Not a genre but actually a demographic. Refers to anime based on manga that was originally serialized in a magazine targeting girls of any age. American fans seem to often be confused and classify any show that has romance and/or major female main characters as shoujo-- this is wrong.
Anime based on manga targeting young women would be called josei. (though very little of the manga targetting young women gets made into anime-- the only ones I can think of are Ebichu and Momoiro Sisters.)
Titles of this category should contain at least one character who is able to occasionally change its gender, contain several beings of different genders within the same body or have to act in a cross-gender manner. Ranma 1/2 and Tetsuwan Birdy are examples of this category.
