The Male Gaze is a phenomenon in pop culture that even extends to the sorts of camera angles applied. It's literally just putting the camera behind how a man's eyes would move while often presenting things that'd be attractive, which can have an effect in awakening female bisexuality via conditioning. 

Clearly the answer is sexifying the men, and then giving them long camera shots that focus on the goods. 

 Yes I've heard about it and it still makes no sense. Plenty of games do that to male characters, and the game camera is too important for functionality to be that low all of the time.

Which games sexify the men, rather than having them be a power fantasy for men?

Metal Gear Rising and Arkham Knight both have low camera shots of men. The "Batman's cape hides his rear" thing never made sense because you still get clear shots of it and he has outfits with no cape, along with characters like Nightwing who has no cape. There are even games that have men in skimpy outfits but that's more niche for people's interests so that's why it's rare. I mean most video games are power fantasies including ones with women as the protagonist. Sorry but if you go more niche than you will find less content, and there's a surprising amount of male skimpification/depowering content out there for how niche it is.

What exactly is sexifying men, aren't they typically good looking in video games ?

I remember this one time in the 90's I had a girl over and we were looking at the intro for Soul Blade on the PS1. The intro shows a mashup of the characters living out their lives, then it got to a clip where it showed Rock, a shredded barbarian kinda crouching to enter a tent, and the girl was like whoa ! She literally fell in love in less than 1 second. 

Everyone has their tastes but most video game men are generally ripped with the jawline with characteristics that scream dominant in the bedroom. Except, Mario.

Apply the same treatment to women and they look quote unquote "ugly", apply the same treatment to men and it's not as far as they've pushed women. 

Imagine swapping the models around with eachothers' MOCAP. Check how genders climb ladders and shit in many games.

 Men and women aren't the same but I know what you want. You want the men to behave like women. To walk with a female's stride. To bend over like when opening a chest or whatever actions present a woman the opportunity to show off her curves. 

Women are naturally more beautiful to look at. They have more to cover up than a man in terms of censorship. Even the angels couldn't resist the Daughters of men. 

There's this controversy with this teacher. She's really hot, thin torso, tits, booming hips, and a really nice ass. She looks like a porn star. I think she might have done some type of porn before. Well she's an elementary school teacher now. The Father's of her students are shocked by her, while the Mother's don't like her.

She's just too hot and without trying it seems. I don't think men can even begin to be that hot or present such an issue. Removing her from working as a teacher would be discrimination. 

Is it really that hard to imagine a sexy man?

Think of the potential markets it'd open. 

That and equal opportunities for character realism (or sexiness).

 Under the proposition to "either unsexify the women or sexify the men" is an XOR statement.  At least with sexifying the men, we keep the sexified women.

(Wouldn't it be funny to continue quoting cx3 for the rest of this thread?)

Exactly, I don't see why this takes so much to explain to some people. If you want your game to be full of whores, then let the men be whores too. 

I see nothing wrong with sexy goon features in games, they're a classic staple, but why not make the men sexy? It's not like men can't be sexy, they just need skimpier clothes and more provocative postures. 

Baldur's Gate 3 gets it; They even have more jiggle physics on the male models than the female ones. Some are so afraid of homosexual thoughts that they mod out how plump and nice Astarion's ass is.
