Topic: [REJECTED] Tag implication: male_swimwear_challenge -> crossdressing

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag implication #53157 male_swimwear_challenge -> crossdressing has been rejected.

Reason: The male swimwear challenge is about feminine people wearing masculine clothes (male swimwear), which seems like it would be crossdressing to me.

P.S. is there a reason it is a "copyright" tag? Maybe there are nuances to the tagging system I do not know of

EDIT: The tag implication male_swimwear_challenge -> crossdressing (forum #384110) has been rejected by @slyroon.

I'm not really sure the actual reason but it's been longstanding tradition that memes and some other things like holidays (christmas, etc.) get put into the copyright category.

An interesting exemption is that only general-category tags have to explicitly follow twys, while copyright tags don't need to. As an edge case it could quite easily mean that the male_swimwear_challenge tag may be applied to a post of a masculine flat-chested female character, yet the female character could be tagged as male per twys, and therefore not crossdressing. post #4167818 & post #2517855 are a great examples - currently tagged as female, but probably shouldn't be

I'm also a little dubious on calling it crossdressing in the first place since society allows females to wear pretty much anything they want - nobody would bat an eye at a woman wearing swim trunks if she weren't also topless.

Good thing we have lore tags!
