Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

MemberGender check, anybody? Not entirely sure. I've seen plenty of flat-chested females here. The whole body says "female" except for the lack of d-cups.

MemberBecause of the TWYS rule, this kind of information is completely unusable for the purposes of tagging. The only information that may be externally sourced is the names of characters.
Due to the mixed indications (extremely female body, but no breasts, and no information on the presence or lack of a penis), this image should be tagged ambiguous_gender.
OogieDahBoogie
MemberI dislike that TWYS rule. Starts up alot of shit. Why can't it be what artist says goes.
CamKitty
MemberTo bring up an old example, to stop an artist drawing a square, calling it a circle, and our tagging system going to hell. Extremely generalized example, but the basic idea is there
EightyNine
MemberIf you thought for longer than fifteen seconds, you'd realize that "what the artist says" could and would cause the same, if not more, "shit."

MemberHow would you tag post #107219 ?
male or female?
Krystal is usually a female character. (Ask Nintendo. They'll confirm it.)
In this case "she" (or better "he") has a penis. So why in the name of god would you tag it female?
And now extend that to pictures where you can't see any gender indicators. Why would you tag that female, when you can't see whether it's male or female (or herm/dickgirl/cuntboy/female+flat_chested/...)?

MemberKrystal is not an OC character so that is not really a good example to use in this case.
