Is it obligatory for a woman to perform ghusl for janabah if she experiences arousal merely by looking, and is ghusl also required of her when she has a wet dream?

If a woman experiences an orgasm without seminal discharge, she is not required to perform . However, if the sensation of orgasm leads to seminal discharge, or if she sees semen after waking up from sleep (whether she had a dream or not), then ghusl becomes obligatory for her, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Yes, if she sees water."
