History Main / SissyVillain

* Archibald Cunningham from ''RobRoy'', a downright fop who murders people to buy fancy new clothes. He affects a comically mincing façade, but drops the act when he duels to become a vicious and deadly predator.

** Blofeld from the same movie got quite the upgrade in fabulousness, as well. He even got to dabble in [[VillainousCrossdresser VillainousCrossdressing]].

*** I think most of that façade was forced on him by his assistant... Wiggins... who was extremely effeminate. Ratcliffe had his boisterous and rowdy side on occasion, though it was often just an act as well, when his men stood up to him, he folded.

** [[spoiler:Recently he's even become an close (albeit probably temporary) ally of Luffy]].

** Byakuran seems to have traces of this.

* Scar from ''TheLionKing'' is easily the most limp-pawed feline ever to grace the big screen.

** This becomes a ParentalBonus for the Swedish Viewers where Scar is dubbed by the '''Very''' Gay and '''Very''' Out Acor/Singer Richard Wolff. How out is he? He penned a song describing his ComingOutStory titled "Naked Boy, Naked Men." Don't worry, [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFpaxK2PzQI&feature=PlayList&p=CE10045B6766BAEA&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=19 Scar is still awesome.]]

* [[RockADoodle The Grand Duke and his hench-owls]]. [[TheNostalgiaCritic "These are the gayest villains ever!"]]

*** The {{TeamFourStar}} AbridgedSeries averted the SissyVillain trope for Frieza. It was kept in for Zarbon, but now it teeters on SissyVillain and DepravedHomosexual (or Bisexual, since Zarbon said he could "go both ways" in episode 14).

* Park Chang-yi in ''The Good, the Bad and the Weird''.

* Goodness gracious Terry Karrens from Dollhouse is rather effeminate for someone with one hell of a OedipusComplex.

* [[MadScientist Szayel]] [[CompleteMonster Aporro]] [[NightmareFuel Granz]] in ''{{Bleach}}''. Although his sexuality is [[AmbiguouslyGay left ambiguous]] he has [[DudeLooksLikeALady effeminately pretty looks]], [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair shoulder-length pink hair]], is extremely flamboyant, and tends to make lewd, disturbing comments about his opponents. He is also quite sadistic and views others as little more than research material. He also thinks of himself as an actor, especially when toying with/torturing his victims. Not to mention during his first fight with Renji and Ishida his clothes get damaged, leaving him shirtless, and he stops the fight to go change clothes.

* Starscream of ''{{Transformers}}'' moves up and down a Sliding Scale of Girlishness and Childishness depending on the series and translation, but is consistently [[strike: feminine]] bitchy. [[ShesAManInJapan Some have mistakenly made him a girl]], [[OppositeSexClone some have given him a female clone]], some have made him an outright giggling fool and some have even made him a somewhat serious air commander... with a childish attitude and a girlfriend to complain to about how his lord and master mistreats him. Expect every incarnation to be a narrow-waisted, whiny, flighty asshole prone to [[TheStarscream backstabbing]] his lord and master for insults and ambition.

* ''[[StarWarsTheCloneWars StarWars: The Clone Wars]]'' has Jabba the Hutt's uncle, Ziro, whose voice was based on Truman Capote's. OrSoIHeard.

* Both Arthur and Shalott of ''AirGear''. Arthur is a masochist who pelvic thrusts against his male opponent Agito and nibbles on his ear while fighting him. He also has flamboyant mannerisms, speaks in a polite manner, and frequently releases heart marks whenever he's reveling in the feeling of pain. Shalott is a loli who wears a frilly looking dress and drops a bridget on Agito, revealing that he's actually a girly-looking guy who is in a BDSM type relationship with Arthur. The end of chapter 279 has him pin Agito to the ground and straddle him, saying after he tortures him then Agito can "lick it" if he wants.

The SissyVillain is probably the second most common portrayal of [[AcceptableTargets effeminate gay men]] (besides "one-dimensional joke character"), but is not necessarily synonymous with DepravedHomosexual. While {{Sissy Villain}}s are frequently [[DepravedHomosexual gay]] or [[DepravedBisexual bisexual]], most of them are merely [[AmbiguouslyGay sexually ambiguous]] or [[{{Asexuality}} seemingly asexual]], and some of them are straight. The SissyVillain isn't intended to creep out the audience just because of the implication that he might like men (although this usually factors in), but because he acts like a "pansy."

* The page picture is of Cytomander, a minor villain from ''TengenToppaGurrenLagann''. Considering the protagonist's SuperRobot is actually powered by [[HotBlooded MANLY SPIRIT]], it's surprising that he's the only SissyVillain in the series. Of course the good guys also have a very effeminate man on their side too, CampGay mecha lover and all round genius Leeron.
