Reason: I'm surprised this didn't exist already. (Will make more quickly.)

EDIT: I'll change all the ones I made on this thread if skinny and slim get aliased.

Updated

What is the difference between slim and skinny? I'm not seeing much.

Well it seems that the difference is slim to none

Honestly I'm just keeping up with current standards. I don't know either

Perhaps they should be aliased together?

They probably should, but I'm not going to be the one to rock the boat. Someone more experienced can do that.

slim has the aliases, one of which you've made for it, so aliasing towards t seems like a good idea.

I might have to change half of what I made here, but that's a good idea.

Similar to the specifications of wide_hips referenced here topic #44287 and here topic #45538 , I also argue there should be no gender or bodyform specification for slim, emaciated and skinny. They should all be aliased to their parent tags(slim, emaciated, skinny).

Also there is some debate whether or not slim and skinny are meaningfully different, I personally do say there is a difference but it can be visually very slim(no pun intended).

I disagree. While I understand that we shouldn't have a tag for every combination of features a character/object for practical reasons, there is clearly demand to specify characters with a specific gender/figure combinations. As these are incredibly intertwined for specific appeal.

If you disagree, please make your own BURs. You can even put them in this thread if you want. (By putting the thread's ID (47227) in the "form topic" section.) I can't stop you.

Are you also arguing there should be no gender/form specification for slightly chubby, and the overweight tags/subtags?

I use and feel like the 'weight_gender' tags are rather useful. Also variants for skinnier than normal characters should be fine too.
