this category but moved further into this direction in her later albums.
179* {{Music/Brandy}} started going into this phase with her third album, ''Full Moon'' and amped it up even more with her ''Afrodisiac'' album.
180* Zigzagged but mostly inverted with Music/XJapan over the 2008 reunion and forward, which used to have songs such as ''Stab Me In The Back,'' ''Orgasm,'' ''Standing Sex,'' and the like - as well as lots of onstage man-on-man fanservice - as a regular feature of the setlist for almost all live shows. Post 2008, ''Orgasm'' was the only one to remain in the setlist (and only then for certain shows for the full version - the gigs outside Japan didn't even feature the full version, if they featured it at all), and most of the homoerotic fanservice became more of the WittyBanter and CallBack variety.
181* {{Music/Nick Jonas}}, starting with his solo career.
182* Girl group Music/ThreeLW with their music video for "I Do".
183* Amber first started heading in this direction with singles such as "One More Night" and "Sexual", and climaxed ([[AccidentalPun pardon the pun]]) with her third album, appropriately titled ''Naked''.
184* Girl group Music/FifthHarmony got more sexed up with their 7/27 album hit, starting with "Work From Home".
185* Music/DemiLovato's song "Cool for the Summer" and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=il9nqWw9W3Y the accompanying music video]] represent a pretty marked upping of the sexuality in their music and image.
186* Music/JustinBieber started in this phase once he turned 18.
187* Music/{{Pentatonix}} members Scott Hoying and Mitch Grassi began their side project Superfruit for this reason. Scott and Mitch are both openly gay, and Superfruit allows them to create original music and explore more sexual themes, whereas Pentatonix is more for general audiences.
188* Liam Payne stepped into this phase after leaving Music/OneDirection. His song, "Strip That Down", {{lampshade|Hanging}}s this clearly.
189-->You know, I used to be in 1D (now I'm out, free)\
190People want me for one thing (that's not me)\
191I'm not changing, the way, that I (used to be)\
192I just wanna have fun and (get rowdy)
193* Music/{{Blackbear}}'s acoustic version of "idfc" has more explicit lyrics than the normal version.
194* Inverted with Music/AtomicKitten - whose first album was full of Spice Girls style innuendos and blatant sexuality. Their second saw them becoming far more modest and wholesome.
195* Most recently, Ava Max turns up the heat with "My Head and My Heart" but then it cranked it much higher with her more recent song “Maybe You’re the Problem”.
196* Music/ChristinaAguilera's first album, while suggestive at times, was fairly standard [[TeenPop bubblegum pop]]. For her second traditional album[[note]]fourth in total, as in between her self-titled debut and ''Stripped'', she released a Spanish-language album and [[ChristmasSongs a Christmas album]][[/note]] Aguilera took control of the project and her image. The result was the much raunchier ''[[Music/Stripped2002 Stripped]]''.
197* Music/JanetJackson's entire career was building up to this. From clean dance-pop on her first two albums as a teenager, to a suggestive take on New Jack Swing on ''Control'' (though even that album features "Let's Wait Awhile", which is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin). ''Janet.'' ramped this up significantly by being almost exclusively about sex, featuring a cropped version of a topless photo shoot as an album cover. ''The Velvet Rope'' was more eclectic and mature in its subject matter, but the sexual songs were even more daring, involving BDSM and bisexual themes. The trend peaked with 2004's ''Damita Jo'' and her infamous WardrobeMalfunction at the UsefulNotes/SuperBowl halftime show that year, the point at which backlash from MoralGuardians sent her career into [[RoleEndingMisdemeanor decline]].
198* Country singer Dottie West underwent a transformation during the late 1970s and early 1980s that went from being known for singing in modest gingham dresses and turning down an offer to cover the Music/KrisKristofferson song "Help Me Make It Through the Night" due to it being "too sexy" to wearing spandex, sequin-covered Bob Mackie gowns; appearing in the lead role in a stage production of ''Film/TheBestLittleWhorehouseInTexas''; posing for the French men's magazine ''Oui'' and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking recording "Help Me Make It Through the Night"]]. This led to West, nearing 50, experiencing a dramatic (though ultimately short-lived) CareerResurrection.
199* Music/TaylorSwift went through this period in the mid-2010s, starting with the video for her 2015 single "Bad Blood" and continuing with her 2017 album ''Music/{{reputation}}''. Taylor had previously crafted a wholesome GirlNextDoor image, first as a teenage {{country|Music}} singer and then as a twentysomething pop star, but by 2015, a growing wave of personal controversy, most notably her feuds with various other celebrities, made that image [[ContractualPurity increasingly hard to sell]]. Knowing that she could no longer convincingly play a "good girl", she pivoted towards playing the "bad girl" that most of America and the tabloids saw her as, and not only did the songs feature her most overtly sexual lyrics yet, but her music videos during this time often had her in skimpy, fetishized outfits a long way from the T-shirts and ball gowns of her earlier years. "Bad Blood" had her playing a sexy DarkActionGirl in leather crop tops and studded bras, "...Ready for It?" had her in a white SpyCatsuit inspired by ''Anime/GhostInTheShell1995'', and "Look What You Made Me Do" had her as a BikerBabe and a {{dominatrix}}. Her [[Music/{{Lover}} following album cycle]] saw her mostly pull back from it, though she would remain more comfortable wearing revealing clothing than she'd been before (for instance, the pink leotard she famously wore on her Eras Tour).
200* 80s TeenPop sensation Music/DebbieGibson, once she reached adulthood in the early '90s, went in this direction with ''Body, Mind, Soul''. [[https://youtu.be/a99v7oW6Itg Here's a particularly cheeky snippet]] from that period. A racier look for America's sweetheart Debbie Gibson just didn't catch on, and the album tanked.
201* The song "The Witch of the Westmoreland" was originally written by Scottish folksinger Barbara Dickson and has since been covered by several artists (including Archie Fisher, Music/StanRogers, and Music/KateRusby). Dickson's original lyrics had the witch heal the wounded knight with a kiss, saying "There's none can harm a knight who's kissed by the Witch of the Westmoreland"; all the cover versions instead have "...who's ''lain'' with the Witch of the Westmoreland," indicating she heals him by having sex with him rather than simply a kiss.
202* Canadian singer Tate [=McRae=] started her career as a dancer, most notably becoming the first Canadian finalist on the American show ''Series/SoYouThinkYouCanDance'', but broke through in 2020 as a TeenPop star with a BedroomPop sound, image, and baggy clothes reminiscent of Music/BillieEilish. She started incorporating more of her dance background into her music as time went on, especially after she turned 18, and by the time of her 2023 album ''Think Later'', this came paired with a [=Y2K-era=] throwback pop sound that included an embrace of the sex appeal of the era's pop princesses like Music/BritneySpears and Music/ChristinaAguilera. Compare her 2020 BreakthroughHit [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG-erEMhumc "You Broke Me First",]] a downbeat BreakupSong telling off a boy who took advantage of her and used her as an emotional crutch and whose video is [[TheOner one take]] of her singing into the camera while wearing a black jacket, with her 2023 singles [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=To4SWGZkEPk "Greedy"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXt0Nw8xWh0 "Exes",]] upbeat dance-pop tracks whose videos are ThreeMinutesOfWrithing.
203[[/folder]]
204
205[[folder:Pinballs]]
206* Exaggerated in the case of ''Pinball/BlackRose'': an X-rated backglass was designed for an interested European market, but [[WhatCouldHaveBeen it was never produced.]]
207[[/folder]]
208
209[[folder:Podcasts]]
210* A very Downplayed example, but the ''Podcast/EighteenSixtyFive'' Booth prequel miniseries does open with a sex scene, something the main series never featured. Otherwise, it isn’t any more explicit than the main series.
211[[/folder]]
212
213[[folder:Pro Wrestling]]
214* ''Wrestling/{{GLOW}}'' in the 80s was this to traditional women's wrestling. The G stands for Gorgeous after all. Women's wrestling at the time was serious athletic competition so ''GLOW'' took things in a more tongue-in-cheek DoubleEntendre comedy direction.
215* The birth of the WWE Divas archetype in the Wrestling/AttitudeEra. Before then the female wrestlers in the company were average-looking women wrestling in singlets. Then along came {{Wrestling/Sable}} - a stunningly beautiful glamour model. Whenever she did moves, the fans went wild and so WWE started bringing in more pretty ladies. Not only did the standard wrestling outfits for women become considerably skimpier, they also had CatFight evening gown matches, bra and panties matches, gravy bowl matches [[GimmickMatches etc]].
216* This happened to WWE again in 2004. It opted to make its second [[Wrestling/WWEDivaSearch Diva Search]] part of its flagship show, resulting in a collection of pretty models, actresses getting a segment each week for the opportunity to win a contract, and unlike Jamie from the previous year, this time [[Wrestling/ChristyHemme the winner]] got a pay per view match...which ended up being less wrestling match and more pillow fight. WWE ended up hiring most of the losers anyway and releasing most of its trained women wrestlers. Needless to say, there were a lot less actual wrestling matches between women. This was toned down in 2008 when WWE began to appeal more to families.
217* Yoshimoto's JD Star promotion went in this direction in 2001. Having lost its top draw, Jaguar Yokota, who was also its reason for existing, they tried to stay relevant by recruiting girls with glamour model potential in hopes they would become crossover stars outside of pro wrestling and bring new fans to the sport.
218* Ohio Valley Wrestling, especially its women's division, veered this way a few times. First when WWE started making the diva search an official part of its shows, which saw a sharp reduction in the calls for wrestlers without breast implants. Second when Wrestling/AlSnow joined the booking team, which saw a shift in how women's angles and segments went. Third when [[Wrestling/ImpactWrestling TNA]] took it on as its developmental brand, resulting in Snow's return and the knockouts making more frequent appearances. Administrivia/TropesAreTools, as some other bookers did take things more seriously than Snow but others wouldn't book women's matches at all so long as boobs were on the show.
219* The Wrestling/BellaTwins actually debuted as a TokenWholesome, which according to WordOfGod was out of pressure to preserve PG - "We were like the G-girls" - and they wore very modest tops and long tights with ruffles on them. Upon a FaceHeelTurn they dropped the ruffles and started wrestling in {{Spy Catsuit}}s. Nikki Bella likewise eventually got breast implants and - when the two [[TwinDesynch no longer needed to look identical]] - wore more outfits that showed off her cleavage.
220* Lana was pretty tame when it came to {{Fanservice}} in her initial days - she wore form-fitting business suits and although the skirt was short, it wasn't dangerously so. There was nothing particularly sexual about her character either, aside from occasionally doing a turn as if to show off her body at an angle. But when she started wrestling, she opted for a LeotardOfPower and incorporated sexy dances into her routine.
221* Wrestling/LisaMarieVaron debuted as a BloodKnight whose outfits in the ring weren't particularly skimpy. In 2004 she switched her long tights for hot pants and began performing a twerk before a standing moonsault. She also cranked up the AmbiguouslyBi aspect of her character, and would occasionally share a [[GirlOnGirlIsHot kiss with another female]].
222* Wrestling/DolphZiggler was at first a golf caddy for 'Kerwin White' and then a male cheerleader wrestling in a bodysuit. The Dolph Ziggler character went for very tight trunks and an oiled up Adonis look. He went through a storyline of being Wrestling/VickieGuerrero's boy-toy as well.
223* {{Wrestling/Aksana}}'s first character on WWE TV was a ditzy FunnyForeigner. Even when she switched to a FemmeFatale character, she mainly made InnocentInnuendo jokes due to the language barrier (and her ring gear was still quite modest). Then she adopted skintight catsuits and started doing seductive crawls around the ring.
224* Sammy D began wrestling in Ireland when he was only fourteen, and thus played a wholesome BigFun babyface. Around the time he turned eighteen, he switched his long tights for trunks, went shirtless completely and portrayed an oiled-up fitness junkie who was far more provocative.
225* Madison Rayne's indies persona as Ashley Lane was a wholesome babyface, and even in ''{{Wrestling/Wrestlicious}}'' she played a peppy cheerleader called Amber Lively. In TNA, as part of Wrestling/TheBeautifulPeople, she was implied to sleep with referees to help her teammates win matches, shook her ass seductively on the ring apron and would tease a kiss with either Velvet Sky or Tara. In one memorable match against Angelina Love, she wrestled in a flesh-coloured bodysuit. In late 2010, she did begin to downplay this, with dyeing her hair brown and acting more like a pageant queen instead.
226* Wrestling/AlexaBliss debuted as a KidAppealCharacter, dubbed the 'Fairy Princess of NXT'; who wore a tutu and blew glitter everywhere. When she turned heel to hook up with Blake and Murphy, her outfits became skimpier and she went from CuteBruiser to AmazonianBeauty.
227[[/folder]]
228
229[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
230* Princess Frostine in ''TabletopGame/CandyLand'' has evolved into a pouty lipped girl with fishnet stockings [[http://www.theatlantic.com/sexes/archive/2013/04/even-candy-land-isnt-safe-from-sexy/275283/ in a later incarnation of the game]].
231[[/folder]]
232
233[[folder:Theatre]]
234* The revival of ''Theatre/{{Cabaret}}'' in the 1990s directed by Sam Mendes was pointedly Hotter and Sexier despite the show being hardly clean in the first place. Subverted in that you could also [[{{Squick}} see the needle tracks]] on the skins of the Kit Kat Klub dancers where they'd been using. [[FanDisservice Not so sexy]].
235* TheMusical version of ''Theatre/{{Chicago}}'' adds a great deal of (rather anachronistic) sexual dialogue to the original non-musical play, portrays Roxie as much more of a sexpot, shows her in the act of committing adultery in the opening scene and allows a semi-dressed Billy to cavort around with ChorusGirls.
236* Parodied by the TagLine to ''Theatre/BloodyBloodyAndrewJackson'': "HISTORY JUST GOT ALL SEXYPANTS."
237* In the transition from ''Theatre/LaBoheme'' to ''Theatre/{{Rent}}'', most of the characters stayed pretty much the same. Except for Mimi, who went from sweet, soft-spoken and naive seamstress, to junkie S&M dancer. A lot of the contrast between sweet Mimi and sexy Musetta/Maureen is lost, but Mimi actually becomes a more rounded character in the process.
238** Mimi's number "Out Tonight" became Hotter and Sexier in the transition between play and movie. In the play, the song is sexy, but it takes place in Mimi's apartment as she prepares to meet Roger. In the movie, its an excuse for Rosario Dawson to do a strip routine.
239* There have been several cases where decades (sometimes even century-old) plays that were notorious in their day for suggestive content (usually no more than suggestive) have been revived, but with greater freedom of expression on stage often crank up the sexual content. The popular teen play ''Theatre/SpringAwakening'' is a good example of this. Two characters do not have sex in the middle of a song in the original.
240* ''Theatre/{{Aida|JohnRice}}'' to other Disney musicals. The sight of a clearly post-coital Radames and Aida is quite shocking.
241* In ''Literature/DonQuixote'', the DeconstructiveParody of ChivalricRomance includes Don Quixote making up his own fictional DamselInDistress, Dulcinea del Toboso, whom he loosely bases on a rude country girl that he finds beautiful but never interacts with, Aldonza Lorenzo. How much 'hot' Aldonza gets depends on how much weight you put on innuendo (she's said at one point to "have the best hand salting swine in all of La Mancha"), but in the end, there is nothing to assume she's anything beyond a simple, rude (and apparently smelly) country girl. In TheMusical ''Theatre/ManOfLaMancha'', however, Aldonza is a [[PlatonicProstitution beautiful]] HookerWithAHeartOfGold who [[DarkerAndEdgier has run into trouble]] with UsefulNotes/TheSpanishInquisition. And she is played by Creator/SophiaLoren in the movie.
242[[/folder]]
243
244[[folder:Toys]]
245* Franchise/{{Barbie}}, though moral guardians (or those who prefer the original 1950s cat's-eyed version) might not approve.
246* Action figures and dolls based upon movie and TV characters (male or female) these days tend to be more realistic and accurate than they used to be back in the old days. Depending on who is being portrayed, the trope can definitely apply.
247[[/folder]]
248
249[[folder:Visual Novels]]
250* ''VisualNovel/{{Clannad}}'' was one of the few Key VN's that didn't include any sex scenes, even though it had some degree of FanService. Cue the ''Tomoyo After'' SpinOff, which includes three sex scenes between Tomoyo and Okazaki.
251* ''VisualNovel/DanganronpaV3KillingHarmony'': Given the new love hotel feature this game is certainly more "suggestive" than the previous entries in both the main story and the dating sim mode. Buying the "Key of Love" allows the main character to play out one of their classmate's most desired fantasy, with the player character being seen as that student's "ideal partner". Depending on who happens to show up when the player visits the love hotel, there could be a heavy implication that the characters end up sleeping with each other. More of the characters here are also more open about their sexual interests than those of previous games, like the two BDSM enthusiasts (Miu and Korekiyo) have this appear in just their character designs.
252* Both ''VisualNovel/OshiRabuWaifusOverHusbandos'' and it's sequel have a version on JAST USA and [=MangaGamer=] websites whhich includes H-Game content not present in other public releases; for those that already purchased the game via Steam, JAST and [=MangaGamer=] also sell a "DLC" patch that can be applied to enable this content, which cannot be sold through Steam itself due to terms and conditions.
253* ''VisualNovel/PrincessEvangile'', while already including sex scenes, was rather conservative about their use, restricting them to towards the end of each heroine's respective route. Come ''W Happiness'', there's a far more liberal usage of them, especially in the epilogue routes. Pretty much 3/4th of the latter's [=CGs=] are an H-scene of some sort when compared to the base VN.

257* PlayedForLaughs InUniverse in ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'': in Jax's movie, when after Washington and Carolina bond the former says "TakeOffYourClothes", instead of [[ThatCameOutWrong explaining the misunderstanding]], it's the cue for her to swoon and a sex scene.
258* ''WebAnimation/DeepSpace69'' is a sex comedy, so it makes sense it would be chock full of fanservice. However, because the series was originally released on [=YouTube=], which has pretty strict guidelines about sexual content, the fanservice had to be kept fairly mild. However, the [[UnratedEdition unrated version]], available to purchase via Creator/MondoMedia's digital shop and Google Play, takes advantage of not being restricted and cranks up the fanservice to softcore porn levels.

262* ''Inverted'' with ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers''. Along with becoming LighterAndSofter, the fanservice, while still very existent, is a lot lesser than in the earliest strips. The earlier strips had a lot more BlackComedyRape and much more HomoeroticSubtext, some so blatant it could only be called text. Some of the old fanservicey strips were even [[MissingEpisode deleted.]] Ironically, played straight with the fifth season of the anime. After 4 seasons of toning down the fanservice, the 5th season goes all out in pandering to the {{Yaoi Fangirl}}s, animating some of the raunchiest strips such as ''April Fools 2011'' and ''Buon San Valentino''.
263* ''Webcomic/NerfNow'' is a webcomic where {{Stripperiffic}} DistaffCounterpart versions of all the characters of ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' are featured frequently.
264* Rather infamously, ''Webcomic/{{Sonichu}} 8''.
265* When T gave up on getting ''Webcomic/PennyAndAggie'' syndicated, he "celebrated" it with "Behind Closed Doors", where nearly all the couples past and present either have sex or almost have sex. This is the first arc to hint at Stan's bisexuality, and while it's not the first arc to hint at Sara's lesbianism, touching herself to Lindsay Lohan is a bit clearer than the strip had gotten in the past.
266* ''Webcomic/PennyArcade's'' infamously censored ''WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake'' [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/2003/4/14 strip,]] which was actually a parody of the industry's [[VideoGame/AmericanMcGeesAlice tendency]] to do this plus DarkerAndEdgier. [[http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2011/6/15 Eventually followed by a]] ''WesternAnimation/RainbowBrite'' parody. Hopefully they don't get sued this time.
267* The {{Fanservice}}-sodden pre-Scratch trolls in ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' are all in their late teens/early adulthood and many are sexually active, as opposed to the chaste post-Scratch trolls that the reader is first introduced to. Porrim is an EthicalSlut who Latula and Aranea have apparently slept with out of boredom, it's heavily implied [[EnemyMime Kurloz]]/[[Website/{{tumblr}} Meulin]], [[EvenTheGuysWantHim Rufioh]]/[[DaydreamBeliever Horuss]] and [[TotallyRadical Latula]]/[[FunnySchizophrenia Mituna]] have slept together, [[EntitledToHaveYou Cronus]] is obsessed with getting sex, and most jarringly almost all of [[DepravedBisexual Damara]]'s dialogue is her begging people to have sex with her in kinky and creepy ways (when ''Homestuck'' has had, despite plenty of swearing, ''no'' sexual swearing up until that point). Damara's sexualisation is so extreme that not only is her text written in Japanese, requiring finding a point in a flash walkaround with a link to her transcripts and then copy-pasting text into Google Translate to read, some of her [[GoingThroughTheMotions gestures]] are [[{{Pixellation}} censored]] (likely as a joke, but still, that was only done in the comic previously for Equius's PornStash).
268* ''Webcomic/LearningWithMangaFGO'' is this to ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'' the same way ''Fate/Grand Order'' is to the rest of the ''Franchise/{{Fate|Series}}'' series. Despite the PuniPlush art style, it's packed with sex jokes, the occasional BlackComedyRape or molestation, and semi-explicit pairings and fetishes for almost every character. They only manage to get away with it by making sure most of the naughtier stuff happens off-panel.
269* ''Webcomic/MrBoop'': [[WesternAnimation/BettyBoop Betty Boop's]] sex life is depicted in much more explicit detail than the original cartoons.
270* Despite being BestKnownForTheFanservice, the infamous ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'' AlternateUniverse comic ''Underlust'' is actually a deconstruction of this trope. The Underground is sex-obsessed as a result of unethical experimentation in order to combat the monsters' dropping fertility rates, and now all monsters are suffering from their artificially-induced libido. In addtion, this sex obsession only worsened the Underground's already-existing problems, and now crimes such as rape are extremely common. Several characters are seen suffering heavy psychological and emotional damage as a result of their experiences.
271* Intentionally invoked in the continuation of ''Webcomic/DominicDeegan'', ''The Legacy of Dominic Deegan''. [[TheRant In an article]] titled [[https://www.dominic-deegan.com/the-sex-is-the-point/ "The Sex is the Point,"]] Mookie stated he wanted to flip the script on the previous comic, which shyed away from nudity and sex, but had plenty of violence and gore. ''Legacy'' was planned for little violence but far more, and more explicit, depictions of sex and nudity... [[Administrivia/YouHaveBeenWarned And the comic coming after that rant would ramp things up.]]

275* ''WebVideo/BradJonesDemoReel'' has this InUniverse, where Braddie insists that ''E.T. The Porno'' wasn't hot enough, so he wants to make a truly sexy one.
276* In a BlackComedyRape way, ''Spooning with Spoony II'' compared to ''Spooning with Spoony''. While the latter's comedy was based on how traumatized Chick was while everyone around her was enjoying it, the former was mostly Spoony talking in great detail about the ways he had sex with Critic.
277%%* LetsPlay/GACKTGameCenter is this in relation to Game Center cx

281* The introduction of Lola Bunny in ''Film/SpaceJam'' had this purpose in the ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' franchise.
282* ''WesternAnimation/RedHotRidingHood''. Starts out as a normal Little Red Riding Hood until the characters suddenly rebel at this done-to-death staging and demand a fresh approach. Red is a sexy adult nightclub entertainer. It was voted #7 of The 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time.
283* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
284** Referenced in the parody spinoff ''Chief Wiggum PI''!
285--->'''Skinner:''' He's gradually getting away, Chief!\
286'''Wiggum:''' Ah, let him go. I have the feeling we'll meet again, each and every week. Always in more sexy and exciting ways!...
287** Starting with Season 3, the series began having more fansservicey scenes. It only got more Hotter and Sexier as time went on.
288** The later seasons in general. They've never exactly shied away from making sexual references but there's a bit more... blatancy in the later ones. Marge getting breast implants, anyone? Or [[GirlOnGirlIsHot making out with Lindsay Neagle]] (in Homer's imagination)? Or the beginning of a lesbian threesome between a group of Marge's [[http://simpsons.wikia.com/wiki/Moms_I%27d_Like_to_Forget old friends?]]
289* In the Creator/FamousStudios ''ComicStrip/{{Popeye}}'' shorts, [[DamselInDistress Olive]] [[InformedAttractiveness Oyl]] was made more attractive so it would make more sense that Popeye and Bluto were fighting over her.
290* ''WesternAnimation/ThunderCats1985'': While the [[http://images.wikia.com/thundercats/images/8/80/Cheetara.jpg original]] Cheetara is still considered sexy by fans, many agree that the [[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110828032841/thundercats/images/4/4f/Cheetara_1223.JPG 2011]] [[WesternAnimation/Thundercats2011 version]] is much sexier. Her new outfit doesn't quite reach the {{Stripperiffic}} point, but it does [[BareMidriffsAreFeminine show her midriff]] and some cleavage. And her hairstyle and figure are similarly "improved".
291* A ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' sketch promotes a theatrical re-release of ''Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey'', updated to include ''Magazine/{{Playboy}}'' model Robin Bain prancing around in nothing but a thong, to keep the movie from becoming "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis really...really...boring!]]"
292* The special episodes of ''WesternAnimation/LaLinea'', titled ''La Sexilina'' and ''Eros Linea'', which have the main character get into situations involving naked women and humping animals respectively.
293* ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'':
294** In the ''ComicBook/NewGods'' comics, Barda's costume is [[http://dc.wikia.com/wiki/Big_Barda_(New_Earth) usually rather modest;]] in ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'', she was made [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PiNQVoX8tuI a little more daring.]]
295** ''Unlimited'', compared to the first series. Several new (and some returning) characters are introduced, many with very [[FanService fanservice-y]] costumes. Examples include Vixen's NavelDeepNeckline, Huntress and Shayera's exposed midriffs, Black Canary (whose basic character model had been used a [[TheOldestProfession prostitute]] in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyondReturnOfTheJoker''), Galatea (an expy of Power Girl, with a [[CleavageWindow similar costume]]), and Fire, who looks basically naked while using her powers. Wonder Woman's "neckline" was also lowered, with [[MaleGaze some shots]] emphasizing the exposed top of her chest, as opposed to a simple cleavage line.
296* The Chipettes from ''Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' are an odd example. They're eight-year-old FunnyAnimal chipmunks yet managed to become this over time. Their first appearances were more on par with their [[DistaffCounterpart Spear Counterparts]] but eventually they began engaging in AgeInappropriateDress often and singing rather inappropriate songs (one is even a thinly veiled IntercourseWithYou song). This began being toned down starting with the ''Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' movies. They were made more chipmunk-looking and wear more appropriate clothes. Even in ''WesternAnimation/ALVINNNAndTheChipmunks'' (where they look humanoid again), they're still not as fanservicey as they were in the 1980s.
297* When [[WesternAnimation/DaisyDuck Daisy]] took off her coat in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'', it was revealed that she wears a very beautiful and colorful dress with a single shoulder strap.
298* Despite its cartoony art-style in comparison to ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'''s {{animesque}} one, ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' is actually Hotter And Sexier than the original. It contains a lot more fanservicey-esque episodes and [[DoubleEntendre innuendo]] than the original.
299* The [[GenderFlip Fionna and Cake]] segments in ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' are much more romance and (implied) sex focused than the normal episodes, and Fionna in particular is drawn a lot more mature looking than her male counterpart.
300* As part of being a DarkerAndEdgier adaption, ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheNewAnimatedSeries'' has far more sexual innuendos than usually seen in a Spider-Man cartoon, female characters often dress in [[FormFittingWardrobe form-fitting clothing]] that [[BareMidriffsAreFeminine bare their midriff]], and while not outright stated, both Harry and Peter are shown to have slept with their respective love interests in two different episodes.

304* A lot of pin ups and centerfolds eventually turn into this. Starting out as standard mild but sexy non-nude modeling, then semi-nude, then completely nude, then explicit poses, soon followed by "insertions" (and possibly hardcore porn, though not always). Basically "''Raunchier and Nastier''". Although whether or not that's a bad thing depends on your taste.
305** Case in point: Teri Weigel. She started her career as a ''Magazine/{{Playboy}}'' Playmate in 1985. Soon after she posed for the more explicit ''Penthouse'' magazine. Eventually, she started appearing in hardcore pornographic movies and magazines and even worked for a while as a legal prostitute at the Bunny Ranch brothel in Reno, Nevada.
306** Other examples are Amber Easton, Meggan Mallone, Tila Tequila, Vicky6, Priya Rai, Brianna Frost and Francine Dee.
307** B-movie actress Sara St.James aka Jacqueline Lovell, although she never did hardcore.
308** This is a typical career progression for the PageThreeStunna. While many girls who do relatively innocuous topless cheesecake shots for [[UsefulNotes/BritishNewspapers national tabloid papers]] go no further than this, it isn't unknown for them to progress to more explicit work in the tried-and-trusted ''softcore - hardcore - filmed pornography'' manner. The career of Jane Warner, described on the PageThreeStunna entry, is a notorious case of how it can go really wrong.
309* A lot of real-life {{Former Child Star}}s will deliberately take on Hotter and Sexier roles when they're older, in an attempt to shed the [[ContractualPurity "innocent child" image]] they've had and be seen as a legitimate adult actor who can take on mature roles. It works better for some than for others. Some would take a step further and to completely erase the innocent child image by becoming a polar opposite of it - in other words: full-on pornstars.
310** See, for instance, Creator/AnneHathaway's switch from ''Film/ThePrincessDiaries'' to films like ''Havoc'' and ''Film/LoveAndOtherDrugs''.
311** Another example is Elizabeth Berkley from ''Series/SavedByTheBell'', who starred in ''Film/{{Showgirls}}'' in an attempt to shed her "good girl" image. It didn't work; the film bombed at the box office and was thrashed by critics, effectively killing Berkley's career.
312** Creator/DanielRadcliffe, who became one of the most famous child actors of all time as lead in the ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' films, received a considerable amount of media interest for his stint in ''Theatre/{{Equus}}'', solely because it involved the then-17-year-old appearing nude onstage.
313** Quasi-inversion: Seeing as she ''started'' her career playing a [[FilleFatale 12-year-old prostitute]] (in ''Film/TaxiDriver''), Creator/JodieFoster had to go the route of "actually doing well in good movies" rather than this. It worked.
314* While the ''Theatre/HalloweenHorrorNights'' event at Ride/UniversalStudios Orlando concentrates mainly on the scares, Universal Studios Hollywood supplements their scares with some eye candy. This comes courtesy of Freddy's Fly Girls, cage dancers dressed up in Freddy's trademark fedora, sweater and claws (and not much else).
315* Halloween costumes in general. First, it was the kids dressing up. Then the adults started dressing up. Then someone decided to make their costume a little more "adult", and soon enough, no one wanted to be the one in the 'lame' costume, and now there is an entire industry devoted to [[SexyWhateverOutfit adopting Rule 34 to the costume industry]].
316* The Fetish Fuel Wiki compared to [[Website/TVTropes this Wiki]].
317* ''AudioPlay/ExitTunesPresentsACTORS''' three [[AlternateUniverse Music Situation]] drama [=CDs=] compared to the drama tracks included in the series proper. The former depicts a Japanese pleasure district (''Yoshiwara Lament''), a duke's harem (''Lunacy of Duke Venomania''), and a boyfriend who wants to go 'further' with his girlfriend (''Ifuudoudou''). The latter is a run-of-the-mill SliceOfLife comedy.
