Have the kinda body always in demand''|'''The [[Village People]]''', "Macho Man"}}

Usually in most Western media, a man who is [[Camp Gay]] is of thin or average build. Not so here. [[Macho Camp]] is what you get when a [[Camp Gay]] character looks large and muscular, most often to bodybuilder level builds. Some are in the [[Transparent Closet]], and vehemently deny their gayness, while others are quite open about it, but one thing's for sure: it's really not something you want to tease them about. They ''do'' have muscles on muscles, after all.

'''Macho Camp''' is what you get when a [[Camp Gay]] character looks large and muscular, most often to bodybuilder level builds. Some are in the [[Transparent Closet]], and vehemently deny their gayness, while others are quite open about it, but one thing's for sure: it's really not something you want to tease them about. They ''do'' have muscles on muscles, after all.

Though the trope usually involves campy behavior, such characters are also often portrayed [[Testosterone Poisoning|as being so overly manly that it becomes impossible to take seriously]]. These types tend to be prone to flexing and talking about how macho they are, all the while being a rather obvious gay stereotype.

* Scarron from ''[[Zero no Tsukaima]]''.

* Muscle Okama from ''[[Zettai Karen Children]]''. Besides the leather getup, his psychic ability is crotch beams. As if calling a [[Macho Camp]] character [http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/okama "okama"] weren't enough...

* Despite the large number of cute [[Petting Zoo People]] girls in the show and Keita's clear interest in them, ''[[Inukami!]]'' has plenty of manservice in the form of Hard Gays; disturbingly so. Keita is on the receiving end of most of it, and is ''respected'' among the fetish and hard gay communities. The show has plenty of [[Censor Steam]] in the form of elephants on top of all this. It even goes so far as to give these men their own [[Special Edition Title|version of the ending]] once.

* Parodied in the [[Fan Service]] showdown in ''[[Aoi House]] In Love!''

* Montrose from ''[[Leet World]]'' is this ''and'' [[Camp Gay]], with his character model being with bared, muscled arms and a bandana, being called the best shot on the Terrorist team aside from Cortez by Cortez, and having an unforgettable comeback ~~line -- but~~ he has said something which really make you say "gay." And was the character most pre-concerned with cleaning up the house.

Line 71:

* [[Shadow Hearts|Joachim Valentine]] carries a noticable aura that says basically, "just because I'm gay doesn't mean I can't crush your bones." The Great Gama too for that matter.

** In the same game, you unlock another character's special modes by paying a [[Camp Gay]] tailor with ''trading cards'' of men.

* In ''Super Gem Fighter'', Sakura has a special attack that summons a bunch of [[Macho Camp]] men to grab the opponent, run offscreen with him, and... well, [[Discretion Shot|whatever it is that they're doing to him]], it involves about 20 hits of damage...

** And when the affected character (male or female) was thrown back onto the screen they looked like they actually enjoyed it.

* The third game in the ''[[Streets of Rage]]'' series had a Hard Gay miniboss named Ash who ran around, bodyslammed you and then giggled like a little girl. When you beat him, he'd sit on the ground and cry. After beating him, you could use him as a player character. For obvious reasons, he was [[Dummied Out]] of the US version although it was still possible to play him using game genie codes.
