groin kick to tamakeri?

Posted under General

Why do we have to limit tamakeri to only those that appear as a sexual fetish? We don't use that for our definition of guro and I'm pretty sure we have other terms refer to a sexual fetish but we use in a broader sense to refer to even similarly related material.

I'm not sure how you guys can draw a line between it as a sexual fetish and it as a depiction of a guy getting kicked in the groin, a person viewing such images for sexual arousal would find both just as a appealing and there will be more gray areas between what is sexual and what isn't than what will be clearly divided.

To me this one doesn't look like he's enjoying it.

These ones however, with the blush and facial expression. Does look like his enjoying it.

I can understand tagging some of the pics with them, but certain not all of them were meant to be pleasurable to the character receiving the kicking or stomping. So is this going to be used to define a fetish for the viewers sake, or a fetish for the character?

Everyone has their own definition of what is cute/moe to themselves, but the tags aren't really used.

If anything it ought to be an implication of tamakeri -> goin_kick, tamakeri being used in the case of sexual implications as pointed out above. There's little point in having a tag if hardly anyone knows what it is and there's a more plausible english alternative that would come to anyone's mind. That said, crotch_stomp -> groin_kick could also be argued, but I think the other ones are distinct enough to stand on their own and be implicated to some parent tag in the future.

ouch would probably be better off as a pool though.
