==Content and Scope==


To the extent that much of this article is structured like a translation of the Japanese article, this might benefit from a review by someone who has more familiarity with Japanese. For example, I'm just doing quick research, but I noted that the historical section cites the pronunciation of the "half moon" meaning as "hangetsu," while the corresponding section in the Japanese article gives the non-standard pronunciation "haniwari" for those kanji in this context. A closer read may present more opportunities for correction of this kind. [[Special:Contributions/71.191.217.170|71.191.217.170]] ([[User talk:71.191.217.170|talk]]) 23:34, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
I do not feel qualified to edit this article, as I have only a superficial acquaintance with actual manga and anime as opposed to pornographic parodies thereof, but I would like to point out that a good chunk of this short article is about cross-dressing and transformation from one biological sex to another, which are not the same thing as futanari. Including examples in this article confuses the issue.

I have a couple questions about both terminology, and about how to properly edit the article:

1) The article says that the term futanari can refer to both full hermaphrodites with functional male and female genitalia, or to persons with a mix of male and female primary and secondary sexual characteristics. This is certainly the case for western porn sites labeled "futanari"; can someone confirm or deny that this is how the term is used in Japan?

2) The article says that the term "new half" is used in Japan to refer to transwomen; are there other terms commonly used in hentai to make distinctions between fully functional human hermaphrodites vs. other categories of persons outside the gender binary, real or fictional? The use of proper terms could clear up quite a bit of misunderstanding when discussing this topic both here and elsewhere. In particular, a term specifically referring to the former category, strict fully functional hermaphrodites, would be handy.

3) My knowledge of this subject is derived almost entirely from browsing porn sites featuring futanari artwork. Can these somehow by used as a legitimate "cites", seeing as how the bulk of the material in this genre is pornographic in nature?

Comparison with Japanese Article

[edit]
