Why isn't there a picture?: Wet Sari Scene

Go To

I'd think it should be pretty easy to find an image that illustrates this trope. (The following image links are probably not worksafe, because you shouldn't be looking at Fanservice at work! But there aren't any distinct images of nipples, except maybe on Google Image Search.)

Here's some manservice from Lost In Austen: [1]

Here's a guy and a girl in an actual Bollywood example, from Kabhie Khushi Kabhi Gham: [2]

From Dirty Dancing: [3]

Spider Man appreciates this trope. I wonder why?

It's like Keira Knightley is wearing nothing at all! (From (Atonement.)

And Google Images has tons of pictures of wet saris and wet t-shirts.

So, shall we add an image?

Am I the only one who's rather uncomfortable with the image with the rather obvious nipples?

Kind of like some of the ones from here (the second one in particular).

My guess is that it would likely become a contest to see who could come up with the most NSFW, or the one that skirted as close to NSFW as possible.

[up][up] Definitely like this one. Pretty, wet, and SFW.

I believe the second one of those was the previous pic, Willbyr. Why was it pulled? It looks SFW to me.

But, I'd say Gina's one [up][up] here is better.

It shouldnt be one IMO people will think it's just about that and nothing else (doesn't help that the description is horrible horrible horrible.) when the trope is far far broader than that with any Wet See Though Shirt Incident / Wet T Shirt Incident.

Hell the name is killing the trope IMO its too specific for the trope... (puts this trope on my future TRS list number 9 now....)

[up] I haven't actually read the page, so if it covers wet T-shirt scenes, then that would be a decent pic.

Wet T-Shirt should be created as a subtrope.

I think this needs some repair, not just a picture.

Or maybe just a wet clothing supertrope. The page as written seems to be about the bollywood subtrope with everything else shoehorned in at the end as an after thought for lack of a supertrope. I think just making a supertrope in YKTTW would fix things.

I mean, the supertrope isn't even confined to women. Men use it too. It would be better than just trying to expand this one.

Wet Clothing Fanservice Scene sounds like the supetrope

So should we leave it blank until the trope repair shop is available, see what happens (splits, etc) and then sort out images? Save on hassle if things are just going to get mixed around again.

This doesn't need a TRS. It just needs someone to go to the YKTTW and make a supertrope so people stop shoehorning t-shirts into it. We should stick up one of the actual images of Saris.

Wait... we had a Wet Sari Scene trope and not a Wet T Shirt Scene one?

Why?

The old image that was removed without edit reason note:

[up][up]Because saris are cooler.

[up]I vote to put that back up.
