Line 1: {{trope}} [[File:~~bifauxnenandladette_8878~~bifauxnenandladette 8878.jpg\|link=Oniisama e...\|frame\|Hana no St. Juste and Kaoru no Kimi. Even their nicknames say it!]] This is mainly a [[Japanese Media Tropes]] but does occur occasionally in other media. Two [[Bifauxnen]] girls from the same anime have largely different personalities that lie on the traditional masculine spectrum. This has a tendency to happen in an [[~~Improbably-~~Fundamentally Female Cast]] where varying male personalities are limited and in [[Yuri Genre]] to give the [[Schoolgirl Lesbians]] and the audience one more androgynous girl to [[Fan Service\|drool over]]. This usually takes the form of one girl being a [[Ladette]] personality-wise and the other girl will be a more [[Cultured Badass\|refined]] [[Prince Charming]] complete with a [[Bishie Sparkle]]. Other variations exist as well, such as the likelihood that one may be more [[Lesbian Jock\|athletic]] while the other one is a [[Badass Bookworm]]. Expect a [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship]] if it's a [[Yuri Genre]]. Expect an [[Odd Friendship]] regardless. Line 10: Sometimes the girls will not get along and there will be moments of rivalry or even [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] [[Slap Slap Kiss\|between the two]]. Compare and Contrast [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]] ~~-- as~~—as well as its polar opposite, [[Light Feminine and Dark Feminine]]. In a way, this is also a female version of [[Noble Male, Roguish Male]]. {{examples}} Line 21: * In ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', Haruka Tenoh and her rival Seiya Kou plays the trope straight in the manga but only plays with it in the anime considering {{spoiler\|her gender in human form was changed to male in the anime}}. ** Taiki and Yaten seem to be this to Seiya. * In ''[[Strawberry Panic!\|Strawberry Panic]]'' [[Prince Charming\|Amane Ohtori]] plays this role opposite [[Psycho Lesbian\|Kaname Kenjo]]. * Rei and Sei from ''[[Mariasama ga Miteru]]''. Even their names fit the trope! * From ''[[Kure-nai]]'' we have Lin and Yayoi.
