@Anti-Matter Well, the least you can do, if you're also teaching that to children, is to make different-shaped figures, such as non-muscled, slightly overweight, skinny and so on, you know, like there also are in real life? And let's also show something else instead of just boxers.
If you teach kids that drawing humans is all about weird body proportions, and being extremely muscular and sporty, then I'd say you're teaching them the wrong thing, because it will influence their image of the world, and if they themselves might not be able to fit that description, for example because they are overweight, or can't do sports for some other reason, then it might even affect their self-esteem, making them feel inferior.
Variety is the spice of life, my friend. So, even if you stay in Chibi-mode, at least try and make something else from time to time, instead of just half-naked Thai boxers. Some of us actually like girls...

I'm almost sure the boxers are things he draws for his own, uh, pleasure in his free time. I doubt he teaches kids to draw exclusively half naked buff men.
@Anti-Matter The buff chibi boxers just remind @ThanosReXXX of that time he got forced to play Cho Aniki in VR. @ReaderRagfish And never use erasers because it could be interpreted that only by removing flaws can we be perfect. And don't use smiley faces, because it's ok to be sad.

@HobbitGamer Mjeh.... kinda. But it's a bit too long to describe, and you'd also have to see the guy performing it, since his hysterical, schizophrenic act really adds to the atmosphere of it.
I've actually spent the last hour trying to find that specific part of his show on YouTube, but I only found Dutch versions without subs, and the CC doesn't work because he talks so hysterically, that YouTube even mangles his words in the native language, let alone putting the captions in English.
I did find out that he also did a show in London, but unfortunately, the stick figure skit wasn't a part of it.
I might get back to you about it, and give you a transcript of it in English, but after having plowed through dozens of videos, I think I'm going to take a break for now.

Never played that, luckily. No... it's more that, being a straight man, I can only stomach a certain amount of images of buff, half-naked men (cartoony or not) being seared into my retina, and by now, I'm well and truly past that limit, for the next month or so...
@ReaderRagfish Street Fighter? Man, can't even remember the last time I played that.
Oh, wait: I actually can, because it was when I got my SNES Mini...
But I've always played those games with all, or most of the characters. Small, pixelated figures on screen are just fine by me, but being heavily overdosed with half-screen-sized chibi steroid droids is a bit too much...

Right...?
Ooh...
I have a Lot of Different drawings for my teaching materials.
Of course it will be Not six pack boxers (all the time).
The drawings are varied depend on level of Primary class.
@Anti-Matter Well, there you go, see? That's what I was talking about: a little variety, and not just boxers, or men. These are very nice, and I also prefer these pencil drawings to the other ones, because I like the color gradients in pencil colors more than the computerized(?) graphics. Perhaps you also have some animals or landscapes to share? And DO you actually have some stuff that is non-chibi?

@Anti-Matter: Holy cow, those are amazing! I can only achieve something that doesn't look like complete garbage after about five million tries! (And a LOT of erasing....)
