He just joined today, and the only thing he's done so far is delete tags from images. I've already undone them.

No? A lot of the removed female tags are cuntboys.

I guess it goes down to the hotly debated question of what's the difference, visually, between a male with a pussy, and a flat chested female/loli?

the idea is, of course, tag what you see, but really, how do you tell them apart?

in some cases it's clear and obvious... but in others? it really isn't. an artist could mess up a face and someone would feel they were right to call it a cunt boy... likewise, any female character without b-cup or larger boobs could be called cunt boy...

I don't think this is a case of vandalism, anyway... consider it a question of frustration from someone who enjoys fixing tags also. It's like that stupid duck/rabbit drawing. Both seem to be right, just depending on how you look at it. We can always pull the character/artist's works in the 'argue' the point, but the ultimate rule is tag what you see.. but... yeah. are there guidelines I dunno about?

Fact of the matter is, that one would usually have to refer to outside-of-e621 resources to actually determine if a character is a "cuntboy". So, when you're faced with the ever-growing-in-popularity superfeminine characters(Which, except on superare occasions, end up being traps), with a flat chest and a pussy, it's all up to the artist's word--which isn't SUPPOSED to matter in tagging unless it's to tag character names--to decide whether it's a "cuntboy" or a female.

What I've come to believe? Genders are so abstract by the terms of the users here that if a guy wanted, they could change a "dickgirl" or "Shemale" to a "Guy with boobs", a herm to a "girl with a raging clitoris", and so on. God forbid the first time we find a loli(shota?) cuntboy and have to categorize it.

At this point, I barely even bother with the gender tags unless it's glaringly obvious, in-your-face genetelia on the screen. Even if there's no penis(albeit also no vajayjay) in a solo picture of an extremely feminine character(with breasts, I might add), if the character has been deemed a "herm" by popular vote then by God, don't call it a female or you'll get analraped and burned in the fur-pit.

Just my two cents. *saunters off*

im with burning heart on this, just tag as you see, if its a trap but you dont see a dick, tough shit.

Maybe... maybe there's a place for tags like "Ambiguous_masculine" and "ambiguous_feminine" to describe such characters.... And ambiguous_gender for characters who are not either obviously. (or are more towards the gray area)... what becomes of 'cuntboy'? Dunno. maybe ambiguous_feminine (ambiguously_feminine?) becomes a descriptive tag... I want to see cuntboys who are ambiguously feminine, as an example... which I imagine would be a different "want' then wanting ambiguously masculine cuntboys.

That said, cuntboys and dick girls are not my fetish, so I don't actually KNOW what the average fan of those might want to specify.

or maybe male/female just needs to go the way of the dodo, and we start tagging 'female' with "feminine_form" "pussy" "breasts" (as appropriate) and males as "masculine_form" "penis" etc.

Then again, that's create more problems then it would fix, and cause more confusion in general, and make it harder to find things.

Not entirely vandalism, but about half of the edits that do anything seem to be problematic.
