This trope is part of a larger [[Double Standard]] when it comes to science fiction: male aliens can be any shape or form, and very often are to show exactly how "alien" our extraterrestrial friends are, whereas female aliens (barring [[Rule of Funny|comedic exceptions]]) have to be humanoid enough to be attractive to [[Male Gaze|male audiences]]. Thus you'll see alien women with plenty of [[Non-Mammal Mammaries]]. To further accentuate the [[Fan Service]], they also tend to wear [[Stripperiffic]] clothing, often justified by saying that in their native culture it's as ordinary as shirts and pants (or dresses) are for us.
Despite the name, blue seems to be a more prominent color nowadays (presumably due to [[Little Green Men]] becoming a [[Dead Horse Trope]]).
Warning: There may be [[Mister Seahorse|some disagreements]] as to who will carry any [[Half-Human Hybrid|children resulting from the union]].
{{examples
== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Martian Successor Nadesico]]'' parodies this trope by introducing Aquamarine, a cookie-cutter character of exactly this type in the [[Show Within a Show]] ''[[Gekiganger 3]]''. The protagonist Akito immediately identifies her as his dream girl, but when he finally meets a young woman with a similar name (just "Aqua") who appears superficially similar, she turns out to be a borderline psychotic with suicidal tendencies.
* ''[[To
* ''[[Super Dimension Fortress Macross]]'', features a Green ''Haired'' Space Babe:
** Notably, among all the similarities between ''Macross'' and the other two series' used to make ''[[Robotech]]'' is that all three of them have a green-haired alien girl who ends up falling for one of the good guys: Musica in ''Southern Cross'' and Sara in ''Mospeada''.
* Subverted in a recent{{when}} ''Dragonball'' web-broadcasted special. Vegeta's [[Remember the New Guy?|hitherto unmentioned brother]] is married. Assuming the rare examples of women in the series are the norm, everyone is surprised when she turns out to be a cartoonishly cute
** Another [[Incredibly Lame Pun|fine]] example is [[Space Pirate|Zangya]], who is a more literal example as well.
** The advent of Dragon Ball On-Line brought us the Majin race, and several pink skinned space babes. Much to the [[Fetish Fuel|delight]] of certain fans.
* ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'' has several, ranging from regular character Angol Mois to Space Policewoman Poyon to single-appearance ones.
* Lum in ''[[Urusei Yatsura]]'' certainly qualifies, as her green hair, fangs, and horns do nothing to hide the fact that she is ''extremely'' attractive (actually, [[Fetish Fuel|they add to it]]). The fact that most of the time she only wears [[Stripperific|a tiger print bikini with matching boots]] doesn't help much...

* Lyja is another example of an attractive female Skrull, who [[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Johnny Storm]] fell in love with after he got over the whole Skrull thing.
** Long before that, in the early Lee/Kirby era, there was an instance of mutual attraction between Johnny and the Skrull princess Anelle (who later became Hulkling's mother because of a tryst with Captain Mar-Vell. And during the Byrne era, he was by no means immune to the charms of green-skinned Earth babe She-Hulk. Who later whould [[Ho Yay|hang out with the sexy Skrull bounty-hunter Jazinda]].

** Sebulba has a pair of female Twi'leks that he uses as his personal servants. They pretty much act as his massagers and simply as a status symbol.
** The EU has the Zeltron race (magenta-skinned), who are perfectly aware of their attractive appearance and flaunt it. Some sources also claim they have mild pheromones, but not to the degree of the Falleen (below). They have a reputation (mostly deserved) as cheerful hedonists who'll do [[Anything That Moves]]. Both genders are like this.

* Though not portrayed as sexy (she is from a book written in 1897 by a German science teacher), the Martian La from ''Auf zwei Planeten'' (Two Planets) by Kurd Laßwitz is shown as attractive. She has [[Kaleidoscope Eyes|large eyes that change color]] and [[Heroes Want Redheads|reddish-blond hair]]. She ends up marrying Earthman Josef Saltner.

* Mark Watney invokes this late in ''[[The Martian]]'', commenting in his log:
{{quote|Well, if I could have ''anything'', it would be for the green-skinned yet beautiful Queen of Mars to rescue me so she can [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?|learn more about this Earth thing called "lovemaking."]]
It's been a long time since I've seen a woman.<ref>At that point, he'd been completely alone on Mars for more than one and a third Earth years.</ref> Just sayin'.}}
:* Given that ''The Martian'' ranks [[Mohs Scale of Science Fiction Hardness|among the hardest science fiction written]], it ain't gonna happen and Mark knows it; that was just his sense of humor at work.
▲== Live Action TV ==
* ''[[Star Trek]]'' had many examples, apart from the original (pictured above):
** TOS also featured a [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|Green-''Haired'']] Space Babe in the person of Shahna the Drill Thrall, in the episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion." Her ignorance of kissing is possibly the original source of another trope, [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]], applied to space aliens; she requested another example from Kirk to broaden her sample set.
** ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
** The various ''[[Star Trek]]'' series saw the Orion Slave Girls [[Flanderization|Flanderized]] into an entire species of
*** But, according to ''[[Enterprise]]'', they actually ''[[The Man Behind the Man|run things]]'', by keeping all the men in a permanent state of [[Distracted
** Also from ''[[Enterprise]]'' is the Andorian [[Action Girl]] Talas
** But whenever Harry Kim of ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]'' gets any hot space babe action, Janeway has a temper tantrum and invents Star Fleet regulations – possibly because ''his'' space babes [[Fatal Attractor|usually turn out to be evil and try to kill him]]. The one time he went for (or rather, was pursued by) a Klingon, the doctor just authorized him for interspecies relations and called it a day.
* ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'': Shephard usually gets the space babe, so in the episode "Harmony", Rodney demands the first chance at the eponymous princess, but then he discovers that she is age 13 and a [[Royal Brat]].
* ''[[The Wild Wild West (TV series)|The Wild Wild West]]'' episode "The Night of the Flying Pie Plate" features several ''literal''

** In fact Chiana's race, the Nebari (or at least the Nebari most likely to be encountered by other races), like the Twi'leks and Orions mentioned above, seem to have this as [[Planet of Hats|their hat]], for both the males and females-they're almost all free-love hippie drifters who have no problem at all with casual sex and sometimes have problems with fidelity and settling down. Of course, this turns out to be {{spoiler|an evil plan by the Nebari government: only the nonconformists are actually allowed to leave, and when they do, unknown to them they're secretly infected with an STD that can be activated to put whoever's had sex with them under the mind control of the Nebari}}

* ''[[Warhammer
** [[Our Elves Are Better|Eldar]] fit the trope, but not even the most Xeno-loving human should ever consider mating with Eldar, since they see this mostly as bestiality (especially with Craftworld Eldar). Dark Eldar are mostly fine with torturing you, though. Death by snu-snu is optional.
*** Old and most likely un-canon'd background mentions Eldar outcasts occasionally having relationships with humans.
** The Tau also fit the trope as blue-skinned space babes, considering the fact that they're the most open species in the 40K universe, and mating with humans would not be exactly outlawed. The hooves are another matter.
*** [[Bizarre Alien Biology|...Female Tau don't have]] ''[[Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism|breasts]]'', contrary to the fandom's expectations. You probably wouldn't ''want'' to mate with a Tau.
Line 155:
== Theater ==
* Elphaba from ''[[Wicked (theatre)| Wicked]]''.
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Talana, the Syreen commandress from ''[[Star Control]] 2'', is a textbook example (she even comes from a ''whole race'' composed mostly of beautiful blue-skinned women). Given [[Sliding Scale of Silliness Versus Seriousness|the tone]] of the game, this is heavily [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]].
* Psyme, one of your [[Love Triangle|two]] possible [[Love Interests]] from ''[[Sigma Star Saga]]'', is a ''Purple''-Skinned Space Babe.

* A common enemy in ''[[Redneck Rampage]]'' is just that; leather clad sadomasochistic big-breasted green/blue/red skinned alien babes who seem very interested in tying up and/or getting beat up by the redneck main characters. Arguably a parody of the trope. Despite claiming to love you, they'll just kill you dead unless you kill them first.
* In ''[[Mass Effect]]'', the asari are a race of blue-skinned space babes who can mate with any race ([[Discount Lesbians|and any gender]]). They're even encouraged to do this (mixed-genetics children are thought to be hardier) to the point where pure-bred asari children are discriminated against. [[Hot Scientist|Liara]] [[Lampshade Hanging|mentions all of this]]:
{{quote|
** A seemingly disproportionate number of asari are involved in exotic dancing. Then again, this is somewhat justified by their long lifespans, which can crack past a millennia. Many asari will engage in "wild child" activity for a stretch in the maiden stage before moving on to family in the matron stage and positions of importance in the matriarch stage.
** One asari actually ''turns'' green after an unfortunate encounter with an ancient plant-alien. She has a crush on Shepard.
** The asari are also parially a deconstruction of the concept, what with being the most advanced and powerful race in the galaxy. There's also a scene where a turian, salarian, and human are watching an Asari dancer, and they ''all'' think that she looks like their species. This lead to the [[Fan Wank]]/[[Epileptic Trees]][http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Talk:Asari#Asari_.22mind_control.22 that they have some sort of mind-control going on to make them seem attractive to all species].
Line 170:
** Thane, a drell, is a rare male example. Bonus points for being specifically designed to invoke this trope and appeal to the [[Mr. Fanservice|female fans]].
** ''[[Mass Effect 3]]'' finally resolves what quarians look like underneath their masks, but only if you've romanced Tali ''and {{spoiler|make sure the quarian fleet survives the battle over Rannoch}}. It turns out that they're practically [[Rubber Forehead Aliens]].
