Background Pony #C997
@Damaged  
I don’t know if this is entirely relevant but both flutterpunk and metalshy are older tags that predate this latest outfit by years.
 
This also isn’t the first time we’ve seen this outfit for Fluttershy. It showed up a year ago in Rollercoaster of Friendship and the predominant tag being used on it back then was flutterpunk:  

 
That doesn’t mean a different tag couldn’t be used, of course. That’s just carrying a previous tagging trend forward.

I thought the official Derpi stance was that EqG characters don’t get any human tags– even though they refer to themselves as “human” in universe– in order to separate them from images of humanized characters which have nothing to do with EqG.

Reminds me I should make those tailed/horned equestria girls tags so I don’t need to keep tagging the humanization versions on my stuff.

Except when they’re drawn with regular human dimensions or anime dimensions, then they get the appropriate tags for those but not equestria girls.
 
Just because it’s Sunset Shimmer or SciTwi doesn’t mean they automatically get the Equestria Girls style tag.

The latest design of Fluttershy is turning into a little bit of a mess.
Should these be tagged metalshy or flutterpunk? From the video, I got the impression it was a death metal band she was going to see, but people seem to be insistent about tagging this new style with a punk tag. The vibe I’m getting is that people just don’t know what a punk look is.
EDIT: Oh, and add usual rant about people tagging safe images with breasts and girls with C cups as busty*.
 
And now it’s got goth on it too. I give up. We might as well just alias flutterpunk and metalshy together. People seem completely unable to tell the difference between them.

Considering how much people constantly call me goth and not emo like I really am, I can see that.
 
Yes all these things share some traits but there are stark differences between them, generally based on context.

I saw someone add the tag “brutalshy”. It was swiftly removed by someone else not long after, but something like that would certainly solve the issue of arguing musical genre.
