Feb 26th:A new bill in Arizona is making its way through the Senate that would force sites like e621 to implement mandatory age verification for all users—or face potential lawsuits. This system would require third-party vendors to verify every user’s age through a government database. Not only is this a massive violation of privacy, but it also introduces serious risks, including identity theft through phishing schemes and other malicious methods. Worse still, we would have no control over ensuring that user data is permanently deleted after verification.
Since e621 operates out of Arizona, this law would almost certainly impact us if it passes. If you want to help ensure that we can continue serving you without being forced to collect personal information, we urge you to contact Arizona’s senators and ask them to vote NO on this bill.
Please help spread the word about this issue and encourage others to take action.

PrivilegedMale, in this case.
"Tag What You See" applies when tagging genders of intersexed characters.

MemberDidn't they change that awhile ago so that if the characters gender is known then it should be tagged as such?

PrivilegedI don't think so. Click for the explanation about genders under "The Debate" in the twys page.
Bear in mind that no tagging system is perfect, and genders are why TWYS ruling exists in the first place.

MemberBut wouldn't that be incorrect tagging? She is a known dickgirl, so wouldn't you tag her as such?

PrivilegedDon't know if you got any clarification of this, so... The problem is that while you might know that the character is a dickgirl, not everyone does (or even care?). The basic idea is that if you do a search for e.g. dickgirl solo you won't get this since there is not really anything in the picture itself suggesting dickgirl (except maybe a big butt). However if you know the character, or stumble across it, you could search for kyra instead and get all pictures of said character no matter what is visible or not in the pictures. This way the blacklists will work and the majority of people will be happy but it will of course never be perfect... But I hope that explains it.

MemberI know right?
user 187329
MemberLook at every other post of this character then tell me she is not a dick girl!
user 187329
MemberHere I got a few air tight arguments that Kyra is a dickgirl, no.1 in every other post she is one.
No.2 her name, and sex... change one thing about a character and it's not the same one (doesn't matter what...) so the name is the same first incorrect tag the characters' sex second, her name the people who changed the intersex tag should change the name too if they really want the character to be male so as male with Kyra character tag incorrect tagging; so either get rid of the name or change the intersex tag back...

MemberBTW I can say this because that's how you get around copyright infringement laws: by changing one thing about anything to songs to characters...

Former StaffWhich is outside information, and therefore completely irrelevant to tagging genders.

Member...whatever...

MemberPulse her boobs can just naturally censored.

Former StaffGo by what the image shows, not by what outside information claims. If you only see male features, then it gets tagged as male.
