Tomboy and Girly Girl/Western Animation


 * Adventure Time: Marceline and Princess Bubblegum. Marceline is a punk-rocker Vampire Queen who raises the dead and does what she wants, while Bubblegum is the lady-like ruler of the Candy Kingdom (although, she's also a scientist and Action Girl). The two are also dating.
 * Jeff's mothers in Clarence combine this with being Fat and Skinny. One has Boyish Short Hair and dresses in masculine clothes while the other has long hair and dresses more girly.
 * Ed, Edd n Eddy has Sarah (Tomboy) and Nazz (Girly Girl). Sarah is one of the most powerful female characters, possessing superhuman strength like her brother, and is able to beat up almost every other character (usually the Eds). She is also reckless with a short temper. Nazz, however, is gentle and caring but is seldom seen getting in physical altercations with the other characters. Although there are moments that prove that Nazz can hold her own in a fight, she is usually interested in cheerleading, cooking, cute boys, and makeup.
 * The Loud House: All the Loud sisters have varying degrees of masculinity and femininity, but the most obvious examples are the twins, Lana (who loves dirty things) and Lola (who dresses like a princess). Best exemplified in the episode, "In Tents Debate", where the girly girls (Lori, Leni, Lola, Lucy, and Lily) vote to spend their summer vacation at the beach, while the tomboys (Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lisa, and Lana) vote for an amusement park.
 * Played with at the end of "Cover Girls". Lana is ostracized from her group of tomboy friends for looking like a girly girl in her sister Leni's clothes.
 * Lisa Loud, the mostly emotionally withdrawn, logical, deadpan, unkempt science genius plays the tomboy to her kindergarten friend Darcy Homendollar's girly girl, considering how emotionally sensitive Darcy is and how relatively feminine she dresses (messy hair and a sweater versus a shirt with a flower on it).
 * Aside from her obvious comparison with her pageant loving twin Lola, Lana also has another Girly Girl to play off in the form of her rival Lacey St. Clair in "A Mutt Above", who antagonizes Lana from being so dirty and uncouth.
 * Muppet Babies: Skeeter was created for the cast to be the tomboy to Piggy's girly girl. However, although Skeeter was the athlete and Piggy liked pink and lace and make-up and tea parties, Skeeter was actually rather nice, and Piggy was super strong, super bossy, and super un-ladylike. What can we say? Beware the Nice Ones.
 * The Powerpuff Girls has the Genki Girl Bubbles and the aggressive Buttercup, with Blossom being in between.
 * Steven Universe:
 * Amethyst, a goofy, crude, laid-back slob who acts like a Cool Big Sis to Steven, and Pearl, who is refined, elegant and neat and acts like an overprotective mother towards Steven. It's among many of their foils. Amethyst's complete lack of refinement and Pearl's delicate femininity clash throughout the show; although in a subversion, it's Pearl's insensitivity which eventually brings them to blows.
 * Ruby and Sapphire, in both appearance and action. Ruby is dressed like a martial artist, has Boyish Short Hair and is hot-headed. Sapphire wears a full ballgown with giant poofy sleeves, opera gloves, long hair, and is composed under duress. They are a case of Opposites Attract and their love allows them to create the ultra-stable fusion that is Garnet.
 * Among the humans, there are the Pizza twins - Jenny, a loud rambunctious party girl who hangs out with boys, and Kiki, who is calm, responsible and devoted to her family.
 * Rose Quartz was presented as femininity incarnate; she was empathetic, compassionate to all forms of life, graceful, beautiful, wore a long white dress and huge pink Regal Ringlets, and had a pink rose motif in all her weapons, powers and artifacts. In a particularly dark example, she has a villainous foil with a personal grudge appear as Jasper, a tough, muscular, ruthless and aggressive brute with a disdain for Earth and Social Darwinist views, who has an obsession with, in her words, "beating [Rose Quartz] into the ground." Jasper is also the tomboy to the girly Lapis Lazuli, a waifish Broken Bird with water powers who wears a long skirt and can grow water wings like an angel or fairy. For a while, they get stuck together after Jasper coerces Lapis into fusion, only for Lapis to hijack the fusion and drag them both into the ocean, intending to keep her trapped forever.
 * In general, gems made to serve Yellow Diamond (Peridot, Jasper, Yellow Pearl) are tomboyish to some degree; they're arrogant, rude, assertive, hammy and wear form-fitting suits. Peridot is also a technician/engineer and Jasper is a soldier, jobs that would be considered traditionally male. In contrast, Gems made to serve Blue Diamond (Sapphire, Lapis Lazuli, Blue Pearl) are conventionally feminine, composed, soft-spoken, have a habit of clasping their hands and wear flowing dresses or skirts. Blue Diamond herself is introduced (in a flashback) wearing a cloak and gown and sitting on a throne like a traditional queen, and always speaks calmly even when she's losing her (very short) temper and ordering an execution. Meanwhile, Yellow Diamond has been compared to a businesswoman, wears huge shoulder pads, pants and Power Hair, and isn't as talented at remaining stoic.
