Shop issue

Am I the only one that finds the SHOP an incredibly hard place to navigate while looking for Genesis 9 male content? I'm trying to buy some clothing or hair but I have to go through pages of female stuff that I don't want to see because I'm not looking for female stuff.  Why can't we have a filter that says "MASCULINE" like we do for characters? Am I missing something here? Genesis 8 has a nice store, easy to find items but when it comes to Genesis 9 it's all a damn mess that makes my eyes hurt. Can we get some clarity here?

    Moved to the Commons as it is not a Daz Studio application topic.

    No. Because female content sells better so that's the majority of what exists. And with G9 being a uni-mesh figure, by default there is just more female centered content for it. That's just how it is here.

    I think most arguments about G9 have been overhashed. There's all kinds of discussion about whether people like the shape or bends or whatever, but those things are all at least somewhat subjective.

    But even so, I'll admit that it's objectively the case that categorisation has been diluted, making it harder to dig out stuff that isn't "traditionally feminine" - be that poses that aren't bum-out high-heel poses or clothes that aren't skimpy mini-skirts.

    (That said, I often enough wish I could tell Smart Content to "please show me G8M poses while I have this G8F selected, I don't want pin-up poses for this scene")

    Genesis 9 male content? Funny. Below, find some places to look.

    You could always have an invisible male in the scene too, and that to the selection when browsing poses (or select it alone and use the right-click Show Assets In option to get the poses in the Content Library before reselecting the female)

    Given that loading additional figures isn't exactly quick (any character with a large number of morphs, anyway), I don't really like that much as a work-around.

    You could try the PoserContent website. It's a pretty good search engine for this hobby. Set your Filter Parameters to Genesis 9 Masculine, Clothing, and any other relevant options such as Genre, Theme, etc. I'm in the same boat as you. I just don't use the store's search options much anymore. I've absolutely no use for 90% of the female content available here, and lousy store searches do not help my shopping experience at all. I often find better/accurate results using PoserContent.
