Not everyone reads descriptions. Also, it IS a TYPE of video, so it should prob have it's own category.

Those ears aren't deaf.

They're indifferent, which is something else entirely.

In general i like the idea, but i fear the definition is too open to interpretation to make it useful - or more correctly, you might not find what you think you're going to find with it.

For example, heterosexual-male-targeted fan-service would most likely involve erotic displays of female-anatomy, lots of skin-tight clothing that is only not considered sexual nudity by the fact that it's painted another color than the skin, but yaoi-targeted stuff is considered fan-service if there is so much as a kiss or heavy use of soft-filter.

Then there's the whole issue of finding a lot of one of the above when you're searching for the other, etc. etc.

...wait, huh? Sorry, that post distracted me with sexy text ...lol.

I get the idea, but at least you'd know that there's sexual content in the amv.

But not to what degree or to what sexual orientation.
