    Sometimes, a trope has more than one Opposite Trope. This usually happens when a trope is about outside appearances vs. inside actualities or gender roles.

    For this purpose, we can create a Trope Grid for covering the bases. Here are a few.

    But is actually good Saintly Church Dark Is Not Evil [1]
