** "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheSouthernRaiders The Southern Raiders]]" had a rather [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar infamous]] scene that implied Sokka and Suki were meeting up for a romantic night in his tent, and the next morning Sokka is seen wearing a flower necklace. In other words, Sokka got lei'd and Suki got deflowered.

* ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'': If you get a Game Over, you're treated to an X-ray of The Boyfriend's cracked skeleton, alongside two pulsating blue spheres located on his crotch[[note]][[DontExplainTheJoke blue balls]][[/note]].

* ''Kronk's New Groove'' features a scene where he and his love interest bake bread, which turns into an extended dance sequence. Which includes a shot of Kronk behind Miss Birdwell and... um... helping her knead bread dough.

* ''Manga/DailyLifeWithMonsterGirl'': In [[HarpingOnAboutHarpies Papi's]] introductory chapter, she asks Kimihito to hold her popsicle while she eats it, since she can't really hold it with her wings. She then proceeds to [[EroticEating eat it in the most lascivious manner possible]], prompting the onlookers to assume that Kimihito is a pervert. Not helped by him eventually pulling the popsicle out of her mouth, causing ice cream to splatter on her face. [[InnocentFanserviceGirl Papi]], naturally, has no idea what the big deal is.

* ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'':
** There is a really risque KissOfTheVampire / FuroScene with Evangeline going into [[TheVamp vamp]] territory on Negi. WeaselMascot Chamo happens to be positioned right in front of Negi as this happens, and well...
** Chamo's introduction also had a winner: he jumps in the bath and one of the girls manages to catch him while he's swimming between Negi's legs. It's so blatant that it barely qualifies as innuendo.
** Negi catches Evangeline after she falls off a bridge. With his staff protruding from between his legs. While water drips off of it. Oh, and Evangeline [[ClothingDamage is naked]] during all this.

* ''Comicbook/{{Empowered}}'' has some examples. Look at Thugboy and his gun on the cover of #1.
* In an issue of ''Comicbook/FantasticFour'', the ComicBook/BlackPanther uses a time travel device known as King Solomon's Frogs. In order to activate the device, he has to place one frog atop the other, inadvertently causing it to look like they frogs are having sex. {{Lampshaded}} when Deathlok says "Aw, that's just crude..."

See food examples under EroticEating. PhallicWeapon is a subtrope. If done ''without'' the innuendo, then it's often a case of SceneryCensor, although scenery censors tend to double as visual innuendo too.

* The ''Franchise/BuffyVerse'' shows, ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' and ''Series/{{Angel}}'', include a lot of this: the stake in "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS4E10Hush Hush]]", Wesley's arm-blades in "[[Recap/AngelS04E06SpinTheBottle Spin The Bottle]]", and Buffy (hilariously) crushing Warren's *ahem* magic orbs.
** In the episode when Buffy discovers her post-Angel [[ReplacementGoldfish rebound guy]] Riley at the vamphouse, the scene opens with him and a female vampire kneeling before him, shot at an angle (and with sound effects) that makes it unclear just ''what'' she is sucking, but that there is [[EroticEating definitely sucking going on]]. Then the camera pans around to show that it's just blood from his arm.

** In ''Discworld/UnseenAcademicals'', Glenda points out to the wizards that with the placement of two large letter U's on their uniforms, they'll "look like they've got bosoms!"

* ''LightNovel/{{Shimoneta}}'': Kosuri's hairstyle and its color are designed to resemble the glans of a penis. Whenever she's excited, her body stiffens like an erection. But when she gets scolded, her hair droops and her shoulders slumps, making her seem 'flaccid'.

** In chapter 26, Alice's puppy (Zeke) gets sandwiched upside-down between Rei and Shizuka's boobs. Their breasts being so massive that Zeke's tail is visible. It's seen jutting straight in the air like an erection near Rei's open mouth.

* ''Anime/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha'': The mouth of the Jewel Seed Tree Monster resembles a different bodily opening...

* Ranka's pair of breast-like tuna buns in ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'' episode 3.

* There was an Alitalia poster on bus stops in New York for a while that showed a closeup of a woman [[EroticEating suggestively eating]] a cannoli

** Not to mention a naked Wallace [[HandsOrObjectUnderwear covering himself with a box]] with the words "May Contain Nuts" on it.

* In keeping with the theme of the show, the title sequence of Series/MastersOfSex is a long series of examples: trains going into tunnels, cucumbers being washed, champagne popping, and suggestively shaped mushrooms growing.

* In ''LightNovel/TheDevilIsAPartTimer'', when Chiho appears in a bikini and [[ACupAngst Emi doesn't like what she sees]], the scene [[JumpCut jump cuts]] to Maou serving a pair of one-pound hamburgers (topped with pickles, in case the innuendo wasn't obvious enough). It then shows Emi in her bikini, and cuts again to Maou serving a much-smaller pair of burgers.

** There are several sketches where Benny is a gardener watering plants with a hose held up at crotch level. It's placed so that you don't see the hose at first, just the water coming out.

* The ''Franchise/Buffyverse'', ''Series/BuffytheVampireSlayer'' and ''Series/Angel'' has a lot of these. The stake in "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS4E10Hush Hush]]", Wesley's arm-blades in "[[Recap/AngelS04E06SpinTheBottle Spin The Bottle]]", and Buffy (hilariously) crushing Warren's *ahem* magic orbs.

* In ''Series/{{Glee}}'', when Emma is singing about how she could have "done a thousand things I've never done before", there's a close-up of a pearl necklace. For those who don't know, it's a slang for when a man ejaculates semen around the other's neck.

** It's ''Prince''. The man could do his taxes with an abbacus and make it look sexual.

[[folder: Art ]]

* ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann'' has [[ThisIsADrill drills]] ''everywhere''. ''Some'' of it, notably the HotSpringsEpisode (with Simon running around naked; his crotch obscured only by his drill) ''had'' to have been intentional.

* ''Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx'' has tons of examples, but the piloting positions of [[HumongousMecha the Franxx's]] female and male drivers is arguably the most blatant. Said position involves the girl being on all fours, [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything while the boy stands behind her and holds her hips as they move in sync]].
* ''Anime/ExcelSaga'' shows a lot of suggestive imagery (train entering a tunnel) while he hear Excel's comments as she is [[BlackComedyRape raped]] by a little girl android.
* ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'' has a really risque KissOfTheVampire / FuroScene with Evangeline going into [[TheVamp vamp]] territory on Negi. WeaselMascot Chamo happens to be positioned right in front of Negi as this happens, and well...
** Chamo's introduction also had a winner: he jumps in the bath and one of the girls manages to catch him while he's swimming between Negi's legs. It's so blatant that it barely qualifies as innuendo.
** Negi catches Evangeline after she falls off a bridge. With his staff protruding from between his legs. While water drips off of it. Oh, and Evangeline [[ClothingDamage is naked]] during all this.

* ''Anime/CodeGeass'': The shadow cast by Mao and his chainsaw. Jarring as it is, it makes sense, given Mao's [[{{Yandere}} moti]][[AxeCrazy vation]] and his [[BlessedWithSuck back]][[FreudianExcuse story]].
* Ranka's pair of breast-like tuna buns in ''Anime/MacrossFrontier'' episode 3.
* In ''The LightNovel/DirtyPair: Dangerous Acquaintences'', Kei and Yuri are on vacation on a non-United Galatica planet. They see an attractive guy and start talking to him:
-->'''Kei:''' Oh look… a train! Gee... I jush love watchin' a train enner a station… don' you? It reminsh me of someth-- ?!
* ''Manga/DailyLifeWithMonsterGirl'': In [[HarpingOnAboutHarpies Papi's]] introductory chapter, she asks Kimihito to hold her popsicle while she eats it, since she can't really hold it with her wings. She then proceeds to [[EroticEating eat it in the most lascivious manner possible]], prompting the onlookers to assume that Kimihito is a pervert.

It then shows Emi in her bikini, and cuts again to Maou serving a much-smaller pair of burgers.

* In a ''ComicStrip/ForBetterOrForWorse'' strip set during Michael's early teenage years, his friend Gordon has what he calls "hormone attacks", where anything that could be taken as sexual causes him to pass out. When their gym teacher holds up two basketballs at chest height...
** Another, single-panel gag has the memorable line from his little sister Liz, as they both cloud-gaze, "I see Mickey Mouse['s ears] in the clouds...what do you see?"
* The alien squid in ''ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}'' (the comic version) vaguely resembles a woman's crotch, legs spread. Because the resemblance is vague and grotesque, the squid is dead, and there are also a lot of dead human bodies lying around, this is also a case of FanDisservice.
** Dan and Laurie fight off a gang of muggers. Their actions afterward are to stand there panting and sweaty, briefly look at each other, and then look away, whereupon one of them lights a cigarette. Sadly less obvious in the movie, thanks to the removal of Laurie's smoking.
** When Dan and Laurie have sex in Archie, the flamethrower goes off at the climax.
* X-Men 15, “Prisoners of the Mysterious Master Mold!”, at those long gone days of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. The X-Men need to hold on a platform to ram into a building, and Iceman couldn't craft anything better than a surface with a pair of phallic cylinders to hold. See [[http://x-aspirations.com/?p=692 here]]
-->'''Beast:''' This doesn't seem very dignified, but I suppose it's necessary.

* The first page of ''ComicBook/BatwomanRebirth'' #3 is a scene of a papaya being cut. Several closeups of the opened fruit and the cutter's fingers resemble female masturbation.

[[folder: Film (Animated) ]]
* Who could forget ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a86QgZVgbyQ this]]'' infamous scene from Music/PinkFloyd's ''Film/TheWall?''

* The ''WesternAnimation/WallaceAndGromit'' movie has Totty standing behind two chest-height watermelons, just as she says that her suitor has never taken interest in her produce. A similar sight gag happens when one woman holds up two bitten brassicas (a sort of cabbage) which have been "ravaged in the night."
** Not to mention a naked Wallace in a box with the words "May Contain Nuts" on it.
* ''Kronk's New Groove'' features a scene where he and his love interest bake bread, which turns into an extended dance sequence. Which includes a shot of Kronk behind Miss Birdwell and... um... helping her knead bread dough.

[[folder: Film (Live Action) ]]
* ''Film/OddObsession'': After Kimora climbs on top of Toshiko [[{{Fetish}} (while she is still staring at nude pictures of her mom!)]] the film cuts to shots of trains in the nearby train station. Specifically, multiple shots of train cars--coupling. Followed by a shot of a steam whistle going off.
* ''Film/OfficeSpace'' does this when Lawrence is talking about how he'd do two chicks at the same time: He's sitting down and holding his beer bottle against his crotch.
* ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanAtWorldsEnd'':
** Barbossa and Jack, feuding over who is captaining the ''Black Pearl'', both pull out their telescopes. Jack is disappointed when his is significantly smaller. Later, he steps up to the rail with an enormous, sagging spyglass. Barbossa gives him an AsideGlance.
** At the gathering of the Brethren Court, Barbossa bangs on a table with a chain shot (two cannonballs connected by a chain) for emphasis. Later he stands up and we have a perfectly framed shot of his legs, with the two cannonballs dangling in between.
--->'''Jack:''' Whose boons? Your boons?

* The opening scene of ''Film/NineteenFortyOne'' where a skinnydipping woman finds herself clutching the upthrusting periscope of a surfacing Japanese submarine (also serves as a hilarious ''Film/{{Jaws}}'' take-off).
* ''Film/RobinHoodMenInTights''. The moonlight serenade scene. Robin's sword.

* In the ''Film/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'' movie, the Hades poster has a silver hand on his belt. And the hand looks like it's groping his crotch.
* ''Film/{{Spaceballs}}'' did this with lightsaber stand-ins, as is pictured above.

* ''Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen'' gives us Devastator, who sports a pair of wrecking balls between his legs. ''[[FridgeLogic Which none of his components have in vehicle mode.]]''
** This is also lampshaded. [[spoiler: "In position under enemy scrotum!"]]
* In ''Film/{{Airplane}}'', the stewardess must inflate the automatic pilot by blowing into on a tube on his belt buckle... when someone looks at her from behind it looks like fellatio. The effect is only accentuated when Otto (the automatic pilot)'s previously bland and stoic expression changes into a big, wide-eyed grin once she's finished...
* In ''Literature/BridgetJones' Diary'', Bridget's mother gets a job shilling an "As Seen On TV" gizmo at the mall. It automatically shells a hard-boiled egg. Just put in the egg, then work the shaft and out pops an egg! Then [[RuleOfFunny some white liquid]].
* ''Film/GimmeShelter'': If it weren't enough that Music/TinaTurner was orgasmically moaning during her performance of "I've Been Loving You Too Long", and singing about how her man has to give her what she needs, she fondles her microphone stand in a way that makes it look very, very phallic.
* ''Film/StarshipTroopers3Marauder'' has this happening to cute [[BridgeBunnies Holly Little]]. Sprawled awkwardly after getting a faceload of alien goo, a suddenly-appearing crack in the earth points directly up her skirt, then a penile-like claw bursts from the ground between her legs, whereupon she and [[Series/StarTrekEnterprise Jolene Blalock]] are seized by a gigantic [[VaginaDentata man-eating vagina]] with [[AGodAmI delusions of grandeur]].
* ''Film/BlazingSaddles'' had the Governor trying to put a pen back into its holder. Hedley Lamarr just tells him, "Think of your secretary," and he gets it right into the little... place it's designed to go.
* ''Film/DrStrangelove'', filled as it is with weird sexual innuendo, starts with a scene of two airplanes refueling in midair, but the way it's filmed makes it look like they're having sex. Which was brilliant, because the footage was not shot for the movie: it was StockFootage. All Creator/StanleyKubrick did was play an instrumental version of "Try a Little Tenderness" over it.
** ''Film/TheStarfighters'' also features hot StockFootage of in-flight refueling, which were a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5cEpoHLFOk source of constant merriment]] on ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''.
* In ''Film/DownWithLove'', two characters are having a phone conversation at the same time as engaging in various activities. A split screen makes these activities simulate sex. For instance, when the man is on the top of the split screen, he is shown doing push-ups while the woman is on her back on the bottom of the split screen. They even simultaneously have a [[SmokingHotSex "post-coital" cigarette]] at the end of the scene.
* In ''Film/RearWindow'', Jeff is spying on his neighbors with binoculars. Frustrated when he can't see enough, he puts them down, and picks a camera with a telescopic lens. As in. . .''longer''. Classic Hitchcock symbolism. Oddly, despite the fact that voyeurism is generally a sexually deviant activity, this isn't why Jeff is snooping.
* A much darker example in ''Film/{{Psycho}}'' during the infamous shower scene. The knife has a distinctly phallic silhouette, the stabbing that represents penetration, the ejaculatory spurts of blood--the whole murder is symbolic of a rape that the severely sexually frustrated and repressed killer cannot otherwise carry out.
* In ''Film/EveryWhichWayButLoose'', Philo and Orville stop by a roadside fruit stand manned by sexy Echo (Beverly D'Angelo). As Orville is chatting her up, she holds up two cantaloupes at chest level and says "Want some cantaloupes?" Orville's eyes gleam.
* ''WebVideo/StarWarsDownUnder'', an Australian FanFilm spoof. When the Sith Troopers activate their light-boomerangs, they're being held at groin level. The downward curve of the boomerang [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything makes them appear somewhat]]...[[TheLoinsSleepTonight droopy]].

* ''Film/ShirleyValentine'' depicts waves crashing on the shore and a ship's mast rocking back and forth during its scene, all backed by dramatic orchestral music. Lampshaded by the main character:
--> '''Shirley:''' Oh my God! Where did that orchestra come from?!

* A staggering moment in Creator/WCFields short film ''The Dentist'' where Fields, the dentist, is performing a difficult tooth extraction from an attractive woman. He winds up between her knees humping away trying to extract the tooth, as her high-heeled shoes point at the camera while she moans (with pain). And if that weren't enough, he eventually pulls her out of the chair, and they go staggering around the office with her legs wrapped around his waist. Eventually he pulls the tooth, whereupon the woman slides to the floor in a heap. Even in UsefulNotes/ThePreCodeEra, that was really pushing it.
* ''Film/TheDove'': Sigrid the lesbian offers her cigar to Inga and says "Phalliken symbolsk?"
* ''Film/HaroldAndMaude'' has a scene where Maude is showing Harold her sculptures. They focus in on one in particular, an abstract oval structure with a large hole in the middle. Harold seems enthralled by it and runs his hands all over it, including through the middle.

* ''Series/GameOfThrones'': After Ramsay gelds a captive, he makes a grand show of eating a large sausage in front of him.
* ''Series/{{Selfie}}'': In "Un-Tag My Heart" Eliza tries to invoke this when she thinks her casual sex buddy is looking at her by sucking on a pen. Henry, standing next to her, points out how toxic that is.
* [[Series/BuffytheVampireSlayer The Whedonverse]] has a lot of these. The stake in Hush, Wesley's arm-blades in Spin The Bottle, and Buffy (hilariously) crushing Warren's *ahem* magic orbs.
** In the episode when Buffy discovers her post-Angel [[ReplacementGoldfish rebound guy]] Riley at the vamphouse, the scene opens with him and a female vampire kneeling before him, shot at an angle (and with sound effects) that makes it unclear just ''what'' she is sucking, but that there is [[EroticEating definitely sucking going on]]. Then the camera pans around to show that it's just blood from his arm.
** Not to mention Buffy's erotic dream in the Season eight comics, where she's in between Angel and Spike and all around them are gushing volcanoes, trains entering tunnels, stakes, flowers.. you name it that panel had it.

* In one of the episodes of ''Samantha Who'', the title character (who has experienced amnesia) is trying to remember what sex is like and the next scene shows her boyfriend repeatedly putting a pencil into a mechanical sharpener.
* In ''Series/TheStand'', Larry is trying to get some gas and gets Nadine to help put a hose into the floor as they talk about how Joe needed a surrogate father as well as Nadine. They feel very awkward as they realize the symbolism here.
* An episode of ''Series/TwoPintsOfLagerAndAPacketOfCrisps'' featured Jonny polishing a long, thin pepper grinder in a very... suggestive manner, without quite realising he was doing it.
* In one episode of ''Series/TheNanny'' Fran, C.C. and Val go on a girls night to a cigar club. C.C. wonders why men are staring at them smoking, then all three stick the cigars in their mouths and start sucking.
* In ''Series/RobinHood'', Little John totes around a large staff, and in the episode ''Treasure of the Nation'', meets one of the Queen's bodyguards, who has an even ''bigger'' staff, with a large wooden knob at the end of it. Little John spends a good part of the episode eyeing it nervously.
* ''Series/TheBennyHillShow'' has several sketches where Benny is a gardener watering plants with a hose held up at crotch level. It's placed so that you don't see the hose at first, just the water coming out.

* A frequently-run ad for ''Series/{{Andromeda}}'' has Dylan Hunt using a force lance, a laser-flashlight that expands into a six-foot staff. He holds it right at crotch level, in profile, and lets it grow. Seriously, I'm amazed it even got on the air in prime time, let alone run all day when kids could see it.
* The {{Media Watchdog}}s descended upon the UsefulNotes/SuperBowl [=XLI=] halftime show, when Music/{{Prince}} played his guitar (shaped to look like his symbol) behind a drape in silhouette, making it look as if the neck is...well...and oh, yeah, a piece of the body stuck out below the neck to look like...oh my.
** It's ''Prince''. The man could do his taxes with an abbacus and make it look sexual.
* In ''Series/{{Life On Mars|2006}}'', Gene and Sam are visiting a comatose girl in the hospital when they start a fight. They whale on each other for a bit, and then the camera cuts to them sprawled on the floor at the end of the bed, slightly the worse for wear, breathing heavily, and with Gene smoking a cigarette as they have a heart-to-heart conversation.

* The music video for {{Music/Devo}}'s "That's Good" has a bluescreen background that, on occasion, shows a french fry going into the hole in a donut, followed a naked woman from the shoulders up writhing in ecstasy. It's...fairly unsubtle. (Then the fries start breaking as they go in, and the woman begins looking downwards with a sigh of frustration...) MTV refused to air the video before either the french fry or the donut was removed.

* The music video for KoreanPopMusic group {{EXID}}'s song "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfXZ6ydgZyo Up and Down]]" features heavy doses of phallic and other sexual images.

* The squirrel girl Wrestling/SoloDarling collects nuts. In Wrestling/{{WSU}} she stores them in a plastic bag, which swings between her legs, like a sack.[[/folder]]

* In ''VisualNovel/{{Snatcher}}'', Gillian sees an underage girl in his apartment, using his shower. She freaks out and sprays him with her showerhead. He spends the next scene looking damp, flushed and shocked with fluid dripping down his face.
* In ''VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes'', the main character Travis recharges his Beam Katana by shaking it. But, the behind the back camera makes it look suspiciously like [[ADateWithRosiePalms something else...]]

* In Chapter 10, Act 2 of the web animation series ''WebAnimation/BrokenSaints'', when [[SexySecretary Sandra]] talks about wanting to do field work at a naval base with hunky sailors, a little animation features her moving her pencil to and from her lips. It's not much, but its been confirmed by WordOfGod to be intentional.

* ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' had a rather [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar infamous]] scene that implied Sokka and Suki were meeting up for a romantic night in his tent, and the next morning Sokka is seen wearing a flower necklace. In other words, Sokka got lei'd and Suki got deflowered.
** And earlier in the series, [[BlackMagicianGirl Toph]] steals [[MartialPacifist Aang's]] staff and a bag of nuts when he gives up his earthbending training for not being [[MeaningfulName *tough*]] enough.
* At the end of ''WesternAnimation/TheRenAndStimpyShow'' episode "Powdered Toast Man", Powdered Toast Man (now President of the United States) and his lovely assistant are seen roasting a wiener and marshmallow, respectively, while sporting suggestive grins. According to the DVD commentary, this just barely got past the radar.
* In ''WesternAnimation/BalloonLand'' the villain is an anthropomorphic safety pin. An ''open'' safety pin.

* One installment of Webcomic/TempleVaTi involves a beaufea woman named Jacqueline offering her friend Lilly a [[TheTwink "eumidweeke"]], a pastry from her ancestral planet. After Lilly says "Sounds delicious!" Jacqueline levitates the [[WholesomeCrossdresser beautiful young beaufea man]] sitting next to her into Lilly's arms, and says "Trust me...HE is!" while squeezing the cream out of the cylindrical sweet.

* The squirrel girl Solo Darling collects nuts. In Wrestling/{{WSU}} she stores them in a plastic bag, which swings between her legs, like a sack.[[/folder]]

[[caption-width-right:350:"I see your Schwartz is as big as mine."[[note]]"Now let us see how well you ''handle it!''[[/note]]]]

* ''Comicbook/{{Empowered}}'' has some examples. Look at Thugboy and his gun at the cover of #1.
