* ''BreathOfFire'' games often tend to feature battles with muscly, oily men in speedos... often with [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere absolutely no explanation whatsoever]].

* Hapshiel the Angel from ''MacademiWasshoi''. Finea, Eneus' little sister, is repeatedly sent to him by Eitarou in episode nine and, despite the scarring she most likely got from seeing a muscular man in very little clothing kiss her multiple times over, ''keeps going back''.

* Mr. Slave from ''SouthPark'', often seen along (CampGay) Mr. Garrison.

** Ironically, in the new 2000 or so (I forget exactly when it came out) Masters of the Universe cartoon had CamClarke doing the voice of He-Man and Prince Adam, and he actually is gay irl.

** Of course, the place is called [[{{Bishonen}} The Island of Beautiful Men]].

* ''ChoAniki'' is largely based on this, especially the later games. Nearly nude muscle men fly around space shooting gooey energy out of their phallic heads to do battle with other naked space monsters that are usually conglomerations of big muscular men with fairy wings or something. How I wish I was making this up. Please [[http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/sexual-games/10.php see here]] for a comprehensive analysis of this series. It's something that should not be missed. Really.

* [[Characters/DisgaeaHourOfDarkness Laharl’s]] uncle [[Characters/DisgaeaNovels Vesuvius]] from the {{Disgaea}} [[DisgaeaNovels novels]] is a very feminine macho man. He talks like a women and literally [[RealMenWearPink wear pink]], but it unknown if he is truly gay because he is married to a women, a really horrible women at that. Though it just might be that because he is such a [[TooKinkyToTorture masochist]] and she is a TortureTechnician.

* The third game in the ''StreetsOfRage'' series had a Hard Gay miniboss named Ash who ran around, bodyslammed you and then giggled like a little girl. When you beat him, he'd sit on the ground and cry. After beating him, you could use him as a player character. For obvious reasons, he was dummied out of the US version although it was still possible to play him using game genie codes.

* Mr. Slave from ''SouthPark''.

* Shore Leave of ''TheVentureBrothers''.

* Shore Leave of ''TheVentureBros''

** TheNostalgiaCritic seems to believe it hardly, as we can see in his review of [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/14482-hmsrch He-Man Christmas Special]] and [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/1184-he-man-and-the-masters-of-the-universe live action movie]]

* The second ''JohnnyBravo'' pilot ends with the titular character getting stranded on an entire island of them. Needless to say, after trying to score with an entire tribe of HotAmazon women, this was most certainly NOT what he was hoping for.

* ''TheSimpsons'': "Homer's Phobia"' featured a number of [[HardGay Hard Gays]] at a steel mill. Homer had thought that seeing American Joe's hard at work would "cure" Bart of his (believed) homosexuality. It didn't. [[WorkHardPlayHard "We work hard - we ''play'' hard!"]]

* In the DistantFinale of ''DragonBall Z'', Trunks is horrified to discover that his opponent (named Otokosuki, or "man-love") looks HardGay but ''acts'' CampGay and is positively ''thrilled'' that Trunks is such a pretty young man.

* Muscle Okama from ''ZettaiKarenChildren''. Besides the leather getup, his psychic ability is crotch beams. As if calling a HardGay character [[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/okama "okama"]] weren't enough...

This stereotype is somewhat more common in Japan (where it has become the default gay stereotype, as [[{{DudeLooksLikeALady}} fashion-conscious]] [[{{Bishonen}} pretty boys]] are more associated with heterosexuals there) than in the US, but is still seen in Western media. Almost always PlayedForLaughs, such characters are often introduced to be ComicRelief, or [[RapeIsFunnyWhenItsMaleOnMale to hit on the straight guy who can do little to stop it]].

* Scarron from ''ZeroNoTsukaima'' is a mixture of HardGay and CampGay.
