suggest a script to masculinise G9 Fem Poses to G9 Male Poses

Surely some script techie can devise a script to adjust the hip and stance from female to male for Genesis 9 poses... Happy to buy it if it comes into the store.

I'm sure it's possible, but... what defines a feminine pose compared to a masculine pose? 

Once that's defined, I think the rest is easy. Is it a hip Z rotation greater than +/- 10 degrees? A hip X rotation greater than -5 degrees emphasising glutes and their shape? An excessively straight spine, or one curved backwards to emphasise the bust? Delicate (please define) hand gestures? Soft facial expressions? If so, define 'soft'.

Not easy to define, and probably a PC minefield if you do start to define it. Good luck.

I think a better campaign might be to encourage gender neutral poses, ones that are appropriate for both genders. However, that is harder than one might imagine. I thought I had gender neutral vomiting poses (yeah, nice), but when I applied the female version directly to a male character, the female arms were positioned to avoid intrusion into the bust, and looked awkwardly loose/flappy on the male characters, and then some of the female legs were positioned in ways that would hurt male anatomical elements if it were real. All this takes experience to recognise and build into the script. And I confess I did not recognise this until I applied what I thought were gender neutral feminine poses to a male character.

there definitely are differences because of hip waist shoulder proportions in how men and women carry themselves 

I too would have trouble defining them, but can usually tell immediately seeing someone which gender they are from stance alone in spite of how they dress

with some exceptions of course, for various reasons

Men tend to stand in quite different poses than womwn. For example a man will often stand with hands in pockets if he's relaxing, and won't make the same gestures with the hands as a woman would.

The fact that their clothes do actually have functionnal pockets unlike a lot of women's clothes probably plays a part in that

Yup, and men tend not to know what to do with their hands unless they are engaged in some physical activity or gesturing to someone else, so stuffing them in the pockets kind of solves that.

I would think that one's culture has an affect on how the genders move/dress their bodies, along with style of clothing throughout history. And quite simply, biology comes into play. Men want room for their lower regions, while women have been taught to not display that area in a public manner, or even hair, arms, legs, etc... Be a prude in public, a whore in private with your male ... (put in the whatever) for your culture. 

Men also use their hands to hold phones, cigarettes, drinks, books, bags, briefcases, boxes, flowers, and often now, babies. (I sit in a Super Target's coffee shop five days a week and watch folx. And we have a wide range of ethnicities, economic levels, and ages shopping and working at this one.)
