** In "Miss Teacher Bangs a Boy", Kyle's baby brother, Ike, has an affair with his kindergarten teacher. Kyle finds out and goes to the police, who immediately assume that the teacher is a man. [[RapeIsOkayWhenItIsFemaleOnMale Once they find out that she's actually an attractive young woman, they stop taking the situation seriously.]]

As a result, many otherwise-rational adults have shown discomfort with openly gay people interacting with children, or with homosexuality being remotely discussed in front of kids below a certain age, even if they're already learning about sex.

*** Well the pictures weren't exactly innocent. Some were just nude pictures and others were pictures of the mother massaging the girl (both nude). Apparently these were something a psychiatrist recommended to help the little girl.

* Invoked in the American version of ''QueerAsFolk'', in which Brian's homophobic sister asks him to babysit her son. The little asshole, upon returning home, swears that Brian made him suck him off and of course, everyone believes him. This is supposedly due to the sister making homophobic slurs about Brian in front of the kid.
** A similar thing happens on the UK version of ''QueerAsFolk'', which leads to a CrowningMomentOfAwesome for Stuart.

** Debbie also mentions in the first season that when her sister found out that Michael was gay, she wouldn't let her kids come over anymore because she was afraid Michael would molest them.

* ''SouthPark'' has mocked this attitude twice. In the episode "Cripple Fight", Big Gay Al is fired from the [[ScoutOut Mountain Scouts]] because of his sexuality and replaced with an supposedly heterosexual man, who really ''does'' molest the boys. And in "Miss Teacher Bangs a Boy", Kyle's baby brother, Ike, has an affair with his kindergarten teacher. Kyle finds out and goes to the police, who immediately assume that the teacher is a man. [[RapeIsOkayWhenItIsFemaleOnMale Once they find out that she's actually an attractive young woman, they stop taking the situation seriously.]]
** Played straight with Mr. Garrison in "Cartman Joins NAMBLA" (though this episode took place right before he actually came out).
*** Although has Chef said [[DepravedHomosexual "There is a BIG difference between Gay people and Mr. Garrison"]]

* General Blue in ''{{Dragon Ball}}'' in the anime and videogames]. In the manga he's just gay.

Unfortunately not quite a DeadHorseTrope yet, the basic idea of this one is that all homosexuals (especially gay men) have a sexual interest in children and will molest them if they get a chance. This [[UnfortunateImplications unfortunate]] trope is still used as an excuse to persecute the gay community, the primary fear being that gays are trying to "recruit" children as part of the ''"Gay agenda"'' (related to RapeAndSwitch). Somebody ThinkOfTheChildren!

You'll notice below that most recent examples of this trope are subversions, playing on people's prejudices only to reveal that the gays in question aren't pedophiles after all. Or the person making the claim is clearly a bigot the audience is supposed to side against from the start. Indeed, the majority of RealLife child molesters are heterosexual men, targeting children (of either sex) already known to them.

* Frank Herbert, author of ''Dune'', was accused of invoking this trope via the character of Vladimir Harkonnen, though there was [[hottip:another explanation:he wasn't attracted young boys because he was gay, he was gay because he was attracted to young boys, or more precisely, to himself at that age. He was seriously screwed up, on multiple levels.]]. The fact that that series isn't exactly long on gay characters didn't help matters.

Unfortunately not quite a DeadHorseTrope yet, the basic idea of this one is that all homosexuals (especially gay men) have a sexual interest in children and will molest them if they get a chance. Sometimes coupled to the idea that the ''only'' people who have sexual attractions to children below a certain age are homosexuals (still especially gay men). Somebody ThinkOfTheChildren!

This trope is naturally rife with UnfortunateImplications, and is still used as an excuse to persecute the gay community. It's related to the equally-illogical RapeAndSwitch, the fear being that gays are trying to "recruit" children as part of their ''"Gay agenda"''. Unfortunately such bigotry still exists into the present day.

You'll notice below that most recent examples of this trope are subversions, playing on people's prejudices only to reveal that the gay men in question are innocent. Indeed, most RealLife child molesters are heterosexual men, targeting children (including boys) they already know, so a child is actually ''far more'' likely to be molested by a straight man than a gay man.

* Hisoka from ''HunterXHunter.'' He hits on four people, three of them are boys, all of them are underaged. This also includes the Live Action Musical preformed by the anime's Japanese seiyuu cast.

* There are several in Kuroshitsuji. Nina & Viscount Druitt are bisexual pedophiles, Lord Trancy senior & Claude from the anime only like underaged boys, & Baron Klein from the manga likes men & underaged boys.
* {{Berserk}}: there is Lord Gennon and Donovan. Paedophilia is kinda common in Miura's work to emphasize just how [[CrapsackWorld crappy]] a place Midland is, it's not just Gennon, or even homosexuals. Just ask Charlotte. Or even better, [[spoiler: ask Guts himself why he HatesBeingTouched so much since Donovan is the one who rapes him]].

[[AC:{{Film}}]]

* The 1950s film ''Red Light, Green Light: Meeting Strangers'', and not only did it have the "all pedophiles are strangers lurking in bushes" trope, but most of the film was about young boys being targeted by older men. The very last segment in the film was about a girl who was targeted by... an older woman.

[[AC:{{Literature}}]]

[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* Repeatedly averted in ''LawAndOrderSpecialVictimsUnit'', which at one point pulls a LampshadeHanging on this trope by pointing out that somewhere around 90% of pedophiles are heterosexual men.

* [[HeraldsOfValdemar Vanyel Ashkevron]] had his own family thinking this of him when he came out as homosexual. It took years for him to get them to understand that he preferred more mature relationships. In fact, the Valdemaran word saych (From the Tayledras shay'a'chern) came into existence when the population realized that with their greatest war hero being openly gay, they needed to have a ''polite'' word for that concept in their language.

Unfortunately many people believed this in the past, and some still do it today.
