Topic: Tag Implication: smaller_female -> female

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

I'm generally hesitant to add implications to gender tags as they can be kind of a headache sometimes, but these are probably okay. Note that whatever decision is made here will legitimize their use.

Also, I'd alias small_male, etc. to them but it may cause mistags on solo posts (which probably shouldn't be tagged with that anyways). I don't know if they are in use right now, but it might be worth discussing while we're on the subject.

Completely unrelated: The giant tag has bugged me for a while. I'd almost say to alias it to macro, but I'm not 100% on that (if so it'll probably need a quick cleanup first).

True that, though I don't see how a small female could not be a female, they should be per definition, but I guess the problems come when you want to change the gender when there's some ambiguity in a post.

Solo + larger*/smaller* currently only holds multi image posts, I cleaned out a few (4?) with duo and/or solo_focus.

Got 1 post in large_male and 3 posts in large_female, so not very used, no. I don't think there would be any harm in aliasing though... Maybe would cause problems if people would see e.g. a macro female and maybe say oh, that's a "large female", but I doubt they would say a "larger female" (larger than what)? In duos it's easier to relate the size of one character to the other almost automatically. Though the easiest mistake is probably mistagging with large instead of chubby, obese, big breasted, wide hipped etc.

On that subject, I also saw there was 77 larger_anthro, but I can't even figure out what that tag is supposed to be used for... Seems to be a little bit of everything (with a number of heavyset characters).
