* DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlFAd4YdQks A scary straight versions happens]]. When the man is abusing the woman, people were quick to step in and stop him. When the woman abused the man, it took hours of filming and over 150 people passed by (''including a police officer'') before someone stepped in and called the cops. Several people when asked why they failed to intervene said they assumed that the man must have done something to deserve it, and freely admitted that had the positions been reversed they would have intervened. One woman was actually cheering on the abuser and saw her as a "role model."

* TheUnfairSex: This trope is made clear when WWYD {{Gender Flip}}s a scenario.
** For example, the show once staged a domestic spat in a park.
*** When the man was one the aggressing one, several people called the police. The man just had to yell at the woman to elicit response.
*** This very example is used to prop up deconstructions of DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale. The man just had to yell at the woman to elicit response. After the GenderFlip, however, most passersby chuckled and assumed he had it coming. The woman ended up ''beating the man over the head with a newspaper'', and even ''then'' the only people who did anything were a group of female joggers, who gave the woman a warning and secretly hung back to see if she followed. When she started hitting him again, they called the cops. Disturbingly, another woman called the abusive actress a [[DoubleStandard "role model" for women.]] And one of the men who ignored it was an off-duty cop.

* ComingOutStory: This is a scenario that WWYD explores quite often, since it's a hot-button issue in the USA, and WWYD typically uses it whenever they visit other cities. They also mix it up a bit: usually they play it with a child coming out to a parent, but they've also done it with a parent coming out to a child, a wife/fiancée/girlfriend coming out to her husband/fiancé/boyfriend, or vice versa. Usually it's played with the recepient of the WordOfGay freaking out, in order to elicit reactions from people.

When the actress started to feign feeling ill, and the actor playing the guy wanted to take her to his home, TheMark got up and left (only telling another patron the guy was "cheating" before leaving). When the camera crew caught up to the mark, he refused to speak to them.

Yes, a few [[TheMark mark]] reactions had conservative and faith-based bents, and nearly all reactions followed the "be good to others" {{Aesop}} that WWYD enjoys showcasing. The show noted that more Texans spoke out against the waitress berating gay parents than people did in the North. One guy even invoked and paraphrased Jesus to the waitress, telling her, "Don't judge."
