i hate this trope a lot, all the gals have eyelashes when none of the guys do
like i didn't realize how much i appreciated the lack of eyelashes on a female character until i saw some newer cartoon where virtually no one had eyelashes

"large eyelashes and more feminine"

this is only a trope, being untrue in the real world, unless makeup (mascara) is used

yeah but in cartoons ALL of them do or an unrealistic amount of them do, even if realistically it would not be usual for them to wear mascara, e.g., say a gal from a culture that did not or does not use that makeup, a baby, etc.

they use it as a symbol
so that you can identify that the character is a female
without having to flash children with the the front-hind of a cartoon character

the gems in steven universe are female-identified characters and they don't have eyelashes nor big chests just look at pearl or garnet

I wouldn't use a show as bad as Steven Universe as an exemplar for your ideals of animation

"To make it more obvious."

i'm just asking why it's always, always women who have these additional characteristics to identify them as female, but men never do have any additional ones, as if everyone assumes all characters to be male as default

because people view women as beautiful and men as average
its not an attack on women
its women-worship

For whatever reason this reminded me of what art was. I invisioned a paintbrush as you said this.

Thank you. My dream has now a sort of supplement.

Women have additional ones because women have different characteristics then men.

it makes sense on some female characters but not on literally all of them as if men are never attractive/vain and women always are

"because people view women as beautiful and men as average
its not an attack on women
its women-worship"

and this is what we radical feminists intend to stop
men can be beautiful as well as women
anyone saying only women are beautiful or are "more beautiful than men" is trash

"Women have additional ones because women have different characteristics then men."

um
from a biological standpoint, actually, the opposite is true, if you think about it, aside from mammaries, people with higher levels of t###osterone have more "additional" anatomically than others

its a general social norm
women and men have positive views and negative views
women are always seen as more trustworthy, beautiful, and given more attention
men are always seen as stronger, and more manly
