* A less naive example occurs in ''Literature/LittleWomen'' when TheLadette Jo March is saddened by the idea of her sister Meg inevitably leaving the household to get married at some point, and declares a wish to marry Meg herself in order to keep her in the family. In this case, Jo knows perfectly well that this isn't how it works and is simply frustrated by the fact that there's very little she can do as a woman to affect the future of her family in a male-dominated society, and being OneOfTheBoys will only get her so far.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons,'' this is something of a RunningGag with Rod and Todd Flanders, whose sheltered upbringing has left them naive even by the standards of elementary schoolers. In "The Man Who Grew Too Much" they declare they'll marry each other, while in "Let's Go Fly a Coot" Rod assumes he'll marry his father Ned. It gets {{Inverted}} in "Peeping Mom," where the kids seem confused about whether they're related to the Simpsons due to Homer's HonoraryUncle status.
