In sexual contexts, hentai carries additional meanings of "perversion" or "abnormality", especially when used as an adjective;:99 in these uses, it is the shortened form of the phrase hentai seiyoku (変態性欲) which means "sexual perversion".[1] The character hen is a catch-all for queerness as a peculiarity—it does not carry an explicit sexual reference.[2]:99 While the term has expanded in use to cover a range of publications including homosexual publications,[2]:107 it remains primarily a heterosexual term, as terms indicating homosexuality entered Japan as foreign words.[2]:100[1] Japanese pornographic works are often simply tagged as 18-kin (18禁; '18-prohibited'), meaning "prohibited to those not yet 18 years old", and seijin manga (成人漫画; "adult manga").[1] Less official terms also in use include ero anime (エロアニメ), ero manga (エロ漫画), and the English initialism AV (for "adult video"). Usage of the term hentai does not define a genre in Japan.
