As long as I am doing you, I don't mind doing time.''|'''[[The Bob and Tom Show|Bob and Tom]]''', "Prison Bitch"}}
The idea that rape is common in prison. It is used in a number of ways:
* A device for scary violence and [[Revenge]] scenes in stories with [[Prison]] settings.
Line 26:
== Anime & Manga ==
* Occurs frequently in the yaoi manga ''[[Manga/Under Grand Hotel|Under Grand Hotel]]'' usually to [[The Woobie|poor]] [[Butt Monkey|Sen]].
* In ''[[Rainbow Nisha Rokubou no Shichinin]]'', the prison doctor Sasaki is a [[Complete Monster]] that engages in this quite often, and will even scheme with the warden to kill off anyone who manages to find out.
* In the latest arc of ''[[Black Lagoon]]'', after Janet Bhai (a.k.a. Greenback Jane from the earlier [[Carnival of Killers]] arc from the manga) suggests she might make a pass on Rock if Revy didn't care for her always banging Benny's brains out, Revy's reaction is not to make a death threat as would be expected of someone hitting Revy's [[Berserk Button]] about Rock in general, but to say [http://www.mangareader.net/700-52484-6/black-lagoon/chapter-81.html this], which sheds some rather unsettling light on Revy's prison experience and makes for a really creepy scene, as Revy here is basically threatening to {{spoiler|''make Jane her bitch''}}. Revy, you're ''really'' starting to scare me now...
* ''[[Infinite Ryvius]]'': Implied when Criff and Michelle are imprisoned after the coup in episode 16. While nothing explicit is shown, there are a few lines of suggestive dialogue and it is seen that Michelle is shackled up with her legs spread.
Line 73:
** ''Hee~eey.''
* At ''[[Alvan an The Chipmunks 3 The Second Squeakuel]]'', villain Ian Hawk ([[Sexual Karma|who raped and tortured one of the Chipettes earlier in the story]]) ends up in prison and meets his cellmate: [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Big Bubba]], who asks him if he wants to be "the husband or the wife". Ian ends up spending the rest of his life as "Big Bubba's Bitch"... until ''[[Modurn Warfare 3: The Dead Rise|Modurn Warfare 3 The Dead Rise]]'', where Big Bubba decapitates and [[No Party Like a Donner Party|eats him]] after a [[Zombie Apocalypse]].
* In ''[[All You Need Is Love]]'' it is [[Noodle Incident|frequently implied]] [[Black Comedy Rape|that L did this to Light during his incarceration.]]
Line 135:
{{quote|'''Handsome Bob:''' It's fine, it's fine. Five years, you know, I don't know if I can handle it.
'''One Two:''' I don't know what I was thinking, Bob. I mean, there's nothing wrong with being a poof or being a gay, or whatever it is you call it, I don't know. I mean, there's gonna be plenty of your lot in there. You'll probably love it. }}
* In the 2003 movie ''[[In Hell]]'', minor character Billy gets subjected to this every night as soon as he arrives at the prison. It's definitely NOT played for laughs, and in fact the first time it happens it's pure [[Nightmare Fuel]].
* ''The Experiment''. But come on, [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?|you could]] [[Transparent Closet|tell]].
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mfXGemJryo#t=0m17s Implied] in ''[[Strange Brew]]''
{{quote|'''Doug''': Those big cons are gonna love you, eh?
'''Bob''': What do you mean?
Line 209:
** An earlier episode of ''SVU'', "Taken", had a man raped and killed in prison after he was falsely accused of raping a 17 year old girl by a family of con artists. To make matters worse Cragen had made a joke about it earlier in the episode saying that "if there is any karma, Ramsay won't be doing much sitting down in Riker's." Hearing the guy plead to [[John Munch]] earlier in the episode was heartbreaking, and at the end, he seemed to be the only one in the cast to consider the possibility the guy was innocent until the con artist contested that he was just a patsy.
** While not actually a prison, a minor was raped while in a mental health facility when his defense convinced the court that his rape of his teacher was caused by some sort of faulty brain set up. The kid's rapist then excused himself of the crime by claiming to have the exact same thing. Unlike most cases, however, something was actually done about it, though it was most likely due to the fact that the kid was still legally a minor.
** There was one episode of ''SVU'' where they had a teen suspect. Currently in the precinct's holding cell was a man arrested for molesting boys who was only too happy to play along with Stabler when he threatened the boy with leaving the two of them alone together, even though they would have been in full view of other officers.
* ''[[General Hospital]]'' once had young Micheal Corinthos reveal he was raped when he was in prison temporarily. The show treated it very seriously in a similar manner to the way it previously handled the traumatic rape of female characters like Liz Webber. The storyline was lauded by several critics as powerful particularly since Micheal was a [[Tangled Family Tree|legacy]] [[Big Screwed-Up Family|character]] the shows fans had watched grow up.
* ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'' only alluded to it in "Folsom Prison Blues" -- Dean gets a taunt when they arrive, he makes a joke and acts like it was directed at Sam.
Line 273:
* On the [[Frank Zappa]] album ''Joe's Garage'', the protagonist Joe is "plooked" in prison during the song "Keep it Greasey." "Dong Work for Yuda," the preceding song, sings of Joe's rapist's [[Bigger Is Better in Bed|generous gifts in the genitals department]], just so the audience knows how awful Joe's going to have it.
* The [[Tool]] song "Prison Sex" is a subversion. You'd think the subject is about this, given the title, but [[Word of God]] is it's about child abuse (more specifically how being abused as a child makes the viewpoint character take it out on someone else in turn) and the "prison" is metaphorical.
* Used as a throwaway joke in one of the [[Gorillaz]] interviews, as they discuss [[Jerkass|Murdoc's]] jail time in Mexico.
{{quote|'''Murdoc:''' "Ugh, prison food. I don't think I'll eat another burrito the rest of my life."
'''2D''': "Yeah, but you had your share of [[Double Entendre|Mexican sausage]], eh Muds?"<br />
Line 319:
* ''[[Enzai]]'', the [[OVA]], features a disturbing amount of examples of this trope. Made worse by the fact that the main character is underage and has been sent to jail on the account of a crime he did not commit.
** The visual novel it's based upon makes the OVA look like a children's show.
* [[Near-Rape Experience|Almost occurs]] in ''[[Skies of Arcadia]]'' during Vyse's second entry (i.e imprisonment) in the [[Stone Wall|Grand Fortress]]; Aika is harassed and about to be raped by the admiral [[The Casanova|Vigoro]]; thankfully Vyse and Gilder show up in time. The implications of rape were removed in the English localization of the game.
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'' protagonist Niko Bellic mentions during a conversation that while he did spend time in Eastern European prisons, the whole prison bitch thing is a specifically American feature of incarcerated life. Which... probably isn't entirely accurate, at least not in Russia. In fact, it might very well be universal, as it's pretty much Older Than anything you care to name.
** Well, Russian cops (neither German, nor British...really anyone but Americans) don't generally mention to suspects casually that they will be, de facto, ''[[Moral Event Horizon|sold as sex slaves]]''.
Line 344:
* After you rescue Oleg in ''[[Saints Row: The Third|Saints Row the Third]]'', Pierce comments that the last time a giant naked man offered to help him, it didn't end well.
** Earlier on when Shaundi asks "Are you trying to get us all jail time?" To which Josh Birk freaks out citing "I don't wanna be somebody's bitch!"
** A more subtle one in ''[[Saints Row 2]]'', where one of the whiteboards for in the prison guard's staff room says "Don't drop the soap."
* In ''[[Alice: Madness Returns]]'', Alice threatens Bumby with this: "In prison, some half-wit bruiser will make you his sweetheart!"
* Pretty much the point of visual novel ''Toriko Hime'' (Prison Princess), where the main (female) characters are arrested for completely made up crimes and sentenced to serving as sex slaves for the male prisoners.
Line 356:
* Kevin Lee of ''[[Sexy Losers]]'' in [http://www.sexylosers.com/138.html this strip.] He is very gay and also a bit of a masochist so the other prisoners decide not to rape him after all.
* Karishma in a female example in [http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp12052006.shtml this] ''[[Something Positive]]''. It's only implied, and that vaguely, but many still rejoiced in seeing her punished in any way.
* ''[[8-Bit Theater
* ''[[Questionable Content]]'': Marten is [http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1187 too pretty to go to prison.]
* In a [[VG Cats]] [http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=117 strip] we have the creators of ''[[Katamari Damacy]]'' going on trial because it is assumed that they were partaking in the [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|use of illegal substances while making the game]]. Leo, the judge, is playing his game in excitement before realizing that the term 'roll a Katamari' can sound a ''lot'' like a slang term for doing drugs, which leads to this dialogue:
Line 362:
'''The Prince:''' So can I go home now?
'''Leo:''' No, no, no. It's soap on a rope for you. }}
*In ''[[The Order of the Stick]]'', Thog states he's "too pretty for jail." Also the gem, "nale tell thog, don't drop soap."
* In ''[[Least I Could Do]]'' it was a running gag [http://leasticoulddo.com/comic/20030404 here],[http://leasticoulddo.com/comic/20030407 here], and [http://leasticoulddo.com/comic/20030409 here]
* Played for laughs in [http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20050410&mode=classic this] ''[[User Friendly]]'' strip.
Line 396:
*** In the [[Affectionate Parody|homage episode]] of [[Stephen King]]; in which appeared three Stephen King's stories acted by the characters.
*** And in a cutaway gag parodying ''[[The Shawshank Redemption]]'' with Monopoly Man.
** Another gag had [[Mr. Magoo]] note he can't go to prison because they'll rape him and he won't see it coming.
* One odd variation is the occasional suggestion that a homosexual character would enjoy prison for this reason. For example, on one episode of ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'', there is a comment about Smithers "taking quickly" to a Turkish prison, and at the end of the remake of ''The In-Laws'', one of the heroes comments that the flamboyant villain is going to "love" prison.
** Another borderline example occurs when Marge goes to jail and Homer visits her on conjugal visit day. Homer is being very gentle and considerate, ready to do whatever will help Marge cope with being in jail. Her only response is to jump on him, knocking the trailer they're in onto its side. Then again, this may be a subversion, since Homer was probably happy to oblige...
Line 408:
* Despite its setting and [[Cast Full of Gay]], ''[[Superjail]]'' doesn't invoke this as often as you'd think it would. In fact, two gay inmates are among the few recurring prisoners - and their sex is nothing if not consensual. However this is an off screen mention by one of them asking, "how do you not watch a shower rape?"
* Not technically [[Prison Rape]], but there is a scene in the episode of ''[[Rocko's Modern Life]]'' where Rocko's red car is impounded...
* This is heavily implied to happen to Fox at the end of "The Terrible Trio" in ''[[Batman: The Animated Series|Batman the Animated Series]]''.
* Implied to have happened to Doctor Rockso in ''[[Metalocalypse]]'': a guard finds him shaking and huddling in his cellmate's sleeping arms.
* Parodied in ''[[The Venture Brothers]]''. The Monarch wakes up in prison to find that he was about to be raped by King Gorilla (an actual gay gorilla). However, King admits he couldn't go through with it; Monarch reminds him too much of a girl. To make the scene even more bizarre, Monarch then realizes that he's not even in his own cell. Apparently King Gorilla has enough pull with the guards to bring his "dates" over to his place.
* In the 90's ''[[Looney Tunes]]'' short Carrotblanca at the end Yosemite Sam is thrown in jail and a dopey looking prisoner suddenly gains a pair of eyelashes and smiles at him in a lustful way and Sam yells for help.
* ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''. When Spongebob tries to get Gary to take a bath he says that the soap is dubloons and tells him not to drop them
* An episode of ''[[Code Monkeys]]'' where the cast (including the girls) gets sent to prison. Source of the page image up there. Though no-one actually gets raped, despite taking bets on who will be violated first.
* [http://robotchicken.wikia.com/wiki/Barney_Love_(Part_3) Frequent] [http://robotchicken.wikia.com/wiki/Prison_Headache topic]] [http://robotchicken.wikia.com/wiki/Can%27t_Be_a_Crime_to_Kick_a_Dope_Rhyme\] on ''[[Robot Chicken]]".
* ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]:'' Defied. A female guard catches Zuko (disguised as a male guard) loitering in the female prisoners' block, seemingly standing watch for a buddy. The female guard silently glances at [[Lady of War|Suki's]] cell before demanding Zuko let her check to see what was going on inside. Of particular note is that, in further defiance of expectations, the rape averse prison is run by ''the [[The Empire|bad guys]]''.
** Of course, if you jump to ''unfortunate conclusions'' from Azula's "favorite prisoner" line (also referring to Suki), ''well''.....Not even the most well-intentioned guards would question their princess.
