This is Rain. Isn't she pretty? :)
Redirect to Fetish Fuel?
I'm not LGBT. I just think Rain's really cool. Apologies if my humor gets too painful.
Maybe. It definitively seems like the most practical decision.

I mean, according to the OP, that's what it pretty much means nowadays.

While I do not agree (there is usually some correlation between "evil" and "sexy"), I think that any tropeworthy aspects of this could be left to YKTTW.

Well, that's why I agreed turning it into an index but as it is right now it is just Fetish Fuel Station Attendant for villains.
An index for what?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
Sexualized or attractive villain tropes. They're listed on the description.

I believe such an index would better work as a supertrope.

The trope itself is already an index.
Why don't we just strip it down to just an index and give it an Example Sectionectomy?

I would agree with that too.

That's my preferred option. We can YKTTW the real tropes within it later on.

Yes, I concur. We don't need Yet Another List of characters that some troper finds sexy.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
Hi
Would it be possible to limit this to In-Universe examples?
In-Universe examples of what? I don't think anything we could come up with isn't already covered by one of the trope listed.
The only thing I could see here is to make a trope for the associations between "evil" and "sexy".

With more than 8700 inbounds, a rename is kinda off the table.

That's why I want to turn it into an index and create the "real" tropes from scratch. Evil Is Sexualized (or whatever it winds up being called) is certainly a trope, but renaming this to that would wipe out the inbounds, and making Evil Is Sexy into a redirect would probably cause misuse.

Redirecting anything to Fetish Fuel sounds like a terrible idea to me.
Okay, time to dust off an old idea.
A while back, I started a YKTTW called "Imperfect Ideal
, which would be a Missing Supertrope for this and other tropes like All Girls Want Bad Boys.
Basically, it seems that there's some sort of psychological interplay between novelty and sexiness. If we look at the "ideal" mate (as society usually defines it) as someone who is social responsible, fits into an established gender role, and exemplifies other virtues dictated by society, the "Imperfect Ideal" would be someone who bucks one or more of those trends and is attractive because of it. Evil characters are thus sexy because they're mysterious, exciting, rebellious, and a "project" to be tamed.
The YKTTW, however, has kind of stagnated.

I don't see enough trope here for anything to be a supertrope of. We should simply strike the examples here and treat it as an index.

I see a trope in Evil Is Seducing.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman
No, the other one.
I'm not sure exactly what I see, but it all ties into the sin of Lust. That's evil, therefore evil characters are more often designed to instill lust.

I think he's got something there.
Someone named Extraintrovert just took a big edit to the page. Was that legit?
