I disagree.

Here's a way both could be useful to Tommy.

Tommy has a cumshot category, everything dealing with cum gets dumped in there.

Within the cumshot category there are sites listed that cover creampies, facials, bukkake, etc. Those would be good tags, further categorizing your sites.

Think general, versus specific.
