Whenever a guy happens to [[CrossDresser need girls' clothes]] for [[GenderBender some reason]], the girls around him suddenly get a PsychoticSmirk... oh boy. This activity is always portrayed as more fun for the girls than for the boy; girls in fiction just relish the opportunity to play with the victim like a doll and often revel in his discomfort. And this is all PlayedForLaughs and is sometimes executed with a GilliganCut.

* An extremely common trope in transgender fiction, as seen on sites like [[http://www.fictionmania.tv/ FictionMania]]. It is said that none dragged this way... [[FirstLawOfGenderBending have ever returned *dramatic thunder*]]. In TG fiction, the trope is less likely to be PlayedForLaughs, instead often leading to a revelation of AttractiveBentGender and representing a first step on a journey of self-discovery (which may be figurative and/or [[ManIFeelLikeAWoman literal]].)

* Done in the second season of {{Darker Than Black}}, where in one episode {{plucky comic relief}} Kiko and Gai from the first season bump into Suo, July, and Mao (whose currently residing in the body of a squirrel) and help Suo in her search for her mother in Toyko. During this time, Kiko and her friends dress up July (a reputedly emotionless male "doll" with no will of his own mind you) in frilly dresses and makeup until he apparently grows annoyed and leaves. It's one of the few lighthearted episodes of the series.

It's not as bad as it sounds, but surely as crazy.
