▲She is more likely than her male counterpart to be a temporary sexual encounter rather than a long-term girlfriend. And while the victim of a [[Bastard Boyfriend]] tends to come across as a lovable [[The Woobie|Woobie]] or sexy [[Love Martyr]], some stories with a [[Bastard Girlfriend]] make her victims come across as [[Double Standard Rape (Female On Male)|deserving whatever they get]], or that [[Double Standard Rape (Female On Male)|sexual acts done by females don't really count]]. There's also sometimes a naive attitude that such a thing [[All Abusers Are Male|can never happen for real anyway]].
Abusively sexy women often come off as one of three character types that are distinct but [[The Same but More Specific|too specific]] to have pages of their own:
* An '''Abusively Sexy Lady''' is classy, high status, and often [[Wicked Cultured]] kind of [[Brains and Bondage]]. She is likely to be beautiful...and this can be part of the [[Screw the Rules, I'm Beautiful|justification]] for her heinous acts.
* An '''Abusively Sexy Bitch''' is tacky and trashy, and may border on [[Abhorrent Admirer]]. This kind of character ''can'' be ugly, at least [[Hollywood Homely|by hollywood standards]].
* An '''Abusively Sexy Girl''' is a teenager rather than a mature adult. Ironically, her hotness is excused and made more socially acceptable by her abusiveness, [[Double Standard Abuse (Female
In any variation, she may be a [[Manipulative Bitch]] as well as a [[Magnificent Bitch]]. If she gets called out on her actions, don't be surprised if she pulls a [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit]] to get "rescued" from her ''victim''.

Also, it's not a matter of personal preference: when adding or editing examples that you personally don't consider sexy, please abstain from snarky comments about the authors/actors.

Also compare to [[Dominatrix]], who keeps the "abuse" strictly in the bedroom. Contrast [[Domestic Abuser]] and [[Unsexy Sadist]]. Strongly related to [[All Women are Doms, All Men are Subs]].

▲{{examples}}
== Anime and Manga ==
* Louise and Saito's relationship from ''[[
* [[Deconstructed Trope|Deconstructed]] with Asuka Langley Soryu in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. She is accused of being this to Shinji Ikari, but her really bad treatment of Shinji is '''not''' shown as glamourised abuse, but rather as a sign of [[Freudian Excuse|how deeply messed up both of them are.]] [[Dysfunction Junction|And everyone else.]]
* Akane and Shampoo in ''[[Ranma
* Early ''[[
* Athena of ''[[
* Haruka Hasegawa from ''[[Moyashimon]]'' constantly pummels Misato and Kawahama for being slackers or otherwise annoying her. However, while Misato and Kawahama both consider her hot, they're turned off and intimidated by her bad temper.
* [[Dark Chick|Adiane the Elegant]] from ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' is horrendously abusive to [[Iron Woobie|Viral]] when he becomes her subordinate. This is treated like part of his [[Badass Decay]] and played for laughs.
* Mio of ''[[MM
* In ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'', Karina's sponsors like to play her Blue Rose superhero persona up as a sexy dominatrix. Being a relatively normal teenage girl in reality, she's not exactly comfortable with this.
* Practically the entire plot of ''[[Domina no Do]]''. Hikari, the main female lead, was raised with two ''very'' rich parents who are also into BDSM, and who make no effort whatsoever to hide this, even from their young children. This has colored her entire outlook on
* Araragi's relationship with Senjogahara in ''[[
* In a chapter of the manga ''Torikago Gakyuu'', one of the characters wins a contest to have a date with his favorite model. Except, he's too shy to actually go through with it, so he gets protagonist [[The Woobie|Mikage]] to take her out for him while he watches. Mikage gets the surprise of his life when the model puts a collar and leash on him and forces him to walk on all fours and eat from the floor. {{spoiler|Turns out, the model isn't actually a [[Dominatrix]]; it's just her image. At the end, it's revealed that she was extremely uncomfortable treating Mikage that way.}}
* Subverted with Celty and Shinra in ''[[Durarara!!]]''. Sure, Celty punches Shinra and wraps him up in her shadows all the time, but it is outright stated that [[Too Kinky to Torture|Shinra actually]] ''[[Too Kinky to Torture|enjoys]]'' [[Too Kinky to Torture|the abuse]] and tends to goad her on for it. It's a very symbiotic relationship.
== Comic Books ==
* In ''[[Pondus]]'', Jocke used to have a horrible love-life before he found Camilla. Sometimes, he found a sexy woman instead of the regular flood of [[Abhorrent Admirer
* Emma Frost, the White Queen of ''[[X
* Pictured above, Mistress Mary, an alternate version [[Shazam|Mary Marvel]] who also happens to be a [[Dominatrix]]. She takes great joy in beating up [[Green Lantern
== Film ==
* The librarian in ''Tomcats''. The [[Jerkass]] protagonist seduces her, believing her to be a frail and naive little woman who he can use for sex (by pretending to care for her and want to become her boyfriend) and then discard. She turns out to be a crazy sadist with no interest whatsoever in playing [[Safe, Sane, and Consensual]]. {{spoiler|So is her Grandma}}.
* Gloria in ''[[
* Haley in ''[[Hard Candy]]'' pulls off a lot of nonconsensual sexual sadism against Jeff.
* In ''[[Psycho Beach Party]]'', Chicklet's second personality is one of these, screaming at men for sex, and organises one of them to wear a corset, writes "Ann Bowman was here" in scars on his bum, and spanks him.

== Live Action Television ==
* Amanda of the new ''[[Nikita (TV series)|Nikita]]'', Division's resident [[Torture Technician]].
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'':
** Vampire Willow and pretty much every other female vampire who doesn't get staked within an episode is this. (Okay, not Harmony.)
** Faith especially, who (at the absolute nadir of her sanity) holds a protesting Xander down in her bed, and seems entirely undecided about whether she's going to rape him, murder him, or both.
** Even Buffy herself with Spike in Season 6. Buffy actually breaks down crying when she discovers she didn't [[Came Back Wrong|come back wrong]], as it means that all the twisted things she's been doing for the past few months can't be blamed on some 'demon' part of her.
* [[Farscape
* On the season two episode of ''[[Titus]]'', Christopher goes to the funeral of his ex-girlfriend, Noelle, who, despite her verbal and physical abuse, he stayed with because "the booty was great".
* Lila in S2 of ''[[Dexter]]''. Completely abuses her position as addiction sponser with Dexter and even sets her own apartment on fire when she senses she's losing his attention in favour of Rita and the kids. Acts the doe-eyed damsel in distress when it suits her, but turns violent when thwarted, and is definitely the aggressor in any sexual relationships she indulges in. {{spoiler|After Dexter leaves her, she engages in rough sex with Angel, dopes herself with Rohypnol, and files rape charges, telling Dexter she'll drop the charges if he takes her back.}}
* The Evil Queen in ''[[Once Upon a Time (TV series)|Once Upon a Time]]'': after finding out he let Snow White live, she strips the Huntsman of his free will and keeps him as a [[Sex Slave]], promising to kill him if he ever tries to escape.
== Music ==

** Vriska
** Snowman/The Black Queen ([[Alternate Universe|both versions]]), particularly in her interactions with Jack Noir/Spades Slick. Very often, she abuses him in various ways, including putting a cigarette holder in his [[Eye Scream|eye]], removing an arm with a [[Whip It Good|whip]], forcing him into various costumes in the kids' section, and having a particularly violent "hate snog" with him. It's even flat-out said that they have a [[Foe Yay|blackrom thing going]].
Line 124 ⟶ 113:
* This perfectly sums up Callie on ''[[Ugly Americans]].'' Her relationship with the show's main character, Mark, basically involves breaking into his bedroom whenever she's in the mood to jump his bones and/or brutally torture him. In the first episode, she writes "See you in Hell" on his bedroom wall in his blood, and the wall is still stained whenever his room is seen in later episodes. Mark puts up with it because she's hot and it's sex. Of course, she's a succubus and literally from Hell, so it's possible she doesn't know how to be gentle. She's been working on not being like that.
