It's hard to tell what does it exactly. Maybe it's the tendency of good guys to have larger Johnsons than their evil counterparts. Perhaps it's the realization that Good People Have Good Sex. But for some reason or other, sending an evil woman to seduce a hero has a surprisingly high turnover rate. There's a very good chance that's she'll just decide to bat for the other team (moral team, that is) rather than stick to the original plan. The sexier the hero, the more likely this will work. For a darker relative, see Rape Is Redemption. Related to Sex Is Good. Examples of Sex Face Turn include:

  • It's hard to tell what does it exactly. Maybe it's the tendency of good guys to have larger Johnsons than their evil counterparts. Perhaps it's the realization that Good People Have Good Sex. But for some reason or other, sending an evil woman to seduce a hero has a surprisingly high turnover rate. There's a very good chance that's she'll just decide to bat for the other team (moral team, that is) rather than stick to the original plan. The sexier the hero, the more likely this will work. To make some sense out of this trope, look at this way. Sex Equals Love right? And Love Redeems, right? So sex redeems. If you're a woman, anyway--this is rarely used with female heroes, making this something of a sexy Double Standard. The trope may have a foot on reality's ground, for less than intuitive reasons: usually the villain is a villain for everyone, this including his or her female agents (who may get it even worse in their own camp compared to other minions of the Big Bad, for being at the same time female, spies and whores). If the good guys prove their own goodness in bed, but at the same time in their manners, way of acting and treating her, this may be the last straw to convince her it's the proper time to switch boats. The trope can also be gender inverted, with a male (usually the protagonist) suddenly being a lot more interested in helping some group after sleeping with a woman who's in the group. For more wordplay on related tropes, think of this as Sex Equals Redemption as opposed to Redemption Equals Sex. Here, the redemption comes after the sexual encounter instead of before. May or may not be a part of a High Heel Face Turn and In Love with the Mark. Very common as a result of Go Seduce My Arch-Nemesis, markedly less so in a Honey Trap. If the sex itself doesn't cause redemption, but she gets knocked up and that does, it's Deliver Us From Evil. Also see Villainesses Want Heroes which is basically the same except she doesn't succeed.
