Topic: Interspecies & Intraspecies Romance Implications

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #12702 is pending approval.

create implication interspecies_romance (494) -> romantic (43021)
create implication interspecies_romance (494) -> interspecies (359719)
create implication intraspecies_romance (79) -> romantic (43021)
create implication intraspecies_romance (79) -> intraspecies (28919)

Reason: There's no case where an image tagged with "interspecies romance" shouldn't have the "interspecies" tag, and the same is true for "intraspecies romance" and "intraspecies." Naturally, there's also no reason any image tagged with either tag wouldn't have the "romantic" tag as well.

Why the need for separate tags? Isn't it already understood that interspecies and intraspecies are both used in romantic and sexual scenarios?
Considering that the sex component for both tags (i.e., interspecies_sex and same_species_sex) were aliased to their base tags already, I don't see a reason to keep the romance component separated as well.

For people wanting to search for these kind of scenarios, simply looking at interspecies romance and intraspecies romance would suffice.
