* In ''[[Otomen]]'', the main character Asuka secretly loves knitting, embroidery, cute things, cooking and girls' manga. It's a secret, because Asuka's a guy, and his mother constantly warns him he must be ''manly'', lest he ends up like his father who decided he wanted to be a woman and consequently left Asuka's mother.
* ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'': A flashback reveals that Gozaburo asked his adopted Kaiba what he would do if he was in charge of Kaiba Corp. Kaiba says that he wants to make Kaibaland (which is very much like Disneyland) for kids to enjoy. However, Gozaburo is an [[Arms Dealer]], so he is completely unable to comprehend such a thing. So he decided to take away Kaiba's toys. Considering that Gozaburo was very abusive towards Seto Kaiba at least, this would indicate that he simply wanted to keep Seto under his thumb.
* Hiroko's father in ''[[AKB49: Ren'ai Kinshi Jourei|AKB 49 Renai Kinshi Jourei]]'' strongly disapproves of her aspiration to become an [[Idol Singer]], which led to a heated confrontation between him and her when he found out that she had joined an idol group.
* [[Ranma Half½|Genma Saotome]] often gets this in [[Fanfic]]; it's a [[Alternative Character Interpretation|logical extension]] of the character's canon attitudes. Most often used in [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstructive]]/more realistic versions so that Ranma has a credible reason to break away from martial arts and try to do something else with his/[[Alternative Character Interpretation|her]] life, because supposedly he'd been bullied into his martial arts excellence unwillingly by Genma.
