If intimate contact acts as a [[Power Limiter]], see [[Cooldown Hug]].

 

== Anime and Manga ==

* In the manga of [[Nagasarete Airantou]], when Ikuto {{spoiler|is poisoned during a visit to Kunai's house, Shinobu does this. It annoys Ayane, surprise surprise.}}

** In the manga, the scene lasted about only one page, while in the anime, they made it last [[Filler|around half an episode]], probably to [[Fan Service|please]] the [[Yaoi Fangirls]]. Masami Kurumada, you sly dog.

* In [[Kanokon]], both Chizuru and Nozomu do this to the resident cute little boy and odd woman magnet after the entire school gets frozen. But, Kanokon being Kanokon, they up the ante by taking every chance to fondle, rub up to and generally molest him, up to and including a (heavily implied) handjob. From both of them. At the same time.

* Used in ''[[Kaze no Stigma]]'' when super-powerful wind mage Kazuma Yagami uses an elixir to revive Ayano Kannagi.

* Karin and Kazune in ''[[Kamichama Karin]]''...which is [[Squick|slightly creepy]] because the two characters [[Toy Ship|are children]].

* Sort of averted in [[The Takeshi Kovacs Series|Broken Angels]]. Takeshi uses his special psychodynamic rehabilitation techniques on Tanya, a recent internee at a wartime prison. Tanya decides that she needs to have sex with Takeshi to change her feeling of being 'fixed'. Said fornication causes the conditioning to break down.

* In [[Michael Crichton]]'s ''Prey'', {{spoiler|Julia}} also transfers nanomachines by kissing. Unfortunately, these are '''not''' the good kind. It gets even worse later, with one unwilling victim being ''held down'' for the kiss.

* [[Anita Blake]], main [[Action Girl]] of Laurell K. Hamilton's ''Anita Blake: Vampire Hunter'' series uses sexual energy to call various kinds of preternatural power, most often healing power.

** Early in the series, deeply religious and strictly monogamous Anita only uses this as a last resort, to [[God Mode Sue|save friends from grievous injuries]]. In the later books the vampiric ''arduer'' turns Anita into a [[Horny Devil]]. So she may act [[My Girl Is a Slut|like a slut]], but she's clearly [[My Girl Is Not a Slut|not a slut]] because it's NOT HER FAULT.
