Line 127:
* Strangely absent from ''[[I Love You Phillip Morris]]''. While it is vaguely referenced as something that happens to "blond-haired, blue-eyed queers in the yard", sexual acts seem to be largely consensual in the prison. Giving someone a blowjob in exchange for favors seems to be "your choice," and the only sex that is shown is between Steven and Phillip, who are very obviously gay and in love.
* In the wild-west [[Zombie Apocalypse]] film ''[[Undead or Alive]]'', prison rape is threatened by Cletus when he informs Luke and Cletus that they're going to be horse-whipped after being arrested by Sheriff Claypool.
{{quote|'''Cletus''': "They'll leave you hangin' on the rail. You ain't even gonna know who it is comin' up behind you to take a [[Unusual Euphemism|dig at your dirt-mine]]. But don't worry, when it's my turn I'll be sure to whisper somethin' real sweet..."
'''Elmer''' (sighing): "[[Understatement|This day is turning out terrible]]!" }}
* In ''[[Rock N RollaRocknRolla]]'', Handsome Bob has just confessed his romantic feelings towards One Two on the eve of a possible five years in prison.
{{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. }}
Line 234:
* Averting this trope is subtly implied to be why Horatio (''[[CSI: Miami]]'') stopped off at a barbershop on his way to turn in a teenage prisoner, so the youth {{spoiler|(who's his illegitimate son)}} can have his long hair shaved back to an un-girlish crewcut.
* British sketch comedy series ''Swingers'' featured the 'gay men enjoy prison' version, played for laughs: one ongoing storyline features a British man locked up in a foreign country who has obviously been enjoying whatever's been going on with his attractive young Latin cellmate. In fact, he's having so much fun he confesses to the crime he's been falsely accused of and to several ''other'' crimes...which comes back to bite him in the ass, as he learns soon after that his cellmate's violent older brother is being transferred to the same prison and is planning to do unpleasant things to the man who's been 'corrupting' his brother.
* On an episode of ''[[Reno 911!]]'' Deputy Junior tells a very detailed and graphic story to a horrified group of kids visiting the jail about a Mormon kid being brutally gang raped in one of the cells.
* ''[[The IT Crowd]]:''
{{quote|'''Moss:''' I can't go to jail, Roy! They'll rape the flip out of me!}}
Line 272:
* 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?"
'''Murdoc''': "Oh shaddup you little [[Curse Cut Short|fu-]]" }}
* [[Elvis Presley]] and Jailhouse Rock:
Line 319:
* ''[[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]]''.
* ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'' also references this trope in regards to C.J.'s brother Sweet, who gets thrown in prison following {{spoiler|Smoke and Ryder's betrayal}}:
{{quote|'''Carl Johnson:''' [''Toreno is calling C.J. on his cell phone''] Toreno?
'''Mike Toreno:''' Carl, learn to fly.
Line 352:
* In [http://www.ugmadness.net/index.php?date=2004-11-08 this strip] of the ''[[Magic: The Gathering|Magic the Gathering]]'' webcomic ''[[UG Madness]]'', Dominic ends up in jail and his cellmate makes him...play ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh (Tabletop Game)|Yu-Gi-Oh]]''. Which, to the characters of the comic, is probably [[Cool and Unusual Punishment|just as bad as rape]].
* 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|Eight Bit Theater]]'': Played for laughs in [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2003/02/01/episode-244-technical-jargon/ this] episode
* ''[[Questionable Content]]'': Marten is [http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1187 too pretty to go to prison.]
