* In ''[[Ranma ~~One Half~~]]'', [[Arranged Marriage|Akane]], [[Accidental Marriage|Shampoo]], [[Childhood Marriage Promise|Ukyo]] and even [[Stalker with a Crush|Kodachi]] are ''incredibly quick'' to administer violent "justice" upon Ranma whenever ''they'' think he's interested in another girl. But past the manga's turning point, when Ranma sincerely believed that Akane loved the newcomer Shinnosuke, he took his grievances with ''the new guy'' and was incredibly polite and submissive towards Akane, only screaming his frustration when he was alone in the forest. And even when Ranma outright asked her "Why?" [[Cannot Spit It Out|Akane never bothered explaining]] [[I Owe You My Life|that she was]] [[Chronic Hero Syndrome|helping]] [[Incurable Cough of Death|Shinnosuke]]; meanwhile, no one ever lets ''Ranma'' [[I Can Explain|explain]] [[Not What It Looks Like|his unfortunate]] [[Accidental Pervert|accidents]], let alone ''ask'' him.

** There's even a [[Lampshading]] of this very early in the series: Akane walks in on Ranma while he's getting out of the bath, and both are naked, although Akane at least has a towel. Akane gets pissed at him, and when he points out the blatant unfairness of this, she responds with "It's different for girls!" Also note in both similar scenes, He looks her in the eyes, she looks him up and down.
