Renderotica

Drafter, I've asked you this before, and you've never answered. Do you use unmorphed figures or do you morph them to your liking? If you morph them, how do you deal with body intersections that result from different body shapes when you apply poses? If you alter the pose, then you're already tweaking poses. Why is this such an issue? I've used GM poses on GF and vice versa, and it usually doesn't take more than a few minutes to get the pose to suit what I'm after. 

I'm seriously asking, how do you deal with poses on morphed characters?

Ok, first let's take the tone of this thread down a notch.

Drafter, you're partially right and I can understand your frustration. There is a lack of quality male/male sets compared to male/female and female/female. If male/male is what you're looking for and not finding it, I'm sure that would be very dissapointing.

I must say I'm a bit offended that you would basically call myself and every other content artist who has not done male/male poses a bigot.

I spend anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks working on my pose packs. I have to stare at the same set of poses for that length of time. If I'm not creatively "aroused" by the subject matter, I'm sure you can understand how that would be a pretty miserable 2 weeks for me.
I have nothing against anyone elses lifestyle, I'm a live and let live kinda guy. Male/male just isn't something I'm into, and I'm sure it's that way for a lot of content creators. If you've had some hateful replies from other content artists, I'm not happy about that either, it's unprofessional and unnecessary.

But your previously posted expectation that all content creators should be making male/male content or they're bigots is both unfair and unrealistic.

That being said, and I say this with complete respect, if you're not finding sets you're looking for, why not try making them?

Seriously.

You've already identified a hole in the market to fill, and you seem passionate about the subject matter, so why not try creating the poses you want and possibly get paid for doing it?
It's not easy to get accepted as a new content artist because there are already a lot of people doing it, but if nobody is doing male/male, there's your foot in the door.

Existing content artists who haven't created for the male/male market probably aren't going to. Probably because they just aren't into that, maybe a few have other issues.
But that doesn't change the landscape.
If you want something that's not available, you may need to make it yourself. If you want to sell it, you'll need to maintain a professional tone and expect setbacks. After all, that's how pretty much every content artist I know got started. We saw something we wanted done differently or wanted something that just wasn't there, so we made it ourselves and then sold it to other people who wanted it too.

Carry on with the discussion, but let's keep a civil tone, please.

I doubt it happened like that. Just like Thunder-3D was offended for the accusation of being a bigot for not making male-male products, mostly it was the vendor was insulted and they probably put him in his place for the insults. If anything, rather than a vendor responding in kind to messages like this, they should report insulting messages to the admins themselves and let them handle it.  Sometimes a timeout is necessary to show some customers this type of behavior is not acceptable.
