Cast Full of Pretty Boys/Playing With

Basic Trope: Overporportional representation of young and beautiful male characters in the main cast.


 * Played Straight: A group of teenagers has 15 pretty boys and 3 girls.
 * Exaggerated: Female characters do exist, but only in the background or not at all. The focus lies upon the world of uber-beautiful males, men that look like women, and men dressed as women.
 * Inverted: Attractive men are an endangered species.
 * Subverted: A show has a large number of male characters, but the real focus lies on the female character and ignores the male characters most of the time.
 * Double Subverted: However, the female character happens to be the heroine of a Reverse Harem.
 * Justified:
 * In some shows, women are completely useless and weak, so they are forced to stay in the sidelines.
 * Or said women happen to be Faux Action Girls.
 * Deconstructed: A world with too few women cause the men to fight against one another, just to claim and mate with them, not because they're beautiful, but they need to repopulate.
 * Reconstructed: The men realize that women are too much trouble than they're worth and decide either to turn a few men into Futanari, or make gynoids instead.
 * Alternatively, they find out that the women have hidden themselves away from the violent males.
 * Zig Zagged: ???
 * Averted: The balance of boys and girls are even.
 * Enforced: Apparently, the creators of a show found a large fanbase in girls wanting male Fan Service, so they decide to reduce a number of girls.
 * Lampshaded:
 * "Why are there so many boys in the gym?"
 * "Well, this party's turned into a total sausagefest." "Dude, there's like three girls in the whole city. What did you expect?"
 * Invoked: A group of boys go out camping without taking their girlfriends.
 * Defied: A leader of a club decides to add some girls into his club.
 * Discussed: "Where are the rest of the girls at? Don't tell me she's the only one here?!"
 * Conversed: ???
