Line 4:
The '''Hot Dad''', a male parental figure that caters to the ''female'' (or [[Fan Yay|gay male]]) demographic's wants and desires.
 
The Hot Dad possesses an appearance more fitting for half his age, and is often a widower. He dotes on [[Daddy's Girl|his daughter]] with a [[Overprotective Dad|borderline-homicidal protectiveness]] should any male her age even glance at her. If his wife is still alive she is almost always a [[Hot Mom]]. To the utter embarrassment of their child, they [[Sickeningly Sweethearts|act like high-schoolers]] in love in front of his/her friends.
 
Sometimes abbreviated as a DILF, short for "Daddy I'd Like (to) Fuck."
Line 26:
** {{spoiler|Also Tomoya becomes a Hot Dad, as well. And fits more in the model, at least after episode 18 of ''After Story''}}
* Deathscythe aka Spirit Albarn, Maka Albarn's father in ''[[Soul Eater]]'' is the greatest Weapon/Warrior of Death City on top of being a handsome, kind-hearted and devoted father. His '''only''' flaw is, unfortunately, that he is [[Lovable Sex Maniac|a cheating loser whose unfaithful behavior cost him his marriage and his daughter's respect]].
* [[Jungle wa Itsumo Hale Nochi Haré+Guu|Hare's dad]] is one of these(goes with [[Hot Mom|his mom]]). He's [[Jerkass|kind of]] [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|a jerk though]].
* The Miyazawa family's father, Takashi, in ''[[Kare Kano]]''. Also, Tsubasa Shibahime's father; he's so handsome that Yukino lampshades the trope by going googly-eyed when she meets him.
** Also, {{spoiler|Souichiro Arima himself at the end of the series.}}
Line 47:
* Ginji Kawai, Sasami's dad in the ''[[Pretty Sammy]]'' series, who apparently can do ''anything'', including going out in space as an astronaut.
* Not shoujo, but close enough, Shiro Takamachi of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' is an ex-assassin/bodyguard now bakery owner.
** And he was [[SchrodingersSchrödinger's Cat|dead]] in [[Triangle Heart 3 ~sweet songs forever~|the series]] that he and his family were originally from.
* ''[[Akkan Baby]]'' had the seafaring, long-haired, nice and roguishly handsome dad of the male lead. The "hot" part of the trope was averted with the father of the female lead who was chubby and somewhat cowardly, though also very nice and he, at least, didn't tend to [[Parental Abandonment]].
* While he's not actually Rosette's father (merely her legal guardian), Father Remington of ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' could quite possibly fit this trope. ''Rosette herself'' even has a crush on him! ([[Sexy Priest|Can you blame her, tho?]])
Line 82:
* Mr. Koiwai from ''[[Yotsubato]]''.
* ''[[Mai-Otome]]'' seemed to be trying for this with Nina's adoptive father Sergey.
* ''[[Bleach]]''{{'}}s Dr. Isshin Kurosaki. Seriously, [http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a213/ghostlibrarian/Bleach%20Characters%20100/Bleach%20141/Ishin141-2.jpg just look at him]. And that's even before we find out {{spoiler|that he's also a pretty badass Soul Reaper on par with Ichigo himself, a fact he's forced to reveal to a few minor characters when he takes on the Hollow that killed his wife in order to protect Ichigo's (Kon-inhabited) body. ''[http://www.zerochan.net/182213 Damn]''.}}
** There's also [[media:Ryuuken122-2.jpg|Dr. Ishida Ryuuken]], who looks more like Uryuu's older brother than his father. And as it turns out, he's not just [[Dr. Jerk]], {{spoiler|he's actually more powerful than his son, he just can't be bothered to use his powers; and he's known Isshin and his secret for a long time.}} [[media:Ryuken color.jpg|Oh yeah.]]
* Akane Tendo's dad Soun from [[Ranma ½]] is tall, dark and handsome. He's generally a good guy too despite being very emotional and friends with [[Jerkass|Genma]].
Line 115:
 
 
== ComicsComic Books ==
* [[Batman]] currently has ''six'' kids running around the DCnU: his biological son, three adopted sons, one adopted daughter, and one biological daughter from a parallel universe.
* Arguably, Magnus aka Magneto from the [[X-Men]].
** [[Standardized Leader|Cyclops']] father [[Lovable Rogue|Corsair]] and [[Nineties Anti-Hero|son]] [[Cable]] (who is also a father, as well as a [[Papa Wolf|father figure]] in recent arcs) have significant followings of their own. Cyke himself is a bit more of a [[Base Breaker]], though out of the three men [[Tall, Dark and Handsome|fits the physical type best.]]
* In ''[[Gold Digger (Comic Book)|Gold Digger]]'', Theodore Diggers: father of three, grandfather, and all-around beefcake. He ''still'' makes women swoon well into his sixties, including his own [[Hot Mom|hot wife]] Julia.
* In ''[[Teen Titans (Comic Book)|Teen Titans]]'' and ''[[Green Arrow]]'', Roy Harper definitely qualifies.
 
Line 145:
* In Marisha Pessl's ''[[Special Topics in Calamity Physics]]'', Blue Van Meer's father Gareth is one of these. Constantly moving around, he seduces a string of attractive women and discards them when he tires of them. Blue eventually comes to realize what a [[Jerkass]] he is.
* Mentioned in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novel ''Father Time''. The Eighth Doctor appears to be around forty and is such a [[Mr. Fanservice]] that the actor who played him actually has his own Estrogen Brigade. Miranda, his [[Children Raise You|adopted daughter]], has a best friend and classmate who, at only fifteen, [[squick]]s said daughter by saying he's "gorgeous" and "hunky" and inquiring as to whether he "go[es] in for the schoolgirl type," and generally displays an excessive interest in his ([[Chaste Hero|almost nonexistent]]) love life.
* Oberyn Martell, of ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire]]''. Has 8eight bastard daughters and is a [[Memetic Sex God]].
** Some consider Eddard "Ned" Stark as one too. He's played by [[Sean Bean]] in the live-action, so...
** {{spoiler|Jaime Lannister}} is one too, as {{spoiler|the incestuous lover of his sister Cersei and the father of her three kids.}}
Line 152:
 
== Live-Action TV ==
* ''[[Californication|]]'': Hank Motherfuckin' Moody]].
* The Doctor himself from ''[[Doctor Who]]'' used to be a father (before the Time War). Not to mention {{spoiler|his clone daughter Jenny}}. One of his first companions was his granddaughter.
** {{spoiler|Rory Williams}} in series 6six is another good example.
** Alan Jackson, Maria's father, on ''[[The Sarah Jane Adventures]]''. He cooks, cleans, works out, skateboards, and fends off his ex-wife. All the while managing to remain oblivious to all the oddness in his daughter's life since they moved the house opposite a former ''[[Doctor Who]]'' companion. {{spoiler|That is until Maria gets abducted by aliens who use [[Ret-Gone]], because he had a doohickey in his possession that made him immune he remembers her and goes [[Papa Wolf]] on said aliens.}} His {{spoiler|replacement character}} Haresh is pretty hot as well.
** In ''[[Torchwood]]'', {{spoiler|Jack Harkness}} has at least one daughter. She's naturally starting to {{spoiler|look older than he does}}, and although they care a lot about each other, she doesn't want him to freak out her own child. This being ''Torchwood'', [[It Gets Worse]].
Line 162:
* Burt from [[Raising Hope]]. And he's a grandfather, too!
* Dr. Mohinder Suresh in ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' fits into this trope in the second season, after he and Matt Parkman take Molly under their wings.
* ''Helo from [[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|the 2004 ''Battlestar Galactica]]'''s Helo]].
* <s>[[Firefly|Captain Reynolds]]</s> Rick Castle from ''[[Castle]]''.
* Peyton's Dad in ''[[One Tree Hill]]''. Brooke once referred to him as "a total DILF".
Line 170:
* [[Mad Men|Don Draper]] certainly counts.
* Aaron Hotchner of ''[[Criminal Minds]]''. [[The Stoic|Stoic]] [[Badass]] who will make your life hell for touching his [[True Companions|team]], never mind his ''actual'' son. [[Despair Event Horizon|God help]] anyone (especially the Reaper) who goes after Jack.
* Housekeeper Tony on ''[[Who's The Boss?]]''.
* Robby Ray Stewart from ''[[Hannah Montana]]''.
* Mark Sloan from ''[[Grey's Anatomy]]''.
Line 186:
* Jim from ''[[The Office]]''.
* George from ''[[Suburgatory]]''.
* B.J. Hunnicutt from ''[[MASHM*A*S*H (television)|M*A*S*H]]''.
* Julius from ''[[Everybody Hates Chris]]''.
* Frank from ''[[Step by Step]]''.
* Mike Brady from ''[[The Brady Bunch]]''.
* Don't forget the OG of hot dads, Ricky Ricardo from ''[[I Love Lucy|Ricky Ricardo]]''.
* Mr. Sheffield from ''[[The Nanny]]''
* Sheriff Stilinski and Chris Argent (Allison's father, [[Fan Nickname|also known as Papa Argent]]) from ''[[Teen Wolf (TV series)|Teen Wolf]]''.
* Det. Elliot Stabler from ''[[Law and& Order: SVUSpecial Victims Unit]]'', especially pre-[[Hollywood Pudgy|beer gut]].
* Ted from ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'' will arguably become this once his kids are properly born.
 
 
== Video Games ==
* Ephraim and Eirika's faher Fado in ''[[Fire Emblem]]'' is still quite [https://web.archive.org/web/20111115114807/http://serenesforest.net/media/fe8illust/few/Fado.jpg rugged looking] and [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v139/VincentASM/Site/FE8/Fardo.gif handsome]. This is made [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XFKUuyvg8c fun of] in the [[Memetic Mutation|Gheb]] patch.
** Innes and Tana's father King Hayden [https://web.archive.org/web/20111115114810/http://serenesforest.net/media/fe8illust/few/Hayden.jpg isn't hard] [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v139/VincentASM/Site/FE8/Hayden.gif on the eyes], either.
** L'Arachel's uncle [[Parental Substitute|and caretaker]], [http://fireemblem.wikia.com/wiki/Mansel Pontifex Mansel], counts too.
