When you go online and get yourself a body replacer with bodyslide options, the way your character looks is completely in your hands.” “In vanilla Skyrim or Fallout 4, you get skinny or slightly bigger skinny. “Most bimbo body-replacers give you a bodyslide option, and it’s something that really allows you to customize your character (hilariously) to be more realistic,” they said. Lili, a Twitter user I DMed about their use of bimbo mods who self-described as “a girl-loving, nonbinary gamer juggalo from New Orleans,” explained that they gravitate towards more natural-looking bimbo mods because they understand the human body in a way “vanilla games” do not. ![]() Despite what male video game developers might believe, the modern bimbo does not only equate to a thin, white girl - bimbos are a varied demographic. These mods give that exploration an outlet, and since they often incorporate heavier and hairier body types into their design, they also provide users the added bonus of body diversity. These queer and female-created mods are exciting (and amusing) for two communities that aren’t often catered to with mainstream video game design and historically, have been belittled for their exploration of gender and sex.

The “bimbo” resurgence follows a decade of explorative body modsįor the past few years, aided by the glamorous memory of Paris Hilton’s miniskirts and a reassessment of sex work by internet people who realized that money is cool, the word “bimbo” has flipped from meaning “brainless Barbie” to “savvy, powerful hot girl.” But for some makers and users of game mods, this positive spin on the bimbo isn’t exactly news. ![]()
