Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Or putting a grown woman (20s to 30s) on a swing and how that's cute and/or hot. Panty Shot optional, but certainly implied. Even modern examples often imply the woman is reliving her childhood, a good 20 years ago. As the trope's name comes from the slave spiritual song "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot", this is not to be confused with Dirty Harriet, unless it occurs at some very weird strip club... Also has very little to do with Trauma Swing. |

Unsexy variation in 10 Things I Hate About You: Patrick sits Kat down on the swings when she's drunk at the Wild Teen Party and tries to keep her from passing out. She ends up throwing up on him. Later, there's a scene where Kat looks down from her bedroom window to see Bianca sitting on a tire swing, dressed in notably little-girlish clothes, and decides to go to the prom so Bianca can, too. |

Django Unchained has a scene where a young slave woman is swinging on a swing very much in the style of this trope, while other slaves are working and being whipped. It's a bit incongruous and unexplained. | |

Kristina, one of the heroines in Vilhelm Moberg's The Emigrants novels, is fond of swinging and continues to do it in secret even when she's an adult. She first met her husband, Karl Oskar, while recovering from a wounded knee after she fell out of a swing, and interprets it as a sign that God makes bad things happen only so good things can come out of them. The musical adaptation, Kristina från Duvemåla, opens with Kristina on her swing. | |
