This tag implies sexually explicit or suggestive (not safe for work) artwork of boys who are or appear to be pre-adolescent. Please note it doesn't matter whether the character is legally of age. If they look childlike, they are a shota for tagging purposes.

Cute, work-safe images of dolled upped boys should not be tagged as shota. Images of children are rated more strictly; thous, posts with shota content should be rated at least questionable.

Sexual content with pre-adolescent girls should be labeled as loli.
