Line 121:
* In the Judith Krantz novel ''Scruples 2'', Zach is asleep and wakes up to find Pandora having sex on top of him. Then Gigi, the girl Zach actually likes walks in... Later Zach explains the situation to Gigi's stepmother, who believes him, but admits it'd be a stretch to explain.
* The version with the character waking up with the wrong woman sort of happens in one of the ''[[Flashman]]'' books, because the villain uses this trope to coerce the title character into doing his bidding; by having the woman cry rape and having the authority to get Flashman off.
* In ''[[The World According to Garp]],'' the title character is conceived when his mother, Jenny, rapes a wounded, dying man in her care--an act made creepier because the man was mentally devolving into an infantile state and [[Freud Was Right|seemed to regard Jenny as a mother figure]]. While male-on-female rape is a constant theme in the remainder of the book, Jenny's female-on-male rape is presented (by the other characters, if not necessarily the author) as a revolutionary act, and is never referred to as rape.
** In [[The Film of the Book]], however, someone calls it out as rape.
* Forms the primary plot motivator in the novel and later film ''[[Disclosure]]''. An employee eventually storms away from his former lover and current [[Straw Feminist]] boss after she starts giving him fellatio. As revenge, she sues *him* for sexual harassment and the inherent [[Double Standard]] of this trope is what really vexes the male main character. Fortunately, the employee, with anonymous email tips, manages to find a sexual harassment attorney who specializes in dealing with men as victims. With her help and a helpful audio recording where the employee is heard refusing the woman's advances at least fifty times, he is fully vindicated. It's only after he finds out that the ''company president'' has succumbed to the woman's wiles that [[It Got Worse|things get worse for him]].
Line 140:
* In ''A Working of Stars'' by Debra Doyle and D. James Macdonald, a {{spoiler|spy, Iulan Vai}} takes advantage of a convalescing Arekhon's semi-consciousness to have sex with him even though his semi-conscious state means he cannot truly consent. Arekhon believes she is his lover, Elaeli. Even more creepy--this act becomes the start of a relationship.
* In the [[Riftwar]] series, while on the Dasati homeworld, {{spoiler|rebel leader Naureen, who's sheltering hero Pug and co, conscripts Pug's son Magnus as her boy toy. Magnus clearly isn't okay with this, but neither Pug nor Magnus really objects, and the whole thing is treated as not a big deal.}} The incident isn't mentioned again.
