You want constructive talk about the issue?

The DAZ model was made as a base that can be either male or female.   You identify that as being DEI, which is ridiculous. How many Genesis 9 characters and renders do you see that actually appear gender neutral?  Truth: NOT MANY.

And your comment that it is causing users to switch to Poser is also without merit.  Take a look at the galleries and the marketplace.  What is the ratio of Poser to DAZ renders and products?

Your "issue" is a non-issue. 

Are you this deft?  Geografts can't work as intended; Male bodies still look more feminine and vice versa.  Only selling point of Gen 9 is that you can make GREAT PORTRAIT renders and that is it.

Gen 9 was a disaster just like Gen 1 and that is why they moved to separated meshes after gen 1.  Why would they go back to the VERY THING they tried once before and failed?  Answer: to pander to a NON EXISTENT AUDIENCE that don't exist and yes they are pandering to the 3DX wierdos is why they did this.

You can deny all you want.  This is a fact.  I did a video about this and I even dug deep into who is funding their company and it went back to an ESG/DEI consultancy group.  May not be SBI, or Blackrock, or Vanguard, but it was an ESG/DEI group.

You can take that to the bank.  I'm not arguing this anymore with you when clearly you are part of the problem and would welcome this change with insanity...
