MemberWell shit... I've never noticed that tag existed before...
Only problem with that is if a lesbian couple is fucking right next to a gay couple. Some of zombieme's orgies are the best shit ever and would likely get filtered.
Imo the best solution would be to simply not tag stuff in the background. I've searched certain r34 characters before and found images where the character is in a poster on the wall. Not very logical to me to tag something that's not the subject matter of the image unless the tag relates to the background like "simple background", etc.

Memberactually in all of the art of these two that i've seen i think there is only one where he was actually knotted. and thats just an alt of the original where he wasnt knotted.

Membergood sir or madam can you define this word for me please? i don't think i have ever heard it before.

MemberWell, the rule is "tag what you see" so..
PringlePromp
MemberYeah but but then again, most people are gonna tag "gay" cuz that's what they see. And we got a slap on the wrist for doing that.
BlueMoonstruckWolf
MemberWell, gay is rather ambiguous...
It's been misused a lot.

PrivilegedPiebald is simply a description for the color pattern where you have white (unpigmented) areas with pigmented areas (traditionally black).
You should get more creative with your blacklist. If you don't want gay stuff, but want lesbian stuff no matter what else might be going on you should e.g. use male/male -female/female. Or maybe you only have a trouble with the more explicit stuff then add rating:e to that, sure it's a bit of a chore, but in the end I think everyone is better off for it.
Also in case it wasn't clear already:
gay = male/male
lesbian = female/female
Looking "gay" or "lesbian" or whatever doesn't make you gay, or well it can but not in that way.

Memberlets play a game of will it fit
question one: is it furry porn?
if yes the answer is probably also yes.

MemberSo you're saying that if I put "male/male -female/female -male/female" all on the same line or something, the last two will negate the first one even if all 3 (or MM+FF/MM+MF) are present on the same image? If that's the case then I might be able to whip up something that'd work for me. Problem is I don't see a "female solo" tag anywhere. Only "female" and "solo" separately. Unless there's some way to do something like "male/male -male/female -female/female -(female solo)". I'll have to look if there's documentation on the blacklist somewhere as I've never bothered touching it for fear of blacklisting something I do want to see.

Yes, that's correct. I'd say think of negatives (-) in blacklist as "blacklist only if" and placing tags on the same line as "and" (in contrast to separate lines which means "or", or simply separate rules if you like that better).
So:
male/male -female/female -male/female
becomes more verbosely:
blacklist if male/male and only blacklist if not female/female and only blacklist if not male/female
i.e. a full massive bisexual orgy will still show up using this rule despite having "gays" because it has "straights" and "lesbians" in it and hence does not follow the rule set up and is hence not blacklisted.
As far as I know you cannot do "grouping" in the blacklist. However, most images tagged solo will only have one character in them, so that's not really a huge problem, the only exceptions might be posts with multiple_images and related tags on them and possibly some video and flash files (or mistagged posts).
Additionally that could possibly be partly solved by using solo -female or similar on its own line, i.e. this will not necessarily stop you from seeing things you don't want (e.g. solo males with minor female appearances), but it will not hide things you want to see (e.g. solo females), which seemed to be of concern for you.
It might feel like the blacklist is a complete science but I'd suggest reading blacklist help (found linked at the blacklist) and simply doing some experimentation (i.e. actively searching for things that you think your blacklist should catch). The blacklist isn't going to bite you and if it doesn't work like you want then you can just edit it again.
