April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberI don't see how "cboy" is a slur, but boy have I heard similar sentiment elsewhere.
Cute belly and clit, but whinging over pronouns...? Ehhh.
PS: why do I see the bottom portion of breasts? Dysphoria?

BlockedNo slurs needed when you have vagina right in your face.

MemberWhat happened to tag what you see?
rohto
MemberSomeone's probably going to come along and add the tag eventually - otherwise the picture won't have a gender tag in accordance with the rules of the site. But you aren't alone in not being a fan of the word.
We do have an ftm tag, which from the FA description looks like it might be appropriate.

MemberWould the intersex tag be appropriate instead of cboy?

MemberCuntboy wouldn't work as those are definitely boob curves at the top of the image.
The "Tag What You See" rule makes it Female, regardless of the original artist's intent.
Anonthemouses
MemberTag what you see is the binding rule here.
It's how the tagging system works. Even if the artist claims this is actually a dickgirl whith a detachable dick, it should still be tagged as female.

Former StaffTag what you see. This is a female.

Blockedi will always be confused as to why people are offended by labels for porn
Ratte
Former StaffSo if I see this change from female to anything else I'll be giving you a record.
Were I you I would not do that.

MemberI agree with this... and as a man who's been dating another male for well over a year, I am proud of the word faggot. And use it openly to refer to other gays
just as Black people took a racial slur and made it to mean friend... I'm doing exactly the same
if every community did this with the words used against them then nobody would be offended by anything as we'd all be comfortable with those words. That is the world i'd rather live in in all honesty
Rather then get fussy over petty shit like mouth sounds.
Just sayin ;3

BlockedNot that it matters but I updated the tags. You're welcome :)

MemberMel, i know you'll probably never see this especially since this is an older post, but the trans representation is a m a z i n g in your art. also i didn't know i had a kink for possum pouches till i seen Jesse

AdminEveryone: *comments about gender and how they are related to on-site tagging*
Me, an intellectual: haha, poss puss
zoophoria
MemberThe comments on this post make me distressed lmao
This is so old but y'all are mean, that's clearly a dude xD Intention of art goes into a lot, actually!

MemberIf were going to cling to the subjective ass "tag what you see" approach around here we really, really need to figure out a solution to situations like this. Something that can still be descriptive while not being disrespectful to artists
It isnt 2010 anymore, ya know?
