If a male lion is ousted by another and has to fend for themselves, they tend to make poorer hunters because their distinctive manes make it harder to sneak up on prey, and their bulk makes them slower, and may starve to death.

* During the siege of the Hungarian castle and town of Eger (by the Ottomans) in 1552, the men did most of the hand-to-hand fighting, but it was the women who poured the cauldrons of boiling oil, tar, and any other nasty liquid they got their hands on. Demonstrated succintly in a Hungarian musical made from one of the novels written about the siege, where the women of Eger get their own rocking song. The chorus translated goes something like this: "Fire, let there be burning fire, let [our liquids] boil and brew, and the attackers will pay, because I'll chase them off to Hell! Fly on a black cloud, oh hot death, Hellfire awaits them [the attackers], let them run away from here, blood-soaked! No weak missus is she, put the wooden spoon and headscarf away, the brave women of Eger grab swords! We have to act, and not cry, up, to the bastion, to fight, kill the Turks, we have to win here, today!"
* At the ''Red Army Faction (Rote Armee Fraktion)'', a communist terrorist group in Germany, a good half of the full members and around eighty percent of the supporters were women. The police quickly recommended that when they encounter the terrorists, shoot the women first because they are much more dangerous in combat. On the one hand, they would fight as brutally as possible in order to be respected by their male ''comrades-in-arms''. On the other hand, as left-wing extremist terrorists, they have little inhibitions about shooting male police officers because they see non-left men as part of ''the patriarchy''. This has become a well known feature of female terrorists, so much that an entire book (''Shoot the Women First '') was published on the topic.

* Lord Hater is the BigBad of ''WesternAnimation/{{Wander Over Yonder}}'' until the Dominator shows up. She gets her jollies by destroying every planet in the galaxy. After she's destroyed everything except for a tiny little planet where the heroes are plotting to defeat her, she starts to feel very sad and depressed...because there's nothing left to destroy. She's so evil that during the series finale, Lord Hater teams up with Wander and his friends to defeat her because she's destroyed the galaxy he wanted to conquer. After she's finally defeated, she almost seems to want to be Wander's friend and become a good guy for a few moments, but then she decides she'd rather storm off in a huff instead.

* ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'': There really isn't much evidence that [[Characters/{{Aliens}} Xenomorphs]] '''have''' genders, being implicitly asexual or hermaphroditic. However, it's common in the ExpandedUniverse to explicitly describe the huge, powerful Queen as a female and the "Praetorians" or Drones/Warriors as males, who mate with the much larger and stronger Queen to help her produce eggs. A Dark Horse novel/comic, ''Rogue'', involves an attempt by a MadScientist to genetically engineer a "King Alien," the titular Rogue, who is mindlessly violent and aggressive, slaughtering every other Xenomorph it encounters -- until it meets the Queen, which is smaller but smarter, quicker and more agile, quickly tearing the King apart.

One explanation for this would be, ironically, MenUseViolenceWomenUseCommunication - guys will settle things down by a ritualised scuffle (which wouldn't be practical if it was too likely to kill the loser) or play-fight (being killed is no fun). Gals don't fight unless they're really, really serious about it, since they settle their minor conflict by talking and prefer other kinds of fun. So they fight to the death. And when you have no chance in a fair fight, that's no incentive to fight fair.
