- Roy Mustang in Fullmetal Alchemist likes to play with girls and in general acts quite perverted. However, the girls he played with are actually his informants, and he has eyes only for Riza Hawkeye.
Something like a variant of the Jerkass Façade, where instead of being an asshole to others the character makes others uncomfortable by openly discussing what he masturbates to, making homoerotic comments/threats to straight people, crossdressing, reminiscing about Prison Rape, implying he's a pedophile, etc.
Usually it's shown the character is perfectly secure in his sexuality and is nowhere near a deviant as he presents himself, he just enjoys messing with people's heads to enjoy their shocked/embarrassed/uncomfortable reactions. Or he just doesn't want people to get too close to him for whatever reason and so uses this to ensure everyone sees him as a creep.
