The bulk update request #7810 is pending approval.

create alias roseboy (0) -> femboy (132678)
create alias rose-boy (0) -> femboy (132678)
create alias rose_boy (0) -> femboy (132678)

Reason: Seems to be used in some online communities to counter-act social stigma of the word, or some inherent issue with calling things feminine.

Oh fuck, I forgot to actually check the tags. "Roseboy" is something that I should move into a roseboy_(character) tag, right?

I don't think this word has enough widespread use to justify these aliases.

Regardless of whether the roseboy tags get converted to femboy or not, if "roseboy" is a word that can be easily mistaken for something else, it wouldn't hurt to add a suffix to preemptively disambiguate the character. However, it's best to use the character owner's name if at all possible instead of just of just a generic _(character). In this case, that appears to be roseboy_(tzokatli).

Since I don't see a problem with that, I moved them over. If I'm considered an idjit for doing that, it wouldn't be hard to move them back.

I just used _(character) as a placeholder there. Sorry for the confusion.

Just because a phrase isn't common doesn't mean it shouldn't be aliased. If anything, that's a reason to alias.
