alt title(s): The Nosebleed Discussion Looney Toons: From the Love Hina example:
When it fails to happen one time, Naru becomes suspicious.
Then again, Naru becomes suspicious when Keitaro breathes.
Chrome Newfie: If someone took the kind of beating Keitaro usually receives and kept breathing, let alone got up, I'd be suspicious too. ;)
Idler: I don't think the Frasier example fits. Niles' nosebleeds are caused by a subconscious reaction to his own dishonesty, not to attraction.
Nosebleed: Wow. This is my contributor page. Creepy.
Ellinor:The part that says: "Note: In Japanese manga, the nosebleed is a visual shorthand/euphemism for sexual arousal, specifically an erection in males (which makes it all the more odd when used with a female character.)" particularly the sentence in parentheses doesn't really make sense since females do get erections (of the clitoris; the clitoris and penis are homologous counterparts).
Muninn: Does anybody feel that this part of the description may be a bit of an understatement?
