Unsurprisingly, a character meant to represent the pinnacle of mysterious masculinity being babygirlified or bimbofied by Gen Z has the Call of Duty dudes pressed.
2022, Rachel Choi, "The babygirlification of Ghost in COD is threatening the incels", The Berkeley Beacon (Emerson College), 1 December 2022, page 4:
Ghost is, in its simplest terms, being babygirlified to the highest degree. Many predominantly female communities seem to be drawn to Ghost’s faceless and masked concept, low-toned voice, and general physique, deeming him their “babygirl” to express their fondness for him.
There’s an infantilizing undertone when fandom babygirlifies a fictional man, and some people also use the word in a horny way, echoing the meme of referring to characters as “submissive and breedable.” (See also: “He’s so babygirl.”)
At this point, I remember — and bring up — a tweet I saw recently, that drew a line between the many years that Succession fans spent caring (deeply) about the show’s (deeply) damaged men and the way they were able to quickly jump to the stage of “babygirlifying” the men of The Bear.
