We've started adding aliases for tags that have no purpose or show a lack of objectivity so as to reduce tag clutter. For instance, everything Kitsu~ uploads is tagged with furry, which is a silly tag considering that we have to remove loads of "image is not furry" moderation requests every week.

The only other one in there right now is for "Sexy".

Documented in the Wiki. Do update.

Would it be possible to suggest other tags to alias? For instance, it could just be me, but I don't see much point for the "sex" tag, considering the vast majority of the content on the site.

Also, would it be possible to have "homosexual" alias to "gay"? It seems strange to have both, since they're typically used interchangeably.

Lesbian is homosexual too

And then we add "not_sex" to every other image? I think, tags should describe what's going on in the picture and not what is not going on.

There's actually quite a lot of stuff on this site that's not sex. First of all, there's over 5000 "safe" images, then there's another 7500 that's solo, in which there's normally not sex. Those two alone make up roughly 40% of the site, and that's not counting all of the other pictures, not all of which contain sex.
