Talk:gender change
From EHWiki
Canon Gender
- A characters main gender is considered their canon gender, even if in the source material they can swap.
- For example, ranma saotome is a male character, who can transform into a female. Because his canon gender is that of a male, any galleries showing him as a female will count as m:gender change and m:gender morph.
- When depicted as a male, f:gender change or f:gender change does not qualify, as his canon gender is not female.
Cosplay Galleries
- Cosplayers appearing visually as a different gender (e.g. a male cosplayer photoshopped into a female) are tagged with gender change. The namespace is based on the cosplayer's original gender.
- Fetish tags are tagged based on the cosplayer's visual gender.
- Gender change and crossdressing may apply based on the character. For instance:
- A male cosplaying as a female character in female clothes, while visually being male.
- Tag f:gender change as it is a female character gender bent as male.
- Tag m:crossdressing as the character is a male in female clothes.
- All other fetish tags would be male.
- A male cosplaying as a female character in female clothes, while visually being female.
- Tag m:gender change as the cosplayer's visual gender differs from his actual gender.
- Crossdressing would not apply as it is a female character in female clothes.
- All other fetish tags would be female.
- A male cosplaying as a male character in female clothes, while visually being male.
- Do not tag gender change as no gender changing was involved.
- Tag m:crossdressing as the male character is in female clothes.
- All other fetish tags would be male.
- A male cosplaying as a female character in female clothes, while visually being male.
Additional notes
- A cosplayer that has transitioned to a new gender, while visually appearing to be said gender, count as that gender for the purpose of the cosplayer gender change tag.
- Example: A female cosplayer that has transitioned to a male, and visually looks male, makes a cosplay set photoshopped to appear to be female. m:gender change for the cosplayer would apply.
