{{quote|"Alas, after a series of deadly blunders caused by distracting low-cut fatigues and lots of harmless pinching, the army decided women weren't fit for service. Not when I'm in charge."}}

* Pakku from ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'' held sexist values for most of his life. When he was a teenager, his bigotry caused his fiancée Kanna <ref>Katara's future grandmother</ref> to leave him. After realizing this as an old man, he realizing that his ideas were wrong and starts to see women as equals. (For example, he trains Katara in combat waterbending, even though traditionally, female waterbenders are only allowed to use their powers for healing.) He even meets up with Kanna again, and after she realizes that he's changed, Kanna marries him, making him the grandfather of Sokka and Katara.
** Sokka is a bit sexist for the first few episodes, believing that women should [[Stay in the Kitchen]] and out of the fighting. After getting to know a group of female warriors firsthand and realizing their fighting capabilities, he realizes that his views were incorrect and learns to respect women and girls.
Line 148 ⟶ 149:
* In ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]'', Naveen looks down on Tiana for being a waitress (he initially thought she was a princess, and believes that she tricked him). He also flirts with a number of women when he's fixing to get married, and a deleted line has him saying "I don't take advantage of women. I give them pleasure." He gets over it as the movie progresses, and Tiana teaches him to be less of [[The Hedonist|a hedonist]].
* The title character of ''[[Archer]]'' is likely a worse misogynist than anyone on [[Politically Incorrect Villain| the other list]], and that's only ''one'' of his vices. He truly pushes the limits of "hero" more often than not.
* Downplayed initially with Omi from ''[[Xiaolin Showdown]]'', who was initially openly sexist towards Kimiko. In his defense, his view of women was learned using a sociology textbook written in the 11th Century. After making a bet with Raimundo that she couldn't complete a Showdown (and losing) and thankfully lost that trait.
