Aliasing thigh_sex → intercrural
Link to alias

Reason:

Tagged the same way.
Now, I'm not 100% sure about this one. Based on the current wiki description of intercrural, they're the same. But it could be argued that intercrural covers more than just thigh sex, and if we want to go with that definition instead then it'd be better to implicate thigh_sex to intercrural instead of aliasing.. Opinions?

Well... I THINK they're the same, but today is the first time I've heard of intercrural so I'm hardly an expert. Google searches agree with you as well, so I tentatively say go for it?

Hmm. That brings up a good point.
There might a lot of users who aren't familiar with the term, so if this gets aliased, maybe it should be the other way around: intercrural → thigh_sex? Making intercrural the main tag would probably lead to a lot of new typos.

I feel more comfortable agreeing to that, and I think that it firs pretty well. Hard to misunderstand the tag too, which is always good :P

This was exactly my first thought. I love intercrural, but it still was a learning curve to get familiar with the word, remember what it was called and even worse: how to spell it. Thigh_sex is a lot more straightforward to remember, to spell, and to understand when you see it on something. So I'd vote to flip the alias and make it intercrural to --> thigh_sex just for practical reasons. It's a more user-friendly term for it instead of the technical term. Sort of like we did for a few other things like Coprophagia vs eating_shit
