Explanation of Conservative Trope

A niche of conservative men harbor irrational distrust of womens' intentions aided by the fact that in Hollywood, women are more often depicted as taking advantage of men for money or favors than the other way around.

Conservative Trope Examples

  • Horrible Bosses (2011)
    Dr. Julia (Jennifer Aniston) sexually harasses her dental assistant Dale (Charlie Day) every chance she gets throughout the entire film. She pressures him into having sex with her on a number of occasions, purposefully sprays water on his crotch and says she can "make out our little friend right there," locks him in her office wearing only her white dental coat and high heels, and even attempts to forcibly have sex with him while his fiancé is unconscious on the exam chair by telling him that "I'm going tell her you f*cked me, Dale. If you don't f*ck me, I'm going to tell her you f*cked me."
  • Liar Liar (1997)
    Miranda (Amanda Donohoe) corners Fletcher (Jim Carey) in her office and forcibly seduces him after dangling a partner role at the firm in front of him.
