The bulk update request #3447 is pending approval.

create implication andromorph_impregnation (155) -> intersex_impregnation (25)
create implication herm_impregnated (0) -> intersex_impregnation (25)
create implication maleherm_impregnated (0) -> intersex_impregnation (25)
create implication intersex_impregnation (25) -> impregnation (20468)
create implication herm_impregnating (0) -> impregnation (20468)
create implication maleherm_impregnating (0) -> impregnation (20468)

Reason: Some of these tags haven't yet been created, but would in themselves be useful since they describe situations that can't be easily recreated via a compound search.
herm_impregnated = herm impregnation -female_penetrated without excluding images where a hermaphrodite is being impregnated while a female is also being penetrated but not impregnated.
maleherm_impregnated covers similar scenarios but for maleherms.
maleherm_impregnating and herm_impregnating to cover situations where the intersex partner is the one doing the penetration and their partner is impregnated as a result. These tags are less critical if the other two are created though, since one could theoretically recreate them by using eg intersex_penetrating impregnation duo_focus

the <gender>_impregnated, <gender>_impregnation, and <gender>_impregnating tags don't really seem like they're used at all. the only exception seems to be male_impregnation with ~260 posts.
honestly, I'm not sure if these are even necessary tags, I think searching impregnation + pregnant_<gender> should be enough.

The impregation pregnant_<gender> search wouldn't turn up either of the <gender>_impregnating results. You'd need something like <gender>_penetrating impregnation, which might include false positives (maleherm penetrating a male while being impregnated by someone else, for example, or a herm getting a blowjob from a female in a spitroast while the other partner impregnates her).

And even for the other tags, impregnation pregnant_<gender> might miss images where the pregnancy isn't yet visible under TWYS, or if the sperm hasn't yet hit the ova.

False positives for a highly specific request such as “maleherm impregnating andromorph” aren’t a problem. As long as a given search can find all needed results, the few false positives that might exist can be easily ignored. In this case, maleherm_penetrating impregnation only returns 14 results, none of which appear to be false positives from a cursory glance. The intended purpose for these tags are extremely niche, and there are already existing tags that can return the same results even if a hypothetical false positive result might appear some day. Given that, I find these completely unnecessary.

Also, as an aside, the mixed use of impregnation and impregnated here is bothering me.

The mixed use is mostly because <gender>_impregnation can be read both as the character being impregnated and doing the impregnation, while <gender>_impregnated is clearer. And since when has the use-case for a tag being niche prevented it from being created and used? We have several <gender>_peeing_on_<gender> tags, and <color>_briefs tags, most of which have very low counts as well.

Regardless of the necessity of the tags themselves though, this BUR is to create the impregnation implications to assist tagging.
