* ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' plays with this a lot. Tedd's [[Transformation Ray]] actually has a setting [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2006-11-01 designed to turn males into attractive females.] It also turns the girls into attractive males. In fact, one of the variations also gives the transformed person [[Love Is in the Air|enhanced pheromones]], or in Tedd's own words, making them [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2002-06-14 "smell sexy".] It then subverts the inversion by giving Sarah a male form that is decidedly less hunky -- (though [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2006-01-09 VERY bishounen], making for a possible [[Double Subversion]].) Tedd, meanwhile, looks very feminine even as a boy, to the point that guys [[Gender Bender|(and guys who are turned into girls)]] [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2002-06-15 feel quite] [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-05-21 awkward around him.]
** Sarah also falls into the trap of being briefly attracted to herself when she looks in a mirror.
** And Susan herself gets [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2005-10-17 ''weirded out''] when surrounded by girls in her male form (because one of the side effects of the TFG's gender-swapping settings is [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2005-08-09 heterosexuality in the altered sex]).
*** The comic now has a favourite [[Justified Trope|justification]]: [[Chivalrous Pervert|Tedd]] [[Mad Scientist|designs]] the forms, and [[Invoked Trope|he sees no reasons to make more ugly people]].
* Subverted in ''[[Narbonic]]'': Dave's female form is just plain dumpy. ("[http://www.webcomicsnation.com/shaenongarrity/narbonic/series.php?view=archive&chapter=9895 Aren't women normally shaped more like Jennifer Lopez?" "Despite what you've been taught, no."])
