I think that, before making such color aliases/implications, we'd need to decide on how we should handle colors for any sort of color_bodypart tags.

I mean, we currently don't alias red_fur to pink_fur. So I don't see why we should alias red to pink here.

But.. +1 to alias rosy_cheeks -> pink_cheeks.

Rosy =/= pink. "Rosy Cheeks" is used to refer to characters with bright red circles on their cheeks, but the red coloration doesn't apply to all species, some have other colors of blood.

The only thing I can imagine when I hear the word "rosy" is pink.

So it's the color of the blood then? And even if it's green, it should still be called "rosy", because that's the color of blood? Sorry but you make no sense.

Roses come in a lot of different colors, mate.

You're the only one who sees rainbows when you imagine a rose color, mate. Time to get your mind out of the clouds!

Altho roses can come in various colors, when you read the word rose, you have to look at it objectively and imagine "the most likely color" that this word would represent, and not "any" color.

+1, I've known rosy cheeks as "filled with a lively color", not necessarily the color red but such is the easiest way to make something look lively.

Sorry but, there's no dictionary that defines "rosy" as "lively".

Also, as far as I can see, this tag isn't supposed to represent lively cheeks, but a colored circular shape on a character's cheek. It's something that we naturally see on pikachu.

Personally, the name I would give to characters with circles on their cheeks as a tag would be fake_blush or permanent_blush or something like that. Maybe even bright_cheeks. But certainly not rosy heh. Rosy is too subjective.
