Balls is not offensive. It does not need to change.

You and i will never agree. On anything. It seems. But the offensiveness isnt the issue. Its the fact that balls is a nondescript word just like pussy was.

Balls should be changed. I tried to make an alias change request but it said one was already in the system.

Following up with pussy to vulva. People who search "balls" are looking for scrotums. Not the testicles themselves, nor pictures with soheres or sports balls.

Reason: currently theres a lot of situations where a character might have different genital configurations or a testicle is visible but not attached (such as in castration art) theres issues involved in the web of tags involved in this and foreskin tags as ive discussed in the past as well.

This is reflected additionally in the wiki for all balls tags as well already as well as many using the term already rather than "balls".

Updated

Balls do not need to change. The primary purpose of the pussy change was to remove the derogatory term, balls are not derogatory, that's it.

is the same situation gonna apply to balls -> testicles? It literally is a slang term as well after all?

I think, since the testicles are the internal part, scrotum would probably be the better choice. Though I can't really see this happening any time soon, this one took long enough. (This thread itself is new compared to how long this has been discussed)

This is definitely a problem I've felt many times, where I've felt unnecessarily obscene needing to say pussy even though it was the name of the tag. I think this also aligns a LOT better with the staff always saying "we're an art achive, not a porn website" - if I was in an art gallery and the guide described Gustave Courbet's L'Origine du monde as a "pussy" I would probably be weirded out. It wouldn't offend me personally, I have pretty thick skin, but it would be completely unprofessional behaviour for an art gallery.

While e621 is typically more porn-focused than a bricks-and-mortar art gallery, I still see it as an art gallery of sorts, and expect some level of professionalism from it. It's not hard to use real anatomical terms when those words exist and are widely used. You can have tasteful nudity, tagging those images as "pussy" or "cock" just feels needlessly obscene.

Slang for sexual acts is a tougher problem, often having either no formal name or a weird obscure one that nobody will use. I also doubt you can even have tasteful depiction of a "titfuck" or "pussyjob" so it doesn't seem entirely inappropriate to tag a post with it.

So in another thread it was pointed out that 'vagina' is going to be aliased to 'vulva.' My 2 cents is that I do not think this is a good move. With cutaways and internal views the vagina can be visible when there's no visible vulva.

I think the vast majority of people that would tag vagina will mean vulva, and a disambiguation would just cause unnecessary messes. The vaginal_canal tag is clearer and less prone to misuse, just need to make sure people know it exists.

Leave whatever grudges you have at the door, they aren't helping anyone here

The tag isn't nondescript, everyone knows what balls are, don't pretend like they don't

The only people I've ever heard use "testicles" or "scrotum" are medical professionals, and even they still know what balls are

They people using it for sports balls aren't going to be helped by changing the name, they will still get caught by the alias that would happen

Bottom line, it's inoffensive and not nondescript, there is no reason to change it

Why alias vagina to vulva?

Should forked_pussy be changed to something like forked_vagina or forked_vaginal_canal then?

I had a really hard time taggimg this post because it is a cloaca since everything is in one ring, but you can see the seperation between the vulva and anus. Along with that, you can see the vagina, and clitoris being forked like the penis of the same species.

I couldn't seem to find a tag for forked_clitoris, so I settled on hemiclitores. I couldn't find a tag for forked_pussy or anything like it either, which surprised me. I made the tag before seeing this forum.

jelloponies said:
Is the change only due to pussy being offensive or is it to have a better term to more accurately describe the different parts of the female genitalia?
I had a short discussion with some of the staff on 621 earlier and that was my understanding.

That would in my mind made it so that for example "scotum -> balls" should be unaliased but that's just my two cents.
If the main reason is truly because the word itself is offensive then pussy_floss and pussyjob tags (along with some other) should definitely be changed as well.

The change is primarily because vulva is a much more correct and precise term, and has some benefits such as explicitly excluding the internal vaginal canal, which pussy probably doesn’t, or may not… the actual definition is somewhat nebulous due to being slang. This allows us to tag individual parts of genital anatomy without ambiguity. The crudeness of the term was a secondary (but still important) reason for the change.

I wouldn’t be opposed to changing balls to something else, but that’s not as important as changing pussy. It’s not quite as crude, and doesn’t seem to interfere much with precision in tagging. However, changing a tag this big is a massive effort, and the decision to change pussy did not come lightly. balls might not be perfect, but I don’t see it being worth all the effort to change.

To put it into perspective, pussy had 970k posts last I remember, which at the last time I measured processed 270k posts/16 hours, that's ~58 hours of the servers churning away to process the alias

Balls on the other hand is larger, coming in at 1161k posts, which at the same rate would take nearly 70 hours to churn through

While comparatively it isnt that much more, it's subjecting the servers to another set of multiple days of endless processing, which is not something we should do regularly

donovan_dmc said:

It's hard to tell what type of balls people talking about though. Balls as an object or as a part of a male.

Glad to see this finally go through, overall everything now seems to be aliased to more accurate and appropriate terms. I know it must have taken a lot of effort on part of the OP to track down all the tags, and from the staff to actually implement the change.

ʚ(ϵ⁰~⁰)϶ ...

I don't-- think that's an actual problem. balls has only been mistagged like this ~47 times in the past 13 years and in conversation, context clues should make it pretty clear what's being talked about.

Forgive me for assuming but would this be in reference to non-native English users? Because then I could believe that, especially if they use something like Google Translate because I have no idea if English -> Something is capable of deciding if balls means testicles or not.

While My first thoughts on seeing the change and that there was apparently a big enough issue to warrant such a change is shocking. Was there really a big enough issue with misunderstanding to change years of community habit? after digging around with what I could find, the actual amount of users giving feedback on https://e621.net/forum_topics/46033 seems to have a rather small pool of user input that is of non staff posts. Im more just curious on the actual pool of feedback as I am sure a huge amount of users had no clue that this was even up for consideration.

Though I can appreciate more accurate correct terms once I overwrite years of habit. I am however curious if for such reasons redundant tags will be removed too. such as maleherm. as herm is already shorthand for a medical condition. then adding something like male leaning or female leaning tags. They could be added or even replace tomboys and or maleherm. and female leaning could replace femboy or other such tags.

there's no changing of habit here, the old tagnames will still work in searches and when adding tags. all that's changed is the tag's displayed name and, I guess by extension, how late it appears in places where stuff is sorted alphabetically, otherwise, no functionality has changed.

searching pussy still works and typing it in to the edit box does too, and that will continue to be true into the future. (the same will also be the case for all of the other related tags, once their BURs are sorted out.)

Just curious, since I'm a close watcher of that tag... it seems that, from everything posted within the last two months or so, only half of the posts that were tagged with pussy are tagged with vulva now. Has there been a mishap with the BUR, or was there a change in definition that I missed? Or is the process still ongoing maybe?

I'm sitting here trying to anticipate which tags need to be dealt with on exports to a different Booru, and that's a mighty good question. For any given tag, they have a choice of aliasing to existing tag, or to the new one used by e621. Well, they can also just have tons of nearly identical tags, but that's on them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's a lot of data to be read and changed by the server

it would seem that there are posts that are in a kind of limbo state, where checking they had the tag removed without it being replaced. manually editing any of these posts will have the proper tag applied, this probably means they just haven't been processed yet.

you can see by refreshing this search every so often that there are still posts being processed. for now, I wouldn't worry about it. if there's still limbo posts after that's done then maybe.

There was a brief hiccup today, but I have resolved it.
The process is still ongoing, and is expected to continue for some time yet.

The easiest way to check on the progress is here: https://e621.net/tags/pussy
Once the number there reaches 0, we can move on to other aliases / implications.

the alias is still active if you look at their wikis, the alias page seems to be stuck at "queued", though. probably something to do with that.

I demand that they stop this initiative to eliminate the pussy tag. Well that would affect my muscle memory, because I want to write tags related to pussies, it turns out that the posts I'm looking for are not there. So I want you to revert these changes please.

nothing has been "eliminated", you don't need to change any of your habits. nothing has changed, pussy still works as a tag just as it did before, the only difference is the name displayed in the tag list has changed.

The many many pussy tags are still actively being converted
In due time, when it's all finished, you can resume using pussy tags and the website will work with them. The name change is, for the average user, completely visual

In regards to the balls debate, I do wonder if we ought to change cum to semen. It's not offensive, but it is very crude, much moreso than "balls".

No need to be hasty

What should be done with blood_from_pussy? Should we just go ahead and rename it to hymen_rupture as some have suggested, or rename it to blood_on_vulva or blood_in_vagina?

Blood_from_vagina because it happens from within and is coming out
Like cum_from_vagina *
Just checked and this is correct

I appreciate the change. It always felt weird to have the correct term for male genitalia (penis) but not keep it consistent with female genitalia.

Any name changes in tags will be handled by aliases, which handle everything automatically in the background
Beyond that, new tags will be relegated to tag projects
Just because we have a large number of posts doesn't mean making changes is impossible, there are plenty of Privileged users that contribute to tag projects

Like during the The Great Cub Apocalypse where we established the then new young_<form> tags, I personally scripted ~120,000 additions of the tag

There's nearly 50 individual users with >100,000 post changes (with the top 11 each having >400,000)
https://e621.net/users?search[order]=post_update_count

These things aren't impossible, it just takes desire and manpower (both of which can be hard to come by, but that shouldn't stop us from making changes to benefit the site)

"It's time to destroy pussy." My god that is a fantastic title. 😂

Yah, I 100% agree. I remember WAY back in the day, there was a tag called cuntboy. This was later renamed to andromorph. A far less offensive and more technical correct term. Now obviously pussy is less offensive (or else we'd seen this change happen a decade ago), but the same principle applies.

The only thing I'll miss is the fun alliteration of penis & pussy. But that's a sacrifice I'll gladly deal with.

Can I make one suggestion before the big long list of aliases gets put through? Can we bring back "cleft of venus" as the term for when it's just the slit showing? "Innie pussy" is already not a term I've ever heard, but at least it's consistently informal. "Innie vulva" mixes slang with clinical terminology and sounds especially silly.

By slit do you mean reptilian or vulva?

nin10dope said:

Cleft of Venus refers to a vulva where the labia minora is not showing. So no... Not reptiles. (at least, not the male ones...)

So I understand the desire to update a tag to be less vulgar, but is there any plan to replace it with one that is functionally identical? "Pussy" was a good tag that I liked to use as a sort of catch-all for female genitalia, but it seems to have split into "vulva" and "vagina", depending on context.

You can still use pussy. Vulva is the new catchall tag and pussy will do the same thing it always has

post #5389725

I agree, this whole thing seems entirely unnecessary

There are some aliases not working/missing for animal_vulva tags yet:

ailurid_pussy -> ailurid_vulva (missing in the animal_vulva wiki article)
camelid_pussy -> camelid_vulva
giraffe_pussy -> giraffe_vulva - or - giraffid_vulva (missing in the animal_vulva wiki article)
lagomorph_pussy -> lagomorph_vulva
lutrine_pussy -> mustelid_vulva
mustelid_pussy -> mustelid_vulva
marsupial_pussy -> marsupial_vulva (missing in the animal_vulva wiki article)
porcine_pussy -> porcine_vulva
rodent_pussy -> rodent_vulva

IMHO separate tags for lutrine_vulva (otters) and mustelid_vulva (otters, weasels, minks, badgers, ferrets, stoats, etc.) feels redundant, lutrine_vulva should be an alias of mustelid_vulva. The same thing is present with lutrine_penis and mustelid_penis too.

animal_vulva seems to not imply vulva yet.

I noticed some other aliases missing atm:

hybrid_pussy -> hybrid_vulva
cum_from_pussy -> cum_from_vulva (?)
pussy_ejaculation -> vulva_ejaculation (?)
virle_pussy -> virile_vulva (showing the act of ejaculating virile cum out of a vulva - like from the urethra - upon orgasm. It might be present for andromorphs, females, herms, maleherms. It's not to be confused with female ejaculation or squirting/gushing which doesn't involve virile cum)

There are a lot of pussy related tags still remaining, see: https://e621.net/tags?commit=Search&search%5Bhide_empty%5D=1&search%5Bname_matches%5D=%2Apussy%2A&search%5Border%5D=count

Alright, to my understanding and searching the bur tags, innie_vulva is not to be used in those cases. Just obscured_inner_labia

Just going off the examples on this site so far, there does seem to be a difference between otter and weasel junk, but most artists aren't representing it accurately. Which is a problem when all they have for reference is other artists. Looking through just the mustelid_penis tag, I'm seeing everything from wiggly-worms to long skinny shafts with weird heads to the generic pink banana artists use for any species they're not familiar with. These two reference pics suggest there's a significant difference between just different species of weasel. So it's going to be a mess for some time no matter how we decide to handle it.

Yes, it's a mess already when it comes to mustelid and lutrine genitalia tags combined with the species tags. There's a big variation of animal penises shapes when it comes to mustelids, but I've seen them tagged with for otters that with both, lutrine_penis and mustelid_penis. So maybe it's an implication: lutrine_penis implies mustelid_penis?
They are both not that big of a tag like canine_penis and equine_penis, but feline_penis has some variation to among felines species, but it's just one tag.

mustelid_vulva and lutrine_vulva seems to be very similiar, mostly drawn like a upside-down canine_vulva, but seemingly not that swollen fortune cookie like.

Are the implications still being worked on? I've noticed the entire tree of implications towards animal_genitalia on the vulva side is missing. Canine_vulva doesn't imply canine_genitalia nor animal_vulva, and so on.

Yes, there's quite a bit of variety. In general mustelid penises are long and skinny with a 'hook' at the end due to the baculum, but the exact specifics vary.

If you want to know if any particular alias/implication is here, just open the dropdown menus on the first page

virile_pussy is better aliased to virile_vulva, and cum_from_pussy is better aliased to cum_from_vulva.
In both terms, "pussy" refers to entire female type genitals rather than the vaginal canal.
The cum_from_vagina used to be a sub_term under cum_from_pussy, as "cum from pussy" also includes cumming from vulva urethra. And a "varile pussy" also offer refers to a vulva with a urethra capable of ejaculating semen.

I don't think cum_from_pussy was ever used like you're describing, or if it was it was mistagged. what you're describing sounds like what pussy_ejaculation was used for.

leaking_pussy is another one that's still around. I could have sworn there was a similarly-named tag it ought to be aliased to, but I can't remember it.

Well yeah I guess it isn't anymore, since all those aliases and implications just got nuked. But it was.

There are still a few "callbacks" to it just from lack of betters words and phrasing.

For example, pussyjob doesn't really have a good target that makes sense because the word "pussyjob" is itself slang. Same for pussy_floss.

Skimming through a few posts for pussyjob, intercrural or grinding should cover it. Pussy_floss just looks like a wedgie so that could probly work.

"Pussy" is a crude slang term, and even considered offensive by some.

Not a single person in the history of humanity has been offended by calling a vagina a pussy, barring hyper-puritans who think saying "heck" is still going too far.

Reading some more comments here though, people in charge here are surprisingly puritan for a porn site, so I guess y'all are offended by it. Imagine thinking pussy is a slur.

Must be comfy under that rock you call a house to so brazenly declare that nobody has ever been offended at the slang term for half the planet's population's most intimate body part.

sure, whatever you say, my dude. just ignore all the people who say that they personally have a problem with the word being used, I'm sure they couldn't possibly have any reason or standing to hold that position. also, just entirely ignore every other reason given for the change. we're all just mega puritanical because we want to be able to use neutral language when referring to an anatomical feature.

pussy was an outlier, a fairly vulgar slang term in an ocean of neutral ones. we don't call penis "cock", we don't call toes fucking "grippers", why ought we use pussy?

also, not a porn site, art archive that includes explicit art. the majority of art here is explicit because a large proportion of independently-created furry art is explicit. heck, not even all explicit art here is pornographic.

I vote we replace all of the pussy tags with "cooter"
