This trope applies to [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|any female character who sports a moustache or beard at some point]]. This is almost inevitably [[Played for Laughs]].
 
The most common variant involves a woman wearing [[Paper -Thin Disguise|a fake moustache]], possibly as part of a [[Sweet Polly Oliver]], or temporarily growing one due to some form of [[Applied Phlebotinum]]. Sometimes it may even just be a part of an [[Imagine Spot]]. Permanently moustachioed women are rarer. If they do appear, expect them to be a part of an anachronistic [[Freak Show]] as "The Bearded Lady".
 
If female [[Our Dwarves Are All the Same|dwarves]] appear, they are likely to sport beards similar to those of the males.
{{examples|Examples}}
 
== [[Anime and Manga]] ==
* [[Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei]]: In one chapter a bunch of [[Otaku]] reject normal women for having "subtle facial hair" (also a case of [[Minor Flaw Major Breakup]].)
* In ''[[B Gata H Kei]]'', several characters have ''erogami'' (sex gods) that serve as a manifestation of their sexual desire. They normally appear as the character, but with minor silly additions. The main character, Yamada's erogami is her in a pink kimono and a white moustache.
* In ''[[Ranma One Half½ (Manga)|Ranma One Half]]'', when Akane eats the super soba. This soup is full of male hormones, making facial hair growth a side effect. At least the whiskers drop off once the magic wears off.
* ''[[Dennou Coil]]'': Several characters, including girls, sprout sentient virtual facial hair for an episode.
* In ''[[Bibliotheca Mystica De Dantalian (Light Novel)|Bibliotheca Mystica De Dantalian]]'', Camilla wears a [[Paper -Thin Disguise|top hat and fake moustache]], and then [[Funny Moments|sticks the latter on Dalian]].
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
Line 53:
* One [[Affectionate Parody]] of ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' exaggerated Ace's [[Butch Lesbian]] tendencies by giving her a moustache.
* Frequently used in ''[[Allo Allo (TV)|Allo Allo]]'', whenever the female Resistance fighters and waitresses have to pose as gendarmes, engineers, soldiers and so forth.
* ''[[Thirty30 Rock (TV)|Thirty Rock]]'' - Liz, to get Jenna to own up to her age, promises in return to grow out her moustache, which she has named 'Tom Selleck'.
{{quote| '''Jenna''': How soon can he be here?<br />
'''Liz''': If I do nothing, two days! }}
Line 86:
* In ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'', the "A Time For Hair-Raising" arc starts with Zoe and Gwynn growing beards from a hair-growth spell gone wrong, as seen [http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/080522 here].
* In ''[[Scandinavia and The World]]'', Lady Germany has one.
* ''[[The Whiteboard (Webcomic)|The Whiteboard]]'': [[Only Sane Woman|Sandy]] greets a customer to [[Weirdness Magnet|Doc's shop]], and is told by the customer that he wants to deal with a male employee. She ducks behind the counter, and comes back up with [[Paper -Thin Disguise|a fake moustache]] on her face, asking again if she can help him.
