== [[Subverted Trope]] vs. [[Inverted Trope]] ==
A ''slightly'' more subtle distinction; inverted tropes are sometimes incorrectly described as "subverted". An inverted trope is where the usual setup of the trope is in some way swapped: [[Gender -Inverted Trope|sex-flipped versions]] are quite common, though by no means the only example.
 
A trope can of course be both inverted and subverted, if the viewer or reader is led to expect the straight version only to be given an inversion of some kind, but an inverted trope is not automatically also a subverted one: there needs to be a genuine attempt to suggest that the trope is going to be used straight to qualify as a "subversion".
