I think it’s a little too speculative, despite the posing and them being on the bed. They very well could just kiss and cuddle, which I think would fly in a G-rated movie, and thus should be within Safe. An immediate scene cut to imply sex would probably require PG, but the image doesn’t tell us what comes next, hence it being speculative.
I’ll definitely have to check with some mods on this.
As a note on PG-13, it can get away with more than you might expect on short sex scenes, like in one of the Twilight movies where there’s a bit of humping and moaning and bed movement. PG-13 is roughly analogous to Questionable for our purposes.

Pretty sure it’s Safe. The dance movement itself isn’t that bad, and if she’s pantsless, we’re really just seeing a weird flat area, much like the anatomy of ponies in the show.

Does the mention of rape here elevate the rating beyond “safe”?

For what it’s worth, this picture is basically the same joke and it was tagged both suggestive and semi-grimdark.
That was five years ago and the tag changes weren’t made by a staff member though, so I’m curious about the verdict as well.

Doesn’t matter on ratings as long as it’s relatively normal.
@Background Pony #B065
Yes.
@Knight of the Raven
Semi-grimdark might be a bit much here.

I don’t think so. I set it to Suggestive for now.

Questionable requires something to be actually visible, not just areas of skin, and I don’t see anything peeking through the clothes here.

Uncovered labia around a thin strip of cloth covering the inner bits of the vulva is not Questionable?

Rated as safe for the moment.
Am I imagining things, or does she have a little bit of vulva visible? The linework is a little rough so I can’t tell for certain if that was intentional or just an accidental extra scribble.

Looks like a vulva cleavage to me. There’s little reason to have a line mid-pubis other than to denote the cleavage, unless you also run a midline through other parts of the body to keep tabs on symmetry, and there’s no sign of that being the case.

Oh I see, yes that should be Questionable, then.
@Background Pony #B065
Looks like a vulva to me, should be Questionable or Explicit. I’ll poke around a bit to be sure which.

Yes. The person who changed I think is someone who tends to rate overly sensitively.

Kinda similar instance >>2609195
Maybe they just like drawing a line there because that’s where a line would normally be irl? Still makes it at least questionable

I wouldn’t be entirely confident on Questionable here, actually. I’ll try and get this and the other images sorted out soon.

Changed this from suggestive to explicit.. just wanna make sure that was okay >>2632526

Hey Princess Luna, question about safe vs questionable in vore. I noticed you changed >>2629468 to get a safe rating and left >>2629469, the x-ray/internal version, as questionable. At first I thought that having an internal is sufficient/necessary to get the higher rating, but then I noticed that >>2610152 is also safe (changed from suggestive).
If (well, when) I submit more vore in the future, is there a decent rule of thumb (rule of hoof?) to go by as to when to tag it safe, suggestive, or questionable? I’m fine just taking a guess and letting you sort it out later, but it may be helpful to know for sure.

Looks Explicit (or at the very least Questionable) to me.
@dzamie
That’s for the stomach walls squeezing on the consumed party, not just any internal view. The idea is that something like this from Digimon, or this from Wander Over Yonder should be Safe-rated instead because there isn’t some kind of highly-sexual “stomach massage” going on, just normal cartoon shenanigans. Questionable is also used for certain similar things like tongues doing something pretty risque (>>1998530).
Suggestive meanwhile is for if there’s a little something to sexualize things, like drool getting all over the prey during consumption (>>2610051), pushing against the full belly (>>2619784), or “hey look at my fatter butt” and gurgles and such (>>2598893). Suggestive also should be covering some internal view stuff where the stomach walls are dripping with fluids around the prey, but not really squeezing them (so >>2624527 should probably be Suggestive), but this is all part of a relatively recent ratings guidelines change, so it’ll take some time to get everything correct; I will note, however, that about 80% of vore uploads are following the new guidelines correctly.

So wouldn’t the safe external one I linked be Suggestive, or is it still Safe because Gallus is more resting his talons on his belly than pushing them in?
Also, then, same-size vore with internals would always be at least questionable, right?

Yes, it’s not a heavy pushing. Not necessarily always, the Wander Over Yonder example is same size vore that’d be Safe, it’s mainly a matter of how internals interact with the characters; very realistic stuff would generally be Questionable.

Nightmare fuel can be fine, but body horror is a bit much. Should probably be Semi-grimdark or Grotesque.
