Tag Implication: skirt_lift to skirt

Implicating skirt lift to skirt.

Reason: Because you're lifting it?

A slight problem: I took a look through some of the skirt_lift posts and noticed that many of them are actually wearing dresses and should be retagged to dress_lift. It wouldn't be right for those pictures to get the skirt tag.

Other than that, an implication seems alright to me. (Unless there's another liftable 'skirt-like' item I can't think of that is neither a dress nor the skirt, itself.)

I really don't think we need to differentiate between dress lift and skirt lift.

I was wondering about that with one post where a dress was being lifted. I was a bit confused which one to use since skirt_lift is used far more often and with dresses too.

By definition dresses have skirts so skirt_lift works for both.

So I guess we should just have an alias of dress_lift to skirt_lift? That would make things simpler as if you were looking for a dress being lifted you could do a tag search for "dress skirt_lift" anyway.

I think dress_lift should be aliased to skirt_lift, since those two things are extremely similar and generally you'd want to find both of those if you're searching for one. But no implication to skirt, since we just established it could be a dress that's getting lifted (or maybe a big T-shirt or sweater, etc.).

I have no issue with aliasing dress_lift to skirt_lift, though I think we could use a tag to cover a lift where the navel or higher is exposed because of the lift (something like post #361965 or post #391553).

Ah. That's a good point...

Couldn't you just use skirt_lift navel or skirt_lift midriff?

I think I emphasized the wrong part by saying navel. Images like post #361965 or post #391553 are practically a shirt_lift instead of the average skirt_lift due to how high the dress has been lifted, I was thinking a tag for something like that would be nice.

Though if need be, perhaps expand the definition of shirt_lift to include those kinds of images.

Aliasing dress_lift to skirt_lift is alright with me as well, for the reason wanchan mentioned. Since dress lift already had ~500 tags, I presumed it was an accepted tag. So when I made my first response, I based it on what we already had. (I need to stop doing that.)

Of course, that'll mean that we shouldn't implicate skirt_lift to skirt, unless we want to also implicate dress to skirt for consistancy, but that seems pointless and unnecessary.

I changed my mind (I'm prone to doing that). I'm voting against aliasing dress_lift to skirt_lift. I think perhaps dress_lift should be reserve for images depicting a lift of the outfit (dress) that would reveal above the waist. In essence when the focus of the lift goes from just revealing the crotch to also revealing the upper body like in a shirt_lift.

I tag images I upload as dress lift if the character is wearing a dress with a floor-level hem which is being lifted to around the waist area. I tag images as skirt lift when the garment in question has a hem whose original position is above the knee. That's pretty simple, I should think.

I agree that skirts and dresses are different. And it won't necessarily be the case that girls with skirts will have exposed bellies.

Maybe hemline_lift?

0xCCBA696: there are long skirts and short dresses.

I would alias dress_lift to skirt_lift and not implicate skirt_lift to skirt.

This is my vote.

I'm for the alias and against the implication as well. After all skirt lift applies to dresses as well since dresses have skirts.
