A new subject tag sounds like an excellent idea! So people who are not interested in concultures could set their conlang-L subscription mode to remove posts with the tag "conculture:". (Hint hint, David). If and when that's up and running, I don't think anyone should be particularly miffed when someone begins asking anthro questions like: "What's the difference between matrilineal and patrilineal? What's the difference between monogamy and polygamy? Aren't there different types of polygamy, and if so what are they called? And which ones have you applied to your respective concultures?" Or would conlangers still be ticked by such questions? -Kristian- 8-)
