In some cartoons and video games with animal and aliens, the male characters are often either [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal pantless]] or [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal naked save for accessories]], but the female characters are more or less fully dressed, whether [[BarefootFunnyAnimals barefoot]] or not. In a few instances, the male characters are shirtless. The female characters tend to be more fully clothed than the male characters.

* In the SlyCooper games, most of the male characters are habitually pantsless, but almost all the female characters are fully dressed. The exception is The Contessa from Sly 2, but she's a spider-centaur-thing with no humanoid legs.
** In a behind-the-scenes unlockable in Sly 2, one developer comments that Sly is "a universe in pants-less-ness."
* In the SonicTheHedgehog game series, all male, non-human characters [[AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal wear nothing but shoes and gloves]], and all females are fully clothed.
** But in the ''SonicTheHedgehog'' cartoons and comics, a sort of flip-flop in dressing code happens between the genders. With little exception, young male characters are mostly naked and young female characters are almost always fully dressed, but as they mature, the ''males'' start wearing more clothing, while the females start wearing much ''less''. Amy Rose and Cream the Rabbit, for example, are not yet into their teens, and wear full dresses and panties, while their much older counterpart Sally Acorn only wears boots and a vest; similarly, Knuckles is almost completely nude in his teenage years, while his much older family members (and eventually himself, as revealed in the latest "25 Years Later" StoryArc) all wear some form of full bodysuit or cloak.
