* Guy Bennett in ''[[Another Country]]''. Nobody else has ever looked this badass in extremely effeminate dark sunglasses. And when he gets attacked by jocks he simply threatens to expose their numerous earlier homosexual experiences with him. Ka-Pow!

* ''[[The Boondock Saints]]'': When the Boston cops first notice Agent Paul Smecker's flirtatious behavior towards men and generally camp hand gestures, they start to laugh. Cue Smecker owning their asses for the rest of the movie. In fact, he gets progressively more camp ''and'' progressively more awesome, coming to the point where he {{spoiler|dresses up as a female hooker to infiltrate the big bad's mansion. He kills two goons and saves the heroes from their untimely demise.}}

* Ramon de la Vega aka Bunny Wigglesworth, the eponymous ''Zorro, The Gay Blade'', a utter [[Camp Gay]] but you don't want to get on the wrong side of his whip.

* Ser Loras Tyrell, the "Knight of Flowers" in ''[[Game of Thrones]]''. He is [[Bishounen|very pretty]] and [[Camp Gay|very effeminate]]. In his first appearance he rides in the Hand's Tourney and, through careful application of some trickery and [[Combat Pragmatist|Combat Pragmatism]]., unhorses the [[The Brute|seven-foot-tall]], [[Axe Crazy|psychopathic]] knight Ser Gregor Clegane.

* [[The Mighty Boosh|Vince Noir]] is one of these. He consistently ends up saving the day for his more masculine counterpart. He's a superb fisherman, and has many foppish "battle scars" as well as the fact that he's been shown to use a hair straightener as a weapon.

* Balder from ''[[Bayonetta]]''. He is an elderly sage who wears an ornamental gown along with the body of a white peacock draped around his shoulders, its feathers fanned out behind him. He proves himself a badass when, shortly after tossing Luka out of a window and stopping Bayonetta's bullets, he destroys two demons with little to no effort; he even [[The Fighting Narcissist|combs his hair with a feather]] after killing the second one.

* A mild example, but [[Smug Snake|Spy]] from [[Team Fortress 2]] qualifies in-context. Amidst a horde of brutish, smelly mercenaries, Spy considers himself a ''gentleman.''

* [[Deadly Doctor|Knock-Out]] from ''[[Transformers Prime]]'' is effeminate and vain, but can kick massive amounts of Autobot aft, especially when [[Bash Brothers|paired with his assistant]] [[The Brute|Breakdown]].
