MemberWhy does everyone remove my cuntboy tag? The deer character is a cuntboy.
Marflebark
MemberBecause it's TAG WHAT YOU SEE. NOT WHAT YOU KNOW.
There is no obvious cuntboy.

MemberIs that mouse sleeping in his sheath...?
That's... a dream come true.

MemberI imagine it's sleeping in his pouch - anatomically correct kangaroos have their balls resting above their penis
RassyEyefur
MemberYou are correct they do. But do males have pouches?
No, no they do not. But females don't have balls either so I don't know here. It still a touching scene though.

MemberIdk why people downvoted this. There was nothing wrong with asking this question, nor with him stating the gender of his sona in what I’m assuming is his commissioned piece, which he uploaded and tagged himself.
This however came off a little more aggressive than necessary and got upvoted. Not saying it was meant that way, just that it could be misconstrued as such, especially to newer members to the site.
That being said, can someone please explain why if someone uploads art of their own sona where the gender might not be abundantly clear, they can’t tag it with the correct gender? Not trying to fight it, just wondering for future situations and whatnot. I have some art of my own that I may or may not upload. Just trying to get a better understanding of how to tag if the day comes I decide to upload my stuff. Thanks!

Former StaffGenerally speaking, we tag what we see so that the tags are useful for searching. If someone searches 'female' they expect to find females, not males who are said to be female (no offense meant to any transmen or transwomen with that) ... we go strictly off of appearance so that search results will be the most accurate.
That said, you're very welcome to add in the description what the proper gender is. :) I would also recommend making sure the character is properly tagged with a character name so anyone who likes said character can find more art of them easily.
feel free to ask if you have any questions <3

MemberTo be honest there are a couple kangaroos like Nathan as well as my own fursona who are male kangaroos with pouches, also there are actually a couple species of marsupials that have pouches for all genders
RassyEyefur
MemberNow you have me curious, what species of marsupials have pouches on males, I was not aware of any. I wouldn't have thought it served any biological reason.
