is there such a thing as a "Semi-encompassing search"? I can't think of a short way to explain it, so here's an example.

Let's say I want to search "-gay". Unfortunately for me, anything that has a solo male is not tagged with "gay". I want to exclude it from my search, but if I were to search "-gay -solo", I would also be excluding solo female images, which I actually want included in my results. So, would it be at all possible to search "-gay -solo&male" or something like that?

I don't think such a search is possible on its own. You could (temporarily) blacklist male solo though.

Animperfect already covered my first suggestion, but the other suggestion is to download and install eSix extend and use the "refine search" option

Well...

~intersex ~female ~ambiguous_gender ~none_pictured -male/male

That could work. It would include everything with no characters, a female character, an ambiguous character, or an intersex character (which would necessarily get rid of solo male pictures), except for those pictures which also include more than one male engaging sexually with each other.

Though depending what you are looking for, some of those terms could be excluded (such as none_pictured, if you aren't interested in pictures with no characters, for instance).

It's actually zero_pictured.

How about -gay solo female?

I don't think they're looking for ONLY solo pics though :P

A better search might be "breasts -male/male" that way at least one of the characters in the image will have boobs, thereby excluding solo male content and anything including gay sex while still including feminine intersex characters. This DOES have the drawback of excluding solo cuntboys and some reptilian females, but I'm willing to bet its a non issue for a user who dislikes gay content.

It sounds like you want to exclude males, period, in which case -male should do the trick.

You are right. I get that wrong so frequently you'd think I'd have it figured out by now.

Anyway, the point stands that the search combo would do what he's looking for, if you used the proper tag there. Though of course this is just a hypothetical situation, so it's not really that helpful to him.

Tokaido's suggestion would actually work pretty well, all things considered. I feel kinda dumb for not thinking of that... At any rate, thanks for the help, gents and gentettes!
