A lot of my sites are built in wordpress and each post uses tags. In the past, these tags really helped me out on Google, but as I continue to read about the latest update and duplicate content, I'm starting to think that this may have been one of the things that got me.

For example using tags for my posts creates these pages:

http://www.sharonpink.org/tag/sharon-pink-big-boobs/
http://www.sharonpink.org/tag/sharon-pink-big-tits/

And those two pages are almost exactly the same.

So my question is, with the new update in mind, if your Wordpress tags lead to the creation of pages that point to largely the same posts on your site, is that something that would be considered duplicate content?

Hopefully this post will help others as well, since we are dealing with Wordpress and the way it operates and how we have to be mindful of that in light of the latest algo
Seems more like keyword stuffing than duplicate content.
