So you have some [[Half-Human Hybrid|Half Human Hybrids]]? What about [[Petting Zoo People]]? [[Rubber Forehead Aliens]]? [[Cute Monster Girl|Cute Monster Girls]]s? Well, be careful. If a character has some form of non-human anatomy (ears, wings, ''especially'' tails), chances are that said physical feature will be... sensitive. Even characters who look mostly human may have erogenous zones in odd areas to establish that they have [[Bizarre Alien Biology]]. For obvious reasons, this leads a lot of [[I Didn't Mean to Turn You On]] type incidents, especially when one party is unaware that the resident [[Catgirl]] gets aroused when someone [[Freud Was Right|strokes her tail.]]

Also [[Rule 34|for obvious reasons]] this leads to a lot of [[Power Perversion Potential]] and [[Fetish Fuel]] when said characters show up in fanfic. If a character does not possess any known Fantastic Arousal, [[Fanon|the fans may create one.]]
 
[[I Thought It Meant|Not to be confused with a character having a strange sexual fetish]]. For example, Milly May Hopkins of [[Gunsmith Cats]] and Nice Holystone of ''[[Baccano!]]'' both have ekrixiphilia, a fetish for explosions and/or gunpowder (which means setting off grenades and shooting guns sexually arouse them), but they are not examples of [['''Fantastic Arousal]]'''.

{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
 
* In one episode of ''[[Ghost in the Shell]]: [[Stand Alone Complex]]'', the team infiltrates a party of wealthy and powerful men who show off their sex-driods. The host goes even further and loves to have sex with full-body cyborgs. While-- while their brains are disconnected from the robotic body and are pretty much in sleep mode. The Major convinces him to plug his implants into her body while he does, but then just knocks him out and lets him experience a virtual simulation of it while she sneaks through his offices.

* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'':
** [[Winged Humanoid]] Setsuna gets flustered when Asuna starts [[But Your Wings Are Beautiful|stroking her wings]].
Line 18:
* The demons from ''[[My Balls]]'' ([[Refuge in Audacity|don't ask]]) have each a tattoo somewhere on their body that are both the focus of their demonic powers, and very sensitive to caresses.
* Lizlet from ''[[Omamori Himari]]'' is a Tsukumogami; to be more precise, she is {{spoiler|the spirit of a 100+ year old teacup. Said teacup}} is also apparently an erogenous zone, judging by her reaction when the title character strokes and licks it in an attempt to wake her up.
* Lala from ''[[To Love LOVE-Ru]]''; again, the tail. Its most common use besides the pictured teasing is [[Scenery Censor|conveniently covering her crotch]]. Naturally, there's a chapter where Rito gets his hand stuck to Lala's tail. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
** Then there was a [//fanfox.net/manga/to_love_ru/v13/c114/13.html scene] with watermelon creature [[Naughty Tentacles|tentacle-wrapping]] her tail...
* In the first episode of ''[[Utawarerumono]]'', Eruru gets annoyed with Hakuoro when he touches her tail. For a second she looks like she really likes it, then seems embarrassed.
* ''[[Yumeria]]'': Tomokazu had a daydream in which Neneko's ears were her "weak spot".
Line 31 ⟶ 32:
* ''[[Dragon Crisis]]'':
** [[Our Werewolves Are Different|Ai]]'s ears and tail are ''very'' sensitive to touch.
** The spot on Rose's back where her wings come out seems quite sensitive, when Ryuji touches her there she blushes and starts trembling. Then there are the scales on the back on Rose's hand.
* ''[[Dog Days]]'' has a basic rewarding treatment for dog-warrior race, patting on his/her head. It's shown through a [[Tsundere]] Eclair as she blushes when her princess pat her, but goes mad when the [[Idiot Hero]] does it.
 
== [[Fan FictionWorks]] ==
 
* The ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'' fic "''Vows"'' had the area between their shoulder blades (where their wings appear) to be an erogenous zone. Keiichi has to take lessons from Peorth to avoid injuring Belldandy (or getting injured)...
== [[Fan Fiction]] ==
{{quote| '''Urd:''' Goddesses are required to attend a sex education course when they declare they intend to have a relationship with a mortal. Otherwise, they might lose themselves in the passion of the act and cause the man's heart to cave in on itself and then explode.}}
* The ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'' fic "Vows" had the area between their shoulder blades (where their wings appear) to be an erogenous zone. Keiichi has to take lessons from Peorth to avoid injuring Belldandy (or getting injured)...
{{quote| '''Urd:''' Goddesses are required to attend a sex education course when they declare they intend to have a relationship with a mortal. Otherwise, they might lose themselves in the passion of the act and cause the man's heart to cave in on itself and then explode.}}
** No need for him to be jealous of ''her'' educators, as "her teachers are all goddesses".
* [[Good Omens|Crowley and Aziraphale]] have a ''huge'' amount of wingfic out there.
** Also halokink.
** This Tropes recalls a rather ... rousing fic where Crowley has a tail. Said tail is very interesting to play with.
* According to [[Fanfic]], Trance Gemini from ''[[Andromeda]]'' has a very sensitive tail.
Line 46:
* There's a lot of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' fanon concerning this, one piece of which is dubiously canonical: in one scene in the [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]], the Doctor gets a back massage. He demonstrates his appreciation via all manner of undignified noises, ''especially'' when his neck is being massaged. Some people have taken this to mean that a [[Human Alien|Time Lord]]'s neck is an erogenous zone.
** Well there must be a reason behind those collars.
** A ''[[Doctor Who]]'' [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3243480/1/Anatomy_of_aliens fanficAnatomy of Aliens]'', a ''[[Doctor Who]]'' fic, [[Incredibly Lame Pun|pokes fun at]] this trope, coupled with [[I Didn't Mean to Turn You On]]. A P.O.'d Rose jabs her finger into an alien captor's chest a few times to emphasize her ranting and the captor immediately lets them go. To Rose's horror, the Doctor explains that that particular species keep their genitals in their chests...
* Comes up in a lot of ''[[Gargoyles]]'' fanfic. [[Fanon]] dictates that the shoulders and middle of the back, between the wings is especially... sensitive. It ranges from "that feels good" to "programmed to have sex with you RIGHT NOW if you keep it up".
** For gargoyles built like Lexington, it may be the place where the wings meet the torso instead.
Line 55:
** Applies to [[Star Trek|Vulcans]] in fanfiction, too.
* In ''[[Touhou]]'' fanworks, many of the [[Petting Zoo People]] girls are subjected to this:
** Ran's tails and ears are commonly played with by an unsuspecting [[Catgirl|Chen]] or by a bored [[Reality Warper|Yukari]], producing interesting reactions, spawning the [[MeMemetic MeMutation|meme]] '' A cat is added'' as a result of a particular piece.
** A gag comic has Nitori inflating [[Giant Spider|Yamame's]] poofy skirt. Gives her quite an interesting expression there...
*** Built-in [[Lampshade Hanging]]: some translations call it "Reaction D: [[Ecchi]]".
** Horns are a common source of this for fans, including Keine in her hakutaku form, Yuugi, and Suika.
Line 75:
* ''[[Bleach]]'' [[Fanon]] does this to the edges of an Arrancar's Hollow Hole.
** And at least one writer has done this to Grimmjow's ears as well.
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|Buffy]]'' fandom frequently suggests that the brow ridges of a vampire's [[Game Face]] are an erogenous zone--andzone—and when they're stroked, vampires ''purr''. This is most frequently invoked with Spike; most other vampires aren't considered as cuddly, except for Angel, who hates being one.
* In every ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' fanfiction in which the Saiyan characters have their tails, said tails will ''always'' bebe—without -- without exception -- majorexception—major erogenous zones. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] in that a Saiyan's tail is ''very'' sensitive, unless the weakness is trained out of it.
** DBZ fanfic writers love to emphasize how the scars where the tails use to be are ''extremely'' erogenous areas.
* At least one ''[[Elfen Lied]]'' Fanfiction has shown that the cat-ear-like horns of the Diclonius are ''quite'' sensitive. May be a [[Justified Trope]] as we see Lucy going into shock or reverting to her more docile "Nyuu" persona anytime her horns are broken off. Then again, who wouldn't go into into shock, or at least suffer agonizing pain if you get part of your skull blown away? That is, if you actually ''survive''.
* In the ''[[Sky High]]'' fanfic "''Stop''," the pyrokinetic [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Warren Peace]]'s hands are erogenous zones due to the special nerves necessary for him to conduct fire. (Although hot - pun unintended - the reader is forced to wonder how that would ''work'', given that that would make him almost constantly turned on, since he has to actually use those hands).
** Considering he is a high-school age male, seems unlikely anyone would notice anything unusual if he were.
{{quote|I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me wanna have sex.|Xander|''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]''}}
* ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]'' fandom has it that pull-strings and wings are erogenous zones.
* ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' fans have run away with the idea of Soul Gem Play (directly applying physical contact to a Soul Gem in order to stimulate the poor Magical Girl the Gem belongs to) after {{spoiler|that scene where Kyubey reveals the literal truth about the [[Soul Jar|Soul Gems]] by making Sayaka feel pain through her own Gem}}.
** In ''[[Magical Girl Noir Quest]]'' Chiaki licks Midori's Soul Gem, which results in Midori having an orgasm.
* ''[[Tron]]'' and ''[[Tron: Legacy]]'' fanon has it that programs' circuits are as sensitive as human genitalia (which programs are often but not always assumed to lack). This is supported by a deleted scene in the original.
* ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanon has applied this to both Pegasus wings and unicorn horns.
* ''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars]]'' fics often make Ahsoka's montrals ''very'' sensitive.
** This could perhaps stem from the canonical explanation that Twi'lek's lekku (their head tendrils) are extremely sensitive to the touch and is often used and/or exploited for sexual purposes. So most would assume any species with such similar features -like Togruta- would follow suit.
* ''[[Naruto]]''s Fanon foes this with his whisker marks on his cheeks.
* In the ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' fanfic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7438305/1/Bases Bases]'', Robin and Starfire have some complications with the physical side of their relationship, because for Star's race (canonicaly feline descended) breasts are neither a special nor an erogenous zone. Scratching her behind the ear, on the other hand...
* In ''[[Mass Effect]]'' fandom, turians and quarians are subject to this (it also doesn't hurt that a turian and quarian are two of the most popular love interests). For turians, fans have run with the idea that their fringes and mandibles are very sensitive to touch. As for quarians in fanfic... [[Up to Eleven|their whole bodies]] are basically erogenous zones, as since they're stuck in their suits for their entire lives, practically any kind of skin-to-skin contact can get them going.
** {{spoiler|[[Mass Effect 2|Sucks to be Garrus, then.]]}}
 
 
== [[Film]] ==
Line 102 ⟶ 103:
== [[Literature]] ==
* ''[[The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy]]'' has Eccentrica Gallumbits, the triple-breasted whore of Eroticon VI.
{{quote| Some people say her erogenous zones start some four miles from her actual body. Ford Prefect disagrees, saying five.}}
* In Robin Hobb's ''Ship of Destiny'', {{spoiler|Malta, as a result of spending a lot of time on the Rain River,}} ends up with a ridge on her forehead which appears to be, basically, a facial clitoris.
* In Robert Jordan's ''[[The Wheel of Time]]'', the catlike ears of Ogier are explicitly stated to be erogenous zones. Exposing them completely is scandalous, and Loial becomes embarrassed after accidentally mentioning his fiancee's.
* In the ''[[Star Wars Expanded Universe]]'', Gotals' horns are both electromagnetic sensors and erogenous zones. The Twi'lek's head-tentacles likewise.
** Given that the Twi'lek language also involves a body language/signing component using the head tentacles, this effectively makes Twi'lek communication the equivalent of a woman waving her breasts at the person she's speaking to in order to communicate her mood.
** In-story they're explained more as being used like arms; there's a [[Starfish Language|specific sign language]] that few people of other species understand, but the major use is gesturing and emphasis. ''[[Tales From JabbasJabba's Palace]]'' has Oola using hers to indicate [[Sarcasm Mode]] and express disbelief without anyone but Threepio knowing it.
* Wings were mentioned for Aliisza from ''[[Forgotten Realms|War of the Spider Queen]]''. But then, she's Alu-fiend ([[Half-Human Hybrid|half]]-[[Succubus]])...
* Apparently ''[[Temeraire]]'s' dragons' tendril-y ruff is like this. Cue very embarrassed Laurence.
* In ''[[The Hollows]]'', when Rachel first moves in with her bisexual vampire co-worker Ivy, she unintentionally does a pile of things that tend to arouse vampires, such as borrowing Ivy's clothes (causing their scents to mix). It's made worse by the fact that Ivy has been trying to avoid drinking blood.
* In the ''[[His Dark Materials]]'' trilogy is it considered taboo to touch the daemon (manifestation of a soul in animal form) of another human being. At the end of the trilogy Will and Lyra accidentally and then deliberately touch each other's daemons, and the subtext couldn't be more obvious.
* [[Sapient Ship]] Daisy Mae (USS Des Moines) in the ''[[Posleen War Series]]'' book Yellow Eyes has a spot directly between her reactors that needs to be scrubbed regularly...
* The section on mermaids in ''[[The Encyclopedia Of Fantasy]]: People of the Light'' uses this as half a solution for the [[Mermaid Problem]], although it's not the tail, it's the hair.
{{quote| Ismael Merindol reveals that mermaids spend so much time combing their hair because it that is their erogenous zone, and a source of incomparable pleasure. He writes: "In my youth I had a mermaid for a lover, but I was unable to give her pleasure in the usual way. However, if I scratched her scalp in a certain way she would very quickly swoon away. For what other women have between their legs, mermaids have in their hair."}}
** This means that all those mermaids you see innocently combing their long tresses are in fact masturbating. [[Squick|Who needs privacy, anyway?]]
 
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* ''[[Alien Nation (TV series)|Alien Nation]]'': The Tenctonese women are aroused by, among other things, certain notes (coincidentally one of them is the TV test card tone), contact with their lower back but as a species their genitals are less of an issue sexually. (They're egg-layers, [[Mister Seahorse|sort of]]-- their—their sex is... [[Bizarre Alien Biology|complicated]].)
** Also, a blow to the armpit has the effect of a [[Groin Attack]] on Tenctonese males.
*** There was a scene in the movie where the human cop had to drag his Tenctonese partner out of danger while holding him under his shoulders; the alien had [[The Modest Orgasm|an unmistakable goofy smile on his face.]]
Line 137 ⟶ 139:
* An episode of ''[[Angel]]'' involved a demon species whose females had bony ridges along the spine that became red hot when they were in heat. The extremely patriarchal males of the species would cut off these ridges to keep their females docile, as sexual arousal was implied to make the women supernaturally strong. Of course, the whole episode was a big aesop about female genital mutilation.
* An episode of ''[[Merlin (TV series)|Merlin]]'' has Arthur react with distinct pleasure when Gwen strokes his recently acquired donkey ears (long story).
* The pilot of ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' had the (female) Cylons' spines glow during sex. This was dropped for the rest of the series, however, as a major plot point early on was how to detect the Cylons among the fleet and was pointed out that Baltar had a Cylon detector in his pants.
* From SNL''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' we have the Coneheads, aliens with, what else? Cone-shaped heads! And they have some sort of game or something where they put a special ring on said cones. And guess what? This game has something to do with sex!
** Used in the film as well, when their daughter tries it out with her (human) boyfriend. Her parents ''freak out'' on walking in on this.
 
Line 151 ⟶ 153:
* In ''[[Planescape: Torment]]'', [[Tsundere|Annah]]'s skin gets hot when she, uh, gets hot.
* In the Old World Blues DLC for ''[[Fallout: New Vegas]]'', Dr. Dala is disturbingly fascinated by your breathing due to the fact that as a [[Brain In a Jar]] she hasn't had a body of her own in centuries. It's even possible to induce [[The Immodest Orgasm]] in her after finding this out.
* In ''[[Star Control]] II'', the Slylandro's "glowy bits" are visible to humans but not to Slylandro; the fact that humans can see them makes at least one Slylandro more . . . stimulated.
{{quote| '''Slylandro''': Ah... your species sees in a different spectrum than we do. We can't see those. As for what they are... erm... well, they're used for... um... [[The Talk|when a male and a female]]... uh, look, can we talk about something else?}}
 
 
Line 159 ⟶ 161:
** [[Ho Yay|Which Secret makes a note of...]]
* The D'Bo sisters from ''[[Our Home Planet]]'' are somewhat of an odd example: Their antennae secrete a protein, that, simply said, at one point causes Rika's finger to have an orgasm. It hasn't been shown yet, but given that the antennae are said to be the most sensitive parts of their biology and that they're their reproductive organs (eww), fiddling with them should have this effect.
* In ''[[Two KindsTwokinds]]'', this trope is probably the reason why the Basitin consider non-bandaged feet obscene.
* For Uryuom in ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' [[The Empath|empathy / limited telepathy]] does [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-10-06 most of the job] (they are androgynous, anyway). It's [[Interspecies Romance|far from being limited to their own species]] and this property is inheritable. The genetic lottery leaves some [[Half-Human Hybrid|Half Human Hybrids]] [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2005-03-28 without] the human form of attraction and others with a combination of both.
* In ''Dangerously Chloe'' Teddy [http://www.dangerouslychloe.com/strips-dc/do_they_retract discovers] that horns of the Succubi are sensitive, thanks to his habit of [[Finger Poke Test|testing things by touching them]] and another succubus trying to impersonate Chloe without being up to ''those'' specs in any part of the figure. [http://www.dangerouslychloe.com/strips-dc/something_suspicious_about_you Before that], he applied the same scientific method #1 to a young angel girl's wing, but it's not clear whether she blushed and slapped him because that was uninvited touching in general or specifically a wing.
 
 
Line 172 ⟶ 175:
== Western Animation ==
* Spoofed in a ''[[Robot Chicken]]'' short; a character wishes for unicorns to be real, after which one appears at his window and takes him away to have "fun adventures"... which include stripping down and polishing his "magic horn".
{{quote| "[[Does This Remind You of Anything?|If you polish a unicorn's horn long enough, it gives you magical unicorn mayonnaise.]][[Squick|That's what I used to make these sandwiches!]]"}}
* When she was freed from her cuffs by Robin in ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'', Starfire pulled him in and kissed him (her alien biology has a power that lets her learn languages through "lip contact"). She didn't know [[Inverted Trope|what a kiss really was on Earth]] at the time, but she later realizes that it means "more... or so [she] has heard."
