Whenever a guy happens to [[
▲Whenever a guy happens to [[Cross Dresser|need girls' clothes]] for [[Gender Bender|some reason]], the girls around him suddenly get a [[Psychotic Smirk]]... oh boy. This activity is always portrayed as more fun for the girls than for the boy; girls in fiction just relish the opportunity to play with the victim like a doll and often revel in his discomfort. In most cases, this is all [[Played for Laughs]], sometimes accompanied by a [[Gilligan Cut]].
Sometimes, the guy being dressed up may have [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|feminine attributes]] and other characters [[Unsettling Gender Reveal|mistake them]] for being a [[Attractive Bent Gender|pretty girl]], possibly falling in [[Love At First Sight]]. If this happens, the guy will [[Ho Yay|play along]] because he's too embarrassed to reveal his true identity.
This is often the traditional punishment for a teenage boy caught spying on a girls having a [[Slumber Party]].
Subtrope of [[Disguised in Drag]]. Often combined with [[Instant Cosplay Surprise]]. Contrast [[Wholesome Crossdresser]], a guy who's totally into doing this thing and probably doesn't need a girl's input. May overlap with [[Becoming the Costume]].
{{examples
▲== Anime & Manga ==
* In ''[[
▲* ''[[To Love Ru (Manga)|To Love Ru]]'' has this when Rito gets turned into a girl.
▲* In ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' (pictured) this is a [[Running Gag]] for poor [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Hayate]]. Nagi and Maria do this to him just for fun, and he has even been ''cursed'' into wearing only girls clothes. Some characters even think he is an actual crossdresser because of this.
** This ends up crossing with [[I Think You Broke Him]] when Nagi suggests he change out of Ayumu's clothes, and he refuses. In actuality, he just doesn't want to [[Dropped a Bridget On Him|reveal to Luca]] that he's actually a guy.
** And, as of chapter 319, he's actively seeking to get clothes to crossdress into. Dragged Into Drag no longer.
* [[Black Butler]]: Done in especially disturbing fashion, as the boy in question is ten years old at most, and the scene opens such that it looks like he's being raped. Here, see for yourself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZZtlmAGDZE
* ''[[
* Yuna and Kakizaki in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' did this to Negi as a prop/attraction to their haunted house (which became far less haunted).
* Katsuki from ''[[Clannad (
* ''[[Mahoraba]]'': Shiratori gets this done to him while he's asleep, in the manga just for such a light-weight drinker, in the anime for having an apparently dirty dream about Kozue.
* ''[[
* Twice in ''[[Midori no Hibi]]'':
** First, when there's a pervert on subway trains cutting girls' skirts, Ayase has Seiji dress in drag in order to catch the suspect.
** A running gag in the relationship between Kota and Miku is that Miku and her gang love to constantly dress Kota in drag, since (according to them) he "looks cute" in it. {{spoiler|Toward the end of the manga, Kota later asks Miku and her gang to drag him up again, this time in a gambit to persuade Midori to return to her original body.}}
* ''[[Minami-ke]]'': Makoto originally, but he eventually turns into a [[Wholesome Crossdresser]] when he realizes there are upsides to it, too...
* ''[[
* In ''[[Sasameki Koto]]'', Akemiya initially crossdresses by choice, but is later forced to dress as a girl to be used as, well, uh, lesbian bait.
* In ''[[
* When Sanji in ''[[
** Also happened a bit to Luffy on Amazon Lily. The amazons made copies of his original clothing for him, but also added a bunch of pink frills to make him look cute. Luffy was not pleased.
*** Arguable, considering it was completely unintentional. The amazon that made the clothes seemed genuinely surprised when Luffy told her he didn't want frills on his clothes, and she removed them without any real argument when asked.
* Gintoki and Katsura were forced to crossdress and work at a crossdressing bar in an episode of ''[[
* This is more or less the point of ''[[Family Compo]]''.

* In ''[[Scrapped Princess]]'', Pacifica and Winia are happy to dress up Leopold and Fully in drag to sneak past soldiers.
* Pretty much the entire premise of ''[[Princess Princess]]''. Though instead of being dressed up by girls it's the [[Absurdly Powerful Student Council]] and ''school faculty'' who are behind it. [[It Makes Sense in Context]]. Sort of.
* Done in the second season of [[Darker
* Sort of suberverted in ''[[Shugo Chara]]'', where [[Fiery Redhead|Kukai]] and [[Princely Young Man|Tadase]] are forced to wear skirts by [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|Nagihiko]] because Kukai asked what it feels like to wear a skirt.
* Early on in Season 2 of ''[[Baka to Test

▲* It was done in at least one episode of ''[[Gilligans Island (TV)|Gilligans Island]]''.
* Two episodes of ''[[Small Wonder]]'' had Jamie dressed as Vicki.
* One episode of ''[[Boy Meets World]]'' had this as Cory and later Shawn dressed up as girls for a report on the female gender.
* ''[[
* In an episode of ''[[3rd Rock
* In the third-season ''[[Modern Family]]'' episode "Me? Jealous?", Alex and Haley decide to make up after [[The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry|one of their frequent fights]] by dressing up Luke as a girl, something they haven't done in a long time.

** The remake, with far more detail to the story, makes it clear this was part of the plan that Cloud didn't know about until the last minute, and he's dressed up this way ''in front of an audience'' after a dance routine at a burlesque show. Exactly how much of a part Aerith had in thinking this up isn't said, but she does seem to enjoy watching it ''far'' more than she should.
▲* ''[[Final Fantasy VII (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VII]]'': At the Wall Market, Aeris seems rather enthusiastic about the idea of doing this to Cloud.
* Happens to Yuri and Ian in ''[[Infinite Space]]'', with the dialogue suggesting they lost some sort of bet to Nia, and this leads to Ian being kidnapped alongside the barmaid of the place where they slept at. There's a [[Near

* An extremely common trope in transgender fiction, as seen on sites like [http://www.fictionmania.tv/ FictionMania]. In TG fiction, the trope is less likely to be [[Played for Laughs]], instead often leading to a revelation of [[Attractive Bent Gender]] and representing a first step on a journey of self-discovery (which may be figurative and/or [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman|literal]].) Alternatively, the trope is sometimes given a more sinister spin, as a prelude to sexual domination and/or the protagonist becoming a [[Sex Slave]].▼

▲* ''[[Ozy and Millie (Webcomic)|Ozy and Millie]]'': Millie seems to have too much fun doing this to Ozy on occasion.
▲* ''[[El Goonish Shive (Webcomic)|El Goonish Shive]]'' has a whole arc on The Birthday Party that involved splitting invited people into pairs to choose clothes for each other and {{spoiler|switching everyone's sex (except one character) using an [[Imported Alien Phlebotinum|alien]] "[[Transformation Ray|morphing device]]"}}, so that all the characters were cross-dressed into whatever their partners wanted. It's not as bad as it sounds, but surely as crazy.
▲* ''[[Double K (Webcomic)|Double K]]'' has [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Kamina]] forcing Simon into the role of the [[Dirty Harriet]] to bust solicitors. He's done this more times than he really should, according to [[Da Chief|Lord Genome]].

* In the "Just Desserts" episode of ''[[The Little Rascals]]'', Darla fell ill just before the big baking contest, so Alfalfa had to dress like a girl and take Darla's place.
* In [[Looney Tunes|"Banty Raids"]], [[Foghorn Leghorn]] is [[Bound and Gagged|bound and beak-tied]] and forcibly dressed in drag by a machine, then married to a horny bantam rooster.
* [[The Lion King|"What do you want me to do, dress in drag and do the hula?"]]
* In [[Kaeloo]], Stumpy is often shunted into female roles when playing pretend, whereas the others [[The Smurfette Principle|all play as males]]. He even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] the fact that Kaeloo is an actual female (or at least the [[Hermaphrodite|closest thing present]]) and that it would make more sense for her to play such roles.
* In the ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short "The Big Snooze", Elmer Fudd gets tired of hunting Bugs Bunny and failing, so he tears up his Warner Bros. cartoon contract and goes fishing. Bugs is dead-set on getting Elmer back as a foe, so he invades his dreams and gives him a bizarre nightmare where he dresses Fudd like a woman. And then it gets even ''weirder''...
* In an episode of ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]'', this happens to Mojo Jojo after he is "invited" to the Girls' slumber party, after his attempt at [[Delivery Guy Infiltration]] fails.

* [[Robert Pattinson]] used to be put in drag a lot by his older sisters. He grew out of it eventually.
* There is such a thing as a "forced feminization" fetish.
