* [[{{Ptitlegynukzwikxmd}} Ranma ½]] this is a common trick (mostly by the Tendo sisters) to subdue Ranma in female form, mostly because Ranma - a guy who's cursed to transform into a woman - is still unused to the enhanced sensitivity and [[RuleOfFunny because it's funny.]]
* ''IchiTheKiller''. Poor Myu-Myu.
** In another scene, a prostitute has her nipples cut off.
* In ''{{Hellsing}}'', in a ShootTheHostage moment, Alucard shoots the VillainOfTheWeek through Seras, making a [[{{Understatement}} rather large]] [[NightmareFuelUnleaded hole through]] her right breast. [[IGotBetter She gets better, though.]] [[GoodThingYouCanHeal More or less.]]
* In ''{{Naruto}}'' Kabuto didn't ''mean'' to attack Tsunade's breasts. He was just trying to stab her in the heart, but her brobdinagian boobage got in the way.
** Doubly played for laughs, as Kabuto can't determine if his attack was ineffective because of her advanced ninja training or because her breasts are [[MostCommonSuperPower just too damn big.]]

* WeirdOrWhat suggests that breast implants protected a woman from being shot.

BreastAttack is the DistaffCounterpart to GroinAttack, since receiving blunt trauma to the breasts is extremely painful for women, though probably not as painful as GroinAttack is for men. The nipples are also rather sensitive, but this is true for men as well.

* Akane made a squeeze-attack on [[{{ptitlegynukzwikxmd}} Ranma's]] tit ([[CaptainObvious When "he" was in her/his "she"-form]]) to break up a between him/her and Ryoga in his piglet-form because she thought, as always, that Ranma was picking on "P-Chan".

* There's one in [[{{Ptitlegynukzwikxmd}} Ranma ½]] where Nabiki does this to Ranma. Since Ranma is actually a guy who transforms into a girl, this one is played for comedy.

** This is after the cow ''attacks'' him by squirting milking ''itself'' to quirt him.

A BreastAttack is sometimes intended to show that the ([[AlwaysMale male]]) attacker is [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty playing dirty]] (and [[WouldntHitAGirl against a woman too]], [[DoubleStandard how low!]]). You're supposed to wince at this one, but this trope is occasionally PlayedForLaughs. If the victim is already a ButtMonkey, it's okay to laugh. Or if it's [[CatFight a woman doing it to another woman]]. Or a man [[ComedicSociopathy getting a purple nurple]].

In reality, a GroinAttack is much more dangerous (and painful) for women than a BreastAttack, not even so much because of genitalia but more because of being a site of most major vital nerves and blood-vessels to the lower extremities. However in a fight breasts are a much easier target, which is why the BreastAttack is much more common than a female GroinAttack.

* The webcomic [[http://www.exiern.com Exiern]] has a classic one: The main character Tiffany is a male barbarian hero who have been trapped in female form by a bad wizard. She want to be a man again, and the local pristhood think they can help her. But she ''hates'' the local priesthood. So the sidekick Penelope have her tied to the altar against her will, for her own good, and the priests try their ritual. It fails. Afterwards, she explains to Tiffany that she had counted on Tiffany being a man now, so his code of honor would prevent him from hurting her... And the last panel is just one big "OW". The next page is all about Penelope being shocked that Tiffany "punched her in the boob".

* Rare male example: In the penultimale episode of TheVentureBrothers season 3, Brock Samson's nipple gets cut off.

* Angela rips the skin off another character's breasts in the ''NightOfTheDemons'' remake.

* ScottPilgrim: "You punched me in the boob!"

** [[{{Superbad}}Funnily enough, that isn't even the first mammary based assault Michael Cera has pulled off, they're both accidental.]]

*** In addition to having her throat slashed, rumors abounded that Nicole Brown Simpson's ''breasts'' were deliberately slashed off in the attack as well-- however the [[http://www.lectlaw.com/files/cas45.htm coroner's report]] refutes these rumors entirely.
