Topic: Tag implication: written_consent_clothing -> explicitly_stated_consent

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The tag implication #66271 written_consent_clothing -> explicitly_stated_consent is pending approval.

Reason: the explicitly_stated_consent wiki page dictates that written_consent_clothing is an acceptable tagging criterion

i can easily imagine a scenario in which a character wearing such an article of clothing is not consenting, perhaps because it was put on them by someone else, but i would probably make that as a change to the wiki

first of all, clothing can be, like, not worn, and it'd still be taggable.

second of all... ʚ(ϵ⁰~⁰)϶

the idea of just tagging explicitly_stated_consent on any character wearing clothing that says something about consent seems-- dubious. at best.

like, consent needs to be given by the individual directly. while most of the time you can assume that a character is wearing something that a) they put on themselves and b) are aware of the meaning of the words on said clothes, that cannot be guaranteed. there are definitely situations where this tag could be used but actual consent is not communicated.
