Abstract: The purpose of this study is to find out the differences in using the erotic expression in Indonesian prose written between 2000-2015 by male and female authors The theory used in this study is the theory of linguistic stilistics from Geoffery Leech and Michael H. Short. The method used in this research is a qualitative descriptive study. The sample was taken using purposive sampling. The technique of data analysis used flow models. The result of this research indicates that male and female authors use different words choices (diction) of eroticism. The words are classified into two categories. Those categories are words which refer to organ and erotic activity. It was also found that male and female authors have similar variations in expressing genital organs. However, female authors are more varied in expressing erotic activity than male authors
