** Kyon seems to ignore every aspect of Haruhi's fanservice-oriented outfits except for how socially disruptive they are to everyone else. "Seems" being the operative word, as he is a notoriously [[Unreliable Narrator]].
** It's also possible that her troublesome behavior and attitude simply override any sexual appeal he (consciously) feels for her at this point.
* During [[Improbable Weapon User|Mousse]]'s introductory story in ''[[Ranma One Half½]]'', Ranma, who is stuck in female form, tried to pass off her girl body as an elaborate disguise meant to humiliate the Chinese martial artist -- going as far as to equate his [[Hyperspace Arsenal|Hidden Weapons]] style as magic tricks and dressing up as a [[Playboy Bunny]] magician's assistant. Mousse was so enraged that he [[Clothing Damage|systematically destroyed Ranma's (already scant) clothing]], leaving her wearing nothing but shoes and a few centimeters of fabric on her crotch and derriere. The Fûrinkan audience [[Fan Service|was crying tears of joy]], but Mousse remained fully focused on tearing the remains of the "disguise" to pieces. (It doesn't hurt that while Mousse is [[Blind Without'Em]], he's almost blind even ''with'' his glasses on.)
** Subverted in the manga, when Ranma converts one of his unisex outfits into a bikini, so that guys will want to take him out on a date and buy him lunch. When this doesn't work, he's horrified, thinking that he's no longer appealing to men. But as it turns out, there just aren't any men on the beach, because the owner of the island forbade any males to be there.
* [[Dungeonmaster's Girlfriend]] Kasukabe from ''[[Genshiken]]'' puts on her shortest skirt, her tightest shirt and starts draping herself around [[Cloudcuckoolander]] Kousaka while talking to him in the sexiest way possible. His answer? "Thanks, but I'm going to line up for [[Serious Business|a videogame release]] in Akihabara."
