Sole male indicates a gallery features exactly one male character. Combined with 'sole female,' this creates the classic one-on-one pairing. With multiple female characters, it creates a harem scenario. This tag is useful for filtering based on the reader's preferred dynamic — whether they want focused monogamy-style content or one male with multiple partners. The tag doesn't specify the male character's role or prominence; he could be the protagonist, a side character, or even a reluctant participant depending on the genre.

Stockings (ストッキング) is a highly popular fetish tag focusing on thigh-high stockings, pantyhose, and similar legwear. This tag has a dedicated following due to the aesthetic appeal of stockings in illustration — artists often use them to accentuate leg lines, create contrast with skin, and add visual texture. The tag covers various styles including thigh-highs, garter stockings, pantyhose, and knee-highs. It appears across all genres and is often paired with 'sole female,' 'big breasts,' and 'schoolgirl uniform.' Some artists are known specifically for their detailed stocking artwork.

Shotacon (ショタコン) refers to content featuring young or young-appearing male characters. The term originates from 'Shotaro complex' (after the character Shotaro from Tetsujin 28-go). In doujinshi, this tag indicates the presence of youthful male characters in suggestive or explicit scenarios. Content ranges from innocent to explicit and is a significant demographic category. The tag is the male counterpart to 'lolicon' and often appears in yaoi (male-male) content or in heterosexual scenarios with older female partners.
