I’m curious if there is a correlation between people who grew up watching shows like Ben Ten and people who now look at stuff like spider women like “yeah, I’m down”
not sure if you meant to say the superhero, marvel spiderman-esque type of spider women or an actual anthropomorphic female spider monster but either way:
i think that there's a possible correlation given both of the things and their sci-fi theming, and other things like genetic & body mutation from an unknown device/thing (if we're refering to the superhero spider women concept). as for the other option it must be pretty clear given the idea of aliens and creatures in general, it wouldn't surprise me if that same person who watched ben 10 was also into monsters or monstergirls (or spider woman as you said)
personally for me, during my childhood i was a huge fan of ben 10 and i loved the show including the alien designs, and it overall may had an influence on me currently liking monster related characters, leaning my interest towards these, i'm not too much of a superhero comics person to like spider women but they're quite neat
