* A gem from [[Chris Rock]] that would make an excellent page quote if not for the, ahem... [[N-Word Privileges|controversial]] language;.<note>Chris Rock would later [https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rock-bring-on-oscar-safety-net/ disown the routine] after noticing that it was used as justification by people to continue being racist under the pretense of [[You Are a Credit to Your Race|only targeting the "bad ones".]]</note>
{{quote|''Everything white people don't like about black people, black people really don't like about black people, and there's two sides, there's black people [[Stop Being Stereotypical|and there's niggas]]. [...] You know the worst thing about niggas? Niggas always want credit for some shit they supposed to do. A nigga will brag about some shit a normal man just does. A nigga will say some shit like, "I take care of my kids." You're '''supposed''' to, you dumb motherfucker! What kind of ignorant shit is that? "I ain't never been to jail!" What do you want, a cookie?! You're not supposed to go to jail, you [[Buffy-Speak|low-expectation-having]] motherfucker!''}}
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Inverted in ''[[Mass Effect]]'' during the [[Jerkass|Renegade]] dialogue option for a scenario:
{{quote|'''Shepard:''' Saving my boots from burning lava is part of your job, Joker. We don't give medals to soldiers for doing their jobs.}}
** Only if you choose the [[Jerkass|Renegade]] dialogue option. If you choose Paragon, Joker will comment that he would probably have to shave his [[Badass Beard]] for the award ceremony, and [[Crowning Moment of Funny|no award is worth that.]]
 
== [[Real Life]] ==
* [http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/Feminist_cookie Feminist cookies.], a term for a specific variant of this trope. Also comes up with accusations of "white knighting", which is usually leveraged at such men speaking in defense of women, though it is just as often flung at any ''genuine'' display of basic decency.
