Why is it still being written? The “born sexy yesterday” trope sends a clear message If even the most brilliant, powerful woman can lower her standards, abandon her origins, and submit to the guidance of a man, then so. The commonly used trope called born sexy yesterday usually refers to a woman that comes from another culture/world and is unaware of her own sex appeal, so she is easily impressed by anything the everyman explains/does to her This trope has been around for decades, but only recently has it started to be consciously understood. Perhaps the most poignant thing they have to say about born sexy yesterday is that, in practice, it just doesn’t work
In line with the trope, bella is created so that she can be easy to control and impress, while also being imbued with sexuality on account of her adult body. These are jokes, of course, but no one would get the joke if it wasn't referencing a real thing It's related to the 'born sexy yesterday' trope, which is still around (and tvt doesn't have a page for either.) This trope is basically about unbalanced relationships and male insecurity
