Tag implication: shibari -> bondage and rope

shibari -> bondage
shibari -> rope

Reason: Shibari is a specific type of bondage using ropes.

Some images that are under shibari that do not involve ropes: post #373888 (ribbon), post #91032 (vine), post #443680 (tape measure), post #604678 (swimsuit strap), post #1014650 (chain).

This was also under shibari, but wasn't sure if these should be under the tag post #134369 (leather strap outfit) and post #107539 (Christmas lights).

There's also post #288477 and post #517673. The girls in the posts aren't tied up at all, but their tanlines suggest they have.

I know that the first of those two posts have already discussed this, but I don't think that those kinds of posts should be marked as shibari. I mean, when you search for shibari, you're going to be looking for people being tied up.

Yeah, seems to me like an image with no actual person currently tied up like those tanline ones completely misses the purpose of the tag in the first place.

The images are still about it, though, and heavily imply that it took place. Even if it's not technically in the image I don't think someone would looking for it would be disappointed in finding that in a tag search, and it would be difficult to find without the tag, as well.

For those same reasons, I think the implication to bondage should still take place. Even if you don't think they should count, they're insignificant noise and there really isn't a better way to tag them.

piespy's post in forum #19559 is relevant here.
