“The Pose” is simple. You have an artist who wants to draw a girl to be a bit enticing but he is not sure what part of the anatomy a majority of his readers enjoy. Are they attracted to a nice set of breasts or do they prefer a well formed posterior? If you draw the girl from the front you can have a detailed look at the beauty of the hills but the bottom is hidden from sight. On the other hand if you look from the back the rump is on fill display but the top is harder to see in its full glory. So the artist uses his trump card contained within “The Pose” by drawing a girl as is she were the most dedicated discus thrower on the planet. You can’t just be looking over your shoulder. That is not fully doing “the Pose.” When engaged in “The Pose” the character is turning around to look behind them enough that both breasts are fully visible which as far as I can tell would a decent amount of flexibility in real life.  It seems rather uncomfortable to me especially if you were to try an maintain the position for any reasonable amount of time.

Yes, I just talked about a silly fan service pose for a whole post. But it is such an odd phenomenon that I have to wonder if it has  a name. I am not an artist nor have I taken art classes so if this pose has a name I would be curious to know what it is. If it does not have a name we as a community should give it one. As nerds obsessed with nomenclature in general it seems our sacred duty.
