they are just this thing that is only to be looked at, fetishized and wanked over
Fetishized is exactly it. Because they no longer resemble anything in the real world, they're some fantasy completely removed from it. This kinda makes me feel less guilty for my fondness of the way Jaime Hernandez and Sam Kieth draw women, because, though stylized as any drawing will be, I can relate them to body-types of women I see every day.
