there is an ukrainian soldier who shared footage from his raids and became sort of internet nanocelebrity on reddit because of it. at one point somebody made anime girl character based on him, and asked about opinion he said something to the effect of "i feel secure enough in my masculinity to jack off to this"

Truly the hero we need
"Would you fuck me? Yeah, I'd fuck me."
lolololololol
No but for real this is the kind of actual self-confidence and security in one's own identity that is actually healthy masculinity.
Really depends on the quality of the art and how many tentacles they drew inside me. At a certain point too many tentacles is just gauche.
First off, wonder why anyfur would want to make hentai out of my ugly ass.
Second, probably give them my email and ask if it's okay if I get a copy ( even if I have to pay a small fee ). If it's digital, that's an easy copy.
I'd love to see how they either turn me into some average to godlike looking beaver or if I'm the ugly bastard. Wouldn't complain either way.
Have nothing to do with them. This gives me the ick. If they were distributing I would obviously go through whatever channels possible to have that cease.
I seriously think this is the normie response. As you can see by this thread, we weird here on lemmy.
This is definitely the normie response to the actual situation. But everyone imagines someone drawing them and imagines being flattered. And they imagine the artist being hot and charming.
I imagined some gay greasy nerd and I would still feel flattered, lol. But women are wanted kinda by default so I understand if they wouldn't appreciate it the same way and just find it gross or whatnot.
It has happened to me and I was flattered. As long as it remains fantasy only, I'm fine with it! I'm ace though so I dont really care about the sexualization part.
Sweet, a new profile pic for me!
...commence the jigglin?
Be very flattered somebody thought I was worth drawing.
Someone drew me once in my life, and I still have the little index card they drew me on
[Random glance at the Krita recent files] [Ponderous inhale] It sure would be weird if someone hypothetically would be doing that, but I'm not sure I would be able to do anything about that.
Be flattered for a moment. Then decide to stay away from them, since they're creepy, apparently.
I'd ask for copies so I can wank to it.
Nothing. Stop obsessing over people obsessing over you.
Would you do me?
I'd do me
Someone dressed as me for a Halloween costume one year. I think I'd be flattered, to be honest!
Demand royalties?
Depends on the features exaggerated
Nostril kink
Yes I would do them.
how would one exaggerate a tiny weenus ?

Did you know unlike the peenus, the weenus does not feel anything?
Try tugging and pinching your weenus, feel for yourself!
Obviously take it as a compliment.
Depends are they putting out there for the public to see it then I might be annoyed with it if it’s for their own personal usage then I don’t care
Probably be flattered and a little turned on. Assuming it's flattering hentai. If I'm drawn exaggerated in an insulting way, I'd be hurt.
If that was all there is to it, I wouldn't mind much personally. I dont think it's right to push someone's boundaries like that, but this specific example of it doesn't bother me all that much (as long as I am the subject, at least).
If that was only one step in the process though, I may be a bit annoyed or concerned, depending on what else is going on.
I'd feel violated. Even if the drawings aren't technically me, but are styled after me, it shows a glimpse of their creepy obsessive nature with "myself" in the middle without my consent. The implications scream louder than the act itself.
Sigh... unzips
Which features?
Tentacles
Depends on the features.
Probably click like and subscribe.
Disturbed and disgusted.

Ask to see it.
Laugh my ass off and ask for a copy most likely
depends on whether i find them attractive
If it was like, inflation or some other very odd, nonconsenual kind of kink, somebody pretending I'm their sibling or something... yeah that would not be ok.
Barring that kind of nonsense?
Flattering!
I've never been the basis of an erotic artwork, but I have had guys and gals give me some fairly explicit uh, physical attribute based comments... less explicit, but more common... particularly gals, would be just actually jealous of my eyelashes and hair, sometimes literally pouting about how unfair it is that they don't have them.
Its a compliment.
That's gonna be a big nose
I'd ask for a cut of all sales that are using my likeness or sue them for using it without my permission.
Otherwise, there's no way it would be news to me since I'm the one comissioning the art.
Are we vibing? Im gonna need some background
