countershade_breasts

That would be where the breasts themselves have two different colors that create a shading pattern. If the breasts as a whole are a single color, which is distinct from the rest of the torso, that's not countershade breasts (or necessarily countershading, depending on the overall pattern for countershade_torso).

For post #5550618 specifically, perhaps countershade_chest would be most applicable, since the white coloring also goes to the upper chest and neck, and a little bit underneath the breasts. The breasts contribute to the upper torso having a countershade pattern, but since the breasts themselves are wholly white, there's no countershading on the breasts themselves (this is part of why I think these more specific countershade_<bodypart> tags need to be aliased away; they're often misused to mean <bodypart> is a separate flat color, perhaps contributing to the countershading of what they're part of, but doesn't itself have a countershade pattern).

Please read that tag's wiki before stating what it's for. Because what you said is completely incorrect.

countershade_breasts: When a character's breasts are a different color from the rest of the main color(s) on a character's body.

The countershade_breasts wiki is wrong if it says that, since that's not what countershading is. Read the wiki for countershading:

a region of a body part is covered by a lighter / darker color that contrasts with the main body color.

See also wikipedia:

Countershading, or Thayer's law, is a method of camouflage in which an animal's coloration is darker on the top or upper side and lighter on the underside of the body.

The breasts being their own solid color would not be countershade breasts, as that's not a countershade pattern. They can contribute to a countershade chest/torso, but don't themselves have a countershade pattern. Compare to countershade_torso, which doesn't mean when the torso is it's own solid color different from everything else, but when the torso has a countershade pattern. Again, this is why I think these more specific countershade_<bodypart> tags need to go away since they misunderstand countershading and are misused to mean something different.

It also wouldn't be a good idea to abuse the term "countershade_x" to mean "x is a different color" since countershading, as its name implies, is a shading pattern, creating a distinction between light and dark areas. A bright red body with bright green breasts wouldn't be any form of countershading as they'd be of equal brightness, it would simply be a distinct color. Finding or creating tags for "x specifically is a different color from the surrounding body" would be a better endeavor.

You can make a topic about your objections with the countershading tags, but until the tags wikis reflect that, don't spread misinformation that directly contradicts them. This topic is not the place to debate animal kingdom ideas. The tag does not mention pattern at all. It says a lighter or darker color, including the wiki you quoted just now, which the image contains.

tag wikis describe a tag's use. if the description on the wiki is consistent with the tags use, it's not wrong. maybe the tag's name is misleading, but that'd be an issue for another thread.

The tag wiki is not gospel. countershade_breasts implies countershading, so tagging countershade_breasts on posts that just mean 'breasts are a different color' causes the post to be mistagged with countershading. It is directly relevant to the question posed in this thread of what to tag when breasts are a different color, as tagging countershade_breasts for that will cause mistags regardless of what its wiki says, so shouldn't be done. Don't worry, I'll be making a thread to discuss how to handle this issue, but it's best to not leave people with inaccurate information that leads to mistags (especially when the issue eventually gets fixed and they don't see the corrections, as they continue doing as they were previously advised).

What part of this image tells you that countershading, implied by countershade_breasts, is a mistag? When you've said yourself that the definition of countershading is

a region of a body part is covered by a lighter / darker color that contrasts with the main body color.

post #5550618
You're telling me that isn't a lighter color that contrasts the main body color?

nin10dope said:

I didn't say that particular image would be mistagged with countershading, but images where the breasts are the same brightness and just a different color, which would inevitably happen if applied to various possible color combinations where the breasts are different from the surrounding body.

As it is, it seems the current use of countershade_breasts isn't even aligned with its wiki.

When a character's breasts are a different color from the rest of the main color(s) on a character's body.

But the vast majority have breasts that are the same color as the front of the main body, basically whenever countershade_torso is applicable, making it little different than "countershade_torso for characters with breasts". The number of uses where the breasts are a distinct color from the body is very minimal (some, not all, images of this character, for example), there a few where the main body is covered so you can't see if the breasts are different (e.g. post #3900227) and even the breasts themselves are largely covered along with the body (e.g. post #3887312).

So it's not even useful for when breasts are a separate color from the rest of the body. There are a few instances of actual countershade breasts (e.g. post #4497006 post #5401729), which are impossible to search for given all the other posts with that tag.

As I said, I will. It's going to take a little bit for me to formulate my thoughts and suggestions in a proper post. In the mean time, I was responding to the assertion that it was fine to use according to its wiki when someone asked what to use for breasts colored differently from the body.

Is there any tag to replace dominant_femboy?

It now just forces you to use the regular femboy tag but... I want to find content with dominant femboy. How do you do that without the dominant_femboy tag?

nin10dope said:
You're likely using the wrong word to describe the condition then. Pent_up is another way of saying that someone is sexually repressed.

No, it isn't. pent_up is a physical symptom of abstinence. Sexual repression is a psychological motivation for abstinence.

Maybe I'll make a set for it. It's probably hard to make it work with TWYS...

There's josou_seme. I remembered it being mentioned here, but I had to look it up because I forgot what it was called. It's not nearly as easy to remember as dominant_femboy, but it's the best I could find.

That is the correct tag, as it means the exact same thing in practical usage.

I was going to say we already have a tag for this, but actually we have THREE: strip game, strip meme and twitter strip poll. None of which seem like good names for it since (A) it often involves more than stripping, (B) it's not just on Twitter anymore (and officially there's no such thing as Twitter anyway), and (C) calling it a "game" or a "meme" isn't descriptive enough. I like "engagement farming" honestly, cynical as it may seem.

Is there anyway to filter out lengthy dialogue scenes?
Like, moments during videos where there isn't really anything sexual going on - to put it bluntly, scenes that function as more of a plot device rather than having sex.
Three good examples of this would probably be post #2748675 , post #5446244 , and post #5547679 . They all feature moments of practically uninterrupted pure dialogue, without any "substance", so to speak. (Like, I wanna see you have sex! Not chatter about it!)
I'm fine with characters talking whilst it goes on, just nothing so exposition-y.
