In the plural alias thread these tags came up.
Shoulder should alias to shoulders, sure, but like Moose said, we already have bare-shoulders, which is more descriptive of any situation in which tagging shoulders would be of any use.
Is there a good reason anyone can come up with for not aliasing the first two to bare_shoulders?

There aren't many posts in shoulder/shoulder, and the tags could potentially be taken to mean just emphasis on the body part like its sibling tags (unlikely, but conceivable)...
Maybe the posts should just be combed over, removing shoulder(s) or replacing it with bare_shoulders as needed.

Pretty much everything on shoulder/shoulders falls under bare shoulders, off shoulder, or shoulder pads. I'm not sure it really needs an emphasis tag.
I removed all the shoulder pad posts from these tags. I'm confused as to when an off shoulder causes a post to need the bare shoulders tag because the posts under the off shoulder tag currently are inconsistently tagged and I don't know if 1 or 2 shoulders are needed.
I tend to use bare_shoulders with either one or two shoulders exposed, if we wanted to establish stricter usage criteria though, I don't mind.
Of the three shoulders I tagged as such two (1 2) were owing to prominent shoulder blades (and one which should have been bare shoulders).
I only usually tag bare shoulders if someone is in a strapless gown or swimsuit.
Ok, I'll go with shinjidude's idea on bare_shoulders even though many posts that should be tagged aren't. After we remove the posts that don't have bare shoulders we can alias them to bare shoulders.
There are some posts under these tags that apply to neither bare shoulders nor off shoulder. Some of those are bare_back and some are just nudity. Another exception is id:616975, which obviously doesn't have bare shoulders has has a hoodie, not an off shoulder.

Just off_shoulder is enough there I'd say.
If someone wants to tag prominent shoulder_blades, then just using that wouldn't seem inappropriate. That said, my own opinion is that people usually tend to ignore the "prominent" part, or define "prominent" as "exists".
