Requested feature overview description.
Species/Gender 'matrix'

Why would it be useful?
At present, if I search "dragon female", I get all images that have:
►at least 1 dragon
►at least 1 female
This can get really annoying, as I obviously want female dragons to be in the posts. So, I propose a new tagging system for species and gender. The species tags would be changed to be formatted "<species>(<comma-delimited list of gender(s) present of that species)", and would be entered into the search bar the same. For example, I would search "dragon(female)" to obtain my wanted result above, and I could exclude males if I wanted to by changing it to "dragon(female,-male)".
This would be displayed on posts as a grid in the current location of the species tags, and would be formatted accordingly:
►Species tagged in the post would label the rows
►Genders tagged in the post would label the columns
►Each species-gender pair would have some mark in its appropriate cell if present in the post.

Kira comment: Deferred. This isn't going to happen right now, the scope of this change is very large and it needs further discussion to nail down how it will work. This may be reconsidered at a later time.

Updated

This is also another post but its dup under the same idea.

Requested feature overview description.
Each subject in a post has a separate list of character tags describing them.

Why would it be useful?
This feature would allow incredibly specific searches and blacklists to be made, especially in regards to particular characters and fetishes.
With our current tagging system, if someone wanted to search for female elephants, they could enter the "female" and "elephant" tags, but many of the posts would be needlessly irrelevant to their intended search. They would get many male elephants, and females of other species, so long as both tags were in the post. They could add the "solo" tag to their search, but this would exclude a vast amount of artwork that includes female elephants.
While this would make correctly tagging a post more difficult, once correctly tagged, the entire database would become much more accurate and precise.

Kira comment: Deferred. Duplicate of character/species/matrix.
