Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

Multiple_gender and xgender imply how many of the spacific gender there are.
bassicly xgender and multiple_gender should be standalone due to it implying the amount of spacific gender or that there are multiple of that gender.

Using numbered gender tags doesn't seem especially practical, given the volume of intersexes and herms, compared to places like Danbooru which do count characters by gender.

That's 6 different tags for each gender, and between male, female, ambiguous gender, "girly", "manly", "tomboy", "shota", "loli", and the various intersexes, there could be as many as 12 of these, but given that the pattern until now for gendered tags excludes everything but male, female, ambiguous, and intersexes, let's suppose we only have 8 of these "genders" tagged, including a generic "#intersexes", which would have to be manually tagged since 1gynomorph and 1herm would result in 2intersexes, not 1intersex.

Even if we were to adopt all 6 * 8 (48) of these tags, "solo", "duo", and "group" will still have to be tagged manually, and every single post on this site would have to be updated with the new tags. You can't really automate these, either, as any post where "group" is tagged, or ones where the number of genders is not equal to the number of characters, or ones where a gender transformation sequence is present (such as a male/female duo changing to a female/female one), would require manual tagging.

But don't worry, after every post is tagged, you'll be able to search "group" images that have exactly 2 females, and not 1 female or 3 females!

Yeah, pass.
