The term futanari is reserved for characters drawn in an hentai art style. Females that share similar characteristics with futanari but are drawn in a Western style are usually simply referred to as cartoon dickgirls.
“Futas”, as the females are often called, fall into several categories:
The traditional form of futanari in which the cartoon female is depicted as having both male and female sexual organs.
- A variation on this form in which the penis takes the place of the clitoris.
- A variation on the two above forms in which the testicles are omitted (i.e. the character will have a penis but no testicles).
- Enlarged or hypertrophic clitoris in which the character has no set of male sexual organs per se. This is still arguably included under the blanket term futanari.
- Shemale or newhalf style in which the character has a penis and testicles, but lacks a vagina. This is sometimes depicted as the result of a gender swap operation.
