The polar opposite of the Casanova Wannabe and the Handsome Lech, this character has a long list of conquests and can bend any woman to his will — even though there's absolutely nothing attractive about him. In fact, he's a sleaze and/or looks like a baboon and/or treats women like garbage. Sensible, self-respecting women may scoff, but if so, he'll pull a clever come-on line on them or practice his patented stare on them and they'll be suckered in just enough to be proven wrong. In some cases, the character is treated as a Sex God even by other characters. In other cases, the character isn't treated as particularly good at getting women — in fact, he might be an outright Casanova Wannabe — and yet, when you actually do the tallying, you realize he's managed to nail about a dozen people, and the entertainment industry being what it is, most of those people are going to be played by good-looking women who should by all means be out of his league. This is especially common in Long Runners, where by nature of the format, even ugly or unpleasant characters tend to accumulate a fair number of love interests, one-off or otherwise. Possibly owing to Most Writers Are Male, Kavorka Women are less common. Men are societally judged to value a women's appearance more than women do men's, so the idea of a genuinely unattractive woman attracting handsome men is considered 'unrealistic'. The closest common example is a Big Beautiful Woman who often has numerous conventionally-attractive men vying for her attention (an archetype with historical precedent in Catherine the Great). The line between Kavorka Man and The Casanova, usually wide, can sometimes be very fine. A Kavorka Man minus the conquests is a Casanova Wannabe. Compare Ugly Guy, Hot Wife. All Girls Want Bad Boys is when the ladies are attracted to a man with a seemingly repellent personality rather than repellent looks. Often arises due to power's allure or being surprisingly good in bed. Contrast The Schlub Pub Seduction Deduction, in which a beautiful woman will only approach an ugly man if she has ulterior motives. Also contrast Handsome Lech, which is basically an inversion of the Kavorka Man, a man that's unsuccessful with the ladies despite being attractive. According to sex therapist Victoria Zdrok, there is Truth in Television to this, due to what she terms "equity theory": what Kavorka Man lacks in obvious attractors, he compensates for with less tangible qualities due to women being more cerebral than they're given credit for. The term derives from the Seinfeld episode "The Conversion". Has nothing to do with Dr. Kevorkian, for which see I Cannot Self-Terminate. Or Madame Kovarian, the Big Bad of the sixth series of the Doctor Who revival show. Or the children's musician Raffi Cavoukian (yes, Raffi has a last name). noreallife |

Olly Reeder from The Thick of It is a weaselly, pale, bespectacled prick who looks like an overgrown twelve-year-old...and over the course of the series beds Angela Heaney, Emma Messinger from the Opposition, and is also depicted as something of a womanizer. This is really very good going in a series that seldom bothers to look at anyone's private lives (because most of them don't have private lives). This does just apply to the character rather than Chris Addison, the actor who plays him; Chris Addison is quite handsome and something of a Bishounen, but underwent a bit of Beauty Inversion to properly play an awkward, constantly-stressed bureaucrat. | |

In the original novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, Roger and Jessica's marriage is portrayed in a very different light and one that wouldn't get past the radar. Roger is a Jerkass A-list film star with an ego and a temper to match. Jessica's entire showbiz career was appearing in "Tijuana Bibles" (cartoon porn) rather than her rather glamorous nightclub singer gig in the film. Their marriage, while not completely dysfunctional, was significantly rockier and more mercenary in nature than it is in the film. | |

Kane is a seven-foot-tall, 300-pound, psychotic monster of a man who is not what most people would consider being good-looking — when not wearing a leather mask, that is. And he's been involved in storylines with quite the share of women in kayfabe such as Tori, Terri Runnels, Lita (although that one didn't exactly start out consensual), and A.J. Lee. And a certain Katie Vick that no one likes to talk about. As Kane himself once said to Terri: "Just because I have a burnt face note Which was clearly not the case when he unmasked that doesn't mean that the rest of my parts aren't working just fine." | |

Bojack Horseman is an overweight 50-something anthropomorphic horse who happens to be a washed-up sitcom actor and personality-wise is very cynical, irritable and unpleasant and yet one of the running gags of the show is that he has a very active sex life. It's also made crystal clear that most of his partners were just looking for some consequence-free sex with a convenient warm body that they never have to talk to again, which he is famous for in-universe. | |

Dimension 20: Gilear from Fantasy High Figg’s non-biological dad is a balding, paunchy wood elf who’s usually got yogurt stains on his shirt and apparently a swollen foot. He’s by far the most pathetic Butt-Monkey loser in the world. Yet incredibly Gilear has had relationships with two of the hottest and most badass elven women in the series Sandra Lyn and Hallariel and even Riz’s Fair Cop goblin mom Sklonda became close to him. Although it’s revealed in a crucial moment in the second season that Gilear is in fact “Hung like a horse� (with the armour of Pride getting caught on his penis) which may go some length in explaining it. | |

Corbin Scargill of Mix Beer With Liquor And You Will Get Sicker is described as being extremely short, greasy, unkempt, and having a hooked nose, but he doesn't seem to notice, or care, how he looks. His self-confidence rubs off on other people, and few seem to care after spending a little time with him. He has casually admitted that he has been around the block a few times, and his actions certainly attest to possessing a degree of experience there. | |

Darkstalkers: Zabel Zarock (Lord Raptor) is Capcom's Kavorka Man. The Australian zombie lusts after fellow undead and Jiang Shi Hsien-Ko Lei Lei, much to her annoyance. This "relationship" is further explored in Namco × Capcom. Subverted if Zabel is still alive or is able to look like his human self, where he is a good-looking rock star. Demitri may be an even better example as the majority of art depicts him as either having the Face of a Thug or an outright Nightmare Face with Scary Teeth but he still has a massive Vampire's Harem and in later media such as the manga, OVA and Namco × Capcom even Morrigan the Sex God succubus wants to boink him as well. Granted some art in the game depicts him as more handsome when not in Game Face and Demitri does have an incredibly muscular physique so Vampires Are Sex Gods seems to be very much at play. In the Udon comics maidens even willingly let him drink their blood and turn them into vampires. |

Sir Lancelot in The Once and Future King by T. H. White. He is known as le Chevalier Mal Fet, "the Ill-Made Knight", as he is short, bow-legged, and catastrophically ugly, to the point of almost being simian. Still, he gets it on with the beautiful Guinevere, just like the traditional myths. It’s a Justified Trope in his case, though, as he’s dedicated his life to being as much of an ideal knight as possible, making him attractive in non-physical ways that most Kavorka Men don’t manage to pull off, either. He also is pursued by Elaine (who was very beautiful when they first met), implicitly because she was smitten with him for saving her. This ends badly for him, as she tricks him into sleeping with her, triggering a huge Heroic BSoD. And she does it later, making him go flat-out mad. |

Suits: Louis Litt, a balding, slightly overweight man. Despite this, at least one attractive woman finds him irresistible. Like Dwight from the Office above, he's intense, smart, and highly capable. He's also a fairly well-off senior member of a top corporate law firm. The woman in question, Shiela Sazs, also dates another corporate lawyer, but a more conventionally attractive one. | |

Frank Reynolds of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is a stubby fat balding man in his sixties who eats garbage, does drugs, treats those around him with callous disregard, and generally seems to be trying to break some kind of depravity record. He's also got a remarkable amount of romantic luck, including a tumultuous (but long) marriage and going steady with a woman young enough to be his daughter. Charlie Kelly is a cross between this and a Clueless Chick-Magnet. He has managed to attract tons of female attention, despite being an alcoholic Cloud Cuckoo Lander with horrible odor and sweating issues, among other things. He also usually disregards other women in favor of the Waitress. In Charlie and Dee Find Love, he even manages to win the interest of the incredibly beautiful and wealthy Ruby Taft, though he was only using her to make the Waitress jealous. |

James Bond in Roger Moore era (especially later on) is having far more success with numerous young women than any wrinkled late 50s man should be. Even Roger Moore himself was squicked out learning he was even older than the Bond Girl Stacey Sutton’s mother in A View to a Kill and helped contribute to him stepping down as 007. | |

Parks and Recreation. Jerry is perceived by most of the cast as an ineffectual, bumbling, fat, sad loser. In truth, he has a ridiculously attractive wife, equally attractive children (Chris dates one for some time and feels he may not be attractive enough for her), and a beautiful house. He does claim however that he was a lot slimmer in his younger years (apparently resembling Chris). | |

While Claude from Octopath Traveler II is fairly handsome, he's also a complete creep and massive Sadist. He also doesn't seem to do much to actually hide his sleazy nature, as Throné and Ori are both completely disgusted by him when they meet him. But somehow, he's managed to seduce and impregnate "countless" women (the player meets several of his children throughout the game, backing up this estimation), and even managed to get one to leave her current lover for him! | |

101 Dalmatians: The Series: Cruella is a female version in the finale. She's portrayed as not being traditionally attractive and with a horrid attitude.

Deadly Premonition has one in Sheriff George Woodman. He's not particularly attractive including a big scar on his cheek and several on his back, is not an adonis in terms of bodybuild, though he does work out, and is more stout and he's a pretty pompous, self-important man. Yet somehow he gained a lot of people for his cult and has several sexual relationships going on. Including two high school students, one of whom is dating the more attractive-looking Quinn. Though two of those relationships are because the people are deeply in love with him. Still leaves questions. | |

Shakespeare's Richard III is a hunchbacked, evil gnome of a man, and yet he woos the lady while simultaneously talking to the audience. Keep in mind that Richard's designs on the throne are in part motivated by his ugliness and poor record with women. ("If I cannot play the lover in these fair well-spoken days, I am determined the play the villain, and hate these well-spoken days.") Literally over her father-in-law's dead body — murdered by Richard's own hand, no less — which, for an extra romantic atmosphere, happens to be still oozing blood from its wounds. Apparently, Anne just can't resist a Magnificent Bastard. Some productions like to play with the idea that Anne herself is ruthless enough to accept Richard's hand just so that she can have a tiara again. | |

The Joker even though he looks a Monster Clown meets Game Show Host with Thin Chin of Sin on his best days and has outright an Nightmare Face at other times, he’s still had the drop dead gorgeous Harley Quinn and Punchline be infatuated with him, this generally gets Hand Waved by his Manipulative Bastard charisma enthralling them but it still seems unbelievable he’d be able to turn women on. Batgirl, Catwoman, Vicky Vale in the 1989 movie and Silver Age women on the other hand more realistically give him “Not even if you were only clown on Earth� responses to his creepy flirting. | |

Pierce Hawthorne on Community is an elderly, bigoted manchild who can and will screw his friends over if it benefits him in some way. Despite this, he has been married seven times, and in the first season, he seduces the replacement Spanish teacher to convince her to let the Spanish 101 class pass after it turned out Chang had been faking his credentials. In the second season he ended up getting engaged to a much younger woman after only one date. Though she turned out to be an agent of corporation trying to pull off a hostile takeover of the company Pierce runs. |

Dragon Ball: Krillin is a short bald dude and one of the universe's greatest butt monkeys, but somehow he dated a knockout like Maron and married the badass and beautiful Android 18, to the surprise of the fans of the series. Mr Satan, (Hercule Satan in the dub) is generally portrayed with an entourage of beautiful women despite looking like a trailer park hick. Though he’s an extremely wealthy Fake Ultimate Hero with a manly mustache so that may explain it. Vegeta similar to the Wolverine example had one of the biggest babes in the series Bulma fall for him and bear his children despite being a particularly short and constantly scowling lug and later in Super Cat Girl Hop wants to scratch his “handsome face�. Granted Vegeta was subject to Progressively Prettier so him being a Chick Magnet is far less jarring than it is with Krillin or Hercule. |

Viktor Krum from the Harry Potter series. He's rather ugly, and pretty awkward socially. However, he is a great Quidditch player, and thus has lots of fangirls due to this. He even manages to successfully ask out Hermione, who had said earlier in the book that he wasn't good looking — though in that case, it was because he was a genuinely nice person and quite shy, and the two remained friends. | |

The Dresden Files plays with this. Dresden himself is a borderline example. He is a Hardboiled Detective (or likes to act the part — he is a PI, but he's an absolute dork) and while he gets laid surprisingly rarely, he has any number of women attracted to him, many supernaturally beautiful. However, there's caveats. First, while he's not the most flattering describer of his own appearance, he's also intensely self-critical with hot and cold running self-esteem issues — other characters' narration indicates that he's actually at least okay looking, and probably better than average. Second, the supernaturally beautiful women are usually supernatural beings interested in him because power attracts and looking to get a handle on him — sex is an easy way to do that. Third, he doesn't actually get laid very often at all due to realistic complications — most people find him shabbily dressed, an intimidating figure, and off-putting/possibly autistic thanks to his refusal to meet anyone's gaze (in this case, because it risks a Soulgaze) and perpetual sarcasm. He's also quite shy and very leery of romance considering how it tends to go horribly wrong. Given that he and his First Love were technically foster-siblings manipulated into it by their Evil Mentor and foster-father, and he spent over a decade believing she'd willingly betrayed him, you can see why he's very shy in the first few books, until he gets closure with her. Fourth, on the mundane side, people think he's a conman or a hitter for the mob, while on the magical side, they think he's two steps away from becoming Darth Dresden. Binder's implied to be relatively successful with women, despite being a middle-aged looking uneducated and uncultured bloke with the demeanour of an ageing London Gangster. While he's got a certain cockney charm (he manages to crack up Charity Carpenter with one of his dirty jokes), it's implied that he mostly relies on the money he gets as a successful supernatural mercenary. More generally, in reference to Binder, Dresden explains to Hannah Ascher, Binder's very attractive female professional partner, that this happens a bit more often among human practitioners of magic because anyone who's on the upper end of hot could depressingly easily be a monster in disguise, getting you to drop your guard. There's consequently a high "twitch factor." |

King of the Hill: Despite Cotton Hill's advanced age, looks, lack of shins, and extremely unpleasant personality, he still scores with various prostitutes and had at least three serious relationships. When Hank finds out he has a half-brother, he angrily asks how many women Cotton slept with, the answer Cotton gave him being 273. That number is doubtless a reckless exaggeration, but those three onscreen relationships speak for themselves. Bill Dauterive is homely, fat, bald, has poor hygiene, zero self-confidence, and a stalker-like crush on Peggy Hill. Yet nearly every episode centered around Bill involves him getting involved with a smart, attractive, successful, kind-hearted woman who genuinely likes him. He usually manages to mess it up by the end of the episode. Dale Gribble is skinny-fat, pasty, balding, a chain-smoking drunk and a barely-sane Conspiracy Theorist who betrays everyone constantly. Yet he somehow married the beautiful blonde Nancy (who, to be fair, has been cheating on him for years with the handsome John Redcorn, who is obviously the biological father of Joseph Gribble, though she eventually broke things off with Redcorn after a romantic dinner rekindled her feelings for Dale) and also managed to attract a beautiful female exterminator (voiced by Janeane Garofalo) and some groupies in the episode where he and Bill compete in hot dog-eating contests. Buck Strickland is old, fat, and balding, not to mention a corrupt Bad Boss and a general scumbag, yet he pulls in an astounding amount of tail. Even Hank thinks Buck has an irresistible way with women, enough to be impressed when Tammy refuses him. Bobby Hill is a kid version of this. He's short, chubby, effeminate, and incredibly immature for his age, yet he has little trouble with the ladies and dates a number of very attractive girls, including Connie, due to his charisma and sense of humor. This is a total contrast to Joseph, who is very handsome but is painfully awkward around women and everyone else to be honest. Boomhauer is a downplayed, yet deconstructed example. He is actually a fairly handsome if skinny-fat (like Dale) man (and one episode mentions that he's missing a toe), but he talks so fast that he's damn-near incomprehensible to anyone he isn't friends with, which makes his excellent skills with the ladies somewhat improbable. One episode reveals that his approach is to simply ask out every attractive woman he sees until one of them says yes, getting rejected 23 times in a row before one woman finally agrees to go out with him. Hank Hill himself could qualify as this. While not ugly, he's rather average-looking with a beer gut, has a foul temper, has difficulty showing emotion to anyone other than his dog or inanimate objects (such as his truck), is hopelessly devoted to his mundane job of selling propane and propane accessories and has some outdated views on life. Yet he's not only married to Peggy, but has had a number of other women express attraction to him, including Buck Strickland's wife "Miz Liz" and mistress Debbie, and a few minor female characters (one of them being a Fair Cop). Of course, being a Happily Married man, he does not reciprocate the affections of the other women. |

Trumpeter Joey "The Lips" Fagan from The Commitments. He's old enough to be everyone else's "da," and looks every bit like a guy nearing 50 with his weather-beaten face, but his soft-spoken charm wins over the band's three female singers — he's seen kissing one of them, has sex with another, and at least gets the last one, who's engaged to a rather boring man, flirtatious with him. As all three girls are still smitten with Joey toward the end of the film, this causes their already-tenuous friendship to completely implode, along with the rest of the band. | |

In Asura's Wrath Deus despite being a wrinkly and pointy nosed looking deity compared to hunky Gods like Asura or Yasha, still inspires deep infatuation and worship from Olga the Aphrodite-esque Sex Goddess. Ironically it’s Deus who is unreceptive to her love, only seeing Olga as a loyal subordinate. | |

Leslie Winkle from The Big Bang Theory as she is rather average looking with an unlikable attitude, and yet Leonard and Howard went out with her for a while and she boasts about having slept with different people in the majority of the time she appears. Leslie is somewhat plausible in that she's usually just after a one-night stand, is a woman who's willing to go to some effort to pick and seduce men who think they have no chance at sex period, can control her personality long enough to get sex, and that most of those men would find not just her intelligence but her sarcasm attractive as long as it was aimed at somebody else. | |

In Twins (1988), Vincent is like this despite being, like most characters played by Danny DeVito, a sleazy jerk. But his first time was at twelve years old... when he seduced a nun. In one scene, a former lover tells Linda, "never sleep with this man, never lend him money, and never believe a word he says!" He cleans up his act by the end, however, ending up Happily Married to Linda. | |

Who Framed Roger Rabbit: Roger Rabbit, an infantile, short, goofy (in both behavior and outward appearance), animated rabbit is married to a gorgeous, fully human, sex bomb, Jessica Rabbit. Justified: Considering that Toons have a significantly different thought process from non-toons, and that literally their entire culture (and very existence as cartoons, no less) revolves around humor, it really shouldn't come as any surprise at all when it's explicitly stated that it's Roger who's the catch and Jessica who's out of her league. (Probably doesn't hurt that he's a movie star either.) In the original novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, Roger and Jessica's marriage is portrayed in a very different light and one that wouldn't get past the radar. Roger is a Jerkass A-list film star with an ego and a temper to match. Jessica's entire showbiz career was appearing in "Tijuana Bibles" (cartoon porn) rather than her rather glamorous nightclub singer gig in the film. Their marriage, while not completely dysfunctional, was significantly rockier and more mercenary in nature than it is in the film. |

Ainz Ooal Gown of Overlord (2012) is a skeleton with glowing red eyes, a Lack of Empathy for human life, and no genitalia whatsoever. Despite this, he's never lacking for suitors. That being said, most of the women swooning over him are the various monstrous inhabitants of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, who have different beauty standards from humanity and are fanatically devoted to him. Of his primary suitors, Albedo and Shalltear, the former is a succubus in love with him because he rewrote her backstory as a joke (literally minutes before she went from a game NPC to a real sentient being), the latter is a vampire who, being undead herself, has no qualms with his skeletal nature and is attracted to his immense power and authority as the ruler of Nazarick. Some of his "conquests" instead swoon over his disguised persona as the Black Knight Momon, who at the very least appears to be human, although under the helmet he's not particularly handsome either (it is strongly implied that the appearance of his Momon illusion is based on what he used to look like back when he was still a Japanese salaryman). | |

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, another aforementioned character customization/ romantic sidequests game. Despite the fact that the "romance" in this game has so little substance, intricacy, or overall game consequence that the comprehensive guide only gives the marriage section two or three pages, the company that developed the game is (in)famous for favoring smoothness and balance of mechanics over logic and realism so much that the end results tend to have outrageous and often comic implications (the previous game allowed anyone with an alchemy table to craft a magic potion of fire resistance from two ordinary hunks of cheese). First, none of the potential partners were designed with specifically romance in mind; they seem to have been selected at random across the board from the already-existing characters, from contract-giving guild leaders to minor characters otherwise barely above background-level. Some are old, some young. Their personalities vary wildly. All the races turn up on this list. The entire roster is always available to you, regardless of your character's age, sex, or even of which race you picked, two of which are anthropomorphic animals. In order to get the option to marry someone, you first need to do something that impresses them — whether this is fetching some firewood, killing ten bears, besting them at fisticuffs or murdering their ex-lover depends on the person. This, however, seems to be true of every fourth or so townsperson by default. |

Darkseid, despite you know being a craggy alien god with stone-like skin has had two wives Suli and Tigra (both now dead) whom were extremely hot. While Darkseid’s immense power and magnetic lordship does explain this to a degree, the fact anyone would find him attractive or arousing is hard to shallow at face value. Wonder Woman in Justice League Infinity for instance is squick-ed out and baffled by the fact her Alternate Self had a passionate romance with Darkseid (albeit a more heroic incarnation of him). | |

Wolverine: Wolverine has had a large number of highly attractive love interests (particularly if they're redheads or Japanese), in addition to having a fairly large female fanbase. This is even though he's a short, hairy lantern-jawed guy with weird hair and a perpetual scowl. Unfortunately, poor Wolvie can never settle down and snuggle because his enemies will harm and/or kill them—or he'll just outlive them due to his extreme Healing Factor causing him to age at a much, much slower rate than pretty much everyone else. Not only that, but Wolverine also has rather poor hygiene (it's mentioned that he rarely bathes or brushes his teeth). The live-action movies seem to write this out (can't pass up the chance to do a Hugh Jackman shower scene). It's also that Wolverine's gruff appearance and brute demeanor belie the fact that he's actually quite brilliant. He's fluent in eight languages and conversational in a dozen more. His world travels, military/espionage training, and great age have allowed him to acquire immense knowledge and skills as well. He doesn't need pheromones to attract women. He does it by being possibly the greatest example of a modern renaissance man. Most of the time, though, it's just his bad-boy persona that attracts people, especially given that he was introduced at a time when antiheroes were relatively rare in comics. Lampshaded in an issue of New Avengers. Echo accuses Logan of hitting on her, but he retorts by saying soon enough she'll be hitting on him, and that there's nothing either of them can do about it. |

It turns out that he's an Artificial Human built from Magitek by Starfish Aliens, so it might not be a natural effect. | |

Vorkosigan Saga: Miles Vorkosigan was poisoned before birth, causing him to have abnormally small stature (self-described in the narration as "ahem-mumble-something under five foot"), a bent spine, one leg several inches longer than the other, a too-big head on a too-short neck, and a face prematurely lined with pain from more bone breaks than he can count. He still manages to sleep around with several gorgeous women throughout the course of the series. It's mostly that his sheer charisma and force of personality completely overwhelm his physical appearance once you actually get to know him. | |

An episode of The Shield features an overweight, homely, trashy young woman who nevertheless has two men fighting over her. It's possible it was a Race Fetish thing, as she was white while they were black, and she would also financially support whichever one she was currently sleeping with. She enjoyed playing them off against each other and would alternate between them every couple of months, but the one she dumped would still desperately pursue her. This ends up backfiring on her, as she and one of the men are found murdered by the other man. | |

Mileena from Mortal Kombat is the Kavorka woman of franchise, as when it comes to her face she is famously quite hideous due to her mouth which depending on the game/timeline is either a little unpleasant or absolutely nasty and she gets frequent cruel remarks at her expense from other characters regarding her appearance. Despite this, Mileena has had more sex than everyone else in the franchise having boned Baraka, Tanya, Reiko and Goro and given birth to least one daughter in her MK11 ending. Of course, there’s no getting past the fact whatever her face may look like, Mileena is still built like a goddess from the neck down, so her conga line of partners isn’t so shocking. | |

Jason from Something*Positive is pretty similar. He has, as Aubrey explains, the right physique to play Santa Claus, and while he can be a really nice guy, he's also known to play horrible tricks on his friends and basically be an egotistical jerk. Still, he gets lots of girls until he gets married. He claims it's because he worked out a psychological formula which allows him to instantly plug into any woman's attraction, though we've never actually seen this process work onscreen. May have something to do with the fact that he has endowments that have been known to frighten webcam girls and offers his partners a contract promising a "minimum of two orgasms per encounter." | |

Vegeta similar to the Wolverine example had one of the biggest babes in the series Bulma fall for him and bear his children despite being a particularly short and constantly scowling lug and later in Super Cat Girl Hop wants to scratch his “handsome face�.

Quark in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is a short, badly-dressed, sexist pig with humongous ears and scary-looking teeth, but he is usually seen with hot women over the course of the series. He's also an alien Ferengi, however, born into a culture where women are second-class citizens with no rights, so in that sense, he's not unusual. Working around humans and other alien races in which equality of the sexes is a given, however, does make him unusual. Most of the women he is seen with are attracted to his wealth and status (and/or are on his payroll), but a few are genuinely attracted to him. Probably his most impressive feat was landing a Klingon mistress, Grilka. In a society that lauds physical strength and detests the cowardly Ferengi on principle, this is totally unheard of (although what attracted her is his courage and straight-up audacity, which are values in both cultures).note Grilka's husband accidentally died in Quark's bar. But due to Quark claiming that he killed the husband, Grilka invoked a rule that meant Quark was now in charge of the deceased Klingon's House — this included marrying Grilka. Due to a chain of events, Quark not only ensured that Grilka could rule the House in her own name, but foiled a plot by a different Klingon to take it over through financial manipulation. The divorce at the end was at his request, though. | |

Winifred Sanderson in Hocus Pocus is subtly implied to be a rare straightforward female example — despite being a buck-toothed, browless, Uncanny Valley Makeup-sporting Wicked Witch (thanks to Bette Midler undergoing significant Beauty Inversion to play the role), with hair seemingly modeled on Elizabeth I’s wildest wigs, most of the adult men in the film treat her as though she’s just as attractive as her sisters Mary (a Big Beautiful Woman, albeit with a nervously contorted mouth most of the time) and Sarah (a Brainless Beauty Hot Witch). The only one who doesn’t is her ex, whom she murdered for cheating with Sarah. The teen boys of the movie, however, find her notably haggish and aren’t afraid to say so, with frequently dire results. | |

Gary of Ménage à 3 manifested this trope after he started attracting female attention, being a plain-looking geek with a haircut that would fit in an Archie comic from the 70s, and no significant social skills, who nonetheless began to accumulate an accidental harem. However, Art Evolution made him look increasingly toned, in a cute sort of way, while he gained an in-comic reputation as an oral sex master, making his appeal less and less inexplicable as the story progressed. | |

Scott Steiner. Steroided all to hell, loud, abrasive, obnoxious, can't go 5 seconds without insulting somebody, prone to random fits of violence... and he has "freaks" (his female fans) in every town just waiting for him to show up and show them a good time. And that's not even going into the various hot valets he had. | |

Seinfeld The trope namer is Kramer, where a Latvian Orthodox priest calls his power over women "kavorka" (meaning "the lure of the animal"). Over the course of the show, he's seduced Uma Thurman, a very devout nun, and a lesbian, offering no explanation other than, "I'm Kramer." This was actually Played for Drama on the episode that named it since he couldn't control the effect and almost destroyed the aforementioned nun's life against his own will, as she was willing to abandon the church just to sleep with him. George also qualifies; among others, he manages to have a date with Marisa Tomei herself at the height of her prestige/hotness.note He doesn't actually manage to sleep with her, but this is only because he was engaged to another woman at the time. This was also repeatedly lampshaded. When George can't have sex with his girlfriend, he gets smarter. Jerry theorizes that George has been devoting most of his brainpower to getting laid, and with that out of the way, he gains a new thirst for knowledge and starts studying textbooks constantly. Eventually, he is able to do things like show up the Yankees by using his knowledge of physics to effortlessly hit multiple consecutive home runs, solve a Rubik's Cube while watching Jeopardy! and getting all the answers correct, and become fluent in Portuguese accidentally just from hearing the cleaning woman at his job speak it. Which indicates that he normally puts a lot of effort towards getting laid. The episode shows that this is true for all men, not just George, but it's probably safe to say he needs to put in more effort than the average man. In one episode, a woman decides to cheat on her husband with him simply because he told her "God bless you" when she sneezed, which her husband never does. When Elaine tries to apply this to her own life however, it's revealed that the opposite is true for women as the chaste Elaine becomes gradually dumber by the hour until she finally gets laid and recovers her slipping intelligence. "The English Patient" does this with both George and a rival named Neal who is described as looking just like George but even shorter and stockier yet was dating a woman played by the beautiful Chelsea Noble Cameron who George is able to seduce away from him almost entirely by accident. Newman has also been out with some very attractive women. Jerry learns this the hard way when he realizes he is dating one of Newman's exes. Although as horrifying as that revelation was, it still wasn't nearly as bad as learning that he broke up with her for not being attractive enough. The idea that this woman — or any woman, for that matter — is somehow too ugly for who he considers being the most repulsive man on the face of the earth, is too much for Jerry to handle, and he can no longer bring himself to kiss her. Despite being the Trope Namer Kramer actually has the fewest number of romantic pairings of the four main characters by a large margin. He has 27 partners over the course of the show, compared to Elaine's 50, George's 62 and Jerry's 73, although that could've been a question of focus (Kramer does his own thing a lot), and in any case—as noted—George counts as well. Still, for an unemployed "hipster doofus" with no filter on his thoughts and a clumsiness that borders on making him dangerous to be around, he does pretty well. |

Downplayed with Dante Hick from Clerks and Clerks II. While not portrayed as unattractive, he's still a spineless Manchild with commitment issues and a tendency to whine about everything, especially when he finds out that his girlfriend sucked 36 dicks before they got together. In spite of this, both films are plotted around him winding up in a love triangle with two women considerably out of his league. Lampshaded by Randal in the second film. | |

Final Fantasy VII Remake has Don Corneo. He is an unattractive man, but somehow manages to net himself a new "bride" almost every evening. Once he's bored of them, however, he feeds them to his pet monster. Leslie's backstory and NPC dialogue indicates that many women who find their way into his bedchambers may actually just be down on their luck and tragically resort to becoming his brides in the hopes that a night with the Don will net them enough money to get them back on their feet again. | |

Star Trek: Quark in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine is a short, badly-dressed, sexist pig with humongous ears and scary-looking teeth, but he is usually seen with hot women over the course of the series. He's also an alien Ferengi, however, born into a culture where women are second-class citizens with no rights, so in that sense, he's not unusual. Working around humans and other alien races in which equality of the sexes is a given, however, does make him unusual. Most of the women he is seen with are attracted to his wealth and status (and/or are on his payroll), but a few are genuinely attracted to him. Probably his most impressive feat was landing a Klingon mistress, Grilka. In a society that lauds physical strength and detests the cowardly Ferengi on principle, this is totally unheard of (although what attracted her is his courage and straight-up audacity, which are values in both cultures).note Grilka's husband accidentally died in Quark's bar. But due to Quark claiming that he killed the husband, Grilka invoked a rule that meant Quark was now in charge of the deceased Klingon's House — this included marrying Grilka. Due to a chain of events, Quark not only ensured that Grilka could rule the House in her own name, but foiled a plot by a different Klingon to take it over through financial manipulation. The divorce at the end was at his request, though. There is also the Running Gag of the alien barfly, Morn, always being accompanied by a stunning woman. Supposedly he's a good conversationalist. Another joke is Jadzia Dax shooting down any and all advances from Dr. Bashir, only to go out on a date with Captain Boday. One of these men is a handsome doctor with a British accent and (we are led to understand) a long line of sexual conquests. The other has a see-through head. Being Really 700 Years Old, Dax has been around the block enough not to be bothered by Bizarre Alien Biology. She did not, however, ever hook up with Morn; she claims it's because she considered him out of her league. Quark's brother Rom is another example: worse dresser than his brother, even worse teethnote (interestingly, one episode shows that he had a very nice tooth sharpener as a child, while Quark had to use a stick. So by Ferengi standards, Quark may be the one with bad teeth), and lacking the rudimentary smarts his brother has — though he does have a knack for fixing things. By the end of the series, he's married Leeta, one of Quark's Bajoran Dabo girls who are definitely hired for their looks. In this case, it actually was frequently commented on, and even Rom was bewildered by his good luck; at one point he had himself half convinced that Leeta just wanted his money, so he donated it all to charity just to make sure. |

Super Mario Bros.: Mario, a short, eccentric Italian plumber with a round big nose and high Mickey Mouse-like falsetto, nevertheless manages to be a Chick Magnet, especially in the Paper Mario games. Apparently, Pauline, Peach, and in one case, Daisy all dig the 'stache. And the nice guy-ness, too. (Some fans have unique interpretations of this...) Wario, his rival and occasional nemesis, is out-of-shape, stubby little legs, has bags in his eyes, a pink garlic-shaped nose and a crooked mustache while being openly greedy. Yet he still manages to be an accidental Chick Magnet, as Mona, Princess Shokora and even his archenemy Captain Syrup all show differing levels of interest in him. Must be the muscles (and, in Mona's case, Wario's fashion sense). Super Mario RPG has Booster, an Expy of Wario's original characterization (a fat, ugly, messy bearded and cross-eyed Manchild who has no touch with reality) who starts the game by wanting to marry Princess Peach only to have a big party, and who leaves after he got the party he wanted. The end of the game reveals he seduced Valentina (a vain villainess with an Impossible Hourglass Figure who usurped the throne of a kingdom before meeting him) only by whispering something at her ear. Whatever it was, it shows that he has well-hidden qualities. |

Chode on Tripping the Rift sort of explains this trope by saying that only women's attractiveness is based on looks, and men's attractiveness is instead based on how much money they have. He explains this, of course, as he is happily counting a very large amount of money the crew had just received and adds "and right now I'm one attractive guy." | |

Dan from Bamboo Blade, despite being Gonk, has Miya-miya for a girlfriend. He also managed to get the American Carrie interested in him. His reason for wooing both of these girls? His resemblance to an armadillo/pangolin. The fact that he's ranked 3rd in his year in school (out of 390), is an excellent artist, is shaping up to be better at kendo than the guy with regular proportions, and is a devoted boyfriend sure helps. | |

In Mansfield Park, the Bertram sisters' first assessment of Henry Crawford is that he's short and plain, and the narrator notes he's not handsome. On their second meeting, he's still plain, but his teeth are good and his manners are so charming—and on the third they won't suffer him to be called plain by anybody. Henry makes full use of his charms of personality to be an Intentional Heartbreaker, flirting with both Bertram sisters at once and then turning his attention to Fanny when he realizes she doesn't like him at all. | |

Mimi from The Drew Carey Show is obese and slathers on makeup with a trowel (not to mention being kind of a sadistic Jerkass), yet has a long list of sexual conquests, including no less than three famous rock musicians, one of whom she was married to for a couple weeks. This was lampshaded when a woman she briefly hired for a "Mini Mimi" joke showed up again in a later episode and revealed she had ended up maintaining the look when it inexplicably led to her getting more partners. | |

The eponymous Dan of Dan Vs.. He's a short, unkempt, paranoid, violent, foul-mouthed malcontent who lives in filth, enjoys "wanton destruction," and is obsessed with taking revenge on any person, thing, or force of nature who he believes has wronged him, often not caring about anything or anyone besides himself (save for his cat Mr. Mumbles and his friends Chris and Elise, and even this can be spotty.) Despite all of this, some very attractive women take an interest in him. It never works out for one reason or another, but still. | |

Blitzo from Helluva Boss. In "Spring Break", his friends are shocked to hear he dated a pop star and ask things like "Is she brain damaged?" But he's also charmed a demon prince and any amount of random people at parties. While he could be impressive and count as accomplished if you only count the positive things, he tends to ruin it by acting like a hyperactive, rude (even by Hell standards) and insecure jerk all the time. | |

Thanos despite being looking like a muscly Grimace and being a deformed by Titan standards has had a literally cosmic amount of sex with Thanos’s origin story revealing much like his brother Eros he’s shagged his way across the universe, bedding numerous multicoloured humanoid space babes resulting in loads of bastards (whom he later kills along with their mothers to appease Death). Even the Asgardian goddess Hela became infatuated with him and took it very badly when Thanos dumped her to be with the proper Death again, rather than just the goddess of Death. Ironically however when She-Hulk (a Sex God of Marvel) tackled Thanos once in a fight she was more appropriately repulsed by the experience. | |

Archie. At one point Betty and Veronica realise that he's a stupid, boorish, selfish, average-looking jerk and they both decide they should break it off with him... and say "You first." They then wonder why they can't give him up. Archie shows up, they pounce, and he thinks to himself that his good looks, intelligence, and charm have done it again. Justified depending on the particular story. Some have it that he's particularly sweet, charming, or modest, especially compared to boys like Reggie. This was particularly prevalent for the first 50 or so years of the series' existence: Up to the early 1960s, Archie was decidedly goofy-looking, adopting a more average, yet still rather cartoonish appearance via Art Evolution (and some help from a changed wardrobe). Then, at one point during the 1990s, he began to be referred to as rather handsome (again helped by a change on his clothing). |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Tyrion Lannister despite being a disfigured and Depraved Dwarf gets laid far more then you would expect though granted the beautiful woman he sleeps with the most, Shae, is a prostitute taken into his service and moment she gets a better opportunity she takes it and betrays Tyrion. In the show Tyrion is shown sleeping with far more women but here he’s played by the handsome Peter Dinklage so his success with babes is more believable, not to mention Shae being in genuine love with him in this version and betraying him out of jealousy of Sansa. Samwell Tarly despite being a overweight loser has the attractive wildling girl Gilly fall for him and become his lover, though of course Sam’s heroism and nice guy-ness compared the sheer abuse she’s suffered from other men in her life plays a large part in this. Aegon IV Targaryen despite being described as a king to be a hideous Fat Bastard had countless lovers. Though granted his most noteworthy romantic conquests, such as his super hot cousin Daena whom he freed from the Maidenvault, were when he was younger and just as much a Pretty Boy as most other Targaryen princes. It’s made clear later in life he’s just a Dirty Old Man who used his power to force numerous women whether they were married or not into sleeping with him. In fact by the time of his death Aegon IV was so obese and gross many wondered how his last mistress could even endure his embrace. |

However, the author Oda later draws a sketch for the fans as well as in-story flashbacks that show that during her youth Big Mom was quite attractive. She just got uglier as she got older. Catarina Devon, one of the Blackbeard Pirates has a curvy body paired with a Butter Face. She's an extremely powerful individual in her own right, that Even the Girls Want Her. |

Bender from Futurama. He's a rude, amoral, alcoholic, kleptomaniac robot who's hooked up with countless fembots and even a few human women, though this may be chalked up to All Girls Want Bad Boys. It's also implied that he's considered extremely handsome by robot standards. They also lampshade Kissinger's success when Nixon is lauding his diplomatic skills. Phillip J. Fry can be considered this as well. He's considered a dim-witted, ugly loser (and one episode suggests he has a small penis) but he still manages to get plenty of attractive women without much effort. His nice-guy personality no doubt plays a factor. Another episode implies he's apparently not that great in bed, either... by showing a large group of women (all of whom appeared in prior episodes) at his funeral going "ehhhhhhh...� though granted that was All a Dream by Leela no less. |

Tomoko Kuroki, of No Matter How I Look at It, It's You Guys' Fault I'm Not Popular!, slowly develops into this over the course of the manga. She has No Social Skills to an extreme, is a huge perv and a bit of a maladjusted jerk, and is, at-best, average-looking, with a skinny and unathletic build and permanent Exhausted Eye Bags. And yet, over the course of the series, at least four major female characters, all of whom seem to be well out of Tomoko's league socially, have either definitely fallen for her or have done so in all but name. Tomoko is aware of absolutely none of this. | |

The page image above is of café owner René Artois from 'Allo 'Allo!, who is a fat, middle-aged, balding, greedy, cowardly fool whose noblest aim throughout is to avoid being shot by any of the sides in the war who are using him for their own ends. His waitresses are constantly hanging off him and he has virtually every woman in the cast at some point — and even gets a few guys chasing him. The exception is Resistance leader Michelle, who makes it clear she doesn't know what everyone sees in him (though she pretends otherwise to manipulate him into doing what she wants). | |

In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy, Zaphod Beeblebrox, the two-headed, three-armed President of the galaxy, is implied to be this. He has been described as the "best bang since the big one" by Eccentrica Gallumbits, the triple breasted whore of Eroticon Six. He stole Trillian away from Arthur who was unsuccessfully trying to initiate a conversation with her during a party on Earth. Zaphod is not very bright, and was voted several times "The worst dressed sentient being in the known universe." And in adaptations, he's usually played by actors who while not exactly hideous are still not known for being conventional lookers. He may be President of the Galaxy, but he holds no real power whatsoever. His function is solely to direct attention away from those who hold actual power. | |

The Venture Bros.: Doctor Rusty Venture — a skinny, bald, hunched, pale Jerkass with enough neuroses to fill a few books — has managed to get a surprising amount of tail. Ironically, he has very little romantic luck when he's trying; whenever he decides to hold off on the terrible pickup lines and cheap suits and opens up a little about his problems, he can be quite the charmer. To wit, Doctor Quym, Sally Impossible, Myra, Nikki Fictel, and Doctor Mrs. The Monarch have all shown varying (and sometimes impressive) degrees of interest. The Alchemist is, by his own admission, paunchy middle-aged gay guy with a bald spot and a wrinkled face, and yet manages to catch the eye of the younger and hunkier Shore Leave. |

Caesar of Fate/Grand Order is so fat as to border on spherical (apparently as a result of a botched summon), but still keeps things up with his old bride Cleopatra, and can usually provoke a blush from most other female characters—keep in mind that pretty much every other character in the game is ridiculously attractive. This one is given some justification, as ever; while Caesar isn't much of a looker, his skillset is based on his status as a great orator and leader, and as such, he is The Social Expert to an almost supernatural degree. | |

In Love Never Dies, the Phantom who is The Grotesque in the original book and musical not only has the beautiful Christine bare his child and choose him over Raoul here, but Meg is in love with him also and kills Christine so she can try and have him for herself. All of this flies in the face of the original novel, which painstakingly explained Christine is enraptured by the Phantom’s music rather than Erik himself, who she cannot helped but be repulsed by (despite genuinely pitying him) and at one point tries to kill herself when faced with the prospect of marrying Erik and Meg was no less terrified of him. Not helping matters is that the Phantom is a rich socialite here rather than a madman who lives under the Opera house like in Leroux’s original, making the fact he’s deformed in many ways pointless. Of course, Andrew Loyd Webber seeing the Phantom as his Author Avatar does explain this to some degree. Actually Older Than They Think as Love Never Dies is similar to Phantom by Susan Kay which features Christine having a night of passion with Erik that gets her pregnant and the fact he looks and smells like a walking corpse somehow not impacting Christine here as it most certainly did in the original novel. |

He's revealed to be sleeping with a significant number of women on his job route, and since he's spending more time screwing instead of his job (plus Craggy Island's primary Catholic ties) this costs him his job when his bosses find out. To a less exaggerated extent, Bishop Len Brennan, an elderly, self-absorbed Jerkass who's broken his vows of celibacy with several much younger women. |

Life on Mars (2006) and Ashes to Ashes (2008): DCI Gene Hunt is "an overweight, over-the-hill, nicotine-stained, borderline alcoholic homophobe with a superiority complex and an unhealthy obsession with male bonding" who treats women "like beanbags". The number of times he has spoken to a woman without mentioning something rude can be counted on one hand, and even the people who genuinely like him find him brutish. Tales of his sexual prowess mostly come from himself, but the staggering number of female fans willing to give it up for the Gene Genie possibly makes him a semi-real-life example. Alex Drake, protagonist of Ashes to Ashes (2008), falls for him, and let's not forget the boatload of HoYay he has with LifeOnMars protagonist Sam Tyler. There was an inversion of this trope with chain-smoking, butch WPC Phyllis Dobbs. She nevertheless refers to herself as a "sex goddess" and has a healthy appetite for it, which even Gene acknowledges in his backhanded manner. |

The title character of Horatio Hornblower considers himself one. Though he attracts the affections of almost every woman who knows him for more than five minutes, when his first wife is pregnant for the first time he finds himself hoping the child doesn't have his looks, and in books set later in his life, he ruefully contemplates his thinning hair and unthinning figure. However, Hornblower is a thoroughly Unreliable Narrator when it comes to assessing himself (his other wish for the child is that they don't have his unhappy, self-critical temperament either) so it's debatable how much this trope really applies. The best assessment is probably the first book's neutral description of having a face neither handsome nor ugly. (For what it's worth, Hornblower's been played in film and tv by Gregory Peck and Ioan Gruffudd, so Unreliable Narrator really comes into play there.) | |

Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones could be considered this, being a dwarf — something even more discriminated against in Westeros than real life — however, this is offset by his wealth, family prestige, his wit and intellect, and the fact that it's implied nearly every woman he sleeps with is a prostitute. He's only been in a serious relationship with a woman twice in his life, and both times it ended horribly. It's indicated he has large genitals too. | |

Spider-Man: Norman Osborn gets laid a lot more than you'd expect, considering he's in his forties with a 20-something son and weird hair. But he got down with such megababes as Gwen Stacy and Lily Hollister as well as had the gorgeous Lyra make out with him while overvaluating. The former two of whom were young enough to date his son * Both of whom did date his son. Lily was actually still with Harry when she and Norman slept together . Though Gwen sleeping with Norman got mercifully retconned in The Amazing Spider-Man (2018), to the point of it being lampshaded in-story that Gwen would have never in her right mind had sex with a craggily evil businessman like him. Mac Gargan as Venom in Dark Avengers manages to form a harem out of and sleep with the contestants of the Miss Big Apple Contest when pretending to be the judge and none of the women are put off by the fact he’s a evil inky black monster man with More Teeth than the Osmond Family. Granted he’s a Villain with Good Publicity at this point, but still there’s open mindedness and then there’s this. |

The Incredible Hulk despite being a green (and occasionally grey) behemoth in his Hulk form has gotten laid by super babes an astonishing amount of times such as Jarella, Red She-Hulk (his wife Betty), Marlo Chandler, Caiera and Umar Dormammu‘s sister. Not to mention other hotties and dark action girls such as Amander von Doom and Atalanta expressed attraction to him with former all too keen to go green. Granted Depending on the Artist Hulk can look fairly handsome and his Smart Hulk persona is notably more good looking, but most of the time he’s a straight up ogre-esque monster with a broad flat face making his highly accomplished sex life strange to say the least. | |

Sugar in The Crimson Petal and the White is described as having "mannishly large" hands and feet, no curves, and a non-contagious yet incredibly obvious skin disease which causes her body to be permanently afflicted with angry red stripes. Yet she not only finds lucrative work as a prostitute but becomes incredibly popular with wealthy and intelligent clients since she's one of the few women who provide good companionship and can interact with them as an intellectual equal. In the TV adaptation, however, she's played by the very attractive Romola Garai. | |

The former member of Wallace & Gromit is a bald paunchy middle-aged Bungling Inventor with a fairly childish (though friendly) personality and an abiding love of cheese. But of the four shorts and a film that make up the series canon, three of them involve him picking up a new love interest. Admittedly, all three women were relatively close in age to him and one of them was a Black Widow, but it's still a far more common plot for the series than anyone would expect from looking at him. | |

Attraction at that point would probably be verging on Admiring the Abomination, but she's noted in-universe and out for a fairly extensive collection of admirers, flings, and long-term boyfriends, who generally only part with her upon dying in battle (which happens surprisingly often). | |

Ben from The Graduate. He's unemployed (having just graduated) and doesn't seem to have any prospects, and is never presented as particularly handsome. The script makes it pretty clear he was a virgin (he denies it, but not convincingly.) And yet Mrs. Robinson seduces him, and then later her daughter ditches her whole life, including the man she literally just married, to run off with him. Their actions don't have much to do with him: the mother is lonely and looking for some young meat, while the daughter is dissatisfied and looking to rebel, an act she clearly begins to regret in the closing shot. | |

Two and a Half Men Alan manages to get together with many women such as Judith, Frankie, Brainless Beauty Kandi, Melissa, and Lyndsey. This is despite him being effeminate, spineless, a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, a Cosmic Plaything, broke, and not really all that attractive. Alan is arguably a deconstruction, since the women he attracts tend to not be very desirable (i.e. older women, women who are emotionally/psychologically damaged, or women who are just all around bitches). Lampshaded in one episode where he met an older woman on a dating site. Her words: "You're male, you're straight, and you've got a job." Jake becomes one in later seasons. He's unattractive, immature, obnoxious and dumb as a stone, but manages to hook up with an attractive neighbour, has a threeway with two cute girls while in high school (and at the age of 16, to be exact). He also had sex with a 24-year-old woman, after lying about his age. In season 10, he went out with a 36-year-old who had three kids, one of which was older than him. By that point, he was of age. Lampshaded: |

He's a hairy-chested guy with a fro and a beard who looks about twenty years older than her, with a tendency towards cheap suits and come-ons pulled from Saturday Night Live, but... well, he married Donna Troy, a superheroine who basically looks like, and sometimes is, a younger Wonder Woman — and her friends considered him to be quite a catch for her! The intended message was that he was such a charmer and she was a Nice Girl enough to notice him; more often, readers found him oddly slimy and noted his uncanny resemblance to his creator. | |

The Wire: Bunk Moreland is fat, kind of lazy, smokes too many cigars, is probably an alcoholic, has one hell of a bad attitude (especially towards women), and rarely has a kind word for anyone. He also regularly cheats on his wife with a succession of beautiful women, who cannot seem to resist his attractions. | |

Joe in Punch an' Pie. He's a huge guy with an irritatingly uptight manner who nonetheless claims that few women can resist his "charms." The gigantic fistful of phone numbers he gathered in a few hours attests that he is telling the truth. | |

Holy Smoke!: PJ is not particuarly good-looking. Even so, he has sex with two different beautiful (and much younger) women during the film, Ruth and Yvonne, while it's also revealed he's got a committed girlfriend too, Carol, who's also quite attractive. Both of them even come onto him and not the opposite. | |

Goes both ways with Spoony's Spooning With Spoony. His persona is a smarmy, self-admitted rapist who makes videos about his sexual conquests and enjoys taunting them on how stupid they've been. Out of the six people he's spooned, That Chick With The Goggles, Benzaie and Bennett The Sage loved every second of it. On the other hand, The Nostalgia Critic got roofied and was so traumatized that he was mute for a while, The Nostalgia Chick ended up breaking down in tears and Angry Joe tried to kill him. | |

Medieval II: Total War: Princesses who have the "Flawed Features" or even "Hideous" traits can nevertheless have a high Charm score. That is, even though they're considered physically unattractive in-universe, they can still make up for it with other traits (such as intelligence, loyalty, diplomatic skill, charisma, courage, passion, warmth, humility, etc) and thus stand a good chance of finding a suitor. | |

Takuma in Val × Love is a precociously large young man whose ugliness and size actively frightens people to the point where classmates are prone to accidentally falling through windows trying to get away from him; he has the In-Series Nickname "Akuma" ("Demon") as a result. He's actually a Gentle Giant with severe social anxiety whose capacity for bravery is quite a turn-on to his Battle Harem of valkyries. | |

Jimmy Hopkins of Bully. Part of gaining control over each clique is wooing the top girl in it. He's nice, sure, but there's probably a reason for that. He barely has to do anything except offer a few compliments to get near any girl he wants to start making out with him in public. | |

"Love Me Tender," an episode of The Golden Girls, features Dorothy dating Eddie, a short, bald, and totally bland man (played by John Fiedler, aka Piglet ... or, for those who remember the The Bob Newhart Show, Mr. Peterson) who not only has no personality but is still desperately pining over his ex-wife (on his and Dorothy's first date, he takes her to Roberta's—the restaurant said ex-wife, who is named Roberta, owns). Despite all of that, though, Eddie is a phenomenal lover, and his and Dorothy's relationship is purely physical. When the other girls try to help Dorothy break up with him, they too fall under his spell, and even Sophia leaps into his arms to give him a hickey. Surprisingly, in the end, the writers take the trope apart: Eddie explains that he absolutely hates the fact that he can irresistibly turn on women. He knows that they find him sexually appealing but otherwise a complete nobody, and any woman who's actually worth dating inevitably leaves him because they realize that sex alone isn't enough for a strong relationship. Dorothy's ex-husband Stan is not much for looks or charm, but never has a shortage of beautiful women ready to butter his buns. Being an Uncle Pennybags helps. |

Yet he still manages to be an accidental Chick Magnet, as Mona, Princess Shokora and even his archenemy Captain Syrup all show differing levels of interest in him. Must be the muscles (and, in Mona's case, Wario's fashion sense). | |

Silicon Valley: Erlich is a fat, arrogant slob, but he's pretty successful with the ladies. The awkward, average-looking Extreme Doormat Jared has no trouble attracting women and doesn't understand why anyone is surprised. Deconstructed by Dan Melcher. He's a fat, bespectacled nerd but has been married and/or engaged to three beautiful women. They all end up cheating on him. His second wife appears to have initially gotten together with him out of sympathy/pity after his first divorce; and his third fiance was apparently burned out after a series of relationships with handsome jerks and "settled" for an unthreatening Nice Guy like Dan. |

The Walkyverse's Joe Rosenthal is a split between The Casanova and a Kavorka Man: he's got looks, brains, and superhuman strength, but he took an approach that was so direct that it should have earned him a lot of slaps in the face. It never did. This may actually be one of his superpowers, though. For some contrast, his Dumbing of Age incarnation has admitted at least some of his game was all talk, and he's made a lot of enemies after his sex list was hacked and leaked, but on the other hand he's canonically slept with Roz, Penny, and Malaya (the latter after the sex list was leaked too). |

Yet he has had a string of romantic encounters with very attractive women, including as the Dark One, although in most cases those were Evil Sorceresses attracted to his power. Even his pre-Dark One wife Mila was very pretty. | |

Despite this however her hunky boxer boyfriend Aoki is deeply infatuated with her and they have quite a lot of sex. It probably helps that Tomiko has a very curvaceous body. | |

In The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, Nicolas Cage plays Terrence McDonagh as a cross between Richard Nixon and Laurence Olivier's version of Richard III, but he still has Eva Mendes for a girlfriend and Fairuza Balk practically dragging him into bed. Really, most Nicolas Cage roles, particularly in recent years, count as this. Cage was never a conventionally attractive or charismatic man, yet no number of bad toupees have prevented his on-screen characters from having romantic liaisons with a range of Hollywood stunners, including Meg Ryan, Angelina Jolie, Penélope Cruz, Jessica Biel, and January Jones. |

Stargate Atlantis: The episode "Irresistible" features Richard Kind playing an obvious con man who has six wives and an entire town eating out of his hand. The main characters can't figure out why he has this effect on everyone and spend much of the episode wondering aloud at it. It turns out that he's been making an elixir from an alien herb that causes him to emit pheromones that no one can resist. Sheppard has a cold and is immune to the effect, which is the only thing that stops all of Atlantis from falling under his spell. | |

Hey Arnold!: Helga G. Pataki has had at least four boys fall for her over the course of the series (Brainy, Stinky, Arnold's creepy cousin Arnie, and eventually Arnold himself). This is despite the fact that she's scrawny, physically unattractive (Big Ol' Unibrow, potato nose, billy goat-like ears, large overbite, and questionable fashion choices) and a bully. While Helga does have a Hidden Heart of Gold, only Brainy knows this from the start and Stinky and Arnie never find this out. Arnold doesn't think much of Helga at first due to her always bullying him to cover up her massive crush on him, but over the course of the series, he gets to know the real Helga and by Hey Arnold! The Jungle Movie they officially get together. | |

He was also baffled when he added Senor Koquonfaes (a Mii who had abused the face editor to give him a cock instead of a face) to the roster of Tomodachi Life, only to discover him becoming the most popular Mii around and accumulating multiple romantic interests (finally ending up with X from Jam). | |

Street Fighter: Among the World Warriors it appears to be a Running Gag that most of the Gonk or unconventionally cool fighters such as Dhalsim, Hakan and Rufus all have stunningly beautiful wives or girlfriends. E.Honda lacks the good looks of fellow Japanese fighter Ryu being a hulking Sumo yet many beautiful women flock to his bathhouse and Ms. Fanservice Chun-Li herself asks him out in IV. Though in other games Chun-Li makes it more clear she’s just interested in making use of his spectacular bathhouse rather than actually dating Honda himself. F.A.N.G believe it or not is this, as the sexy A.K.I from SF6 is completely infatuated with him to the same dreamy-eyed extent that Sakura is with Ryu, despite F.A.N.G being a Fu Manchu looking creep. |

In the How I Met Your Mother episode "The Naked Man," a guy named Mitch (who's broke, out of shape, balding, talks about nothing but fantasy football, and it's implied, doesn't have a very impressive male organ) still manages to hook up with Robin and, he tells us, a bevy of past dates by using the Naked Man technique. Step 1: Arrange a date with a woman. Step 2: Find an excuse to go up to the woman's apartment. Step 3: Wait until the woman leaves the room. Step 4: Strip completely naked. Step 5: When the woman returns, your sheer bravado (and a little bit of pity on her part) will get her to strip naked. And then it's on! (Two out of three times, anyway) He admits that he is one of these. Barney was originally envisioned as one, being described as John Belushi type, but Neil Patrick Harris got the part. |

Suske en Wiske: Tante Sidonia is a thin woman with large feet, a long nose, glasses, a hideous quiff, and virtually no breasts. Yet there have been men who were in love with her. Though her recurring suitor is the Jerkass Lambik. | |

Bridge of Birds: Lotus Cloud, the so-called "most expensive woman in China" looks like exactly what she started out in life as — a broad-footed, flat-faced peasant, so plain as to make a mud fence look attractive. The hero/narrator looks at her and finds himself wondering why anyone wastes any time on her When She Smiles directly at him — he immediately throws himself to his knees at her feet and wraps his arms around her thighs, declaring his unending love and devotion to her. She nicknames him Boopsie. | |

Frasier: Maris Crane, all the more impressive given she never appears in the flesh. She's a spoiled, selfish, demanding, quite possibly out-and-out mentally disturbed woman who many times is said to be not remotely conventionally attractive, being dangerously underweight and so thin and tiny she can hide behind breadsticks... and yet twice she has men inexplicably attracted to her regardless. The second time outright baffles Niles, because the man in this case gushing about Maris is her marriage counselor, and yet he's talking about how warm and caring Maris supposedly is (Niles wonders if there's just some mistaken identity going on. There isn't). | |

Pavi Largo from Repo! The Genetic Opera is a sex-obsessed, hideously disfigured maniac whose bearing borders on Flamboyant Gay and who wears the faces of dead women stapled over his own scars, and yet in virtually every scene he's in, women are giggling, hanging on his arms and fondling him. The fandom seems to agree with them. In all fairness, he is played by Nivek Ogre, who fairly oozes charm, and his father signs their paychecks. | |

The Sopranos: Tony Soprano is an overweight, chauvinistic, sociopathic criminal and yet sleeps with a variety of very good-looking women (not just strippers/prostitutes from the Bing) such as Irina (and her one-legged cousin), Gloria Trillo, Valentina La Paz, and Juliana Skiff (all of whom look like his mother — and one of whom even acts like his mother at times — adding to the All Psychology Is Freudian aspect of the show). Not just Tony; nearly all the mobsters in the show have beautiful wives and girlfriends, despite many of them being ugly, mean, or both. It's implied that the women they're with are attracted to the power they represent. Tony's sister Janice is a rare female example, as she gets a surprising number of guys chasing after her despite being a heavy-set woman with an overbearing personality. |

In Havemercy, we have the almost outright sociopathic Rook, who not only treats women with a brutal kind of scorn but comes very close to killing his new professor and long-lost brother Thom out of sheer rage; the ladies, including the Esar's niece, are not in the least bit bothered by this. Though admittedly, Rook is described as being almost painfully handsome and with that whole rugged airman thing going on... | |

Deadpool: Deadpool is gruesomely disfigured (which is why he rarely removes his mask), insane, and immature. Yet all of his love interests are extremely hot women. He claims to have been married at least ten times previously in Deadpool #27 The Wedding of Deadpool, although not all of these stories may be accurate since he is an Unreliable Narrator. The past wives listed include Ms. Marvel turned out she was being controlled by an alien at the time, a sock puppet of Copycat he hallucinated was really her after he thought she died destroyed, although the real Copycat was still alive, a stripper calling herself Genosha killed during the wedding as a consequence of Deadpool messing with continuity, a woman whose name he forgot that he assassinated by pretending to be her groom she actually hired him to make her suicide look like a murder, a woman named Penny she didn't exist, she was part of a trap set by a villain, a woman named Anna he had actually killed the real Anna and married Copycat pretending to be her and it turned out the people who married them were replaced with actors so it didn't count, a Dumb Blonde named Lurleen divorced when it turned out she was actually Mystique, Outlaw her super strength made sex extremely painful, so probably divorced, Domino only pretending to be a couple for a mission but Deadpool took it like it was real, and she "divorced" him by shooting through him to get the bad guy, AIM assassin Betty Swanson didn't count, she was unconscious and the guy doing the wedding was a savage land native shaman that he coerced, and a large alien woman named Orksa although it didn't show it in this comic, he later divorced her so she could be with somebody who loved her more than he did, and of course, the main story of the issue is him getting married to Shiklah the Succubus but they have since separated, with Shiklah marrying Dracula like originally intended after their marriage falls apart due to Wade's negligence. Deadpool mentions in issue 31 of volume 4, that he thinks they're still technically married, but isn't sure how it works with her being a Succubus There are also all the women he had sex with but didn't marry, one of whom had his daughter. However, may be deconstructed since Deadpool sometimes never seems to remove his mask when he with some of his ladies. When having sex with Carmelita, he keeps his suit on. He has to leave to fight, and Carmelita wishes him luck and kisses him in case something bad happens to her. She even goes to the fight scene, wondering if Deadpool is ok. However, she'd never seen his face, and when she does, she chokes back bile and runs away in disgust. Granted, his face is only a mess due to injuries. When he gets his face fixed, he is quite handsome looking. |

Det. Nick Vera on Cold Case has a succession of women despite being fat, slovenly, and so very, very uncultured, save for that one time he took a co-worker to see Wicked. Hell, outside of his wife, his longest relationship was with Kima Greggs from The Wire! | |
