** Kam is voiced by Creator/JaniceKawaye, which also doubles as TalkingToHimself, as his twin sister Kim is also voiced by Kawaye.

** This trope is [[ExaggeratedTrope exaggerated]] in the French dub: barring [[SixthRanger William]], all main male characters are voiced by women.

* WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}, a young female frog is voiced by a man in every dub of the show (except for Polish). In the English dub, she's voiced by Doug Rand, [[TalkingToHimself who also voices Stumpy and Quack Quack.]]

* Even if you've seen every episode of ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken'', it's ''very'' easy to forget sometimes that Cow is voiced by a man.
