explicit scenes

Not safe work

Explicit scenes are portions of books, films, or other media that depict sex, violence, or other sensitive content in graphic detail rather than suggesting it indirectly.

The phrase most often refers to sexual content: The novel contains several explicit scenes.

Content warnings frequently flag explicit scenes to help audiences decide whether material suits them.
