* Ryuji and Taiga from ''[[Toradora!]]'' have aspects of this in personality, but it contrasts with their appearance. Taiga is [[Shorttank|small]] ("looks like a doll") but has a brash, loud and angry personality. Ryuji has the [[Face of a Thug]] but is generally quiet and enjoys housework (especially cleaning but also cooking).
* Revy and Rock from ''[[Black Lagoon]]''. Rock isn't exactly girly, but he's the one [[Non-Action Guy|Non Action Character]] of either gender to survive and not start killing people. [[Dark Action Girl|Re]][[The Ladette|vy]], meanwhile...
* Sora and Yukari from ''[[Family Compo]]'' are a married [[TranssexualTranssexualism]] couple. [http://www.onemanga.com/Family_Compo/4/10/ Here] is what they look like the one time they dress accordingly to their birth gender.
* [[Official Couple|Chrono and Rosette]] in ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'' have elements of this. Chrono is implied in both versions to be better with housework (in the manga he's shown ''in an apron'' at one point, and in the anime the Elder says he does the cooking and cleaning for him), and is much more meek and gentle (although has an extreme [[Berserk Button]], often putting him into an [[Unstoppable Rage]]), while Rosette is loud, brash, swears constantly and was a [[Lethal Chef]] as a child. They both have their moments where they act more stereotypically like their genders (Chrono is very protective of Rosette, and Rosette is very fond of pretty dresses), but they still don't fit neatly into gender roles.
* The Pokémon adaptations enjoy making at least one pairing like this. The ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]'' anime has the aggressive [[Fiery Redhead]] Jessie and the [[Camp Straight]] James of Team Rocket, while ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' has the [[Camp Straight]] Ruby and the aggressive [[Tomboy]] Sapphire.
Line 186:
** From the Witch Hunt DLC of Dragon Age are Finn and Ariane. Finn is a rather foppish mage that despises the outdoors, while Ariane is an experienced Dalish hunter. Just listen to their dialogue [http://youtu.be/iLNupQi8crQ\]
* Aveline and Donnec in ''[[Dragon Age 2]]''. He is still a capable member of the city guard, but compared to Aveline, pretty much everyone is soft spoken and sensitive.
* Meryl and {{spoiler|Johnny}} in ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots]]''. {{spoiler|When he proposed to her, she declines. Because she wanted to do that and proposes to him half a minute later.}}
** Meryl and her partner Dave in ''[[Policenauts]]'' also qualify.
* ''[[Persona 4]]'' has Kanji Tatsumi (master tailor) and {{spoiler|Naoto Shirogane}} ([[Bokukko]] and {{spoiler|[[Sweet Polly Oliver]]}}) The fact that the first has a crush on the 2nd both before and ''after'' the reveal makes his [[Ambiguously Gay]] natures [[Internet Backdraft|much worse, or better, or whatever.]]
