I am confused
Basically it's a question of whether NSFW works involving trans characters should be tagged as Transgender
+NSFW
+Yuri/Yaoi/Het
(assuming there's no seperate yuri/yaoi/het pairing in the same work) or as simply Transgender
+ NSFW
. We could potentially add tags for transcentric subgenres (eg. Trans-yuri
) as better indicators of content, but there might not be enough works to warrant those just yet.
I don't like the "Transgender + Yuri/Yaoi/Het" tag combo because it could mean the work has transgender relationships or both transgender and cisgender relationships. The reader has no idea, especially since the vast majority of Yuri/Yaoi/Het tags on Dynasty Scans are cisgender.
The fact that Dynasty Scans went with "Transgender' + Yuri/Yaoi/Het" and not "Transgender + NSFW" means we value defining the gender of the relationships high enough to tag it. In that case I think it is perfectly fine to let the reader know if the relationships are cisgender or transgender with tags. I would go with these tags:
"Yuri" "Yaoi" "Het" = cisgender relationships
"Trans-yuri" "Trans-yaoi" "Trans-het" = transgender relationships
"Transgender' + Yuri/Yaoi/Het" is playing genital roulette.
