Any scenario where a character dresses as a member of the opposite gender for purposes of disguise. In many cases, this results in Incredibly Conspicuous Drag; for example, if the character in question is a man, his square jaw and broad shoulders will make him look like an Amazon at best or a guy in a kitschy Halloween costume at worst... but it's still good enough to fool others most of the time. He may have the right body type and facial structure to look genuinely attractive as a woman, but Attractive Bent-Gender is likely to come into play in either case. Frequently, but not invariably, Played for Laughs, though this may lead to some Values Dissonance as making fun of gender non-conforming people becomes less acceptable. If the character is a man dressing as a woman, this trope will often result in An Aesop about walking a mile in women's shoes. Subtrope of Crossdresser. If the character wears opposite-gender disguises more often than seems strictly necessary and/or seems to like it to some degree, then they also qualifies as a Wholesome Crossdresser or Creepy Crossdresser depending on the character. Not to be confused with Dragged into Drag, though they may overlap if the subject is unwillingly forced into the disguise, whether by others or by circumstance. Sweet Polly Oliver is the Distaff Counterpart of this trope but is more likely to be Played for Drama. Harmless Lady Disguise is a subtrope, as is Hiding in a Hijab. |

At one point in Super Mario Adventures, Luigi disguises himself as Princess Peach in order to distract the Koopalings, leaving Peach dressed in Luigi's clothes. He uses a surgical mask to hide his mustache, which is convenient as he explains he has a cold (which also explains why "her" voice sounds broken). | |

Played with in the Hivefled prequel Reprise: Gamzee escapes from the Grand Highblood's torture chamber and manages to pass unnoticed through the ship while wearing clothes he stole from a female recruit. The male and female subjugglator uniforms don't look different enough for this to really be an example externally, but since a small but painful part of the mental torture inflicted on him involved mockery of his effeminate qualities, it's really not helping his trauma. | |

The Mighty Thor has a story that adapts the Thrymskvitha poem. This means that, yes, Thor has to dress in a pink wedding gown and pose as Thyrm's bride-to-be while Loki bends over backward explaining why "Freyja" is 7 feet tall and just as broad across the shoulders. At least he didn't have to explain away a beard in this version. | |

Ranma ½: Uky� is a cross-dresser herself, and that's probably the reason why she attracts cross-dressers. Both of her love interests (other than Ranma), Tsubasa and Konatsu, look very convincing as girls because they've already got feminine features. Thanks to his parents, Konatsu the "Cindrella boy" is actually more beautiful than his step-mother and step-sisters could ever be (and what was his late father thinking?). In order to distract the Orochi, a giant pervert who loves girls (to look at as much as to eat), Ranma, Ry�ga, Shinnosuke, and Shinnosuke's Grandpa crossdress (namely, a schoolgirl, a nurse, a policewoman, and a bride). The funniest part is that Ranma does this as a man (had he done it as a woman, the Orochi would've made a beeline for her). |

Rose of the Prophet: Mathew gets repeatedly mistaken for a woman and then forced to dress as one, which then becomes a disguise. This endangers his life later, since he's accused of attempting to seduce a man this way, which is a capital crime (but poor Mathew intended no such thing-he's actually asexual). | |

In the Get Backers manga, this is one of Ban's *ahem* genius plans to try to get them into a prison. He has both him and Ginji dress in schoolgirl uniforms and try to pretend that they're on a field trip and want to visit the prison. It doesn't work. Though they actually do look quite cute in it... | |

A stock disguise and diversion in the TaleSpin universe, to the point it might overlap with Wholesome Crossdresser: In the episode "Feminine Air", Baloo dresses as a woman because he wants to take part in a flying competition, but the last sponsor taking any applicants only accepts women. He also gets paired with his female boss as a navigator and has to fool her throughout the episode. Which he doesn't; at the end, he learns that she recognized him all along. In "A Spy in the Ointment", Baloo has to dress up as part of a gypsy performance troupe (and only complains about having to wear uncomfortable boots as opposed to anything else). At one point during "For Whom the Bell Klangs", Louie dresses up as a belly dancer as a distraction. In "Flying Dupes", Baloo disguises himself and Sgt. Dunder as showgirls after forwarding the clock at Ivan's bar to 3:00, as he is tasked with delivering a package to the Thembrian High Marshall by 3:00 (unaware that the package contains a bomb), and Col. Spigot refuses to leave Ivan's until after 3:00 when the showgirls perform. |

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild has Gerudo Town, a town where only women are allowed to visit. To get inside, Link has to dress up in the same garb as the Gerudos. The person who sells him the clothes finds Link very adorable after the clothing change and it helps that Link is already a pretty boy by default. Though for many players it's more of an alternate costume than a disguise. if not something more |

Radio Enfer: During the Halloween Episode, the members of the radio crew have to disguise as each other. Carl is the one forced to dress like Maria, much to his displeasure. Another episode has Jean-Lou putting on a dress to participate in a personality contest. Although in this case, he had no idea that only girls were allowed to participate until being told by Carl. One episode has Carl and Vincent do that to infiltrate a girls-only reunion. Jean-David and Germain do this in order to help out with Maria's new job at a fashion boutique by pretending to be customers. |

In Some Like It Hot, Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis play small-time jazz musicians who end up accidentally witnessing the St. Valentine's Day Massacre, which puts them in danger from the mob. They have to get out of town as quickly as possible, but the only train leaving town any time soon is transporting an all-woman jazz band. Jack and Tony dress up as women in order to join the band and board the train to Florida, and hilarity ensues. | |

Great Teacher Onizuka: Onizuka dresses as a Joshikousei to infiltrate Anko and her friends' karaoke party. They see through it pretty quickly, but not in time to escape their punishment for bullying Noboru. When Teshigawara kidnaps Fuyutsuki, Onizuka puts on a wig and the wedding dress that he'd put on her, and lies in wait, sitting on the bed facing away from him. Teshigawara doesn't realize who it is until he gets close enough for Onizuka to clobber him. Onizuka does this again in Shonan 14 Days, when he even more unbelievably impersonates a teenage girl (Sakurako) to beat up her father when he tries to molest her. The father does notice Onizuka's shoulders are unusually broad for a girl, but not in time to avoid an ass-kicking. |

The actual gender of Jazzpunk's protagonist Polyblank is not elaborated on in-game, but the live-action teaser trailer features a man. In the third mission, you have to disguise yourself with a wig and lipstick in order to cozy up to an enemy agent and then covertly switch out his briefcase with a dummy. The agent seems quite taken with disguised-you, but it turns out to be an act; he's onto you and has you drugged and dumped in an unoccupied hotel room, sans briefcase. | |

This was based on testimony from Lowe and Daniel Buckley (the young man from steerage who pretended to be a woman).

Notably, in his first appearance, he spent most of his time disguised as a female scientist; the only time his cover came close to being blown before he revealed himself was when Brock actively stopped himself from flirting with "her", much to everyone's confusion. | |

Then makes his epic reveal when his real gender is shown. It works because of his Bishōnen looks, and he's been trying to find a man with seven scars on his chest (who was revealed to be Jagi, Kenshiro's evil brother who was framing and impersonating him). | |

Tales of Vesperia features a chance to do this. When the need arises to seduce your way past a guard, Yuri is given the choice of two of his female party members (Estelle or Judith) or forcing young boy Karol into a pretty pink dress and bow. Worth noting is that using "feminine wiles" on the guard was Karol's idea in the first place, making this perhaps a Karmic punishment. Making things even better, all three of the outfits become purchasable costumes later on in the game, meaning that you can have Karol be wearing his dress whenever you feel like it. Tales of Graces has this when the party performs a play version of Snow White in Velanik. For some reason, the role of the Evil Queen doesn't go to Pascal or Sophie...but to Hubert. Of course he's completely unwilling and a rather stiff actor. The "disguise" part comes in when a man in the crowd recognizes Hubert as Strahta's top Lieutenant. In order to protect his identity, Hubert goes full-bore Large Ham, complete with squeaky feminine voice, and the spectator concludes that no respectable officer would be caught dead crossdressing on stage. |

In Date A Live Shido has to seal, Miku a spirit who Does Not Like Men and has a controlling voice, and the only way to do that is to make her fall in love with him then kiss her. In order to do this, he disguises himself as Shiori, then tries to do just that. While Miku doesn't see through his disguise until the climax (with an unintentional Crotch-Grab Sex Check), it doesn't work out, and he only convinces her to let her powers be sealed after she sees him rescue Tohka from her inversion. | |

Happens to Tieria in Mobile Suit Gundam 00, when he must infiltrate a high-class party. The thing is, he's androgynous enough to pull it off; anyone who didn't know his true sex would be utterly fooled. He rationalizes it as a good disguise because all Gundam Meisters are known to be male, but Wang Liu Mei (and the viewers) guesses that Sumeragi was having a bit of fun at his expense. | |

Escaping from prison disguised as a washerwoman is briefly mentioned in three books: In The Last Continent, Rincewind is going through all the standard escape tropes with a Genre Savvy guard and is disappointed to learn the washerwoman is said guard's mum. In The Last Hero, Contractually Genre Blind Evil Harry Dread has a jailer who's described as letting a bearded washerwoman in Incredibly Conspicuous Drag out of the cell without a second thought. And in Raising Steam, reformed conman Moist recalls visiting Quirm in a variety of different disguises, and once as a different sex. A footnote adds that the jailers didn't figure out how he escaped until they realised the laundry never came back. | |

Geronimo realizes he can use the same trick to get the newspaper back, and then he and his sister notice their cousin Trap is nearly identical to his Arch Rival except for two things: they have different color fur, and oh yeah, Trap is male and the Arch Rival, Sally, is female. After a day at the salon, Trap becomes the spitting image of Sally, and after a night of watching footage, he's able to mimic her voice flawlessly. | |

In Final Fantasy VII, Cloud dresses up as a woman to infiltrate a harem. Depending on your choices in finding components for his disguise, he may be deemed more attractive than the two actual female party members with him. It's also worth noting that, even without the best and sexiest components for his disguise, he's still deemed attractive enough for all of the Don's lackeys to want to bang him. The remake has him get picked regardless of how well he gets his dress, and he doesn't even bother to change his voice at all. | |

In the first game of the Galaxy Angel II trilogy, Kazuya is forced to crossdress as a maid named "Katherine" if players choose to pursue Natsume Izayoi in the later installments. This is the only on-screen appearance of this trope in regards to Kazuya, who was often forced to crossdress previously at a cafe he worked at before joining the Rune Angels. He's lucky Lily knows a technique that quickly negates a curse from a fruit he consumed on Sprite during the events of the trilogy's third game, which she deploys almost immediately (again in Natsume's route, whereas it takes an Emblem Frame malfunction for Lily to use this on Anise in the redhead's own route as there it's Anise who consumed the fruit in question and not Kazuya). | |

Mazinger Z: Done by — of all people! — Baron Ashura at least twice (in episodes 7 and 36). He/she disguised like a woman to manipulate a mob or frighten nosy people away one of his/her operations. Fortunately he/she was a shape-shifter, so it was not so hard looking like a woman how it would be to him/her (on the grounds of Ashura being half-male, half-female). It overlapped with Creepy Crossdresser since it was pretty squicky -and eerie-. | |

In The Order of the Stick, Roy gets turned into a woman by a girdle of masculinity/femininity, and must fend off the amorous advances of his fellow party member Belkar (who knows that it's really Roy and is doing it on purpose just to creep him out). From comic 235, "The lesson here is, if the magic item doesn't specifically SAY it grows hair, it probably doesnt". He uses a mop head as an improvised wig. |

In Jingo, after Fred and Nobby's Dressing as the Enemy scheme falls flat, they steal some costumes from a trio of traveling performers: "Gulli, Gulli, and Betti". Nobby gets stuck playing "Betti", an exotic dancer, and his quite homely appearance is explicitly cited in a footnote as being in a heated battle with the Attractive Bent-Gender trope. The trope loses. No mean feat in a world that runs on tropes the way RoundWorld runs on physics. Nobby actually enjoys his experience, to the point where when he goes on patrol to entrap unlicensed thieves targeting ladies of negotiable affection, he insists on playing the bait — even though he's partnered with Angua, who is not only strikingly beautiful but is tough enough to act as her own backup. | |

My Monster Secret: Ryou Aizawa is a six-inch-tall male alien who pilots a female Mobile-Suit Human, primarily for the purpose of extorting money from the resident Casanova Wannabe. This results in no end of Squick for the characters who are aware of his actual identity. A rare unintentional example occurs in the case of Genjirou Shirigami when he comes to Youko's school to find out if her secret (she's a vampire) has been exposed. Unfortunately, he requested that Akane magically disguise him, and Akane being Akane, she obliged by making the disguise female. |

A major plot element in the first half of ∀ Gundam is that the androgynous male protagonist Loran is known to the public as a girl named "Laura Rolla". Loran dresses the same most of the time, though he may need to switch to a feminine voice and speech, but twice had to get all dolled up for a gala (very convincingly). The idea was concocted by Guin Sard Lineford, who for vague reasons claims it's diplomatically better if the Moonrace believe the White Doll was piloted by a woman. Given Guin was heavily implied to be in love with Loran, and had been calling him "Laura" since they first met, he probably just wanted to see Loran in a dress. Loran goes along because he wants to keep in contact with the Moonrace, which will be impossible if they know he's an enemy pilot. | |

At least two versions of Robin have done this: In Batman #626 (2004), Tim Drake has to disguise himself as female medical student Caroline Hill to obtain samples from a hospital. Alfred explains that Tim is too young to pull off a male med student. Tim is not happy about it: Tim's not the only Robin to be in drag. Dick Grayson has been disguised as Marie Antoinette, Lulu Belle and Batgirl. Hell, Batman himself got into the act in Batman #266 (1975). Behold: Bertha Carrington-Bridgewater, in all her splendour. |

"Cuckoo in the Nest" from Tammy. It was a unique entry in girl's comics, as the main character was a boy who had to pose as a girl (his name was Leslie, but his aunt thought he was a girl named "Lesley", and the money his uncle used to spoil him was to be used pay on school fees at a girl's school, so when the uncle learned that the aunt was going to visit Leslie at the end of term, he had to enroll Leslie at the school and make him pose as a girl for the entire school year or go to prison). | |

Slayers: The heroes have to go to a Holy City where priestesses are trained and all permanent residents are female. They get involved with the ruler's child who does not want to be a priestess and is in fact male and forced to crossdress by his overbearing mother. At the end, it is revealed that the "all-female community" is in fact fifty percent male. Gourry also has to disguise himself as a woman in a couple other episodes (always episode 17 of the season). Only Evolution-R averts this tradition, being a Bizarro Episode instead. |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998): "Powerpuff Bluff": A trio of hulking convicts come up with the idea of dressing up like the girls to go on a crime spree unhindered — and it works! They look through their prison cell wondering how they can pull it off — the camera pans from bunks chained to the wall, a toilet, a locker with three Powerpuff Girl costumes... "Slumbering with the Enemy": Mojo Jojo disguises himself as a girl named Mojesha as part of his plan to destroy the girls at a Slumber Party they host. "Film Flam": A director comes to town wanting to make a movie about the Powerpuff Girls. Professor Utonium realizes something is up and goes to foil his plans, dressing in drag in order to do so. At the end of the episode, the Narrator laments how the Professor in drag looks just like his mom. |

In A Brother's Price a male character disguises as a female prostitute. However, as men are rare in the setting, female prostitutes try to look like men, to appeal to their female customers, most of whom consider themselves heterosexual. Which means that he is a man, who disguises himself as a woman, who disguises himself as a man. Due to the gender roles in that setting, the appearance he is ultimately described as having is somewhat Drag Queen like. | |

Mob Psycho 100: In one chapter, Mob and Reigen have to sneak into an all-girls school disguised as students to meet with some clients. Mob is rather embarrassed about the whole thing, especially when the security guards see right through Reigen's disguise but not his. | |

In a manga-only part of Fushigi Yuugi (and a series of short segments after some of the anime OAVs), the Suzaku warriors wash up on the shores of a matriarchal society after shipwrecking, and are forced to pass as women. Played for high hilarity when Gentle Giant Mitsukake reveals himself as a woman, only for it to be digitally pixelated out because it's too horrible to look at. More hilarity is mined when Chichiri turns himself into an adorably gorgeous young woman, prompting a jealous reaction from Nuriko, who's been crossdressing since the beginning of the series and is horrified that someone might make a prettier woman than him. | |

Farscape Played for Laughs in "Coup by Clam", where John Crichton and Rigel dress as women in order to infiltrate a brothel. Crichton gets hit on by a government thug who, in an interesting subversion, already knows that he's a man dressed as a woman as he'd seen Crichton earlier. Also, Rygel doesn't bother to shave his beard (perhaps female Hynerians have facial hair as well) and appears to be wearing a wedding dress. "Different Destinations" had it go horribly wrong when Crichton tried to smuggle a captured general out of the defender's camp in woman's clothing so he could negotiate a ceasefire. They get caught and the general is shot by a fanatical defender. His army then finds the body dressed like one of the enemy's women and conclude it was a deliberate insult, scuttling any chance for peace. |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Sokka dons the uniform of a Kyoshi Warrior in an early episode. Suki manages to talk Sokka into feeling pretty good about it... until Aang strolls by and compliments him on his "nice dress". Made even funnier when you consider Aang's comment earlier in the episode: Little did Aang know that he'd be stuck putting on the "nice dress" of the founder of the Kyoshi Warriors only a few scant months later. And then vamping in it. Sokka, at least, never quite lives it down. From a speech explaining his history with the Avatar in front of the entire Black Sun invasion army: |

Used (somehow) completely straight in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, where Quark has to undergo surgery to become a woman in order to impress someone who can restore an ally of his to power. Every aspect of this trope is invoked, so much so that even his brother finds him attractive, plus the actual subject of the ruse. This is partially justified because obviously Ferengi have different standards of beauty than humans and it's possible that Quark might be an attractive one after all. And yes, the "crossdressing" does require surgery, but this is Star Trek, where apparently any disguise is done with extensive surgery. On the other hand, since this is Star Trek, "extensive surgery" equates to waving a coloured bulb over the patient's stomach. |

And yes, the "crossdressing" does require surgery, but this is Star Trek, where apparently any disguise is done with extensive surgery. On the other hand, since this is Star Trek, "extensive surgery" equates to waving a coloured bulb over the patient's stomach. | |

Super Mario Bros.: Luigi has done this in the Mario RPGs twice. In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Luigi was dressed as Peach to get near Fawful and retrieve the Beanstar. He also has done this offscreen in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, where he had to dress as a beautiful maiden (though most of everyone else around him needed Brain Bleach). Prior to this, a comic published in Nintendo Power had him switch clothes with Peach after the Koopalings caught Mario and threatened to kill him unless the just-escaped princess was returned. (Peach proceeded to wear his overalls for the rest of that arc as she led the others in Storming the Castle.) |

Rikishi disguised himself as a woman when Eric Bischoff went looking for a lesbian to hire and send after Stephanie McMahon. Bischoff would later use an old man disguise in 2002 for a Smack Down appearance involving the tag team of Billy and Chuck, which was being portrayed in a similar manner to the earlier plan. | |

In an episode of Hogan's Heroes, Newkirk attends an officer's wives party like this, as he's impersonating a spy whose regular MO is this. Every Allied main but Kinch has cross-dressed at least once—Hogan, Newkirk and LeBeau in "I Look Better in Basic Black", and Carter in "Reverent Kommandant Klink" (that one was for stage purposes, not espionage). Besides the aforementioned officers' wives party, Newkirk gets in drag in at least three or four episodes. |

This happened a couple of times in Saved by the Bell. Screech had to infiltrate the girls' locker room as an old Irish cleaning woman to record their singing.

Marco is reluctant at first but gradually gets into the role of "Princess Marco", to the point where "she" becomes a figurehead of the student rebellion when they overthrow the cruel headmistress, Miss Heinous. Later in the series, “Princess Marco� becomes something of a celebrity in the other dimensions, even having “her� own toy-line of dolls. | |

Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ had Judau and Iino crossdressing in order to infiltrate the base of a gang leader who's trying to form his own harem. Humorously, while Iino gets in easily, Judau gets turned away because he looks downright weird in a dress. A major plot element in the first half of ∀ Gundam is that the androgynous male protagonist Loran is known to the public as a girl named "Laura Rolla". Loran dresses the same most of the time, though he may need to switch to a feminine voice and speech, but twice had to get all dolled up for a gala (very convincingly). The idea was concocted by Guin Sard Lineford, who for vague reasons claims it's diplomatically better if the Moonrace believe the White Doll was piloted by a woman. Given Guin was heavily implied to be in love with Loran, and had been calling him "Laura" since they first met, he probably just wanted to see Loran in a dress. Loran goes along because he wants to keep in contact with the Moonrace, which will be impossible if they know he's an enemy pilot. Happens to Tieria in Mobile Suit Gundam 00, when he must infiltrate a high-class party. The thing is, he's androgynous enough to pull it off; anyone who didn't know his true sex would be utterly fooled. He rationalizes it as a good disguise because all Gundam Meisters are known to be male, but Wang Liu Mei (and the viewers) guesses that Sumeragi was having a bit of fun at his expense. |

My Daemon: In the episode "Impurity of Peace", Kaede and Ichinose sneak Kento into the Peace Organization building by having him pass as a student in the school group having a field trip there that day, further disguising him by having him wear a girl's uniform and hair clip. He has an androgynous enough appearance that it works to get him in, but one of the students notices his discomfort and gets suspicious upon not recognizing "her" from any of their classes, and Kento has to take advantage of a convenient distraction to sneak away and meet up with Kaede, whereupon he changes back to his regular outfit. | |

In Peter Pan (1954), after the rescue of Tiger Lily, Peter leads Captain Hook on a comic, musical chase disguised as a beautiful veiled lady, in the duet "Oh My Mysterious Lady." This scene has no basis in the original play or book, was chiefly added to showcase Mary Martin's operatic voice, and has been cut from several later productions such as those starring Cathy Rigby. | |

This trope does not, as a general rule, apply to Jamie Farr's character, Max Klinger, on M*A*S*H. Klinger merely crossdresses in an attempt to make people think he's crazy, so that he can get a Section 8 psychiatric discharge. However, there are isolated exceptions over the show's long run: Klinger does disguise himself as a woman "for real" in the later-season episodes "Private Finance" and "Taking the Fifth", as well as in an episode of AfterMASH. He also disguised himself as a Korean woman (with a straw hat pulled down over his face) during the episode "Dear Peggy" so he could sneak out of camp. This failed when Colonel Potter recognized him: "Korean women are not noted for hairy knuckles." In one episode, the only way the 4077th crew can help a South Korean deserter is by disguising him as a woman. Who do they go to for advice? Klinger. He looks the man up and down for a second, then says "Size 9, junior miss," and instantly picks the perfect dress for him to wear from his own clothing rack. |

Occurred at least twice on Boy Meets World: In "Chick Like Me", Cory Mathews is convinced to write something more meaningful for the school paper than his usual bad jokes column. After the class begin discussion of "Black Like Me", an account of a white man's experiences disguised as a black man for a week, he decides to disguise himself as a girl so he could discover how different their experience of high school life was from that of a boy. Having failed to become very feminine, Shawn tries to demonstrate how to do it. They end up finding out that Shawn is a Wholesome Crossdresser in the closet but for the purposes of this episode he is Disguised In Drag, even going out on a date with a boy who doesn't know that he's a boy too, for the purposes of research. Since the episode revolved around sexual harassment, it doubled as a Very Special Episode, ending with Shawn getting a date with a girl he liked because she knew that he now knew what it was like to be the "chick" on a date. In "What A Drag!", Jack and Eric dress up as women to avoid the vengeance of a badass who they tried to have arrested. Once again, they turn to Shawn for advice and he provides spot-on tips for crossdressing. By the end, Eric decides to give it a try on a more regular basis, just to "Keep in touch with my feminine side." |

Kyo Kara Maoh!: This is how Yuuri first meets Jozak, whose disguise would have been more convincing if Jozak didn't a) have noticeably larger biceps than most women and b) seem to believe that Sleeves Are for Wimps. Jozak is the only one that does it regularly, but if the characters in general need to go somewhere in disguise, there's about a fifty-fifty chance that at least some of them will be going there in women's clothes. It's that kind of a series. |

Conan Edogawa from Case Closed and Kaitou Kid from Magic Kaito have both shown no issues with disguising themselves as girls when it helps their current plans. The first case that includes Kaitou is both squicky and funny since Kaitou steals Sonoko's mother Tomiko's very expensive black pearl while perfectly disguised as Ran, which strongly implies that he drugged, stripped her and perfectly studied her... er, features so he could pose as her better. Conan himself goes completely red when confronting and unmasking Kaitou, realising the implications of a nude Ran hidden somewhere... Fortunately, Kaitou is polite enough to not steal her gown, only using a similar dress. Played with much later: Kaitou knocks out and strips Sera to disguise himself as her, leaving her Bound and Gagged in her undies... but Sera is such a Bifauxnen and so flatchested that he doesn't notice it's a girl. (To be fair she is wearing boyish underwear and an undershirt at that moment. Sera was also caught in the men's washroom because the women's washroom was full.) Conan later explains everything, Kaitou is all "WTF?!" when told Sera's a girl... and cue to a very pissed off Sera in her undies drop-kicking him in the head. Conan once switched clothes with Ayumi to find some kidnappers (they wanted her to deliver the ransom). |

The earlier Wayans' film Scary Movie uses this for a gross-out gag with the high school sports coach "Ms. Mann", a very muscular guy who is pretending to be a woman so he can get closer to the students. This becomes obvious when Cindy goes to her for advice and sees a set of balls hanging out. (The person who played "him", by the way, is in fact a woman, just one who has obviously been abusing steroids). | |

Captain Qwark, the so-called "superhero" in the Ratchet & Clank series, has a tendency to sneak into places by being disguised... in drag. This is most notable in Up Your Arsenal, and A Crack in Time, where he snuck around Nefarious' Space Station as a Pizza Delivery Woman and "Nurse Shannon", respectively. While his broad shoulders, huge chin, and overall masculine appearance make his disguises very paper thin, he's managed to fool a select few people (namely a taxi driver and Clank of all people.) | |

An episode of Forensic Files had detectives confused about the timeline of a victim's murder—her body was found in her backyard, but multiple witnesses swore that they saw her leaving for work. They eventually learned that her killer had planned the crime so far in advance that after killing her, he dressed in her clothes and donned a wig, thus enabling him to avoid detection and dupe her neighbors into thinking that they'd seen her. | |

Code Geass had three male characters do this in one of the picture tracks. We had Rivalz and Suzaku◊, but also Lelouch◊. In a later one, Lelouch was forced into a bridal dress. This scene was then added into the visual novel game Code Geass: Lost Colors. It was truly hilarious, considering he makes a rather attractive woman. Suzaku does it Lost Colors again as well, though it's not quite as attractive, or convincing. | |

Scooby-Doo examples: Shaggy and Scooby are forced to dress as women in the first episode of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated so the team can search a suspicious location that was hiring female workers. This is despite both Daphne and Velma being on hand to do so themselves, which Shaggy questions. Daphne gives them a simple answer: She and Velma refused to do it. In two of the Scooby-Doo DVD animated movies, Shaggy is dressed as Daphne and Scooby is dressed as Velma. The plot of Scooby-Doo in Arabian Nights centers around Shaggy disguising himself as a harem and then having the Caliph wanting to marry him. Shaggy has to pull a Scheherezade Gambit to get out of the wedding. |

The Due South episode "Some Like It Red" (a Shout-Out to Some Like It Hot, referring to the "red" of Fraser's Mountie dress uniform) has Fraser going undercover as a teacher in a Catholic girls' school. In drag, he bears an uncanny resemblance to Lucy Lawless, so obviously he fits Attractive Bent-Gender as well. The most interesting point is that the actor, Paul Gross, managed to portray a lot of feminine mannerisms in addition to wearing the disguise itself. Straight and gay fans of both genders have confessed to confused feelings for "Ms Fraser". | |

Set on Halloween, a robber disguises himself as Granny after she had recently visited a grocery store for treats to give out to trick-or-treaters, and he would rob the same store after the fact, prompting a pursuit by incompetent policemen Porky and Daffy as they try to arrest either of the two. Granny becomes aggravated with what's going on, thinking the robber and the two cops were kids in costumes. | |

In The Boondock Saints, the character played by (not exactly feminine in any sense of the word) Willem Dafoe sneaks into a mobster household by putting on a wig and a dress. Despite the disguise being horribly unconvincing, the first man he meets nearly jumps on him. Subverted in that he appears too prepared for the role, too eager to engage in it, and too good at slipping into the character. He's never explicitly stated to be a Crossdresser, but he's certainly not the wholesome type, as evidenced by a discretionary cut when the flirtation with the mooks seem to be going to another level. | |

Saturday Night Live mines a lot of comedy from this vein. In one digital short, Keenan Thompson (a rotund black man) plays Reba McEntire (not a rotund black man). For the first verse or so, the gag is a fairly simple crossdressing bit. Around the start of the second verse, however, Thompson reveals that, in the skit, he actually is a man dressed as a woman (he does this by bluntly saying "And a penis!" when Andy Samberg sings about all of "Reba's" great attributes). Thompson spends the rest of the song explaining that he found a red wig in a dumpster and Samberg confused him with Reba. He says all of this with Andy standing right next to him. Andy doesn't seem to hear. | |

Tales of Graces has this when the party performs a play version of Snow White in Velanik. For some reason, the role of the Evil Queen doesn't go to Pascal or Sophie...but to Hubert. Of course he's completely unwilling and a rather stiff actor. The "disguise" part comes in when a man in the crowd recognizes Hubert as Strahta's top Lieutenant. In order to protect his identity, Hubert goes full-bore Large Ham, complete with squeaky feminine voice, and the spectator concludes that no respectable officer would be caught dead crossdressing on stage. | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: "Rarity Investigates!": Wind Rider disguises himself as a mare in an attempt to frame Rainbow Dash for a crime. "Brotherhooves Social": Big Macintosh disguises himself as a mare so that he can compete in the Sisterhooves Social events with his little sister. His disguise fools exactly one person. He ends up getting disqualified, not because of the drag (the judges knew it was him and didn't care), but because of his unsportsmanlike conduct during the race. |

The Saga of Tuck opens with Tuck dressing as a girl for Halloween; the irony of this only becomes apparent later. Tuck soon befriends a large number of his girlfriend's friends, but must keep crossdressing since their parents only trust him because they believe that he's a girl. Then it turns out that a lot of them, his girlfriend included, prefer his female persona. Then he gets a job as a babysitter from a woman who thinks he's a girl. Eventually, he actually finds out that he's a late-blooming hermaphrodite, which is the reason he has started being called "miss" even when he's not crossdressing. | |

Klinger does disguise himself as a woman "for real" in the later-season episodes "Private Finance" and "Taking the Fifth", as well as in an episode of AfterMASH. He also disguised himself as a Korean woman (with a straw hat pulled down over his face) during the episode "Dear Peggy" so he could sneak out of camp. This failed when Colonel Potter recognized him: "Korean women are not noted for hairy knuckles." | |

Pokémon: The Series: In Pokémon: The Original Series, Ash had to disguise himself as a girl to gain access into the Celedon City Gym, as he had offended Erika, the Gym Leader, earlier in the episode. It went on to become a Running Gag Once a Season, though usually it's not a disguise. In Pokémon the Series: Black & White, Ash, Pikachu, and Cilan had to crossdress in order to get into an all-girls club. Iris (the only actual girl of the group at this point in time) instigated it. The aforementioned Running Gag reversed itself in one episode of Pokémon the Series: XY when it's Serena who has to masquerade as Ash while he's incapacitated. If Team Rocket uses a disguise that involves a female and a male role, James will almost always dress as the female. (And very lovely he looks too.) Logically, then, this also applies to Jessie, who has dressed as a man on several occasions (though she doesn't seem to crossdress as much as James does.) They've mostly stopped crossdressing since Johto, but it will sometimes pop up (such as one case in Sinnoh where James had to use Jessie's contest disguise for a similar reason as to Serena's case listed above). In Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire, minor recurring villain Brodie is a Master of Disguise, and he's able to pretend to be people of either gender with ease. Notably, in his first appearance, he spent most of his time disguised as a female scientist; the only time his cover came close to being blown before he revealed himself was when Brock actively stopped himself from flirting with "her", much to everyone's confusion. |

The guys from Top Gear did this using Syrian-style burqas during the Middle East Special because the current political situation meant that having it be known they'd gone from Syria to Israel even after passing through Jordan might cause them to be denied entry.

Zenitsu is the one who stands out the most due to circumstances forcing him to go throughout the entire event dressed like a girl, while everyone else eventually broke off the disguise during the nerve-wracking fight against the demons. | |

South Park examples: Mercilessly parodied in "Butter's Bottom Bitch". The police chief dresses as a female whore as part of a sting operation. At least half a dozen guys fall for this, but the police chief takes the operation a step further and actually HAS SEX with the men looking to solicit prostitution. The police chief takes it ANOTHER step further and actually gets married. To his pimp. Played more or less straight in "Marjorine". The boys discover the girls with a cooty-catcher and believe it to be a future-telling device. In order to steal it, they force Butters to fake his own suicide, dress up as a girl and infiltrate the girls' slumber party. |

Harris, after reluctantly shaving off his mustache, dolled himself up in characteristic style and was fairly attractive. |

Through obvious means he gets him to confess, but the undercover cop staying at his house dismisses it due to the obvious legal matters. Best friend Bubba manages to successfully bust the crook by cross-dressing, winning the thousand-dollar reward Fred and even Lamont were desperate for. | |

Red Dead Redemption 2: The provocative French artist Charles Châtenay goes undercover in incredibly unconvincing drag — the chest hair and beard are a bit of a giveaway — to flee town when his paintings prove too avant-garde for the 19th-Century Wild West. Somehow, he still attracts a few men's interest... until they get closer. | |

Dillon, the title character of Sticky Dilly Buns, is a Camp Gay actor with a gift for cross-dressing (as was previously illustrated when he was a secondary character in Ménage à 3; some readers found him quite unnervingly attractive). He uses this for disguise at least once — but then, the Rule of Funny ensures that he meets at least a couple of people who know him well enough to see through the disguise instantly. | |

Looney Tunes: It's easier to name every short where Bugs Bunny doesn't dress as a female to deceive Elmer Fudd, who becomes instantly smitten with the disguised Bugs. Rabbit of Seville: Played particularly weirdly. The climactic battle between Elmer and Bugs degenerates into them alternating chasing each other with more and more deadly weapons...until Bugs abruptly comes up with a series of courting gifts (flowers, chocolates, and so forth, finishing with a diamond ring) and Elmer runs off and comes back in a wedding dress. Corn On The Cop: A non-Bugs Bunny example occurs. Set on Halloween, a robber disguises himself as Granny after she had recently visited a grocery store for treats to give out to trick-or-treaters, and he would rob the same store after the fact, prompting a pursuit by incompetent policemen Porky and Daffy as they try to arrest either of the two. Granny becomes aggravated with what's going on, thinking the robber and the two cops were kids in costumes. "Daffy's Southern Exposure": A wolf and weasel who are sick of having nothing to eat but canned beans try and capture Daffy and fatten him up for dinner while disguised as harmless old ladies. The Looney Tunes Show: Invoked again in an episode where Bugs disguises himself as "Viola Bunny" his "sister" moving to Albania, all as a ploy to avoid going to a peach festival with Porky. Later subverted when he's detained at the Albanian airport for not having a matching passport. |

The Olsen-banden series and its Norwegian & Swedish Foreign Remakes feature this trope a few times, justified by the protagonists' penchant for using disguises in general to aid in their heists: Kjeld dresses up as a maid in Olsen-banden pÃ¥ spanden, introducing himself as "the young girl who cleans the room". Egon takes on the role of a maid (naturally called "Egonne") at one point in Olsen-banden over alle bjerge. Egon's counterpart from the Swedish adaptions (coincidentally nicknamed the traditionally female name "Sickan" by his compatriots) does this thrice in total: In Jönssonligan fÃ¥r guldfeber, his henchman Vanheden suggests that Sickan should "be a madame" so they can distract their mark better. Sickan starts out vehemently opposing the idea, but changes his mind when Vanheden tells him he has the legs and height to pull it off. Due to his lack of fitting clothes and inexperience with makeup (which Vanheden had to help him with after he tried to paint his glasses with mascara), it's implied that the disguise only worked due to the mark's poor eyesight. In Jönssonligan pÃ¥ Mallorca, both Sickan and Harry dress up as old ladies when scouting another mark's house. While Sickan manages to pull it off well enough this time that Harry's partner Doris gets tricked by it later, "Harriet" doesn't even bother with any Larynx Dissonance. Finally, Sickan dresses up as an old (supposedly German) woman again in the licensed game Jönssonligan: Jakten pÃ¥ Mjölner while trying to pass through his nemesis' outdoor party unrecognised. Despite Doris falling for it the last time, she is the only NPC to see through the disguise this time — and the only one to complain about it if you interact with her. |

Used quite often in The Three Stooges. Especially blatant in these cases because most of the Stooges not only have very obviously male faces but are... well, exceptionally ugly, even as men. Also, Curly, the largest Stooge, is the one who most frequently has to do this. In fact, in one episode, Curly dresses up as a female Native American to fool a French hunter, who actually goes so far as to marry this "fat Indian momma" and take him/her to his bedroom. Hilarity ensued, although the disguise was revealed before anything truly unfortunate could happen. | |

Black Cat: Train has this happen to him in the anime. Also coupled with him turning into a cute little boy (due to being shot with a Lucifer bullet). Due to him shrinking in size, no one else except Eve has clothes his size - so he ends up having to wear her dress temporarily. The saddest part? He looked damn good in it. And Sven◊, also in the anime. Y'see, they needed bait to lure out a Serial Killer who preferred to target women, and Sven's chivalrous attitude just wouldn't allow him to let Eve do it, so... Averted in the manga, where he did let Eve do it, reluctantly. |

In another episode the family is forced to live in Texas thanks to the population of Quahog believing Stewie is possessed. Stewie ends up competing in a child beauty pageant. |

Harukanaru Toki no Naka de - Hachiyou Shou has an episode where the main group is trying to help a young couple and comes up with a plan that involves impersonating them. When the option of Akane playing the role of the girl gets rejected for being dangerous, Eisen suggests that one of the Hachiyou could dress as a woman... and everyone immediately agrees that he is perfect for this task. (Eisen should have accounted for the fact that he is pretty enough to pass as a girl without much effort; the man they were trying to fool even offers "her" to become his wife upon discovering that "she" is not the princess he was searching for, but a different girl...) | |

In Dr. STONE, the Treasure Island arc sees the heroes finding an island ruled by an Evil Chancellor who possesses the device that petrified humanity and ally themselves with Amaryllis, a young woman who planned on infiltrating the chancellor's "harem selection" so she could it. After deciding to have Kohaku go along, Amaryllis points out that having more "girls" would increase their chances, so they try disguising the men present; Senku's voice is too deep, Gen can affect a decent feminine voice but is too tall, and Soyuz is right out because he's too tall, muscular, and bald. The only guy who can pull it off is Ginro, who effectively has to be dragged kicking and screaming the whole way. | |

In the novel God Stalk, the protagonist (Jaime Kinslayer) was saved/adopted by a soft-hearted innkeeper named Tubain; while living at the inn, she occasionally heard Tubain being berated for his generous impulses behind closed doors by his wife Abernia, who never left her rooms. Not until the story is nearly over does Jaime learn Abernia's secret: She's Tubain in drag, yelling at himself. | |

The Cat Who... Series: One of the plotters in book #17 (The Cat Who Blew the Whistle) is revealed to be a man who had been masquerading as a woman. His name is Lionel, but he went by Lionella, or just Nella for short, in his disguise. Discussed, but not actually done, in book #22 (The Cat Who Robbed a Bank). While he's discussing ways to secretly observe Delacamp's meeting with the ladies of Moose County to look over their jewelry, Qwill suggests sneaking in as a member of the wait staff; when told they're all young women dressed as French maids, he half-jokingly says that "If it weren't for my moustache, I could go in drag.", which earns a lot of laughs from his companions. |

In The Birdcage, this trope is used two different times by several characters. The first instance happens when Nathan Lane's character dressed up as the housewife of his gay lover, played by Robin Williams, in order to impress their future daughter-in-law's ultraconservative parents. In the ending, Everyone except Robin Williams's character and son (and the senator's wife and daughter, who engage in Recursive Crossdressing) dress up in drag in order to escape from the paparazzi. The Birdcage is an Americanized remake of the French theatrical (and later film) comedy La Cage aux folles, which features the same trope. |

Pee-wee's Big Adventure: Pee-Wee quickly pulls together a drag masquerade while approaching a police roadblock, playing wife to escaped convict Mickey. It's not much of a disguise - just Pee-Wee in a chenille housecoat - but it fools the police and gets a squicky leering gaze from Mickey. Toward movie's end, Pee-Wee also dresses as a nun to sneak onto a movie set and reclaim his bike. | |

Lupin III: Lupin is a Master of Disguise and does this often. Either disguising himself as a female ally (such as Femme Fatale Fujiko), someone the target knows to get close to the loot or to fool security at a venue he's about to hit. It has backfired on him on at least one occasion when the man he was planning on robbing fell in love and proposed. The reveal did not dissuade him. He also wore a Spy Catsuit resembling that of the resident "beta girl" of Lupin III: Island of Assassins in one scene. Goemon, Jigen, and Fujiko (the latter as Lupin himself in at least one case) have also been in cross-gender disguises for jobs, usually most unwillingly. And one volume of the Lupin III Y manga had them all in drag to fool both Zenigata and their target. Zenigata himself has also gotten into the action, in one episode disguising himself as Fujiko, and in Farewell to Nostradamus as a Brazilian carnival girl. In Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine episode 6: Oscar disguises himself as the targeted schoolgirl to trick Fujiko and Lupin. |

Captain America and Paladin engage in one of the least convincing examples ever recorded in Captain America #387-392 (1991) when they have to pass unnoticed through Superia's base filled with female supervillains in order to save Diamondback (who, at the time, was Cap's on-again-off-again girlfriend). They simply borrow Black Mamba and Asp's costumes (which, incidentally, are skintight) and put them on, with no further attempt at disguise (they don't even wear wigs!), trusting that the presence of a number of Brawn Hilda types among Superia's followers will be enough to deflect suspicion. It works! | |
