Quote - > Quote - > Quote - Again, still doesn't explain why no one's made a free male (that I know of) or why there is comparatively so little free content for males, yet I have downloaded three free females in the last year, four if you count V4WM, and free content for females is essentially infinite.

I guess makers of freebie male content don't get enough adoration, praise, and promises to the blood of firstborn sons?

 

I don't think it's so much about adoration as it is : Use my stuff. 

Like the, "if you make it, they will come" thing just does not seem to hold true and the content creators see that. As mentioned in one form or another before, we are in the grip of a nearly concrete cycle: Creators won't create things people don't seem to want but people can't want things if creators don't create them. 

I rarely post renders. Heck, I've been a member at RDNA for 7 years, I think, and I posted in their galleries for the first time last month. How are you going to know if I use your stuff?

ETA: I mean to say, Yes, vendors are able to create demand. And often do, probably without realizing it.

Based on the forums, I'd say DeviantArt is overwhelming youthful. Kids, in my experience (and again based on the forums there), are often horny, frequently scared of been thought of as homosexual (even when they are homosexual), and/or often excessively prudish when it comes to male nudity.

But come to think of it....

Actually, when I look at soccer uniforms and basketball outfits, and beach wear from the early 1980's, I notice it at once: women's clothing gets skimpier and men's gets longer. If it keeps on like this, the guys will all be wearing hijabs and the girls will be totally nude. So, yeah, it's not just Renderosity...

 

Well, that is a valid argument but here at Renderostiy, at least, we have vendor tags for the gallery and alongside just people mentioning your name, those work with the search engine so if you wanted to know if someone used your product here, you just look yourself up in the gallery.   There's also notices about the number of downloads for your stuff and we used to get messaged about who bought what you sold here (don't know if that still happens), so that you could provide support or include them in a email about an update.   

 

Regardless though, is there room for more males? Yes. Should the current males get more support in the form of morphs and clothing? Yes. Do I see that happening? I know that there are more males on the way - I even have to start collecting my refs to make one - but I don't anticipate lots of support even for existing males anytime soon. Forthcoming males? Who knows? Maybe the next male to release will be the one everybody jumps on board for or maybe he won't . I just hope that when the next figure releases, people rally to him. If they don't he'll just fall to the wayside like every male before him, taking a back seat to the latest female release.
