The bulk update request #8077 is pending approval.

remove implication in_one_ear_and_out_the_other (277) -> ear_penetration (2199)

Reason: In_on_ear_and_out_the_other is a subset of ear_threading for when the penetration specifically enters one ear and exists the other. Ear_threading can also be used for penetration entering an ear and exiting from a different non-ear orifice.

Alternatively... perhaps we don't need this tag at all? Maybe the non-IOEAOTO (such a long name...) scenario can just be searched for with ear_threading mismatched_threading?

Editing to alias IOEAOTO to ear_threading per Pleaseletmein's reply, and then ear -> non-ear threading can be searched with ear_threading mismatched_threading.

After:
alias in_one_ear_and_out_the_other -> ear_threading

As someone who has put a lot of work into tagging threading stuff I agree, in one ear and out the other is the default scenario for ear threading.

Something needs to be done with snake impalement as well, probably an alias to threaded by body.

updated! thanks

topic #40589 for snake_impalement -> threaded_by_body, for onlookers

bump, it should be decided whether it should be aliased or imply ear_threading

Please don't alias it, keep it as an implication.

IOEATO-- IOEAOTH-- fuck! That long tag is kept as a (most common case, "matched orifices", as LetMeIn said) subset of ear_threading, where it specifically emerges out the other ear. There aren't a lot of emerging-orifice-specific tags like this, but there are a few (this one, jukaroism, urethral ATWT, on top of my head). You could make the case that they're redundant with mismatched_threading, but I would rather we try to add more orifice pairs subtags for this. I still lament the fact that there isn't actually a tag for "normal anal-oral threading".
