* AbusiveParents: Her father in Post-Crisis continuity was a hardline military enthusiast who wanted a son and was disappointed when his first (and second) child was a girl. The reason Lois is a {{tomboy}} is that Sam raised her as if she was a boy in need of military training, yet he didn't bother to provide her with enough parental affection, causing their relationship to remain jaded and complicated. Ultimately, their relationship turns outright antagonistic when Sam becomes directly opposed to Kryptonians, of whom Superman and Supergirl are a part of.

Given that Sam Lane committed mass extinction to New Krypton out of irrational hate and paranoia as well as grooming Lucy into being a weapon, Lois has every reason to disparage her father.

Meganekko is no longer a trope. It's a Fanspeak term. Moving wicks to Bespectacled Cutie when appropriate.

* OutdatedName: A classic example. "Lois" was a pretty trendy girls' name during the Golden Age of Comic Books, but has underwent a significant drop in popularity since then. By TheEighties, when it dropped out of the top 1000 names for girls, it was associated more with middle-aged women than twentysomethings. Nowadays, you can't possibly say "Lois" [[JustForFun/OneMarioLimit without picturing Superman's girlfriend]].

Hypnotize The Princess has been renamed to Hypnotize The Captive. Misuse and Administrivia.Zero Context Examples will be deleted. This trope is about a villain hypnotizing their captive in order to make them submit to them.
