There are posts tagged trap in which the character doesn't look androgynous at all. takanashi_kotori trap, tieria_erde trap, and namine_ritsu trap are a few examples. In a lot of these posts the character appears 100% female.

I tend to think of trap and androgynous as somewhat different from each other, with trap being very feminine male characters (to where you couldn't really tell at all if it wasn't canonically stated or shown explicitly) while androgynous would be more ambiguous. There's a gray area where both could be tagged.

Then perhaps the implication between reverse_trap and androgynous should be removed?
This.
androgynous, to me, says "can't tell what gender this is."
trap is males who are otherwise very feminine, and reverse trap is the vice-versa.
If it weren't for post #593816 I would have said leave it but that post is masculine enough that it's no longer androgynous.

To expand on this, someone who is androgynous could be a trap, but isn't necessarily, and traps are frequently not androgynous at all (they are completely feminine)
watarase_jun is a completely non-androgynous trap, while kinoshita_hideyoshi is androgynous, and occasionally a trap as well.
Reverse traps are more likely to be androgynous than regular traps, but they still should not have an implication.
