As noted, superhero costumes originally take inspiration from athletic wear, and women's athletic wear ''does'' tend to show more skin than men's, due to differing fashion norms between the gender identities. Generally speaking, many women ''are'' more comfortable showing off skin than men often are, and when it comes to athletics, this has an advantage of providing more room for their skin to breathe during physical activity, is less restrictive and causes less chafing, and also provides less to be grabbed during a fight.

* In an episode of ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'', Klaus makes a joke about [[BlackVikings black Germans as though they're an entirely fictitious thing]]. In real life, there have been black people in Germany for century and half. Like many other European countries, Germany's history of Colonialism means that there are many descendants of slaves and African immigrants still living there. In more modern days African American soldiers have had children with Germans as have "guest workers" in both east and west and immigrants from "socialist brother countries" to the GDR. Any major German city will have quite a number of black Germans, if less than in the US

In reality, diphtheria actually ''does'' cause a cough because of the toxins and fluid filling the lungs.
** The death toll is also sometimes thought to have been greatly reduced for the sake of making it kid-friendly. In reality, the majority of the kids ''did'' survive thanks to the dog sled teams delivering the serum in time; the actual death toll is uncertain (especially since the native population didn't report all their deaths), but it may have been as few as six or seven in Nome.
** Also, some people say that there was no way that little Rosy [[spoiler:could have still been alive as the grandmother in the live-action framing scenes]], because the serum run was so long ago. Actually, it was in ''1925'' - when the movie was done in the 90s, a person could have easily still been alive, as she would have been in her 80s-90s.

* One of the oft-cited "absurdities" of George Miller's ''WesternAnimation/HappyFeet'' is that the main character somehow ends up far out his region, washed ashore and stranded. This has happened more than a few times, the most recent and talked about being the African Penguin who ended up a world away, and the King Penguin who'd somehow spirited himself beyond the Falklands.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'', the streetcars in the movie show the driver holding a steering wheel. Streetcars run on rails and cannot turn freely like a bus. Given that the other details of the streetcars are portrayed as realistically as possible, the presence of steering wheels in this case is probably because having buttons instead (as is actually the case for streetcars) would look out of place for a vehicle on the road that seems more similar to a bus than a train.
