8	-->-- '''Music/{{Kraftwerk}}''', "Sex Object"

10	Kind of the kinky older sibling to the LoveInterest. A {{lust}} object is a character who is [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin actively lusted over by another]].
11
12	While a character thinks about [[HoldingHands holding their]] LoveInterest's [[IntertwinedFingers hand]], and shows a LuminescentBlush in their presence, he or she will regard a lust object with [[EroticDream dreams of improbably risqué situations]], and more often than not, TheNosebleed.
13
14	It's possible for a LoveInterest to ''also'' be a lust object. However, this is [[CantActPervertedTowardALoveInterest usually not the case]], as a lust object is rarely regarded as anything other than that -- an object to lust over.
15
16	'''Note''': ''A character who simply thinks "sexy" thoughts about their LoveInterest is not regarding them as a Lust Object.''
17
18	For a character to be a lust object, they must be thought of as "objects" to fulfill the [[{{Fetish}} sexual]] or [[FanService proto-sexual desires]] of the luster, outside of (or in addition to) any romantic feelings. A good indicator is whether or not the Object speaks during the [[EroticDream waking wet-dream]]. If they don't, or if they only use "stock" sex-scene phrases, they're probably a lust object. If they hold a conversation, or even just speak in coherent sentences, they are probably closer to a LoveInterest.
19
20	They are often the object of a StalkerWithACrush. A guy who is MrFanservice or a girl who is MsFanservice is almost always this, on both sides of the Fourth Wall.
21
22	Compare HeadTurningBeauty for when the character is a lust object to ''everyone'', usually PlayedForLaughs. EatingTheEyeCandy is one way for a character to dwell on their lust object, while MaleGaze[=/=]FemaleGaze is a way for the author/artist to emphasize that the Object is being fetishized.

31	* In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hODwTzUcmfA#t=3m24s this]] Diet Rite commercial [[AthreesomeIsHot both]] the [[WalkingShirtlessScene shirtless]] football player and the player who's [[TakeOurWordForIt naked with a towel wrapped around his neck]] are this to the female reporter going into the locker room to conduct interviews.

34	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
35	* ''Manga/SevenSeeds'' has Botan be one to Semimaru. He finds her physically very attractive and even asks her to sleep with him, just once. With Botan also being TheTease, she doesn't seem to try to stump his desire.
36	* In ''Manga/AiKora'', all of the girls are this in Hachibei's eyes. Although the obsession on his part can ''seem'' to border on love (and in at least one case it leads to romance, or at least a LoveEpiphany), it's really just him lusting over their various "parts".
37	* Moe from ''Manga/AsteroidInLove'' has a barely controlled lust over Ao: Moe has [[PervertedSniffing sniffed Ao or her belongings]], or declared wanting to do so, multiple times, not to mention her response to [[spoiler:Ao's [[WithAFootOnTheBus having to move away]]]] is to {{elope\|ment}} with her. However, all of these are PlayedForLaughs.
38	* Ryota Murakami from ''Manga/BrynhildrInTheDarkness'' is friends with several girls. At least two of them, Kazumi and Hatsuna, never miss an opportunity to say they want to go to bed with him.
39	* ''Manga/DontMeddleWithMyDaughter'':
40	** Athena's a superheroine, who retired because hardly anyone could keep their eyes, or their hands, off her body. 20 years later, she's a single mom who nearly everyone [[StacysMom wants to fuck]]; including her own ''17 year old daughter''!
41	** Point Blank declared himself Athena's [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou sworn enemy]] after she defeated him. But it didn't stop him from banging her both times he was given the opportunity (chapters 11 and 12).[[note]]Athena had been captured and made into a SexSlave, by [[BigBad Zenovia]].[[/note]]
42	** By ''"Amazing Eighth Wonder Vol.2"'', Clara and her best friend [[spoiler: Mei]] have the developed the hots for each other. They're shown having lunch at a cafe, while sharing almost the exact same fantasy about [[spoiler: Mei]] giving it up to Clara.
43	* ''Manga/GirlsBravo'': Though Kirie's 16, she's already stacked and has a killer bod. So much so, that one episode showed she can't even walk down the street without being mobbed by middle-aged men asking her out; much to her chagrin. Not to mention, [[CasanovaWannabe Fukuyama]], [[PsychoLesbian Kosame]], and Hijiri, all want to get into her pants--with Kosame being the most persistent and the one who [[BlackComedyRape comes closest to succeeding.]] She even manages to steal Kirie's FirstKiss.
44	* In ''Anime/GreatPretender'', Laurent flirts openly with [[TheTease all his teammates]], but noticeably favors the protagonist Makoto. Offhand comments from his other teammates, Abbie and Cynthia, suggest they think he's lusting after Makoto: Abbie implies that Makoto was [[HiredForTheirLooks Hired for His Looks]] and Cynthia outright calls him "Laurent's favorite", but Laurent [[AmbiguousSituation never openly explains himself]].
45	* ''Manga/HighschoolOfTheDead'': Shizuka, Saeko, and Saya all are prime examples:
46	** Shizuka's age (27) has done nothing to detract from her sex appeal. Takashi's deceased friend, Imamura, said she was hot specifically ''because'' she was an older woman. Both Takashi and Hirano have also been aroused by her, and Shimada paused long enough to compliment her on her body before [[spoiler: attempting to rape her]].
47	** The anime plays up Takashi's attraction to [[AloofDarkhairedGirl Saeko]] far more than the manga does. Such as when he first sees her in nothing but [[HadakaApron an apron and a thong]], in episode 6, and slips up twice while staring at her breasts. While the ''"Drifters of the Dead"'' OVA cranks the [[UnresolvedSexualTension UST]] up, by having him hallucinate about her throwing herself at him, then spending the night having sex with her. It narrowly avoids being {{hentai}} by [[FadesToBlack fading to black]], [[SexyDiscretionShot just as they get started.]]
48	** [[{{meganekko}} Saya]] proves NerdsAreSexy by having Hirano crushing on her ''and'' wanting to get into her hot pants. In the ''"Drifters of the Dead"'' OVA, he even winds up [[spoiler: humping a broomstick]], while hallucinating that he was [[spoiler:banging her]].
49	*** The bonus story at the end of chapter 23 revealed that Takashi's other friend, Morita,[[note]]also deceased[[/note]] also wanted to tap it. He spends an entire page talking about how hot Saya is and made special note of her breasts, which he said were like a bikini model's.
50	* ''Franchise/LupinIII'': Fujiko is anime's original FemmeFatale. While it's no secret how ''[[ChivalrousPervert Lupin]]'' [[AManIsAlwaysEager feels about her]], he isn't the only one--as her clients, [[VillainousCrush her enemies]], businessmen, and even [[HeroAntagonist Inspector Zenigata]], have all wanted to hit it.[[note]]For the record, Lupin and Zenigata have both bedded her at different points. Lupin and Fujiko are FriendsWithBenefits, while she had a one night stand with Zenigata during her own SpinOff [[Anime/LupinIIITheWomanCalledFujikoMine series]].[[/note]] [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer So have other women.]] In ''[[Anime/LupinIIITheColumbusFiles The Columbus Files]]'', Rozaria asked Lupin if they could "share" her. While she was joking at the time, [[HomoeroticSubtext her attachment to Fujiko]] implied she may have meant it.
51	* ''Manga/MakenKi'':
52	** Despite being semi-flatchested, Himegami is considered one of the hottest girls at the academy. Her fanclub repeatedly goes on about how much they love her body, including her [[UsefulNotes/{{pettanko}} "itty-bitty titties".]] Takeru paused during an important battle, just to look at her ass, when he noticed the back of her skirt was torn. And between omake chapters 61.5 and 66.5, Usui had two separate [[EroticDream wet dreams]] about her, which each ended with him [[spoiler: dry humping his mattress]] afterward.
53	*** She clearly inherited it from her mother, Yatsuno [[spoiler: aka, Yamato no Orochi]], because her father couldn't take his eyes off her body and made no attempt to hide [[AManIsAlwaysEager what he was thinking]].
54	** Aki is the {{school nurse}}, who's popular with the vast majority of the male students at Tenbi, because of her '''[[BuxomBeautyStandard K-Cup]]''' [[BuxomBeautyStandard breasts.]] They'll even fake sickness and injury just for the chance to ogle her.
55	** Both Takeru and Uruchi have the hots for Haruko. The latter [[{{fangirl}} openly fangasms]] over her, to the point that Uruchi is [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer canonically gay for her]].
56	* ''[[Anime/QueensBlade Queen's Blade]]'' presents [[HomoeroticSubtext a lesbian]] [[BrotherSisterIncest incest]] example, which has Elina lusting after [[BigSisterAttraction her two older sisters:]] Leina and Claudette:
57	** The series does everything short of outright stating that Elina wants to scissor Leina, who's well aware of her younger sister's lust for her. As they grew older, Leina began to see her advances as improper and was put-off by it; which was part of the reason she eventually ran away from home. Oddly enough, she still indulges Elina on occasion, such as the 9th episode of season 2, where Leina spent the night spooning with her, in the nude.
58	** To a lesser extent, Elina secretly desires her eldest sister as well, but hides these feelings due to her attraction to Leina. Though chapter 20 of ''"Hide & Seek"'' showed her [[PervertedDrooling drooling]] while [[ImagineSpot fantasizing about]] cuddling in bed with Claudette. Eight chapters later, [[spoiler: she learned that the feeling was mutual and that Leina [[ShipperOnDeck supported the idea of her and Claudette being together]]]].
59	* ''Literature/{{Shimoneta}}'': Anna's had it bad for Tanukichi ever since he accidentally kissed her, which set off her pent-up hormones like an [[LoveMakesYouCrazy "ON" switch]]. Since then, she hasn't been shy about [[DoYouWantToCopulate what she wants from him]], from mailing him [[spoiler:envelopes filled with her vaginal fluid, to trying to rape him near the end of episode 4]].
60	* ''Literature/SoICantPlayH'':
61	** For Ryosuke, Lisara fuels his fetishes because she epitomizes all four of his favorite kinks[[note]]he's turned on by girls' armpits, their legs, upskirt {{panty shot}}s, and girls [[SexySoakedShirt in wet clothing]][[/note]]. In the first episode, she knocks him down after catching him trying to peep on her in the furo. Instead of getting up, he takes the opportunity to stare up her shirt and compliments the shapeliness of her legs. But she [[PervertRevengeMode shuts him up]] when he also says he can see her [[UnusualEuphemism "red threads"]] (i.e. her pubic hair)!
62	** All the male students at Momozono High [[HeadTurningBeauty have the hots for Iria]], because she's a blonde babe with a bangin' hot bod. Which is also [[SexSells the reason]] the Merlot Insurance company features her in all of their ads - while wearing string bikinis.
63	* ''[[VideoGame/StarOceanTillTheEndOfTime Star Ocean: Till the End of Time]]'': In the manga adaptation, Nel must be [[HeadTurningBeauty the hottest woman]] on Elicoor II, since just about anyone she meets either hits on her, or [[AttemptedRape tries to rape her.]]
64	** Cliff repeatedly looks up her skirt and hits on her every chance he gets. At one point, he flat-out out told her that he wanted to sleep with her.
65	** She was nearly raped twice, while trying to rescue her two subordinates, Tynave and Farleen, from the Kirlsa Training Facility. She escaped the first one on her own, but got cornered again moments later and would've been gangraped, had Fayt and Cliff ''not been there.''
66	** Roger has the hots for her too and grabs her butt the moment she releases him from his cage. From then on, he addresses her as, "OneeSama" and does whatever she says without question.
67	* ''Literature/TheTestamentOfSisterNewDevil'': {{Inverted\|Trope}} example. The light novel explains that Chisato's hidden desire is to become her 17-year old nephew, Basara's SexSlave, She eventually gets her wish during the final volume after Basara spends ''[[YearInsideHourOutside an entire "year"]]'' repeatedly having sex with her to make her submit to him. When he finally succeeds, the novel says Chisato [[HappinessInSlavery derives sexual gratification from knowing she's]] [[PropertyOfLove his property]] and that she now exists solely for his pleasure.
68	* ''Manga/TokyoGhoul'': Mutsuki is a CoveredInScars trans male (pre op) who attracts the sexual interest of SerialKiller Torso to the point of masturbation and sexual assault. He feels he is EntitledToHaveYou in regards to Mutsuki and misgenders him as a female Lust Object.
69	* Rito from ''Manga/ToLoveRu'' is a male example. All the girls love him, but some of them have also a sexual desire. Especially Momo. She often sneaks into his room and enjoys it when he "plays" with her body while he is sleeping.
70	* In ''Words Worth'', [[FourStarBadass King Fabris]] became obsessed with [[LadyOfWar Sharon]] [[InLoveWithYourCarnage after seeing her in battle]] and plainly told his military advisor that he wanted to fuck her. In the following episode, he tried to make good on it, by engaging her the moment she arrived on the battlefield. At the end of their duel, he pinned her to the ground and [[AttemptedRape tried to rape her]] on the spot, but was foiled by her fiance's ([[TheProtagonist Prince Astral]]) timely arrival.
71	* For the first half of ''Manga/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess2016,'' Midna treats Link [[TheTease as a]] [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace plaything]], since she hates Light Worlders too much to afford him any respect, but blew any chance of hiding her InconvenientAttraction [[ChicAndAwe the moment he first returned to human form]].
72	[[/folder]]
73
74	[[folder:Comic Books]]
75	* Pretty much the whole point of ''ComicBook/{{Druuna}}''. She exists to be the subject of other characters' lust-filled fantasies and is an EthicalSlut.
76	* ''ComicBook/Gen13'' has the team's leader Caitlin Fairchild as one of these for her teammates Sarah and Grunge, while Sarah herself is seen as this by her teammate Bobby and the aforementioned Grunge.
77	* ''ComicBook/{{Nightwing}}'': Dick Grayson is subjected to some ridiculously lewd greetings in universe, has had people ''name his butt cheeks'' and, unfortunately, has been raped twice by women who didn't see anything wrong with taking what they wanted from him.
78	* ''ComicBook/SinCity'' has Nancy the stripper. She's the favored "performer" in Kadie's Bar, but her main luster is the SociopathicHero Marv. It's likely that he is in love with her, but isn't fully aware of it.
79	* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': ComicBook/MaryJaneWatson and ComicBook/{{Black Cat\|MarvelComics}} pretty much fall into this, due to [[MsFanservice them]] being among the [[WorldsMostBeautifulWoman most beautiful women]] in all of Marvel. In [[HeadTurningBeauty Mary Jane]]'s case, [[SoBeautifulItsACurse it's a lot darker]] due to her attracting stalkers. With [[ClassyCatBurglar Black Cat]], it's a bisexual case, with a wide range of male suitors and female lovers she's dated.
80	[[/folder]]
81
82	[[folder:Fan Works]]
83	* ''WesternAnimation/Ben10'': Almost everything shipping related to Ben Tennyson will involve him getting it on with [[IncestYayShipping his cousin]], Gwen. H-art and fan made videos portray them as being perpetually horny for each other, which Gwen usually [[DoYouWantToCopulate encourages]] ''[[AllWomenAreLustful and initiates]]''.
84	* ''Fanfic/EdenObsessmuch'': [[Franchise/HarryPotter Hermione Granger]] becomes the target of Lucius Malfoy's [[VillainousCrush lust]]. [[spoiler:He gives in and rapes her.]]
85	* ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'': Shippers and H-artists alike seem convinced that Max Caulfield must be the hottest girl in Arcadia Bay, because they've had ''[[LauncherOfAThousandShips the entire main cast]]'' bang her multiple times in numerous H-vids and Rule34 art. She's also a favorite for {{crossover ship}}ping, so even those such as [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUsII Ellie]], [[VideoGame/TombRaider2013 Lara Croft]], and various [[PerverseSexualLust self-insert OCs]] have had turns with her.
86	* ''Fanfic/MandiesNewTarget'': For all her talk about love, Princess Mandie's feelings for Danny Phantom are more lust than anything else. She cares nothing for his emotional wellbeing or how he rejects her, only that he's powerful and attractive, not to mention she wants to have at least 5 children with him. Despite finding her attractive, Danny makes it clear he has no desire to father a future dictator's children for her to corrupt.
87	* ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing'': In fanfiction, Hilde Schbeiker was often portrayed as being so kinky and desirable that [[LauncherOfAThousandShips all the Gundam pilots wanted to bang her]]; including Zechs. The lemon section of the ''[=DxH=] Addiction'' site was divided between stories about Hilde having sex with her boyfriend, Duo Maxwell, while the other half was reserved for stories about the other pilots either [[ReallyGetsAround seducing her]], or being seduced ''[[SexGoddess by her]]''.
88	* In ''WebVideo/ASlapOnTitan'', Mikasa is this for the boys (and a few girls) of her corps, partly for her powerful demeanor and partly because she's a half-Asian in a group full of [[RaceFetish race fetishists]].
89	* In ''WebVideo/SwordArtOnlineAbridged'', Suguha as her "Princess Leafa" persona is this to Salamander players in ''Alfheim Online'', as they [[TheRoleplayer roleplay]] an IHaveYouNowMyPretty scenario. Even after Kirito shows up and drives the Salamanders off, they promise they won't be deterred.
90	-->'''General [=PantySmasher=]:''' Know this: the Salamanders ''cannot be stopped.'' And we shall not rest until we [[PunctuatedForEmphasis have. Dat.]] ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Booty.]]''
91	* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12623464/24/These-Grey-Skies These Grey Skies]]'': Gogo has been [[{{Yandere}} absolutely obsessed]] with having [[WesternAnimation/BigHero6 Hiro]] as a sexual partner ever since she met him, even though she was genuinely in love with, and dating, Tadashi long before she met Hiro.
92	[[/folder]]

94	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
95	* ''Film/{{Ajnabee}}'': Despite being [[SeductionProofMarriage loyal to his wife]], Raj can't help but feel attracted to Sonia, to the point both she and Vicky call him out on how often he's EatingTheEyeCandy.
96	* Stifler's Mom from ''Film/AmericanPie'', since while the other boys tend to find relationships, she and Finch only ever seem to have sex once and then that's it.
97	* Citizen Elliot in ''Literature/ExitToEden'' is this for Mistress Lisa. She's drawn him because she has a thing for his butt which is we learn is her favorite male body part (which she fondles) just before his [[KinkySpanking spanking]]:
98	-->'''Lisa''': You know how some men like women's legs, some like big breasts, some like long hair? Know what I like? I like butts. Men's beautiful behinds. You know what I like to do to gorgeous butts? I like to squeeze them, pinch them and caress them.
99	* Linda from ''Film/FastTimesAtRidgemontHigh'' is this for Brad. In perhaps the most famous scene in the film, Brad masturbates while fantasizing about Linda [[SexySurfacingShot emerging from the pool]] and taking off her top ... until he is [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown interrupted by the very object of his lust]].
100	* A parody of Mystique in ''Film/EpicMovie'' is this for the main character Peter. He seems to only be interested in her for how hot she is. Near the beginning of the film, Peter imagines her dancing sexily and seductively for him, putting her arms behind her head, showing off her breasts and booty, swaying her hips, and even squeezing her boobs. He attempts to ask her out for the homecoming dance simply to have sex with her. He is rejected initially, but after it's revealed he's going to be the king of Gnarnia, she thinks he's so hot and drags him into a tent intending to have sex with him. She mainly talks seductively, asking what she should shapeshift into as she's a shapeshifter. He requests mainly superficial stuff such as [[BreastExpansion bigger boobs]] and a larger ass...also a monobrow and for her to have a fat flabby grandma body type, which turns him on. She then has his way with him. Even if his requests are...unconventional, it's clear he's not into her for her personality...
101	* ''Film/FreddyVsJason'': Lori Campbell is still in love with her old boyfriend Will and Linderman has a clear and innocent crush on her, but two other men have less than affectionate interests in her. Blake clearly has a sexual interest [[AbhorrentAdmirer and Lori doesn't reciprocate]]. [[DirtyOldMan Freddy Krueger]], meanwhile, attempts to satisfy himself with her in non-consensual ways, from forcefully kissing her with tongue to potentially raping her at the end before killing her.

103
104	[[folder:Literature]]
105	* In ''Literature/ABrothersPrice'', Jerin Whistler to lots of women. Justified in that he is a very beautiful man in a world where men are so rare that one who has all his own teeth and no deformations might be considered handsome. The non-related women who don't lust after him warn him to not go out unveiled in public, as other women might not be so decent.
106	* In ''Literature/CloudOfSparrows'', every section told from Zephaniah's point of view keeps mentioning how much he wants to shag Emily.
107	* In the ''Literature/DresdenFiles'' universe, the White Court of vampires have Raith House. All vampires of said house derive nourishment from sexual energy. Therefore they are often lust objects for anyone within close range, particularly when they are hungry. One of them, Thomas, is described as having looks which put any male model to shame, and Harry routinely notices both men and women turning to watch him walk past.
108	* ''Literature/TheFragilityOfBodies'': Verónica is this to many of the male characters, whenever they get a POV segment of a man thinking about her, they're also often lusting or fantasizing about her. This includes the doorman to her building and even a ''priest''.
109	* Marcia for Roy in ''Literature/{{The Howling\|1977}}''. He quickly develops an intense attraction to her, but he admits it's not the same as the emotional connection he felt with his wife. Marcia even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this; when Roy impulsively tells her he loves her, she bluntly says that while he has strong feelings for her, he doesn't ''love'' her, pointing out that he barely even knows her and their relationship is built entirely on sexual attraction (not that Marcia minds).
110	-->'''Roy:''' I do love you, Marcia.
111	-->'''Marcia:''' No. You admire me. You want me. You may even need me. But you do not love me. [...] Not yet. You do not love me yet. But you will, my Roy, you will.
112	* ''Literature/SkippyDies'': Carl has a lot of disturbing sexual fantasies about Lori. His "relationship" with her mostly consists of him pressuring her to sleep with him and exchanging drugs for handjobs.
113	* ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'':
114	** Famed as the WorldsMostBeautifulWoman, Daenerys Targaryen is specifically mentioned as being lusted after by her long-time adviser Jorah Mormont, [[TheChessmaster Illyrio Mopatis]], [[VillainousIncest her own brother Viserys]], and sellswords Mero, the Titan's Bastard, and Daario Naharis--not to mention two Ironborns who've never actually seen her. Daario appears to have gone over to her side mostly out of a desire to bed her. It should be noted that [[DeliberateValuesDissonance Daenerys is only 13 at the start of the series]], although a few years pass over the course of the books, and George RR Martin has noted he would go back and age the characters up to be more inline with their television counterparts, given the chance.
115	** Daario is a Lust Object for Daenerys too--though he progresses into a LoveInterest over time.
116	[[/folder]]
117
118	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
119	* Creator/PeterSerafinowicz's character on ''Series/BlackBooks'' was this for Fran. It's made clear that he's a self-important arsehole whom Fran can't stand, but it doesn't stop her spending half the episode literally masturbating to the sound of his voice.
120	* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer''
121	** Spike's infatuation with Buffy ''seems'' to initially present itself as this, since mostly manifests as sexual fantasies at first. However, by "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS5E18Intervention Intervention]]", it's clear his feelings are indeed deeper than simple lust, as he ''endures hours of interrogative torture from a hellgod'' just because he knew giving up the information said hellgod was looking for would hurt Buffy profoundly.
122	** Likewise, Buffy insists she only views Spike as this during their season 6 DestructiveRomance, but admits by the end of the season she at some point ''did'' develop some feelings for him--even if those feelings weren't the unconditional love Spike wanted from her.
123	* Bob Sorenson became this for Kris in the "Toni's Boys" episode of ''Series/CharliesAngels'' when he [[ShirtlessScene took his shirt off]].
124	* In series 5 of ''Series/DoctorWho'', the Doctor is this for Amy Pond--she even says as much herself when he tries to rebuff her advances by pointing out that their age difference makes them incompatible. This is in sharp contrast to the emotion-based crushes Rose and Martha had on him. She gets over it halfway through the season, after her actual ''love'' for her fiance Rory is tested.
125	** Lady Cassandra ends up idealizing Rose like this in "New Earth" despite recognizing Rose as a pure-blooded human like her, Cassandra mostly possesses Rose later on as part of her revenge plot. But after studying her new figure Cassandra praises Rose's looks and becomes drunk on her new sex appeal, spending the rest of the episode being distracted by her own figure.
126	* The titular ''Series/{{Galavant}}'' may qualify as this, as shots and/or scenes of him shirtless tend to display an awareness that viewers definitely really enjoy seeing him half-naked. Exaggerated during [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AB13n49voyg this number]] from the season two premiere.
127	* Penny in ''Series/TheBigBangTheory'' is this for Leonard, who spends the entire first season making PuppyDogEyes at her because he was too shy to get beyond a casual conversation. She eventually grew out of that role not just because they have a RelationshipUpgrade but that the series implemented a mild version of WantingIsBetterThanHaving, Leonard had to get past the raw physical attraction and fall in love with her and all her quirks.
128	* ''Series/BrooklynNineNine'': Sgt. Terry Jeffords for Gina Linetti, who constantly flirts with him and feels him up despite him being married with two (later three) children.
129	* ''Series/SchittsCreek'':
130	** Ted returns from his solo honeymoon having worked out the whole time and Alexis checks him out only to be ''very'' surprised it's him. Ted also provides FanService to viewers of his office's bunny cam when he changes in front of it after his runs, and he is admired by multiple guests at Patrick's housewarming, including David, Patrick and Stevie.
131	** Jake, the bisexual furniture maker who dates both David and Stevie and suggests they become a throuple. Neither David nor Stevie have any real romantic feelings for the hunky Jake but they compete with each other for his attention. David later asks Stevie about her relationship with him:
132	-->'''David''': So you're in love then. You're falling in love with Jake.\
133	'''Stevie''': It's impossible to be in love with Jake. Only Jake is in love with Jake. He's just...really good at celebrating my body.
134	* A season three episode of ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' hints that [[SmugSnake Bela]] is this for Sam -- she's an [[ItsAllAboutMe incredibly selfish]] [[ConMan Con Woman]] and both brothers find her insufferable, but she's drop-dead gorgeous and Sam's subconscious serves up a nice sex dream.
135	* ''Series/SexLife'': Brad becomes this for Billie, whose interest in him is purely sexual at first, when they meet again.
136	* ''Series/PartOfMe'': SpicyLatina Adriana is a HeadTurningBeauty who is [[DudeMagnet constantly fawned over by men]], which gets her in trouble when she becomes the obsession of local [[TheCartel cartel]] boss Carlos. And when Mónica ends up [[GrandTheftMe inhabiting Adriana's body]], Gerardo ''also'' becomes obsessed with her due to how attracted he is to her, though poor Mónica thinks it's because deep down he "knows" it's her.

139	[[folder:Music]]
140	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVRy49i6zZ8 "Soo Bawlz"]] by Music/{{Devo}} has a very odd and very demented way of describing this situation. In other words, ''very'' Devo.
141	-->Ain't a man in town who wouldn’t have her for his daughter \
142	They'd all trade their brains for one taste of her toilet water \
143	The way she teases them, it's such a shame \

146	* Music/{{Kraftwerk}}'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GkgldB8ITfI "Sex Object,"]] a song about the narrator aware they're a Lust Object and not too comfortable with this role, despite being a bit tempted by the admirer.
147	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsneH0mOq-0 "I Know What Boys Like"]] by Music/TheWaitresses deconstructs this trope. The object in question is fully aware of this, turns it around, and just leaves the boys hanging to make fools of them for her own petty amusement. Patty Donahue's unbothered tough-girl vocal really sells it.

158	* Slyk Wagner Brown was the lust object of the Christopher Street Connection Jersey All Pro Wrestling, to the point Mace and Buff E fought each other to get the first "crack" at him. Buff E insisted he "[[AbhorrentAdmirer loved]]" Slyk though. Jailbait on the other hand, was more interested in Brown's TagTeam partner, April Hunter.

162	* EVA serves as this for Naked Snake in ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater''. However, [[CharacterDevelopment he grows to genuinely love her over the course of the story]].
163	* ''VideoGame/SkiesOfArcadia'': Vigoro first meets [[PirateGirl Aika]], while she and her friends are being held prisoner at the Grand Fortress; resulting in [[AbhorrentAdmirer 'lust at first sight']]. After making note of her legs and hips, he [[PrisonRape attempts to rape her in her cell]], but gets foiled by Vyse and Gilder. Later, he runs into her again while they're in Yafutoma, where he invites her back to his ship [[DoubleEntendre so they can "rock the boat".]] You even have to fight him [[VillainousCrush over her]] ''[[RecurringBoss three separate times]]'', before he finally relents and agrees to leave her alone.
164	* ''VideoGame/HauntingGround'' subverts the trope. While [[spoiler: [[StalkerWithATestTube Riccardo]]]] ''does'' desire [[MsFanservice Fiona]] and desperately wants to get between her legs, it's actually her Azoth that he's after. If he succeeds in impregnating her, she eventually gives birth to [[spoiler: his reincarnation]].
165	* ''VideoGame/ShinMegamiTenseiStrangeJourney'' has Asura telling Zelenin that the males aboard the ''Red Sprite'' see her not as a person, but as something to be desired and lusted over. She doesn't take the idea well, and it begins her slow descent into [[spoiler:becoming the game's Law Hero]].

168	[[folder:Visual Novel]]
169	* This happens to Miles Edgeworth at least three times in ''VisualNovel/AceAttorneyInvestigations''. He has no idea why.
170	* ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight''
171	** This is at least a partial cause of Gilgamesh's obsession with Saber in the Fate route. He sees her as a treasure to add to his collection, and makes his desire to have his way with her very clear.
172	** Shinji Matou, in the meantime, has it bad for Rin Tohsaka, and does not take kindly to the fact that Rin isn't interested in him at all, to the point of ''trying to rape her'' at one point during the Unlimited Blade Works route.
173	* As {{Valkyries}}, Brooks and Wildfire see all men this way in ''VisualNovel/War13thDay''. This causes problems when Wildfire starts getting serious about a boy...

175
176	[[folder:Webcomics]]
177	* Most characters in ''Webcomic/MenageA3'', a sex comedy with a healthy dose of {{Fanservice}}, take this role for someone else at some point, but it's pretty much [=DiDi=]'s full-time plot function. (Her own lust objects at different times are Matt and, in a ''slightly'' subtler form, Gary.) Eventually, Zii has to explain the trope to her:
178	-->'''Zii:''' It's just a mild... craving. Or hunger. ''Animal'' hunger. Where I just wanna tear all your clothes off and lick every inch of your skin. Y'know, nothing to worry about.
179	* ''WebComic/MagickChicks'' {{lampshade\|Hanging}}s it twice regarding [[ThePornomancer Faith]] [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer Abbot's]] sex appeal.
180	** It was made apparent [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/presence_carriage_and_poise from the start]] that her secretary, Sandi, was both deeply in love with her and wanted to sleep with her. But it became explicit when one of Jacqui's glamour spells showed Sandi her heart's desire, which was the sight of Faith naked and offering to "reward" her for all her hard work. Which lead her to [[spoiler: [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/your_heart_desire dry hump]]]] the tree the illusion had been cast on.
181	** After much speculation, TheReveal, near the end of chapter 15 finally uncovered why the girls at [[AllGirlSchool Artemis Academy]] are all so eager for the chance to be with her. [[spoiler: Subconsciously, [[IJustWantToBeLoved Faith wanted to be loved.]] So [[PsychicPowers her powers]] synced with the school's, which enhanced her desirability. Thus, reshaping the school in her image]]. Faith hadn't been aware of it, at the time, and [[ThisCannotBe was horrified when faced with the truth]].
182	-->[[spoiler:'''Cerise''']]: '''(telepathically)''' "Haven't you wondered why all the girls love Faith? [[http://www.magickchicks.com/strips-mc/even_her_enemies Why even her enemies lust after her?"]]
183	* Dot in ''Webcomic/GothOz'' is one to the Scarecrow of all people. She hands him an apple, and he, grabbing her hand, licks it and says:
184	-->'''Scarecrow:''' Hm, very sweet, Dorothy. An' I bet the apple ain't half bad either.
185	* There is almost no actual romance whatsoever in ''Webcomic/{{Sonichu}}'' among unmarried characters. Instead, any character who's dating or otherwise in a romantic-looking relationship, whether they be male or female, is actually only trying to have sex, and they don't hide it either, putting every non-villainous major character under this trope.
186	* In ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', the [=MV5=] storyline is about [[http://egscomics.com/egsnp/2015-09-23 designing]] a male form that is this just as the Female Variant #5 form is. During it, it is made clear that Sarah still [[http://egscomics.com/egsnp/2015-12-14 lusts]] after Elliot even though she's no longer interested in being Elliot's girlfriend anymore. [[http://egscomics.com/egsnp/2016-01-27 Some]] of Grace's male forms also inspire lust in Sarah even when [[http://egscomics.com/egsnp/2016-02-29 one]] of them is a taller, more buff, male version of ''herself''.

189	[[folder:Web Original]]
190	* WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic has become this to Spoony. Of course Spoony has the hots for everyone, but Critic is the one whose spooning was set up and mentioned again afterwards, and Spoony ''really'' enjoys humiliating him.
191	* In WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick's review of ''Film/WhatWomenWant,'' she refers to one character as the "Disposable Sex Interest," since Mel Gibson's character has an actual LoveInterest and clearly just wants this girl for sex.
192	* Anyone who signs up as a member of the WebOriginal/ProtectorsOfThePlotContinuum has to have their Lust Objects officially recorded in their bio for the record. Acting upon their sexual desires for them while on a mission results in punishment.

195	[[folder:Western Animation]]
196	* Lois Griffin from ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' is this for Quagmire, Brian, [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer and Meg's friend Ruth]].
197	* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'': [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugAdrienAgreste Adrien Agreste]] is a male example of this trope. As a hero, the show often treats him as an irresponsible, pushy ButtMonkey thus undermining his value. As a civilian, his status as a famous model pretty much ensures he's regarded as this by several people, with four girls and a fanboy fighting over his affections and lusting after him, teenage hormones and all. While the show itself doesn't sexualize him, his face is plastered all over Paris. Adrien has also been subjected to sexual harassment and viewed as a prize to be won by one of the girls after him. Furthermore, his endgame LoveInterest is a StalkerWithACrush and in possession of a large collection of pictures of him which she sometimes drools at.
198	* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
199	** [[Characters/TheSimpsonsMargeSimpson Marge Simpson]] has gained attention from a majority of male characters like Moe, Mr. Burns and a number of celebrities.
200	** Tabitha Vixx from the episode "Marge and Homer Turn a Couple Play". Lampshaded several times in the episode.
201	--->'''Homer''': Buck, you've got a beautiful woman with a hot body that any man would fantasize about even while making love to his own Marge.
202	* FormerChildStar-slash-TeenIdol Sarah Lynn in ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'' is told by at least one fan ''every day'' that she was the first person they masturbated to.
203	-->'''Bojack:''' That is gross.\
204	'''Sarah Lynn:''' Oh-ho, I know!
