Luke very well may have felt tempted to join the dark side so he could be reunited with his father however, he could also be tempted by the lust of power that Vader promises him. Another reason why some women might feel a strange attraction to Darth Vader is because they can feel Luke being tempted as well. Watching Darth Vader tempt his son to join evil can be a turn-on for some women who find this to be an attractive quality. There’s a lot of temptation happening in this scene-it’s almost like the biblical story of Eve tempting Adam to eat the forbidden fruit. Could it be that the iconic scene of Darth Vader convincing Luke to join the dark side wasn’t just convincing Luke, but also the audience? One of Vader’s iconic quotes is “you don’t know the power of the dark side.” He says this to Luke who wanted his father to be on the good side. But that’s not what makes him attractive. Darth Vader is a fan-favorite villain because he’s known to be merciless and powerful-so why would women be attracted to him? For me, his ‘’attractiveness” is more seen in The Return of the Jedi(1983) where the audience doesn’t just see Vader as the evil Jedi who killed Luke’s mentor, but also Luke’s father. Let's explore what male villains have in common and if the stereotype that women are attracted to villains has some truth to it.ĭarth Vader is the first on my list because while he might not look sexy on the outside, his attempts to lure Luke to the dark side makes us wants to root for him. The question is: why are we? Is it the danger they impose that’s attractive or the dark vibes they give us? Here, I present three villains that to some extent have a sexy appeal to them. Ever heard of the bad boy type? The type of man who's sexy yet broody, or the type of man who’s dangerous but has a sensitive side? It’s a well-known stereotype that women are attracted to villains.
