Support. They're surprisingly common.
I've been trying to tag missing genders, and this implication would save some time..

Faceless male... really?

There is actually a male cat char without a face on here somewhere....I cant find it though, so that tag might be useful :v

Bumping, because I have one question about this tag, and I'd rather recycle old thread than create new.

When I first saw this tag I thought that it should be used for pictures like:
post #63881
where place where face place is visible, but there is no face there. However it is used here for every male where for whatever reason face is not visible. Does this tag is supposed to be used like that? If yes, then probably implication disembodied_penis -> faceless_male should be made.

Like it says on the wiki, faceless_male is used when "you can see a male in the picture, but the male's face is out of sight, concealed, or completely nonexistent."

Whereas disembodied_penis is tagged for images such as these:
post #361745 post #360821

Just a penis, without a torso.

Disembodied_penis implies male - therefore IMO it can be assumed that by looking at disembodied_penis I see a male. And by definition of disembodied penis male's face (and rest of body) is out of sight.

There are also a lot of pictures tagged by faceless male when only penis, or penis and hands are visible.

It's not a tag that I personally use for searches, so I'm ambivalent about that implication. But faceless male isn't exactly the first thing that pops into my mind when I see those disembodied penises... would be good to hear opinions from someone who actually uses the tag.

It's already implicated to male, and that might be enough.

There are also a lot of pictures tagged by faceless male when only penis, or penis and hands are visible.

Yep, looks like it's gotten a bit messy recently. Those should be tagged with disembodied_penis (and disembodied_hand).

Going by this, shouldn't the disembodied_penis tag be deimplicated from male? We ave no reason to believe they're male for sure, aside from it being a dick. Could be a dickgirl, herm, or male.

but if a solo male is being penetrated by a disembodied penis it gets tagged gay, unless you think that shouldn't be the case, I'm not trying to say you're wrong, I dont feel disembodied penises should imply male either.

That's anal_sex, and while I can see some arguing that the guy getting fucked is gay for being submissive and liking anal (which is dumb), it's not gay. "solo male anal" blacklists that just fine if you don't want to see that.

I want to remind you that according to current rules each disembodied_penis counts as character. So disembodied_penis on male should not be tagged as solo.

Fine, then "disembodied_penis male anal" :P

Since we're on the topic of disembodied penises, I suppose this is a good place to ask.

How should the species on images such as this be tagged:
post #412424

Disembodied humanoid penis. Is that enough to tag the image as human, considering that many (most?) furries also have that type of penis? Personally, I'd just tag it as disembodied_penis+humanoid_penis, but it'd be good to have some standard for this.

Use unknown_species, humanoid_penis, and disembodied_penis for the dick.
