I think the Bridget pic works better than the current pic, at the very least. Yes, it fits better on Viewer Gender Confusion but it also works here until we can come up with an actually decent in-universe example.

Or we can leave this page imageless until a good in-universe example comes up.

Since "no image" is better than "misleading image", I'd say keep it imageless until we find a better one.

For the Startling Moments pic, I still find that it would make sense without the Samus caption.

"Bridget ''isn't".
-Bridget isn't what?
And then fridge brilliance sets in.

Bump, and can we get a crowner? I'm supporting this.

Okay this may not be the best choice, but what about Bridgette's profile page (the one that shows up in the game when you pick him in story mode), with the 'gender' section highlighted?

The problem with the current leading picture is that it does not illustrate the trope. This trope is in-universe reactions only; audience reactions go at Viewer Gender Confusion. Dropped A Bridget On Him is in TRS partly because it commonly gets misused for audience reactions; putting up a picture of an audience reaction is likely to make the misuse worse, and therefore is a bad idea.

Mariya Holic has a perfect situation, but not so perfect frames sad
Does this look like she's swooning over the "girl"?
Or maybe the trap actively moving for seduction?

Does this show the reveal?

Isn't the leading image somewhat a borderline example? In a way it's Audience Reaction, in another it's In-Universe.

I agree with Catalogue, the image is basically In-Universe, or at least it's taking place in some hypothetical realm where a gamer can physically meet a video game character.

If the image was those guys sitting on a couch, playing a game, and seeing Bridget on-screen or somesuch, that wouldn't count, but I think the current one's OK.

Well, for what it's worth, the crowner has spoken. The pic is up, tagged, and the caption links the original work and the artist's name. Locking up...I'm gonna assume that a new thread about this will get started, but can it wait for a week or two while we work on some other threads? kthxbai
