What kind of etiquette should we have about cross-posting porn? Though now that I've written it out, I guess this is more about trans content than anything (burggit.moe)

For the past few weeks, I've been making an effort to cross-post more, in order to make sure that communities that I'm interested in have some content and attention. I've been primarily focused on keeping up a steady stream of posts to !teen_loli, but a lot of those also fit in on !rapehentai and !incest_hentai, and occasionally !bdsm_hentai_and_art or !bluearchive. I tend to stick to just posting to the two most relevant communities for any given post, though.

I also created and have been posting to !dickgirl_hentai, but I tend to refrain from cross-posting those elsewhere. I get the feeling that maybe people don't want to see those posts, even if their fetishes are otherwise involved?

It feels like I'm creating/following a weird double-standard though. For rape/incest/etc content, I just tag the fetish in the title so that those that don't want to see it can avoid clicking. I don't think of trans women as a fetish though, so it feels weird to warn about them? Additionally, the original creator of !incest_hentai designated it as trans-inclusive (and I've done the same with !teen_loli), so it's extra-weird to avoid cross-posting there, which is what got me thinking about this in the first place. What do?

As an aside, the name of !dickgirl_hentai has also been bothering me. I originally went with that because it's what booru sites typically use to differentiate transgirl futanari from intersex. It feels kind of offensive though? Is there a better name that would still get the point across? Am I overthinking this?

Comments that were lost to the time warp

Me:

The description that I have in the sidebar of !dickgirl_hentai is

Girls. With dicks!

So maybe just “girlswithdicks_hentai” for a new community name?

Doesn’t really work as general terminology though, at least if we want something shorthand. I’ve been using “futa” in post titles. Playing around with a recent one:

  • Futa dominating two other girls (original title)
  • Girl with dick dominating two other girls
  • FPWP dominating two other girls
  • Girl dominating two other girls

These all feel varying degrees of awkward. I think I’d likely just try to come up with an entirely different title if I’m trying to avoid using “futa”.

Mousepad:

If you like that new community name, I find it reasonable!

I feel I should clarify: To describe art, if the character being described is a futa, I have no problem calling them that. My issue with the term is when it is used to:

  1. Describe real people,
  2. Describe canonically transgender characters (e.g. Bridget from Guilty Gear), or
  3. Describe all FPPWP as a catch-all (overlap with 2 here).

So I think the current post title is completely fine (assuming 2 does not apply; I do not recognize the character if so). Contrast this with terms like “trap,” which I would prefer to never see in any context, for the reason I mentioned in my reply to PB’s comment. Better terms for that do exist (femboy seems fine)!

Thanks again for making this post. It’s something I’ve been thinking about for a while, but I didn’t want to bring it up myself for fear of being “annoying,” or similar.

    @Burger@burggit.moe Is it possible to change community names from the administrative side without too much hassle (and without breaking federation)? Or should I just create a new community and signpost it?

    I can more than easily do it via manually going into the DB and changing the name. But I'm almost certain that it will break federation for this community. Hopefully someone else will chime in who knows more about activitypub than I do who can set the record straight.

    Figured that might be the case. I'll go with the signpost option tomorrow night if nothing new comes up.

    I thought on it more. What would likely happen is that while the community name would be updated here, on other instances it won't be. Every instance has the community names stored in their local DB and there's a flag that says whether the community is remote or local. I don't think changing it will work at all, I'm afraid. There'd need to be some "message" that this instance sends out to other instances to update the name, and manually changing it through the DB definitely won't trigger it.
