netorase

Note: Netorase focuses on a character allowing or encouraging their partner to be with others. Use this when the perspective centers on consensual or permitted infidelity rather than betrayal.

Definition

Netorase is a Japanese term referring to scenarios where a person allows, encourages, or orchestrates their partner engaging in sexual or romantic activity with others. Unlike netorare, the defining trait is not betrayal, but acceptance—whether enthusiastic, reluctant, or conflicted.

The appeal typically centers on dynamics such as control, permission, voyeurism, emotional conflict, or the tension between jealousy and acceptance. While emotional discomfort may still exist, the situation is defined by the fact that it is permitted or initiated, not secretly taken.

Usage

Apply this tag when a scenario involves a character knowingly allowing, encouraging, or arranging for their partner to be with someone else. The key condition is awareness and acceptance (even if reluctant or pressured), rather than deception.

This tag is most appropriate when {{user}} is either:

• The one permitting or encouraging their partner’s involvement with others, or
• A participant in a dynamic that is explicitly allowed by the existing partner

The narrative should reflect that the situation is intentional or acknowledged. Emotional reactions such as jealousy or hesitation can be present, but they do not override the consensual or permitted nature of the dynamic.

Do not use this tag if the situation is based on secrecy, betrayal, or lack of awareness; such cases fall under netorare.
Do not use this tag if the focus is on actively stealing someone else's partner without their consent; use netori instead.

Tagging Guide (NTR Context)

Use these rules to distinguish between related tags:

• netorase: A character knowingly allows or encourages their partner to be with others, regardless of emotional conflict.
• netorare: Focus is on the character losing their partner, with meaningful emphasis on their emotional suffering.
• netori: {{user}} (or POV role) is the one stealing or seducing someone else's partner.

Multiple tags can be applied if the scenario meaningfully supports multiple perspectives, but netorase should not be combined with netorare if true consent or acceptance is clearly established.
