** PlayedForDrama with Bojack's father, Butterscotch, who admonishes his son for having an ImaginaryFriend because they were "invented by [[RedScare Communists]] to rip off welfare". We eventually learn in flashbacks that he took up this exaggerated version of the persona purely out of spite after he failed to make it as a Beat writer and married into money.
** Deconstructed with regards to Bojack's maternal grandfather Joseph Sugarman, who [[spoiler:got his wife Honey a lobotomy because he was woefully unprepared to [[RealMenHateAffection handle her grief]] over their son's death in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, and then threatened his daughter Beatrice (Bojack's mother) with one of her own if she didn't keep her emotions in check]].

**Deconstructed with regards to Bojack's maternal grandfather Joseph Sugarman, Sugarman is an even bigger deconstruction. He's shown in flashbacks to be an extremely strict husband and father who disregards his family's feelings and pushes them to fulfill their expected societal roles, to the point that he [[spoiler:got his wife Honey a lobotomy because he was woefully unprepared to [[RealMenHateAffection handle her grief]] over their son's death in UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, and then threatened his daughter Beatrice (Bojack's mother) with one of her own if she didn't keep her emotions in check]].

* As the ''Videogame/{{Fallout}}'' series is based on 50s culture with {{Zeerust}} technology, many subversions, parodies, and deconstructions of this character appear throughout. Jack Smith and his neighbour Willy Wilson in ''Videogame/Fallout3'' are almost iconic. Serious men who dress properly, care for their small families, don't vote for no commie beatniks and don't take kindly to strangers using bad language where the kids can hear. They love their families and believe that it's a man's job to "bring home the bacon". Quite literally since Andale is populated with cannibals.

* Parodied with Noah Levenstein in the ''Film/AmericanPie'' films. He is framed as this trope personified, which makes it ''incredibly'' awkward for his son Jim whenever he gets himself involved in the films' SexComedy antics, whether it's frequently [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown catching Jim with his pants down]] or having to give him TheTalk as a result.
