Hi @fuckriri1234 Thanks for the proposition. eee well... this is actually a very good example because it forced me to think about whether I actually understand what I’m proposing I’m not sure I don’t think it counts, it’s more like bullying but on the other hand, there is page 12 eeee to be honest, i’m not sure I deliberately made the tag description broad so that it would be universal technically, your work does fall under “inferior being” however, I have good news, a solution to this problem already exists :P people can vote on whether a given tag fits a particular work so even if I personally think it doesn’t as long as enough other people think it does, the tag will be added to gallery

@Parafraza dyt this counts? it's not as extreme as your examples, but i think pg12 and beyond qualifies it (tw loli)

@fuckriri123 sooooo yeah, this is going to be a lot of text :') the description and the main idea behind this tag were that it represents a process so if a work begins with a human character being treated as less than human, then no, it wouldn't qualify as dehumanization as for changing the description to the version you suggested "A character who is stripped [...]", then your example would indeed fall under the tag's definition however, in my opinion, the tag would lose of its meaning for cases like the one you mentioned, there are already existing tags that can be used, such as slave or human cattle what we currently don't have is a tag that specifically indicates a process I'll copy the example I used before A good comparison would be the tags "pregnant" and "impregnation." "Pregnant" is a state when a woman is pregnant :P And "impregnation" is the process or action that makes a woman pregnant. That's why I think this tag has its own place

Fest :) I think that's all of his publicly available work of course, there is more on his private profile I recommend supporting him

Examples for "slave" tag In this, there is an examples of dehumanization because we have a.... lets call it normal state and a slave state. We can also see the process of turning someone into a slave: And these are examples without dehumanization, the person is already a slave:

Yes, I know there is also a "slave" tag and "human cattle," etc. But there is a difference, as I said in the description, this is a process. A good comparison would be the tags "pregnant" and "impregnation." "Pregnant" is a state when a woman is pregnant :P And "impregnation" is the process or action that makes a woman pregnant. That's why I think this tag has its own place and does not exclude the others, including the aforementioned "slave".
