History PlayingWith / MadonnaWhoreComplex

'''Basic Trope''': [[ThereAreTwoKindsOfPeopleInTheWorld There are two kinds of women]]: Respectable Women who don't have sex (marriageable) and Whores who do have sex (not marriageable).
* '''Straight''': Bob has two women he likes: Alice (TheIngenue), and Betty (TheVamp).

* '''Gender Inverted''': Alice has two men she likes: Bob (the shy NiceGuy) and Charles (TheCasanova).

* '''Enforced''': MyGirlIsNotASlut, ValuesDissonance
* '''Lampshaded''': Bob says: "There are two kinds of women in the world: the women you marry and have kids with and the women you fuck."

** Bob chooses Alice, the "good" girl, but she doesn't have a heck of a lot in common with him; he chooses her on the basis that "she'll make a good wife and mother." Eventually, Bob becomes bored with Alice, and finds himself tempted by Betty and her ilk. Alice is hurt because Bob is losing interest in her and neglecting her, and Bob is hurt because he now feels like it was a big mistake to marry Alice, he feels guilty for [[YourCheatingHeart cheating with]] (or just lusting after) Betty, he blames Betty for his problems, Alice is jealous of Betty, and (ironically) Alice and Bob's home life is in more danger than it likely would have been if he had just chosen Betty in the first place. The marriage becomes [[AwfulWeddedLife troubled]], and might just end altogether depending on [[ValuesDissonance the setting.]]

Alice was later revealed to be CuteButPsycho, and wasn't happy with Bob and Betty's relationship.

* '''Reconstructed''': SexIsGood; it is realized that the "good" girl Bob marries likely wants to have (and enjoy) post-marital sex, not just LieBackAndThinkOfEngland, and the "wild" woman Bob hooks up with is (barring a drug addiction or other major malfunction ''not'' related to her sexuality) very likely capable of being nurturing and faithful.
