'''Becky''': Three degrees means I like him, two degrees just means... I think he's okay.<br />

'''Chip''': Oh. Well, his body temperature rose three degrees. Does that mean he likes you? }}

* In ''[[Spaceballs (Film)|Spaceballs]]'', Princess Vespa's robot-maid Dot Matrix has a "Virgin Alarm" that emits a loud noise just as Lone Starr is about to get to first base with her.

{{quote| '''Dot Matrix:''' It's programmed to go off before ''you'' do!}}

* In ''[[Inheritance Cycle|Eragon]]'', Saphira says something to the effect of "you find her form pleasing," referring to [[Hot Amazon]] Arya.

{{quote| '''R. Daneel:''' And though I cannot share human reactions to stimuli, I would judge, from what has been imprinted on my instruction circuits, that the lady meets any reasonable standard of physical attractiveness. From your behavior, moreover, it seems to me that you were aware of it and that you approved of her appearance.<br />

* In the short story ''Liar!'', the mind-reading robot Herbie can tell when humans have fallen in love, although he [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?|doesn't understand how love works]]. He reads romance novels to try and get some education on the subject.

* ''[[Discworld]]''

** Gaspode the Wonder Dog can also tell when two humans are attracted, often well before they do. To his way of thinking, human sex can already be going on when the potential mates are sitting on opposite sides of a campfire, steadfastly refusing to speak to one another, as in ''[[Discworld (Literature)/Moving Pictures|Moving Pictures]]''. Noted again in ''[[Discworld (Literature)/The Fifth Elephant|The Fifth Elephant]]''.

** You Bastard, the camel mathematician... ahem, regular camel whose skills aren't really anything special compared to some of the camels whose postulates he uses in his work, can likewise spot a hookup-in-the-making in ''[[Discworld (Literature)/Pyramids|Pyramids]]''.

* In the ''[[Mercy Thompson]]'' books, this trope makes it impossible for homosexual werewolves like Warren to remain in the closet. To make matters worse, werewolves are socially conservative. It's a testament to Warren's fighting skill that he's survived as a gay werewolf for over 150 years.

* Subverted in the ''[[Prince Roger]]'' series. One of Despreaux's fellow marines {{spoiler|monitors her biometrics to know when to send in a [[Moment Killer]] to keep her and Roger from getting it on.}} Oddly enough, this doesn't work on Roger. {{spoiler|''Nothing'' raises his heart rate or blood pressure except exertion.}}

 

{{quote| {{spoiler|'''O'Neill:''' Because I care about her. A lot more than I'm supposed to.}}}}

* In an episode of ''[[Angel (TV)|Angel]]'', when Illyria meets Connor for the first time, she comments that "This one is lusting after me." Which led to one of the funnier lines of the fifth season, when Connor tells Angel that he's "always had a thing for older women"; Angel mutters "They were supposed to fix that."

{{quote| '''Dalek:''' The female's heartbeat has increased!<br />

'''Mickey:''' Yeah, tell me about it. }}
