* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgfzdgWgEZ4 This Chocolate flavored Axe (Lynx in the UK) ad] is on the [[Nightmare Fuel]] page for a reason. It's [[Played for Laughs]], sure, and the chocolate guy [[Victim Falls For Rapist|seems to like it]], but can you imagine an ad showing a woman getting literal bites taken out of her, possibly against her will, by strangers on the street ''ever'' being passed for broadcast? [[Double Standard|Thought not]].

* Played straight by [[Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty]] and its fans: Otacon is screwed up and self-loathing enough to view being sexually assaulted as a minor by his step-mother (a woman in a position of authority over him) as 'being seduced' or 'a relationship', the fans have no such excuse.

* While never getting to the level of rape, certainly, in ''Final Fantasy VII: Remake'', Jessie very overtly and very heavily pursues Cloud. Cloud is clearly uncomfortable with this, being fairly awkward socially and not sure of his relationship with Tifa at the time, and repeatedly tries to avoid her and indicate his discomfort of her only for her to do things like contrive to get him to drive her to the upper plate on a motorcycle so she can snuggle up against his back the entire time. Josue Pereira of ''[[Nerf Now]]'' pointed out that the only reason this is likely considered both acceptable and funny is because Jessie is a '''cute''' girl... even changing her to be unattractive would completely alter the entire dynamic of her refusing to give Cloud any space, let alone if it was Jessop going full court press on Claudia Strife.
