Alternately, Shoujo stories can focus on implied or explicit homosexual relationships between men (see [[Boys Love]] for the genre, [[Yaoi Guys]] for characters outside of the genre), or the romantic emphasis could also stem from [[Girls Love|relationships between women]].{{verify}} Some feature all of the above, and usually feature a [[Relationship Ceiling]].{{verify}}
Although series with explicit sexuality are more likely to be [[Josei]] (aimed at older women),{{verify}} some Shoujo may have considerable sexual content;
Not all romance series are Shoujo. [[Shonen]] romances take the boy's perspective ([[Magical Girlfriend]]s and [[Harem Series]] are both common), and focus on the boy pursuing the girl, or trying to resolve the [[Love Dodecahedron]]. If it doesn't have that, a [[Shonen]] romance tends to ''end'' with a declaration of love and its acceptance. Shoujo romances, by contrast, frequently involve the [[Smitten Teenage Girl|heroine finding love early]] in the series, then stick around to watch the couple work through trouble in their relationship.
