* Miki Makimura in the manga ''Manga/Devilman'' is somewhat ashamed to have Akira witness her aggressive side, probably thinking that he wouldn't be interested in a tough tomboy. Because of this, she downplays her tomboyishness to appeal to Akira, feigning fright and weakness for Akira's attention, although she can still kick ass when in danger.

* ''Series/TheBoys2019''. A DiscussedTrope when Hughie Campbell starts dating female superhero Starlight, and realises she's pretending to be bad at bowling to protect his male ego. She mentions kicking the ass of a bully who punched her prom date...who never spoke to her again. Hughie doesn't have a problem, finding her SuperStrength rather cool.

* ''Franchise/FullmetalAlchemist'':
** In the original ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', we have [[IronLady Olivier Mira Armstrong]], who can and does beat up her LightningBruiser younger brother who is twice her size, ridiculously muscular [[FanDisservice and not afraid to show it]], as well as a high-ranking state alchemist. Nearly every man she meets has a healthy respect for her if they are not downright afraid of her. One of her own soldiers even says that she's "too ''scary'' to be a woman!"

Another to keep in mind is that the guy (or girl or whomever) may be turned off not because of their strength or power, but more because of the personality attributes one would assume an Amazon would have (aggression, intimidating personality, easily prone to violence, etc.) That doesn't go on here unless her strength is directly connected to said personality.
