We probably should alias both of those to cleavage_cutout.

Can I just say I hate that cleavage_cutout tag? It seems to have been a phrase created exclusively by and for boorus. If you Google it the FIRST thing that comes up are a bunch of boorus. It's not a real thing people say. It's not natural. I would rather use boob_window or maybe even cleavage_window (which is the way TV Tropes says it) because those are actual things a normal person might actually search.

but aliases solve the "this is not what people would search for" issue. we could tag it as mamamry_gland_peeking_hole or something equally stupid and people would still find what they want when they look for boob_window if its aliased to mamamry_gland_peeking_hole

tho i personally think that cleavage_window or breast_window would be better since they sound much less weird than cleavage_cutout and they would not be out of place with e621's more formal terminology leaning tags.

I mean, yeah....I kinda knew someone was going to bring this up yet again. I don't think that's a license to just give on evaluating tags. I still think its important to find tags that are recognizable by a common person, and are easy to understand.

Now that you brought it up though, I like your breast_window suggestion. cleavage_window is fine too, but it almost implies that cleavage will be present when we all know that isn't always true. Ofc breasts won't be true in all cases either (a man could be wearing one of those sweaters), but it would be more true if that makes sense.

i still do not think that the cat keyhole bra is necessary tag since its pretty much exclusive for cat lingerie

On the other hand, there is precedent for separate tags. There are separate tags for the two parts of a bikini when one piece is visible but the other isn't: bikini_top and bikini_bottom. Mind you both of them imply bikini itself, however.

Again: post #1116093
This is lingerie in the shape of a cat

like i said in the other thread, cat lingerie should probably be renamed since its a tag for this very specific type of lingerie and not all possible cat themed lingerie

As opposed to teddiette, shelf bra, bustier and other very specific types of lingerie? Why push to get rid of one specific piece without acknowledging all the other ones?

the cat lingerie tag is not like for generic type of lingerie. its for this very specific brand of lingerie with very specific look. and it probably should be renamed to reflect the fact that its meant for this very specific lingerie set and cat lingerie tag should be used for all types of cat themed lingerie.

and we do not need separate tag for the bra piece since its exclusive for this set which has been tagged only about 250 times. whats the point of having tag B when it contains exact same posts as tag A

A very specific look that's recognizable enough to warrant its own tag.
