Tribbing — also called tribadism, scissoring, or grinding — is one of the most depicted intimate acts in adult yuri. The term comes from the Greek tribas, 'to rub,' and describes direct body-to-body contact between two women. In yuri manga, lesbian doujinshi, and animated yuri scenes, tribbing carries weight because it depicts an act unique to women loving women: mutual, face-to-face, with no penetrative substitute.
The tag is dominated by adult doujinshi from artists who specialize in detailed, anatomically honest sex scenes — Homura Subaru, Ooshima Tomo, and others whose work we cover in our top yuri doujin artists feature. For broader context on adult yuri publishing and where tribbing fits in the modern hentai landscape, our lesbian hentai guide is the best starting point.
Looking for animated scenes? Our yuri tribbing videos page collects every animated tribbing scene in the catalog, kept separate from the manga listing so video viewers and manga readers can each find what they came for without scrolling past the other format.
Within yuri, tribbing appears across every setting: school rooftops, office desks, fantasy bedrooms, and post-confession apartments. What unites the scenes is intimacy without props — no toys, no penetration, just two bodies in friction. Tribbing is often the climax of a slow-burn romance, the moment a relationship moves from emotional commitment to physical certainty. Adult readers will find both detailed full-color scenes and grayscale doujinshi that emphasize emotion over anatomy.

Tribbing (tribadism) is a form of physical intimacy between two women involving direct body-to-body genital contact. The term comes from the Greek word 'tribas' meaning 'to rub.' It is one of the most depicted acts in yuri manga, GL doujinshi, and lesbian hentai. Related terms include scissoring, grinding, and frottage — all describing variations of the same intimate act between women.
In yuri manga and doujinshi, tribbing scenes are valued for depicting a uniquely feminine form of intimacy that emphasizes mutual pleasure and physical closeness. Artists portray the act with varying levels of explicitness — from suggestive paneling in mainstream yuri to fully detailed depictions in adult doujinshi. The popularity of this tag reflects the demand for authentic women-loving-women content.
Tribbing appears across many yuri subgenres. In romance-driven manga, it often represents the culmination of emotional tension between characters.

Tribbing and scissoring describe the same act but with different connotations.
