Catgirls... Why are they so popular? And what's so sexy about them? (And what about catgirl schoolgirls and maids?)

Posted by Kenzu - December 8th, 2009


Rate the catgirl from 1-10
(5 = average, 10 = awesome)

Why do so many people like Catgirls (anime and real)? They seems to become more popular than Maids and nurses. Why do the ears and tail make such a difference in sex appeal?

Examples:

Very often they take 2 and make them into 1. Quite often you can see not simply a catgirl, or a schoolgirl, but you see a catgirl wearing a schoolgirl uniform or maids clothes.

Like for example this one:

hi dude, long time no spoken
congrats to your marriage and stuff...

about that cat girl issue, I personally think that anime/manga/hentai characters look best when they're 2D and not 3D, so cosplay would drop out for me

why do people like them and why do they wear maid/schoolgirl costumes?

I guess it's the "cute" aspect which is the most significant reason and people like to combine several different fetishes into one so they get more out of it, also an artist has to draw some clothes (well technically he hasn't to) on a character and since catgirls are ussually depicted as young girls they chose those clothes

about the "why" do people love cat girls I can't say much

It's a fetish thing I guess so it can't be explained properly in my opinion as it is the typical for a fetish... you just like it and that's all which is to it

Hi Jack,
and thanks!

I usually prefer 2D, but I have to admit, 3D is sometimes much better than 2D (it's more of an exception than a rule though).

I think one positive aspect about drawing catgirls, to normal girls that it takes only a few lines to make them into catgirls. A big estethic difference compared to the little effort of drawing the ears and tail (or the kitty paws).

Come one, what's cuter than a real life misa misa?
The second one is the cutest

less awesome... >_>

Personally, I didn't like any of you examples because I'm not a fan of asian girls and the one above is WAY too young, it makes me think of child porn **eeeewwww**

Doesn't always have to be asian girls...

Everyone always thinks my wife is 15, just because she looks so young.
Asian girls tend to look much younger than they are.
I'm fine with that.

Just cute I'll guess.

cute is good

nice example of a catgirl maid!

Maybe it's because they actually are one of the few fetishes that, as you said, leave the opportunity to combine with another style (and that actually is visible)? Otherwise...catgirls...naaah. 3

The opportunities to combine are big indeed!

I can't say I find the idea of catgirls particularly attractive, but I thought I'd take a moment to say Polly Esther is undoubtedly the coolest catgirl of all time.

As evidenced here, she beats people up and doesn't afraid of anything.

This is the first time I see such a thing.

hrrrr meow! :D

Cat's are depicted as feminine and cute animals. So using them on girls would make them seem more feminine and cute.

I don't really know. Just a guess there. I'm not that big of a catgirl fan but I do think they are pretty hot. Although schoolgirls are very hot. It's that innocence feeling and short skirts.

Although I have to agree with Jackisback, anime is much better than real IMO. I liked that last anime pic the best out of all of those. I would probably give catgirls a 7 or 8.

Schoolgirls are often portrayed innocent, but catgirls not often.
But both of them are definitely cute.

over 9000000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9 million what? catgirls?

I would guess it has something to do with how attractive they look in the outfit, course the pics u have look awsome and may give some mixed reactions sometimes.

In what way do they give mixed reactions?

why?

One fine day with a moan and a purr
a baby was born and it caused a little stir
no blue buzzard
no three-eyed squirrel
just a feline hominine little catgirl

catgirl
catgirl
alone in the world was a little catgirl

out on the road or back in town
all the other critters putting catgirl down
gotta rise above it
gotta try to get along
gotta walk together
gotta sing this song

catgirl
catgirl
alone in the world was a little catgirl

sorry, but this isn't a catgirl, nor a human.

I think it's just so we care stare at their tits through the skimpy fur costume they put on.

There is a strong correlation between skimpiness of costume and sexiness. But too little isn't good either.

I always thought that "cat" was code for "easy". It would explain a lot.

I would say "cat" is a code for "she is yours".

i think it's because the girls (some cases) are really hot looking in the outfit, but also the outfit is nerdy and can be related to more by the fans of anime.

i mean its a bit different but why do playboy bunnies where bunny ears?

ps. lawl at hotdiggitycat's lyrics

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that bunnies mate a lot a produce loads of offspring.

Bunny girls are probably also considered a fetish, but they are definitely not so popular like catgirls. At least not in anime or cosplays.

I think that it has to do with how people see fuzzy animals. To tell you the truth, when we see a human in an animal costume, we think of the cutest one of that animal we have seen. This adds to the attraction to a attractive girl. It also may be that they show more skin in cat suits.
This does go into a whole route of why girls in certain costumes seen more attractive than in others, but I want to keep this brief.
