Lemon and Lime
Explicit sex stories in general, especially in anime fan fiction, are known as lemon, a term which comes from a Japanese slang term meaning "sexy" that itself derives from an early pornographic cartoon series called Cream Lemon. The term lime denotes a story that has sexual themes but is not necessarily explicit. "Lemon" stories without much plot other than sex are also referred to as smutfics or as PWPs ("Porn Without Plot" or "Plot? What Plot?"). These terms are also sometimes used to describe original amateur fiction that is published online.(source: Wikipedia)

This terms made me in the past also crazy 🙂

Hahahaha, indeed, why not other fruits? In Japan, they don't even really know what lemon means, at least most of them (I've asked my Autie, who lives there) and according (once again) Wikipedia, Cream Lemon ist the first most popular hentai anime in western and lemon derives from it, well maybe that's why.... 😕 ?? But, I prefer strawberry to lemon, it fits better somehow 🙄

Maybe because they both make your face into that sour(ish) face when you read a lemon or lime?
And i'm pretty sure Lemon is male and female pairing while lime is yaoi.
Or Lime is very descriptive while lemon is a bit softer.

Pomegranate, it's the other way around. Lemon is more explicit than lime, and neither term is gender specific, so it could be yaoi, yuri, or het.

🤣 what's with the citrus euphemisms?
I've associated lemon=smut, 'cause I never bothered to look it up or ask anyone.
It even has a wikipedia entry? 🤣

lol nice first post.
Personally I wouldn't like it if strawberries were used. I like to eat strawberries very much and I wouldn't like to think anything weird eating it.
