Succubus and Incubus
This blogpost will be covering Tropes vs Women and specifically "The Evil Demon Seductress" made by Feminist Frequency. While I do agree that when not properly told and given development these types of characters can be flat and mostly for eye candy see the shapeshifter Decepticon Anita mentions. My biggest problem is an overlooked fact by Anita in researching the origins of these types of character she cites an 1886 scientist named Leland Ossian Howard for the as one of the roots for this trope. When in fact besides the nickname Preying Mantis it was already an established type of character by this point one such character who are the origin of the main name for this trope are the demon types, Succubus and Incubus. The most popular of the Succubus and Incubus are Lilith and Satan themselves though for simplicities sake the basic concept is that the Succubus would seduce human men to acquire semen to be given to the Incubus to impregnate human woman to create more demons.
