There are a couple of other thoughts here. One is that there's a topological similarity between a mermaid and a woman in a long skirt. Both obscure the bifurcation of the legs, uniting them into a single entity. It's hard to imagine that there wasn't some influence of the image of a woman in a long skirt on the idea of a mermaid.

I might be overthinking all this, though. It might be that mermaids and sirens and tritonesses and so on were just a way to sneak some bewbs into your classical art.

But if you think of mermaids as enchanting creatures that entice sailors to crash their ships onto the rocky shore, then the womanly half is more like the lure of an angler fish than anything else. An attractive extrusion to entice prey.

I think there is some conflation of sirens and mermaids, although I guess the original sirens from Greek mythology were more birdlike.

So, maybe that's sexy? The Other?

There's a really good, freaky mermaid in the 2019 film The Lighthouse. It's an absolute monster with sharp teeth and a scary, alien body.
