1'''Basic Trope''': The male members of an alien species kidnap earth women for InterspeciesRomance.
2* '''Straight''': Males from Mars kidnap Alice, for reproduction.
3* '''Exaggerated''':
4** Males from Mars are attracted to only human women.
5** Male martians only want to copulate with human women, since sex with female martians is either dangerous or unpleasant.
6* '''Downplayed''':
7** Males from mars have a fetishistic attraction to humans that doesn't extend anywhere past [[MaleGaze oogling.]]
8** While Martians as a whole are not sexually interested in humans, there is a subset of Martians with a fetish for sex with a radically different sapient species. As the [[RulesOfTheInternet Rule 36]] of the Martian [[WeWillUseWikiWordsInTheFuture GalaxNet]] says: ''If it exists, there is a fetish for it."
9* '''Justified''':
10** Convergent evolution produced human aliens. The aliens are similar to humans, either from convergent evolution or from being TransplantedHumans and/or TranshumanAliens, are horribly inbred due to a DepopulationBomb of their own, and need humans of either gender specifically to revitalise their genepool or suffer extinction.
11** Aliens are [[OneGenderRace Single-Gender Parasitic Species]] that can only reproduce impregnating other species.
12** Human female sex pheromones are the aliens' drugs.
13** The aliens feed from psychic energy, and they find the psychic energy generated by Earth females during sex to be powerful or at least very tasty.
14** The aliens are investigating this "[[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove mysterious]]" sensation that exists in humans.
15** The alien larvae are parasitoids and require a suitable host in order to develop into adult Martians. [[FaceFullOfAlienWingWong Turns out the womb of a human is a good place for incubation]].
16** The aliens have formed a psychic link with the human, but the humans' UsefulNotes/{{Id|SuperegoAndEgo}} overwhelmed them and made the aliens want more of this "[[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove mysterious]]" sensation.
17** The aliens have a HiveMind that went crazy and decided to have sex with human females.
18** Fetishes for Earthlings are fairly popular on Mars.
19** There's a huge [[GenderRarityValue shortage of Martian females]]. Either it's through a {{Gendercide}} event like ThePlague, or it's a permanent feature of their biology.
20** The "Martians" are the descendents of Earth colonists from a race of AdvancedAncientHumans, far back in evolutionary history to have formed a divergent species but not so different that they can't interbreed (possibly with a little genetic tweaking).
21** The aliens are RubberForeheadAliens, so it's not absurd that they would find a human female attractive, even if a little exotic, in the same vein as a GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe to human males.
22* '''Inverted''':
23** HumansAreUgly
24** Females from Venus kidnap Bob, for reproduction or love. In other words, Venus Needs Men.
25** Human males kidnap a GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe.
26** BestialityIsDepraved
27* '''Subverted''': The visiting Martians see Alice as a MoeBlob, and are interested in her for the same reason that humans are interested in hamsters.
28* '''Double Subverted''': But still the aliens eventually mated with her.
29* '''Parodied''':
30** The male aliens ask the women they capture if they'd like to see a movie, go out to dinner, or other normal activities that a dating couple would do.
31** The Martians stop on by and start abducting women on Earth...but before long, another flying saucer stops next to them with blinking blue-and-red lights, and out comes the [[SpacePolice Martian police]], who capture the abductors, cuff them, and set the Earth women free.
32* '''Zig-Zagged''': Not ''all'' the aliens are after Earth women, just a small group of perverts that the others apologize for.
33* '''Averted''': Aliens are not attracted to humans.
34* '''Enforced''': The creators are trying to insert Fanservice in a straightforward Sci-Fi setting.
35* '''Lampshaded''': A woman captured by aliens asks "I can't believe so many different species find human women attractive!"
36* '''Invoked''': An EvilutionaryBiologist modifies human women to exude pheromones that attract aliens.
37* '''Exploited''':
38** A woman seduces her way onto an alien ship to spy.
39** When aliens invade for women, a man begins rounding women up and selling them for a profit.
40** Martians create HalfHumanHybrids to infiltrate the humans.
41** Or: HalfHumanHybrids are used by humans to infiltrate the martians
42* '''Defied''':
43** InterspeciesRomance is forbidden by both worlds.
44** Mardok from Rigil Kentaurus [[HumansAreUgly finds humans to be]] NauseaFuel, and rants of the idea in disgust: "You accuse me of bestial perversion, your species is depraved! Besides, you have no scales, strange hairs on your head and other places, monkey-like feet, no prehensile tail, and look at that weird-colored skin of yours, it isn't even blue! Me with ''them'', how disgusting! Are you all this sexually perverse?"
45* '''Discussed''': "What is it with human females and every single male species?"
46* '''Conversed''': "Why does every writer thinks that we can actually breed with aliens despite our different biology?"
47* '''Deconstructed''':
48** Earth becomes a [[CrapsackWorld whorehouse]] where humans are forced into sex slavery by the aliens.
49** Thanks to BizarreAlienBiology, humans die from the toxic Martian body fluids.
50* '''Reconstructed''':
51** ...And the humans enjoy it.
52** The human-alien sex industry becomes tightly regulated and enforced to ensure that only those humans who are legally able to give consent and actually willingly enter it participate.
53** Humans are able to pull off a species-wide LysistrataGambit on the aliens to extract concessions.
54** Martians extract their sperm and artificially impregnate Earth women.
