Arousal Focus applies to works where visible arousal is the subject or a primary focus and not a passive element. The arousal depicted in arousal focus works is more intentional and obvious.
This doesn't apply to characters while having sex, nor does it apply to solo masturbation or simply being visibly erect without a clear source of arousal.
Typical elements of arousal focus
- Dialogue drawing attention to being or becoming aroused
- Motion lines used to draw attention to signs of arousal (e.g. throbbing penis or clitoris, excited shaking or twitching)
- Visibly becoming erect (especially when shown growing erect throughout two or more panels in a comic) or tenting
- Exaggerated expression and/or blushing to indicate arousal (especially use of <3_eyes)
