Line 119:
* In [[Raymond Chandler]]'s novel ''[[The Big Sleep (Literature)|The Big Sleep]]'', a beautiful young lady turns up naked in Philip Marlowe's bed and tries to seduce him. His response is basically [[Please Put Some Clothes On]].
* Likewise with [[Mike Hammer]] in ''The Twisted Thing''. He mentions afterwards that she went about it the wrong way, as he likes to be teased a little.
* Many Jedi in the [[Star Wars Expanded Universe]]. Most notably Corran in ''[[Jedi Academy Trilogy|I, Jedi]]'' -- the [[Big Bad]] tempted him, and he thought about it, but he didn't bite -- and Luke's son Ben in ''[[Legacy of the Force|Invincible]]''. In the prequel era, Anakin, of course, manages to Ignore the Fanservice [[Single
* In the first ''[[Warhammer 40000]] [[Gaunts Ghosts]]'' novel ''First and Only'', Major Rawne and his adjutant are negotiating with some local gangsters for contraband, ignoring a nearby stripping dancer in the process.
** Dunno what the contraband in question was, but if it's food or something like that, some things take priority over nekkid chicks. Food, ammo, medical supplies, things of that kidney.
Line 125:
* In ''[[Shadow of the Lion]]'', Lucretia resents that Eneko and Marco spurned her advances despite magical aphrodisiacs. This is just another reason for her to kill them as painfully as possible.
* In Terry Pratchett's ''[[Discworld (Literature)/Mort|Mort]]'', when the title character knocks on Ysabel's bedroom door, she quickly adjusts the neckline of her nightgown to be a bit more revealing, then invites him in. Mort simply tells her to follow him, since he needs her help looking something up in the library. As he heads out, he adds, "And put something on, you're overflowing."
* In the ''[[
* In ''[[Girl Genius|Agatha H and the Airship City]]'' by Phil and Kaja Foglio, Princess Zulena declares that "There's no male guard on this ship that can resist a beautiful and oh-so-lonely princess." She's wrong; one of two scenes where the princess gets her comeuppance.
* In [[Robert A. Heinlein]]'s ''[[The Number of the Beast]]'', this is how Zeb and Deety clue to the fact that the "park ranger" accosting them is an alien; Deety's abrupt strip tease does not distract him or even engage his interest.
Line 163:
* Parodied in ''[[Yes Dear]]''. Kim tries seducing Greg so she can get pregnant again to no avail. After she leaves Greg pours ice down his pants.
* In a late-episode ''[[Get Smart (TV)|Get Smart]]'', Agent 99 tries to distract a KAOS agent with a sexy come-on, and is stunned when he just walks by. After 86 subdues him and is then worried when he finds he's not an agent, 99 tells him they're safe, as his eyesight wasn't that good.
* Amy attempts to seduce the Doctor at the end of the ''[[
* [[Spartacus Blood and Sand|Spartacus's]] masters, in their various efforts to manipulate or reward him, repeatedly send the slave Mira to spend the night with him, but each time he rejects her, as his heart belongs to his estranged {{spoiler|and later dead}} wife Sura.
* ''[[The Big Bang Theory]]''
** The guys are playing ''Halo'' when Penny walks in with a bunch of friends and says that they want to have sex. The guys don't even seem to hear her and continue playing, to which Penny then tells her friends "Told you so."
** In the second episode of season one, the guys are working on building a TV shelf from Ikea, and Penny mumbles that she'd take off her clothes. Silence ensues as the boys ignore her.
* Happens in ''[[Scrubs]]'', where Jordan tries to seduce a boy from across the hall. He is nice to her, calls her "ma'am", and leaves. In utter [[
* In ''[[Fresh Prince of Bel Air]]'', Phillip was too busy with his work to notice that his wife was wearing nothing but plastic wrap in an attempt to seduce him. Latter averted when he replays the day in his mind, just realized what she was wearing at the time, and goes to ask her to give it another try.
* When Irene Adler, sexy dominatrix extraordinaire, tries to seduce Sherlock Holmes in the BBC's [[Sherlock]], his response is to {{spoiler|check her pulse and look to see if her pupils are dilated, so he'll know if she's actually attracted to him.}}
