History Main / CockyRooster

* :''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'':

* GenderFlipped in ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973'': Lady Kluck, a hen, is Maid Marian's boisterous, loud-mouthed lady-in-waiting, whereas Alan-A-Dale, a rooster, is a friendly minstrel who narrates the story.

* The ''WesternAnimation/SillySymphonies'' short "Cock O'The Walk" is about a fight between a burly black rooster and a scrawnier brown one over a pretty hen. The black rooster fits this trope to a T as a showy, bullying, macho, cigar-chomping boxing champion; the brown rooster is more of an underdog with a hopeless romantic personality, but he has a fierce temper, as he's the one initiating the fight, and becomes an invincible fighting machine after getting kissed by the hen.

* One of the villains in ''Videogame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves'' is General Tsao, a Chinese rooster and a warlord who fights with both SupernaturalMartialArts and black magic.

* ''Animation/MavkaTheForestSong'': The rooster of the farm of Lukash and his uncle seems to really hate Frol (the BigBad's assistant) and attacks him any chance he gets, possibly seeing a rival in him due to how flamboyantly dressed Frol is rather than a mere intruder.

However, there is one exception to that rule: adult male chickens, also known as "roosters", "cockerels" or "cocks" [[SeparatedByACommonLanguage depending where you come from]] (although the latter term is [[HaveAGayOldTime gradually falling out of use]] due to [[DoubleEntendre its other meaning]]). Roosters are stereotyped as fierce and boisterous animals, and are closely associated with [[RatedMForManly masculinity and machoism]]. They are commonly depicted as horny [[TheCasanova Casanovas]] who constantly flirt with and/or harass hens (in line with the latter characteristic and [[HaveAGayOldTime term]]), or [[TheBully bullies]] who pick on smaller fowl. Due to their more flamboyant appearance compared to hens and their habit of perching high above the ground, roosters are also associated with pompousness and AttentionWhore tendencies, and are often depicted as having a smug, snobbish attitude.
