newhalf
A futanari with penis and testicles but no vagina. That is to say, the character has a female body but male sex organs.
This tag should be used if you can either visually confirm the character has no vagina or there is information that clearly supports that the character doesn't have one, such as the tags used in the source, the artist's commentary or indicators in the art itself that confirms the character is a newhalf. When in doubt use the futanari tag instead.
Newhalf is a Japanese slang term for a pre-op or non-op male-to-female transexual. Also known as "shemale" (シーメール). The word "newhalf" was originally used for referring a male who had begun to transition to female but kept her lower body the same; literally a "new half".
