== Rape in General ==
=== Comedy[[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ===
* [[Russell Howard]]'s stand up act includes [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOTaJr27-WU Yawn Rape]!
* [[Frankie Boyle]] found out that Rape is in predictive text. Why would Rape be in predictive text!? "Sorry mum, will be late for dinner, [[Crosses the Line Twice|gone raping]].
* There is a [[Hentai]] by the name of Power Play which is basically about an [[Evil Overlord|Evil Sex King]] kidnapping and raping beautiful girls into his [[Victim Falls For Rapist|harem]]. His evil plot to do this to all [[Bishoujo Series]] in the world is constantly thwarted by three female magic knights. Their tactic: raping him dry and thus powerless. The result: the warrior girls and the king attempting to outrape each other.
* It's not too uncommon for a lighter-hearted H-doujin to feature a woman being raped - and focusing entirely on some tiny little detail (like being late for work or some such thing) and completely ignoring the rape itself.
 
=== [[Fan Works]] ===
* Any time a [[So Bad It's Good]] fanfic attempts a rape scene. It's often [[Stealth Parody|hard to tell]] whether or not this is intentional.
* In ''[[Promstuck]]'', [http://promstuck.tumblr.com/post/7296762833/step-6-8e-on-top Vriska says it is important to always be on top during sex], [[Critical Research Failure|because that means you're winning]]. She also tells John not to bother with foreplay and go straight for the goods ("no-one 8others with the salad 8ar, John!"), and that 'negotiating clear boundaries' are for 'dowdy middle-aged English professors'. Fortunately, being in a fanfic, the humour relies on the audience knowing this is completely wrong, and that Vriska is therefore an extremely inexperienced blowhard who had no idea what she's talking about.
* "Fail!rape" crops up occasionally; this refers to [[Attempted Rape]] which fails in a humorous manner. An ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' [[Kink Meme]] fill loosely inspired by the infamous "Financial Crisis Gang Bang" comic falls under this heading; in it, Canada is extremely angry at America and decides to rape him as "punishment", but Canada is "too polite and too French to make sex unpleasant".
 
=== [[Recorded and Stand Up Comedy]] ===
* [[Russell Howard]]'s stand up act includes [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOTaJr27-WU Yawn Rape]!
* [[Frankie Boyle]] found out that Rape is in predictive text. Why would Rape be in predictive text!? "Sorry mum, will be late for dinner, [[Crosses the Line Twice|gone raping]].
* On [[Chelsea Lately]], sometimes the comedian Loni Love will suddenly grab the man sitting next to her by the head and kiss him. She calls it "face-raping someone".
* The Brazilian comedian "Rafinha Bastos" told a lot of rape jokes of man by man, and even told one about him being a child/teen prostitute that would please truck drivers. Things hit the fan when he made a joke about ugly women thanking the rapists, and another that he would "do" a famous actress and her baby.
Line 32 ⟶ 39:
'''Q''': Why don't rapists eat at TGI Friday's?
'''A''': Well, it's hard to go out and ''rape'' when you've got a stomachache! }}

Line 69 ⟶ 71:
** In gym class when everyone has to tell a secret, Snot's is "My therapist says I'm a bad kisser".
** The episode "Jenny Fromdabloc" has Roger and Snot having sex, although it's revealed that Roger was using a stress ball instead of a, ya know. Speaking of Roger, he also did that weird chin innuendo with Steve in "License to Till." In "School Lies" when he's dressed up like Steve, he wants Stan to kiss him on the lips because he "wants that kind of relationship".
 
 
== Rape of/by Animals ==
Line 136 ⟶ 137:
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20191204052229/https://ocweekly.com/why-oc-weeklys-cover-this-week-features-a-donkey-drumpf-ing-trump-7166923/ OC Weekly]'s cover showing a donkey (the mascot of the US Democratic Party) attempting to mount Donald John Trump, who at the time (2016) was the Russian-backed Republican Party candidate for the US presidency.
** Likely a thinly-veiled reference to the (apocryphal or fictional) [[Tijuana Donkey Party]], a purported [[Anatomically-Impossible Sex|live sex show]] involving a male donkey and human female. The Mexican theme fits as Trump had campaigned on an blatantly anti-Mexico platform, labelling Mexicans as "bad hombres" and proposing to stick that country with the cost of a multi-billion dollar border wall.
** In any case, the image of a Democratic political donkey indecently assaulting a Republican candidate has been used before, on a 2012 [https://web.archive.org/web/20191201095057/https://www.riverfronttimes.com/newsblog/2012/11/26/and-the-winning-todd-akin-headline-is Riverfront Times] cover targeting Rep. Todd Akin (R-Missouri). Akin had tried to justify his anti-abortion stance by claiming to KTVI-TV that victims of "legitimate rape" rarely get pregnant.
* In typical fashion, ''[[The Onion]]'' parodied this in one article, which reported a zookeeper's rape and subsequent death at the hands of an adult black bear as "the lighter side of the news" and full of [[Hurricane of Puns|really horrendous puns]]. Notable in being one of the only articles that [[Dude, Not Funny|is no longer on the main site]].
 
Line 211 ⟶ 212:
=== [[Live Action TV]] ===
* In one particular Bartender game of the British ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway?|Whose Line Is It Anyway]]'', Ryan sings of his eternal love for his teddy bear. Being an improv show, sometimes scrambling for words leads people to... odd places. Because things weren't disturbing enough, Josie decides to reach for a little Rape of Animals to finish off the scene. At least she has the decency to look horrified at what's come out of her mouth. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5FcPpys_b90 It really has to be seen to be believed.]
 
=== [[New Media]] ===
* In the second season of ''[[Mighty Moshin' Emo Rangers]]'' the rangers defeat [[Avril Lavigne|Avril Bot]], after which lead ranger Ross rebuilds her to be an unwilling sex bot.
 
=== [[Newspaper Comics]] ===
Line 241 ⟶ 245:
** Another episode had Peter being raped by steam ''coming off of a pie.'' The steam made Quagmire [[Forced to Watch|watch.]]
* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'': Barney Gumble once mentioned he drunkenly had his way with Moe's pool table. Repeatedly.
 
 
== Rape by Monsters ==
Line 325 ⟶ 328:
* ''[[Beerfest]]'' at first makes it look like Jay Chandrashekar's character is being taken advantage of, he fades in and out of beer goggle vision of the woman he picked up at the bar. When he wakes up and turns over, he stares up at the ceiling camera and says "Naaah, I knew all along!"
* In ''[[Super Troopers]]'', while Foster is posing as a flasher in front of the police station, Ursula (his soon to be love interest) holds him at gunpoint from behind and uses a voice changing device to make him think he's about to be raped.
** ArguablyPlayed atwith leastin ''[[Super]]'': Libby (played with,by if[[Elliot notPage]]) avertedrapes wholly.Frank TheDarbo (played by [[Rainn Wilson]]) - but while the build up to the scene is certainly played for laughs, with (Page's character isbeing hilariously bad at seduction) but, the actual rape is shown to be fairly traumatic for Wilson's character. It even deals with the guilt he feels afterwards (/in a surprisingly grown-up way; ''he/'' considers it cheating on his girlfriend, and is pretty skeeved out as Page is significantly younger than him) in a surprisingly grown up way.
* In ''[[Super]]'', [[Ellen Page]] rapes [[Rainn Wilson]].
** Arguably at least played with, if not averted wholly. The build up to the scene is certainly played for laughs (Page's character is hilariously bad at seduction) but the actual rape is shown to be fairly traumatic for Wilson's character. It even deals with the guilt he feels afterwards (/he/ considers it cheating on his girlfriend, and is pretty skeeved out as Page is significantly younger than him) in a surprisingly grown up way.
* In the third ''[[Basket Case]]'' the sheriff's [[Seemingly-Wholesome Fifties Girl|Seemingly Wholesome Fifties Daughter]] randomly turns out to be a [[Dominatrix]] who tries to rape Duane, much to the sheriff's annoyance.
* In ''[[Horrible Bosses]]'', [[Jennifer Aniston]]'s [[Depraved Dentist]] character has her way with male patients while they're under the gas.
* In ''[[Get Him to The Greek]]'', [[Jonah Hill]]'s character is raped by a woman named Destiny with a large Dildo.
 
=== [[Literature]] ===
* In ''Myra Breckinridge'', the titular character anally rapes a man using a strap-on dildo. This act is generally construed as [[Family-Unfriendly Aesop|teaching the man a lesson]] and making a statement for sexual equality. The entire work satirized sex, gender, and sexual practices.
* This happens in Judith Krantz's novel ''I'll Take Manhattan'''s between Maxi and her ex Rocco—at one point she grabs his penis during an argument, which leads to a hard-on, which leads to... well, him saying she raped him afterwards.
* In the first chapter of John Irving's ''[[The World According to Garp]]'', a book that is otherwise largely concerned with gender equality, Jenny Fields {{spoiler|mounts an unconscious, brain-damaged soldier with priapism in order to get pregnant}}. She goes on to detail this in her autobiography and is never called on it.
* In Robert Jordan's ''[[The Wheel of Time]]'', [[The Lancer]] and [[Fun Personified]] Matt Cauthon comes to the palace of Queen Tylin in his latest effort to help his friends., Theand the queen decides that Matt would be perfect as her new boy toy. When he tries to get help from the awesomely powerful sorceress he's here to assist, she ''laughs and mocks him''., Mostlymostly because she misread the situation,: she thought Mat was simply griping about his lover, and when she does find out how far Tylin is pushing Mat she regrets her mockery and tries to console him. However, this all happens rather briskly, since they're about to go hunting after an important [[MacGuffin]] and end up separated afterwards.
** In the same book, this is implied to have happened to Lan as well with a bit of mind raped mixed in. At least in this case, another character points out that the rapist ought to be punished.; Egwene decides to blackmail her instead. Rape of the minor villain Galina by another woman with some rather sadist tendencies is presented as karmic justice.
* The ''War World'' series has a female Havenite rape a [[Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke|genetically-enhanced]] Sauron at gunpoint in order to get pregnant with his "superior" child. She later frees him and his [[Ax Crazy]] [[Cold Sniper]] cellmate from a prison camp, and again forces them to impregnate her as the first time didn't take.
* In the ''[[Red Dwarf (novel)|Red Dwarf]]'' novel ''Last Human'', Lister is forced to marry a hideously ugly Gelf (Genetically Engineered Life Form). The situation is played mostly for laughs, but his emotions during the sex are touched on in a curiously realistic way.
 
=== [[Live Action TV]] ===
* ''[[Porterhouse Blue]]'': The rape of a college's only research graduate male student by his middle-aged bedder is graphically portrayed, but we never learn how it would have affected him because [[Death by Sex|moments after the act starts they both die in a heating gas explosion]].
* ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'' Episode #610, ''The Violent Years'' features a scene where a young man is sexually assaulted by a group of four attractive high school girls. While William Morgan, the director of the movie (and [[Ed Wood (creator)|Ed Wood]], its writer) attempt (and, arguably, fail) to play the scene dead straight as a horrific and traumatizing crime, Mike and the 'bots have the typical male "What a lucky guy" reaction to these events, because the scene ended up being pure [[Narm]].
Line 392 ⟶ 394:
=== [[Web Comics]] ===
* May have happened to the titular character of ''[[Dominic Deegan]]: Oracle for Hire'' on his first date with Rachel Hart, a literal amazon who likes to break things with her face. How they hooked up to begin with is never mentioned, but since this incident involved [https://web.archive.org/web/20140620004633/http://www.dominic-deegan.com/view.php?date=2005-07-22 kitty-ears and a bell], even Dominic's ladyfriend, Luna, is inclined to agree that it's pretty funny. Dominic himself seems to recall it more with rueful embarrassment than with horror, as well. This attracted some controversy, but quickly took a back seat to what [[Victim Falls For Rapist|followed]].
* The protagonist of ''[[Something*Positive]]'', Davan, was [https://web.archive.org/web/20140117230626/http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp01282003.shtml raped while in a drugged state] by Kim. Though played for laughs, Kim is later shown accompanying Davan to a rape survivors' support group. The topic was also handled more maturely: When the subject of male rape is brought up, Davan recognizes that some men wouldn't be bothered by unsolicited sex, but they would have every right to be, as opposed to most proponents of male rape who say men would not and cannot be disturbed by a woman raping them. Kim also goes through therapy for issues, having apparently done it in the past to other men.
** Davan's rejection letters for bad plays in cartoon form: "Cap'n Hoot-Hoot says a better title for your play would be 'Rape-Rape: A Tale of Rapening'. Also, your next play should have a little less rape in it."
* In ''[[Girls with Slingshots]]'', Candy attempts to rape Chris; this is [http://www.girlswithslingshots.com/comic/gws268/ played partly for laughs], though the character is portrayed as having done something at the very least tasteless.
Line 449 ⟶ 451:
* Reika from ''[[Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun]]'' might be a huge pervert with a love of watching gay men but she herself is straight with a giant crush on Shungo. Unfortunately, his sister Ryoko does not believe her and regularly molests her despite Reika's protests.
* Makoto from ''[[Chocotto Sister]]'' already walks on thin ice with her groping of Chitose's breasts, but she really crosses the line when she forcefully removes Yurika's dress.
* In ''[[Cosplay Complex]]'', lesbian [[Lolicon|pedophile]] Jenny tries to sneak into the bed of the [[Token Mini-MoeLoli]] Athena to sleep with her. However she ended up in the bed of Chako's [[Hot Mom]] Sachiko who says that she is a lonely widow that is glad to have some company in bed. She then rapes the now reluctant teenager.
** Another episode had a near miss as Ranko the head of a rival cosplay club and the defending champion cornered Reika in a storage room and began to molest her.
* Sousou from ''[[Koihime Musou]]'' has the habit of forcing girls into sex with her. She is shown succeeding on at least one occasion—and then there are her efforts to get into [[Chaste Hero|Kannu]]'s pants.
Line 461 ⟶ 463:
 
=== [[Fan Works]] ===
* ''[[Touhou]]'' fandom has something of an obsession with this trope. Ranging from the cheery [[Fan Vid]] ''[httphttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1UbZU8d90E TouhouInnocent Sweets!Key - [[The Cruel Sisters and the Suffering Maid]]]'' about cosplay and [[This and That]] ([[Ear Worm|very addictive]]), to the constant portrayals of Yuuka as a rape machine, it is clear that Gensoukyou can be a scary place for those that aren't careful.
** In the fangame ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20101201092108/http://www.gamesforwork.com/games/play-4825-Ri_Mappy-Flash_Game.html MARIPPY]'', a ''[[Mappy]]'' clone, Alice cartoonishly molests Marisa after a game over.
 
Line 485 ⟶ 487:
* As number fourteen [http://danarchy.youfailit.net/Spiderman/ this] ''[[Spider-Man]] [[Remix Comic]]'' shows, rape may not be funny, but the concept of "rape dollars" is.
* [http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/3672/yonofui027pf4.jpg This other strip] by [[Quino]], although it's not the (attempted) rape per-se the one that's been [[Played for Laughs]].
* Much of the humor in ''[[Playboy]]'' magazine's ''Little Annie Fanny'' was this. Anne (an X-rated caricature of ''[[Little Orphan Annie]]'' and likely [[Marilyn Monroe]]) was portrayed as eternally-innocent and completely oblivious to the men trying to take advantage of her.
 
=== [[Film]] ===
Line 521 ⟶ 524:
* The novel ''Money'' by Martin Amis features a scene where the main character tries to rape his gold digging girlfriend but is so drunk and unenthusiastic he gives up, just before a [[Groin Attack|kick to the nuts]] floors him.
* The comedy book ''Curious Pleasures'' (a glossary of unusual fetishes, ostensibly written by a Victorian scientist) mentions a lady who told her maid to find a man to pretend to break into her house and rape her. Shortly afterwards, she found a man breaking into her house, and happily allowed him to have his way. The next day, the maid told her that she hadn't been able to find a suitable participant yet, and the guy had been a real burglar, ''"although it should be noted that her complaints commenced only after this discovery."''
* In ''[[Discworld/Interesting Times|Interesting Times]]'':
{{quote|'''Cohen:''' I've got to go and have a talk with Old Vincent. Not that there's anything wrong with him, at all. It's just that his memory's bad. We had a bit of trouble on the way over. I keep telling him, it's rape the women and set fire to the houses.
'''Rincewind:''' Rape? That's not very—
Line 545 ⟶ 548:
* Mr G., the over-excited drama teacher in ''[[Summer Heights High]]'' performs improv with his class, and starts off with: "Help, grandma's just been raped!"
* ''[[Jam]]'' has [[Dead Baby Comedy|at least]] two. One sketch features a couple arguing about what seems to have been an affair on the part of the husband. The wife is relieved when he reveals that he wasn't having an affair with the woman—he was raping her. Then there's the "sex for houses" sketch, wherein a couple trying to buy a house agree to have sex with the seller 12 times in exchange for lowering the price. But when a new offer causes the seller to add more sessions to the arrangement, the couple ultimately decide to let him use the husband's mentally challenged sister in their place.
* Although most examples of this series are in the Female on Male category, ''[[Married... with Children|Married With Children]]'' managed to include a Male on Female example as well - in an episode where Al grills burgers, the prospect of such a manly activity (grilling, finally eating meat) made him so horny he grabbed Peggy against her will a couple of times and dragged her off-screen to rape her. Like the [[Gender FlippedFlip]]ped version, this is played as just as much laughs.
* A flashback on ''[[Scrubs]]'' explaining why Dr Cox and Jordan don't go on couple dates any more shows Creepy Swinger Doctor and his wife slipping them both roofies, and announcing "It's party time!" when they're unconscious.
{{quote|'''Jordan''': I think we should give them another chance.}}
Line 651 ⟶ 654:
* ''[[Alice's Restaurant (music)|Alice's Restaurant]]'':
{{quote|Group W's where they put you if you may not be moral enough to join the army after committing your special crime, and there was all kinds of mean nasty ugly looking people on the bench there. Mother rapers. Father stabbers. Father rapers! Father rapers sitting right there on the bench next to me!}}
