      Maybe it’s just me, but when I think of steampunk, I imagine women wearing the bottom half of a dress and a corset. Usually corsets are worn under clothing and is similar to a bra. It doesn’t help that lingerie is very similar in appearance to corsets

        Also, useless gears on every single thing, even if they don’t move. And tophats with a pair of goggles while also having a pair of goggles of the same type on the neck. And there are gears on the tophat of course.

          Still shuddering about Clockwork Planet where t hey somehow rebuild an another planet mostly with gears and everywhere are just gears stack on top of each other connecting to nothing. It’s just gears all the way down, because, that’s how it works.

      Its the women who put on a corset and use it to smash their tiddies way up under their chin… also a significant portion who decide that knee high high heeled boots, long skirts that have a split very high on the thigh and fishnets complete the ensemble.

      Its less victorian and more cowboy era saloon prostitute, but you dont hear me complaining.

      Horny “about” it. It’s just slang that means people like it, possibly to an excessive degree. Like I would say I’m horny for SoulsBorne games…
