History Main / CrossDressingVoices

* Snap, one of the three Rice Krispies mascots, was briefly voiced by a woman in UsefulNotes/TheNineties.

** In the Japanese dub, this is subverted with Fievel by having him voiced by a male child actor for the first two films (including Creator/DaisukeNamikawa in the first), but played straight with the direct-to-video sequels, which had Fievel voiced by Creator/IkueOtani.

* The 90's OneHitWonder, "I Got A Man" by Positive K, features an unnamed woman performing a rap duet with Positive K. It turns out that the mysterious female vocalist is actually [[TalkingToHimself Positive K himself]], except with his voice pitch-shifted.

* Riki of ''VisualNovel/LittleBusters'' is voiced by Tamiyasu Tomoe, [[TalkingToHimself who also did the voices for two of the heroines]], Rin and Sasami. In the anime adaptation, Tomoe is replaced by another woman, Creator/YuiHorie, in order to avert TalkingToHimself. Furthermore, Creator/ShannonEmerick voices him in the dub, creating a rare instance in which the Crossdressing Voice of a boy who is ''not'' a child is preserved while dubbing an anime from Japanese to English.

* In ''WebAnimation/TheMostEpicStoryEverToldInAllOfHumanHistory'', all ten characters are voiced [[TalkingToHimself by the same person]]. The voice actor is male but two of these characters, Little Miss Epic and Epically Avoids You, are female.

* in WebAnimation/StarshineCarly, all the male characters are voiced by Creator/CarlyGarton herself.
** Mostly because, she’s [[TalkingToHerself the only]] [[MinimalistCast voice actress]].

* In ''Machinima/HalfLifeButTheAIIsSelfAware'', Dr. Coomer is played by transgender woman Holly/hollow_tones.

* For ''WesternAnimation/ArloTheAlligatorBoy'', the female Furlecia is voiced by a male, Jonathan Van Ness.

* In both Albanian dubs of ''WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}'', the titular character is voiced by a woman.

* In the Albanian dub of ''WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}'', the titular character is voiced by Suela Qosja.

* Gypsy of ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' was played by Jim Mallon until 1996, when he handed the role off to Patrick Brantseg. Josh Weinstein played her during the KTMA era. All three did it by inhaling as they spoke. (This is averted, however, in the revival, where she's voiced by Rebecca Hanson.)

** Mostly because, she’s [[ TalkingtoHerself the only]] [[ MinimalistCast voice actress]].

* ''WebAnimation/RobotboxAndCactus'' has Aunt Barbara voiced by Justin Davey.

* The title character from ''WesternAnimation/TheBraveLittleToaster'' best fits this trope. The Toaster actually has a ViewerGenderConfusion controversy, causing many fans to think it is either male or female. Ironically, while the Toaster is referred to as a male character in the movies, "his" voice actress Deanna Oliver calls the Toaster "she" and "her." The gender also varies in several countries, in which sometimes (in Brazil, for example), the Toaster is actually female. Although most dubs have him voiced by women, he is actually voiced by a male actor in the Latin Spanish, German, Finnish, and Croatian dubs. (Most notably Germany, due to "toaster" being masculine.)
* Clara Rumyanova was most famous for voicing little children and animals in the classics of Soviet animation. Her parts include Lillebror from ''Literature/CarlssonOnTheRoof'', Alyosha in ''The Black Hen'', and many others.

'''Please do not list "retroactive" examples''' of transgender actors who performed characters of their biological sex before they transitioned some point post-production. This trope requires the casting to be an intentional decision. The fact that an actor no longer corresponds to the gender of a character they played is ultimately irrelevant to the work itself, and doesn't change the fact that, when they were cast for the role, they ''were'' perceived by the world at large to be the same gender as the character.

* In the first ''Little Polar Bear'' (known as ''Lars der kleine eisbär'' in Germany and "Lars de kleine ijsbeer" in Dutch) movie, this is averted with [[BearyFriendly Lars the titular polar bear]], who is voiced by a male child actor, but played straight with [[SweetSeal Robby the seal]], who is voiced by Creator/BrianneSiddall. The sequels play this fully straight, where Brianne Siddall now voices Lars and Robby is now voiced by Creator/LaraJillMiller. In the German and German versions of the movies, [[ChildrenVoicingChildren both characters are voiced by actual children]].

* In the ''VideoGame/{{Pico}}'' animation "[[Grassy Knoll]]", Pico and Darnell are both voiced by [[https://cootiegirl.newgrounds.com/ CootieGirl]].

** The French Canadian dub has Wembley voiced by a female actress (more specifically, Johanne Léveillé, best known for voicing [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Bart Simpson]]).

** In the special The Search for Grog, Creator/LiamOBrien plays the female high-elf cleric Lieve'tel Toluse, a servant of the Raven Queen. Vax is not avalible [spoiler: because he became the champion of the Raven Queen and AscendedToAHigherPlane.]]
