Tagging Instructions:
1. Because male characters do not have breasts, (see: howto:tag_genders), a topless_male should be rating:s (safe), unless other aspects of the image warrant otherwise (see: topless).
2. As with topless, topless_male should not be used when the tagged character is also bottomless (see: "Missing Clothes Cheat Sheet" under either bottomless or topless). In this case, use nude instead.
3. Because shirtless is considered a defunct tag, use topless_male in place of shirtless_male.
Why This Tag?
The benefit of having the topless_male tag when searching is that while searching "topless male" will return results for both characteristics, it does not ensure that both characteristics will appear on a single character (for example, searching "topless male" may return an image of a topless_female with a male character appearing along side her).
