*'I guess. I'd rather play fantasy dress-up with a well formed male, then a female. But I guess 'good girls' aren't supposed to admit that... We're supposed to be preoccupied with making ourselves more desirable...'

I never of thought of it in that way but after reading your response I'm convinced that this comes closer to the truth than anything else. Most of the women who post their images here (with some notable exceptions) are probably just too embarrassed (timid?) to make the kind of renders you are now making. Making 'desirable' Vickys seems to better keep within the preoccupation you mentioned.

In any event, the upshot to this disdain of the male characters in Poser will continue to result in a darth of male oriented products in the MP. Any merchant who is really doing this for the money will always have to consider that the time spent on making male clothing will come as a loss of revenues compared to having that same time being spent on female clothing.

I don't know which merchant is better prepared to make the sacrifice and make male clothing anyway - the long time established merchant or the novice. I know that with the stuff I've made for M3 making a profit wasn't really the motivation - I just wanted to do it no matter what. I'm sure that will always be the only reason I make male clothing in the future too :)
