* "Sonota Ozei Type" ("The Blending-in Type") by Music/Hinatazaka46 is about the singer's realization as she grew older that she wants a man who's not that popular among women but can make her feel safe and comfortable.

Misuse of the page/link (Kinda bummed about this one honestly; OG ver was more witty, but also had an invalidated ver. of Toy Ship)


** In ''Franchise/ToyStory'', Buzz and Jessie share a [[LivingToys quite literal]] ToyShip built on this. In the ending of ''[[WesternAnimation/ToyStory2 2]]'', [[CaptainSpaceDefenderOfEarth Buzz]] awkwardly tries to compliment [[PluckyGirl Jessie]] at the end of the second film, so she [[TheGlomp aggressively glomps]] him and declares "You are the sweetest space toy I've ever met!" In ''[[WesternAnimation/ToyStory3 3]]'' [[spoiler:when the toys are about to be incinerated, Buzz takes her hand and gives her ''[[DyingDeclarationOfLove that look]]''.]]

* Played straight all the way with [[ActionGirl Atan Hadas]] from ''Manhwa/ThreadsOfTime''. She ''despises'' the ruggedly good looking, sociopathic, AxCrazy Sali Tayi, and instead falls desperately in love with the shy, polite {{Bishonen}} protagonist Moon Bin. Especially during that time period, Moon Bin is a ''really'' nice guy.

Added DiffLines:

* ''WebAnimation/AoharuMangaLibrary'': Keiichi's kindness and humility are usually the reasons why the main female (Nagisa, Yui, or Noa) falls for him. The gender inversion also applies in stories where Keiichi starts out as a self-assured, successful man. He has a tendency to ignore the prettier, more extravagant, but more abrasive and arrogant attention-seeking girl and instead goes for the plainer, but more down-to-earth heroine.

* Nana from ''WebVideo/CreamHeroes'' is drawn to [[GentleGiant DD]] after he took an interest in helping her care for her two kittens. She frequently rubs against him and sits with him. DD, the humble cat he is, doesn't seem to mind.

** Ariel from ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 The Little Mermaid]]'' is a quintessential example not just for Disney, but the trope as a whole. The first time she meets her NiceGuy LoveInterest Eric, he’s playing the flute and being sweet to his dog and smiling warmly. She is instantly smitten. When she saves him from the shipwreck (right after he himself saves his dog, no less!), she’s serenading him about how she longs to be by his side. Eric, meanwhile, is sweet and gentle towards her and everyone around him throughout the whole movie.

* A bizarre example appears in ''WebOriginal/{{Serina}}'': Male Godmother Nightsharks evolve into two distinct types, distinguished by how they attract mates: Those that do so violently, and those that do so gently. Naturally, females tend to gravitate towards the latter.
