* In ''Literature/{{Victoria}}'', this is the general view in the [[KnightTemplar Northern Confederation]] and among its allies. The collapse of the decadent and corrupt United States and its Godless liberalism put an end to the illusions of political correctness and female equality, and in the new, Godly order, women are expected to know their place -- and be grateful that they haven't ended up in [[NoWomansLand a place with an even worse degree of oppression]], like the Middle East. This attitude is also influenced by the fact that their worst enemy is a LadyLand.

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' epitomizes this level. Though one episode featured a villain who was a StrawFeminist trying to convince the girls that all men are dogs and that women are superior, as a lesson that this ''isn't'' the case. And there was the Rowdyruff Boys, whose debut episode had them handily outclass the girls in physical strength.

* Various {{harem}} series, where [[GenderRestrictedAbility only the girls can gain powers]] fall here for the obvious reason of just having an easy setup.

* In the Creator/GeneRoddenberry TV-pilot film ''Planet Earth'', the PAX team led by Dylan Hunt encounters a society where the women rule the man, and in many ways, reverse 20th Century gender roles, attitudes, and behaviors. This is a favorite of Roddenberry's: he [[RecycledInSPACE uses the exact same society setup]] in the Season 1 ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' episode "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E13AngelOne Angel One]]".
