Current picture is Just A Face And A Caption. Laconic for All Women Are Lustful says "Women think with their vaginas, supposedly..." Even if and when we get an image of an obviously lustful woman, it won't demonstrate All Women Are Lustful, just This Woman Is Lustful.

Current picture:||

By the standards of this trope, The Vamp is a role model of self-control

Until someone shows me a good picture, I'll say not pictureable.

Somehow, I think it works.

Maybe it's just because that face looks really coy.

I'd say it's very hard to get across unless it were some kind of comic with visible thought bubbles picturing it.

There's gotta be some ridiculous hentai out there that just blatantly states in a hilarious bad panel that any women will eventually lose her inhibitions and let you do anything with her once you get her hot.

Maybe a woman being desperately all over a guy who doesn't want it at all.

After some thinking, I decided that this picturable, and I came up with this. Thoughts?

I like the symbol one, since it shows that this trope deals with thinking about sex.

I think the page is better off with no image than the symbol person thinking about symbols. It is basically just the trope title again. It adds nothing.

[up] I disagree: a page without an image looks incomplete. People who don't read the forum are going to come in and add a picture if we don't. And it's inevitably going to be worse than that one.

That's easy. We leave a commented out line saying we couldn't find a good picture and to start a thread before putting one up. Mostly to head of instances of JAFAAC.

[up][up]We could add a really noticeable comment saying "We decided on the Image Picking forum that this was not picturable. Don't add an image. If you have one that you really think does it, take it to the forum.

[up] That looks like a boy. I guess I see an eye cowlick, but it's not easy to tell.

Also, should I bother going to Trope Repair to see if the Real Life examples ought to be removed? This is not an example that can occur in real life. All women are not anything.

My only problem with the image is that it's not obvious that Panty is a girl.

True, but it's off to the side. I suppose we could assume that anyone that clicked the title can guess that it's a woman in the picture.

Go ahead and delete the Real Life examples. They shouldn't be there.

I do agree the earrings help. She looks like a pretty good image. She might not be the best of all possible images, but she's sound. And she gives me hope of her inspiring someone to spot a better one.

Pink eyeshadow and hoop earrings and she looks like a guy? ;:-|

I'm good with the Panty pics.

Real Life Examples did exist since I heard that most women are lustful

[up]This trope is an absolute. Real Life tends to be rather short on absolutes.

That smirk looks like it could just as easily be about her noticing OTHERS' lust. I'm not sure yet what exactly to suggest for an alternative, but generally speaking, it should make clearer that it's about a woman being lustful (obviously) as opposed to just having something as vague as a smirk.
