'''Basic Trope''': Women's prisons are treated as an ExcusePlot for lesbian porn or are presented as cozy, clean and safe in contrast to men's prisons.
* '''Straight''': Alice is sent to prison for {{jaywalking|WillRuinYourLife}}. She ends up entering into a [[GirlOnGirlIsHot hot, steamy relationship with her cellmate]].
* '''Exaggerated''': Alice's cell is a LuxuryPrisonSuite. Heck, Alice MightAsWellNotBeInPrisonAtAll. And all the inmates wear sexy lingerie under their prison uniforms and have orgy parties together.
* '''Downplayed''':
** Alice's cell isn't too bad (more like a college dorm room), and she gets along well with the other inmates, but isn't anyone's girlfriend.
** Alice gets a girlfriend in prison, but they rarely have sex, and prison is as bad as it logically should be.
* '''Justified''':
** Alice is in a minimum-security prison, and there isn't much in the way of gang culture in this setting.
** Alice is wealthy and committed a white-collar crime.
* '''Inverted''':
** Alice is in a HellholePrison, and PrisonRape is PlayedForDrama, not for {{Fanservice}}.
** Bob gets sent to prison for jaywalking, and it's not so bad compared to women's prisons... And it's full of {{Yaoi|Genre}}.
* Two female prison guards get into a relationship.
* '''Subverted''': The prison is a CrapsaccharineWorld, it looks clean and comfortable and the women seems loving, but a lot of coercion happens under the surface.
* '''Double Subverted''': The women are kinky, most of the coercion is harmless roleplay.
* '''Parodied''':
** Alice and the other inmates are given nothing but revealing swimsuits to wear, and the conditions of the whole place resemble those of a Vacational-Center / Luxury-Spa, complete with massage tables, saunas, swimming pools and artificial beaches!
** The prison is an over-the-top, seedy and bleak hellhole where brutal torture and rape are everyday occurances... but all the girls are either [[TooKinkyToTorture complete masochists who got arrested just to get in on the action]] or just too used to constant brutality and violence and [[CrossesTheLineTwice carry out the light girly conversation while being beaten with nightsticks]].
* '''Zig Zagged''': There is little consistency regarding the danger of the prison or the sexuality of the inmates.
* '''Averted''':
** The prison is portrayed as dangerous, maybe even to the point of being a HellholePrison.
** Alice doesn't go to prison.
* '''Enforced''': GirlOnGirlIsHot, ViewersAreMorons.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Don't worry about it, Alice; girl jail is just lingerie-clad pillow fights. You know, like on TV!"
* '''Invoked''': Alice is sent to prison.
* '''Exploited''': Alice's book/film about her experience when she went to prison is disguised as this in advertisement, because SexSells. It's actually an authentic, realistic testimony with no gratuitous fanservice.
* '''Defied''': "You really think female prisons are all about carpet-munching and lounging around in lacey lingerie? Bob, stop watching TV, it does things to you."
* '''Discussed''': "Alice will be fine; women's prisons aren't that bad. Not like men's prisons." "Then explain to me why the prettiest inmates come out with huge facial scars they didn't have upon going in."
* '''Conversed''': "Clearly, TV writers should stop fapping and start researching how a women's prison ''really'' works."
* '''Deconstructed''': Because everyone believes a women's prison is just a peaceful dormitory for naughty girls, nobody notices that all the prisoners are planning a massive escape. When the plan is put to execution, no one is prepared and the whole prison's staff gets slaughtered by the inmates as they successfully escape.
* '''Reconstructed''': The setting is portrayed realistically, with Alice struggling everyday to survive and ''not'' become anyone's [[SexSlave "special friend."]]
* '''Played For Drama''': The prison forces everyone to be the stars of a reality porn show. Alice is humiliated by what she has to do.
