Topic: Male Cleavage Fix

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #8456 is pending approval.

remove implication cleavage (139581) -> breasts (1748167)
create implication pec_cleavage (22) -> cleavage (139581)
create implication moob_cleavage (12) -> cleavage (139581)

Reason: Men can have breasts (usually called pecs/moobs) and cleavage too! pec_cleavage and moob_cleavage are incredibly unclear as a user, preferring to search for male cleavage or something similar instead (also breast_cleavage is redundant, so why isn't that the case for pecs/moobs?). Additionally, topic #4469, topic #7201, and topic #11067 all bring up the original cleavage -> breasts implication, but each time only the state of undress is considered and not the apparent gender of the character who has cleavage.

I think people searching or blacklisting cleavage are intending to get breasts on females/gynomorphs/herms, not muscled pecs or fatty moobs on males/andromorphs/maleherms. It doesn't seem useful to combine them all under cleavage.

maybe it should be aliased it to breast_cleavage, though, it does tend to get mistagged a on moobs and pecs lot. although, I guess so do a lot of tags with breast in the tagname, so...

Perhaps something similar to male_lactation would work better and they should be aliased to male_cleavage?

Something like that, yeah. Not a fan of the male_ prefix when it can apply to andromorph and maleherm characters, but it does follow other tags and I don't have a better idea.
