| - The user can induce death through sexual intercourse, either caused by the user draining the victim's life energy, injecting poison, or exhausting them past their physical limits.
- Well, the young couple had sex. You know what this means -- they are doomed. Anyway, more often she is. Shows where lots of people die tend to have a strange conservatism about who gets killed. Anyone who engages in nonmarital sex, especially unprotected and/or with someone they don't really know, is almost guaranteed to get offed by the killer, even if the killer is choosing their victims totally at random. Fanservice Extras are particularly vulnerable to this trope. Examples of Death by Sex include:

Anyone who engages in nonmarital sex, especially unprotected and/or with someone they don't really know, is almost guaranteed to get offed by the killer, even if the killer is choosing their victims totally at random. Fanservice Extras are particularly vulnerable to this trope. Very common in slasher movies, such as the Friday the 13 th and A Nightmare on Elm Street series. This could be a metaphor for the then-new AIDS scare, or for STDs in general, although according to one of the makers of Nightmare On Elm Street, it was simply because he thought that people having sex will forget about everything else and be especially vulnerable to serial killers. Which wouldn't be an Ass Pull if they only died during sex, but when they're prone to it after... For a literal application, compare Out with a Bang, Death by Childbirth (yeah, we know...), Curiosity Killed the Cast, and The Murder After. For the lite version, see Kiss of Death. Mate or Die is the inverse of this trope. Contrast A Man Is Not a Virgin and Her Heart Will Go On, where the man is doomed, but the woman has Contractual Immortality. In some cases, the doomed man will leave Someone to Remember Him By (Hur, hur, hur...). Don't even get us started if it's with the same gender. Compare Cartwright Curse where death can happen even before the sex merely for being a love interest. Sometimes a consequence of Can't Get Away with Nuthin'. Can be full of Unfortunate Implications, especially in countries where abstinence-only sex education is prominent. Examples of Death by Sex include:
