Not Tropeworthy: Suspenders Are Sexy

While I'm sure there's a trope about characters wearing suspenders I'm almost certain it has nothing to do with how "sexy" they look with suspenders.

Eee.

Send it to the cutter.

Cut it. It's simply an excuse to drool.

Looks like it's written mainly by one user. No YKTTW archive linked from the discussion page either.

sometimes a character will wear suspenders (or, if you prefer, braces).

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

People Wear Suspenders. So what?

Hang this page.

The examples are just Audience Reaction and one fanservice. There's no point to a list of characters who don't look bad in suspenders.

I don't think we need more of these "random trait + attractiveness" tropes. (Also, what Mikuru said.)

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

Adding another vote to cut

Looks like 10 for cutting so far. Do we still need a crowner?

There are certain types of outfits that a widely enough regarded as "sexy" that I do think that you can argue that using them as such are tropes, and indeed often as not are lampshaded and discussed tropes. Naked Apron, Black Bra and Panties, etc.

But suspenders? I'm not seeing it.

I have a hard time believing even the creator of this page actually finds suspenders sexy (although I'm sure someone out there does).

Cut.

Rule 36.

Anyway, made a crowner.

I suspect that the votes in the thread are alread enough for a cut.

Hm.

Butter Side Down had less wicks and strong support for cut, but had a crowner.

The page's already cut, I see. Requesting closure.

But we need to fix the "We don't have an article" message! It has so many issues!
